A suspect was arrested on the scene.”

  It’s not like shutting a place down Tim’s stab bees into decent people.

Wasn’t there a previous stabbing incident here?

This town seems to be getting really stabby and shooty! Are we just getting more information?

I’m moving to Asheville!

  Given the clientele here this should come as no surprise. It’s not indicative of DC as a whole.

  In the last 40 years it’s never been less stabby and shooty than it is today, so most likely it just has to do with the spread of information via the Internet (blogs and social media).

    January had 14 homicides, one of the largest monthly totals in recent years. Hopefully it’s an outlier.

  It’s not an addition. It’s the power source for the trolly line.

There should be a “One Stabbing” rule for DC bars/clubs. One stabbing and you’re shutdown.

  Would this apply to other businesses? Say schools, hotels, office buildings, restaurants? By this line of argument – that people are responsible for the actions of others – I say that since most shootings happen on the streets and in public, the DC government should be closed.

Grand opening…….grand closing!!!

Macombo Lounge had a similar situation. Person stabbed & killed a month or so ago. Already back open! Same clientele. Same issues.

Not really Macombo is a titty bar. But it sounds like when you say clientele, you don’t mean gentlemens club patrons. Why dont you just come out with whatever presumptive racist statement you were going to make. After all, the complexion of DC is changing, right?

  what’s racist about these comments? that’s right, nothing. if a clientele is stabby, that’s a fact, not racism.

  I’m a life long resident and we both know that 99% of the shootings and stabings in DC are crimes with a non white perpetrator, and usually a non white victim. Sorry to burst your bubble but this has nothing directly to do with the hoards of young rich white people moving into the city and its changing complexion.

    You know darn well that 99% of the shootings and stabbings aren’t committed by a “non-white perpretrator”. You can’t find a single statistic to back that up. FOH anonymous race troll.

      a quick google search suggests there may be more than anecdotal evidence to the statement above. not 99%, but close enough for concern.
