Went to the Capitol in 2011. Definitely not what I was expecting. Police going every direction with sirens on. Large groups of what looked to be gang members out in the open a few blocks from Capitol hill. (I grew up in a rough neighborhood, I don't think every group of black people is a gang, just saying.)
