Washington, D.C. Mayor Defends Ban on Dancing at Weddings
2021-05-06
[NR] Washington, D.C., Mayor Muriel Bowser on Wednesday defended her decision to prohibit standing and dancing at weddings after her order, which she says aims to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, was the subject of much backlash from residents and media.

Asked by CNN, "What good is a wedding without dancing?" Bowser replied, "I think there’s a lot of good to a wedding, like people starting off their lives together and doing it in a safe way and not doing it in a way that puts themselves or their guests in danger."

#7  In 2021, carjacking in DC skyrocketed, reaching more than four times the level of the previous year. Following an tragic attack in which a Pakistani Uber driver named Mohammad Anwar was killed as the result of a brazen carjacking, Bowser released a tweet explaining that carjackings were a crime of opportunity, giving the impression that Anwar was responsible for his own death.[94] Bowser later deleted the tweet, claiming that it was scheduled to go out before the death, but did not apologize or immediately offer any condolences to Anwar's family or condemnation of his killers, who are black, sparking backlash and accusations of racial bias.

#6  Seems like you could point out "no dancing" was a common thing in bible belt states and they'd go the other so fast they'd break an ankle.
