RSS FeedNational Police Week 2016 Events Start In Earnest Tonight
National Police Week begins tonight with the candlelight vigil taking place on the National Mall between 4th and 7th Streets NW. Local denizens are likely to see police walking the neighborhood with black striped shields in remembrance of fallen officers. If you haven’t been to the vigil, it is free and open to all. It is a striking event that we recommend witnessing at least once. Other events take place through Monday, May 16.
The website for National Police Week is here and the schedule is here.

I personally love the events like “illegal parking in bus stops and bike lanes” and “getting belligerently drunk in public” and “walking through the metro emergency gates because flashing a police badge from Peoria should mean free metro rides”.
the events have gotten a lot better in terms of neighborhood impact over the years. a number of events are now in SW. but, it’s true that visiting police should be respectful of the local area.
