"I've heard a few posters suggesting that gang-bangers were pulling drive-bys, which I think is preposterous. Gangs in their Crip/Blood incarnation have moved East, but they are still not strong enough outside SE DC to pin all violence on them."

I completely agree. I have prosecutorial experience in the DC area and this is correct. This isn't a gang situation. (Nor are the victims gang victims, nor is the area a gang area. P.S. In DC, we call 'em "crews.")
