“Dear PoPville,
This morning at 8:20, 10 uniformed national guard troops and 3 uniformed MPD spent 25 minutes harassing teenagers waiting for the school bus. This is on 20th and O Street, NW
Half the kids eventually seemed to leave to find a different bus stop and the police and the National Guard followed them.”
