My guess is that the commuter bus goes straight to DC, right?

ANOTHER reason OC and CC should be allowed in the Nation's Capital... and city with one of the highest murder rates in the country for over 20 years.

Gee... gun control REALLY works there, right?:banghead::banghead::banghead:

Interesting. I grew up in the same area I live in now, but all though my young days I always spent a lot of time around that mall (since it was nicer than springfield mall back then). I haven't been back in the mall since I found their anti-gun policy, but I still spend a lot of time in that area of woodbridge. I always carry.

I lived in Woodbridge a few years ago. I lived in an apartment complex for 1 year and received 2 notices that there had been armed robberies in the parking lot. We also had our dumpster tagged with MS13 once.
