When I tried googling it I found this Post article from 1978
https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/local/1978/11/13/drug-raids-disturb-rhythm-of-campus/bd24ae4c-e72f-40b5-a88e-6054a1cec658/ |
Everyone knows Whitman is a hotbed of gang activity. I hear MCPD is looking set up a gang task force there. |
Did you hear this at the Takoma Park Co-op? |
Nice, reading the paper was enjoyable back then! ...But while the raids represent little more than a vague hubbub on the periphery of everyday life, the rhythm of the school day is now slightly out of kilter. |
Not much has changed since then. Whitman and Churchill have always been hotbeds of gang and drugs. It is just now harder to cover up and sweep them under the rugs with the presence of cellphones and social media |
The point was - it wasn't covered up, or swept under a rug, there were newspapers writing articles about it!!! |
But most were swept under the rugs, got big shot lawyers to get things dismissed or disappeared. |
Yeah you say that...but where's the evidence? ![]() |
Evidence of what? |
Ycdrinat. |
You're way behind the times. With all the long-time racial tensions and recent knifings that's a done deal. These schools have gone downhill. It's really sad. |
You're thinking of a different school. |
No, it was Whitman. A Whitman student stabbed a Churchill student. W on W crime |
