ACPD Increasingly Punitive Towards Hipsters, Homeless, Minorities



Hi Yupette,

I will soon be retiring as a member of a local Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) because I am seeing too much punitive behavior by the Arlington Police Department directed towards Hipsters, the Homeless, and Minorities in Arlington. I don't want to continue to be any part of that.

Consequently I advise everyone to not attend any event or patronize any bar or restaurant, festival, pub crawl, anything, in the Ballston-Rosslyn Corridor, most immediately upcoming NCAA basketball championship events. These events are a win-win for Arlington's Cowboy Police (only a few of whom live in Arlington) - they get tens of millions in overtime for providing security services to the bars, restaurants, pub crawls, and they get to beat up on Urban Hipsters, who they despise.

Arlington's Cowboy Police also hate Arlington's Homeless and Minorities who are poor and non-trendy, and have little disposable income. ACPD is becoming more punitive about arresting hipsters who are over the limit for alcohol consumption and minorities who possess and use small amounts of marijuana.

Oh, regarding Arlington's new Chief of Police, he's commonly referred to around ACPD as "Murray the Schlep" for his many promotions over the years based on assignments and activities that had nothing to do with policing.

I'm an Iraq War Veteran and I'm outraged about how the Local Authorities allow the War Memorial to be trashed every weekend.

People...stay away from the B-R Corridor this weekend. Pub crawls, big sports events, etc., are nothing more than "overtime opportunities" for ACPD employees who hate hipsters.

Yeah, the more DC and MD relax marijuana laws the more punitive ACPD and Commonwealth's Attorney become about marijuana.

True. ACPD and Commonwealth's Attorney's Office HATE Urban Hipsters.

Why should the Cowboy Corporals on ACPD bother studying for the Sargeant's exam? They get paid $100,000+ per year doing what they love most - beating up on the Homeless and the Hipsters.

"Choose Your Ride"? ACPD followed an intoxicated person home last weekend and arrested her in her home for Public Intoxication based on hearsay reports that she was intoxicated.

DON'T DRIVE INTO THE BALLSTON-ROSSLYN CORRIDOR THIS WEEKEND, OR ANY WEEKEND. YOU MAY BE STOPPED AND ARRESTED FOR ANY REASON, OR NO REASON.

Thank You Jay, Barbara, Walter, Chris, and Mary for planning the New Urbanist Zoo with Non-Residents who will never have to suffer the consequences of New Urbanism.

Commonwealth's Attorney and Circuit Court Clerk couldn't qualify to be a Parking Meter Attendant in Arlington.

Oh, you don't like fresh, vibrant Clarendon with the police chasing hipsters all weekend every weekend?

You can always move to the beautiful unspoiled Shenandoah Valley.

It gets worse. ACPD is making apartment and condo residents who complain about noise from nearby bars and restaurants buzz them into their apartment and condo buildings to take a complaint and then the police conduct a warrantless search of the entire building.

Does anyone know what the total cost for police, fire, and ems overtime is just for the B-R corridor for weekends, holidays, and festivals?

War Memorial is uncluttered because I visit it every Monday to pick up the broken glass and plastic beer cups.

Go to the ArlNow blog and ask about overtime, it's run by and for County employees.

Yes. Arlington Police are becoming more intrusive and more punitive. Pub crawls are the pretext.

'Cowboy Corporals' is correct. If you awarded them a promotion to Sargeant based on years experience they wouldn't accept it because they enjoy making tons of overtime with no responsibilities beyond court days.

Again, we're only in Year 14 of the Thirty Year War on Terrorism. Wait 10 years.

I hold Barbara Favola, Chris Zimmerman, Mary Hynes, Walter Tejada, and Jay Fisette responsible for the B-R Mess.

Also because it's a 40 mile one-way schlep to 1425 N. Courthouse Road from Ashburn.

DES and Fire and EMS also collect major league overtime from hipster events.

ACPD Cowboy Corporals beating up the Homeless? Ask Arlington Fire and EMS who respond to "Homeless Person Injured, Police on the Scene" dispatches.

Last night more of the same in Clarendon.

Only about a month until the summer interns start arriving.

Meanwhile, the major league pimps, hoes, and drug dealers get a season's pass from ACPD.

Who provide information to this blog about the rotten ACPD? Maybe honest employees who are fed-up.

S. 23rd Street strip was a major alcohol-related enforcement zone last night.

So you should stay away from the S. 23rd - Jeff Davis Highway area.

Time for a dozen ACPD employees to follow Chief Scott into retirement, starting with Murray J. Farr.

Please tell me the locstion of any other city, county, town that would allow a junk police cruiser / junk taxicab to be permanantly installed in front of its war memorial?

Anyone has to be completely ignorant and/or really stupid to have anything to do with Arlington County.

Yeah...Arlington's decision makers either don't live here or are outta here within 5 years.

Yes, Summer interns begin arriving in a month...time to starching for a quiet Summer vacation home rental (with option to buy) in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley.

Trailer Court Trash in Caroline County wouldn't allow a junk Crown Victoria to be parked in their trailer court.

Local Media that have no economic presence in Arlington apart from publication distribution make huge profits from advertising Arlington as a Party Zone.

ACPD also gives a free season pass to SUV Soccer Parents who text while driving their third generation yupsters to school, 20 miles over the limit and running stop signs.

My residential neighborhood on Arlington Ridge is a shortcut between Clarendon and Aurora Highlands, so the cops zoom back and forth all night arresting hipsters.

Hipster Biksters also get a Ride Reckless season's free pass from ACPD.
