Does This Bench Make You Horny, Baby?

Residents of the neighborhood near New Hampshire and South Dakota avenues in Northeast are torn between wanting to support a memorial to the victims of a Metro crash and wanting to prevent an increase in crime and sex in their park. There's already enough of the latter happening in full view of people trying to enjoy the park on more PG terms, but if the benches planned for the memorial show up residents worry sexytime would increase. "How would they feel if they have benches dedicated to their families and then they have kids lying across them having sex?" asked one resident.
