Really? more lazy than a 7 word reply?

Were you born in DC like me? Have you been here for decades? I am way better informed than you (almost certainly). Can you tell me when home rule started? Without looking it up?

I was born at Providence Hospital and unlike you, I am not willing to settle for any lazy workarounds. The notion of retrocession is not viable (Maryland doesn’t want it, end of story) and even if it were, it’s a half-assed, watered down solution. The fact that an actual (alleged) dc resident is in here pushing for it is mind blowing stupid.

that enough words for you or do you need more?
