Road closures 12/28 Burke to DC
Posted by: hoocoodanode ()

I just got this alert. Passing it along in case anyone will be in the vicinity tomorrow.

United States Park Police Officer will be laid to rest on Wednesday December 28, 2011 at 10:00 am.
Church of the Nativity
6400 Nativity Lane
Burke, VA 22015

This funeral will have substantial impact on traffic in the Burke, VA area and roads leading into downtown Washington, DC.
Closures will be “rolling” when appropriate but travelers are advised to consider alternate routes. The route is as follows:
Exit the church making right turn on Old Keene Mill Rd
Left on Fairfax County Parkway
Left on ramp to I 395 north HOV
Left on exit ramp to Washington Blvd/VA Rt 27
Washington Blvd/VA Rt 27 to Memorial Bridge
Across Memorial Bridge into Washington, DC at the Lincoln Memorial
South on 23rd Street on the south side of the Lincoln Memorial
Left turn eastbound Independence Avenue to Maine Ave
Maine Ave to East Basin Dr heading towards the Jefferson Memorial
South on Ohio Dr towards Hains Point
Right turn west onto Buckeye Dr and past US Park Police Headquarters
Right turn onto Ohio Dr along Potomac River, across Inlet Bridge,
through West Potomac Park heading back towards the Lincoln Memorial
Left onto Ohio Drive/Rock Creek Parkway behind Lincoln Memorial to make
ramp back onto Memorial Bridge returning into Virginia.
The US Park Police anticipates that the procession will take about 1 ½ hours.

He bought the farm trying to rescue someone. Nothing need be said.

Niggah, puh-leeze...we had a Puerto Rican woman who worked with children who was killed in a single car accident 2 weeks ago that was clubbed...CLUBBED on this forum.

Mind you...I'm not advocating flaming this corpse or any corpse on this forum, but your logic is flawed because I've seen better dead people flamed for less.

Not to mention...there's nothing on the OP's post that suggested he died trying to save someone.

And you will notice that 1) none of the regulars made any comments about that particular incident 2) the baiting from the anonymous trolls that came out of the woodwork, 3) the thread died relatively quickly (especially in comparison to some of the more infamous FFXU death threads).

No, but a quick Google search will show what did happen. Looks like he had a heart attack trying to rescue somebody who jumped from the Key Bridge.

He did die trying to rescue someone who jumped off the Key Bridge. Remember, karma is a bitch. This is a reminder to the flamers.

Oh ok, nevermind..."Burke Resident" has thrown down the all-powerful "karma is a bitch" line. According to Fairfax Underground's by-laws that clearly trumps any corpse flame posts especially when uttered on a Wednesday...
