@RapidResponse47@AGToddBlanche My teenage daughter just got back from a school trip to DC. Roamed around the city and rode the metro without care. She said there were tons of police and national guard everywhere. Thanks for making her feel safe to enjoy the city!
My 17 yo daughter went on a school trip to DC this summer. She is generally risk adverse and won't venture out. For 5 days and nights she ventured in and around DCwith and without the chaperone. They used the metro extensively. When I asked if she felt safe she said "yes, it was clean, very little homeless, and a ton of police and national guard visible. Thank you! Signed, a grateful father!
