Unless it’s helpful for the public to know I just don’t think you should post that on this type of forum. Seemingly noisy and insensitive to the family.

How is this forum different than Bethesda Beat and their facebook post, or the countless other media outlets reporting on this?

NP. It's an MCPS issue and helpful because bus stop safety is really important and there was a similar incident a few years ago wasn't there?

Journalism is one thing, Facebook and this forum are another and are not “reporting.”

If it’s helpful, but this post was not started to be helpful, rather prying and insensitive.

I think it's important for people to be aware that this is all too common.

- someone who was hit by a car going to a bus stop several years ago

Making people aware is important, but it seemingly wasn’t put in here for that purpose. Op asked if anyone has info and that’s intrusive.

So you must also disapprove of discussing when guns are found in schools, or the Magruder shooting, or the sexual assault case in Damascus, or the previous hit-and-run with the high school student.

People learn about stories through journalism and come to places like here to discuss them.

I believe poster is disapproving of the intrusive nature of the post. It does come off that way and I don’t know if I was a live one that I would want someone seeking info in such a noisy way.

There’s literally no info on the link. Was the driver at fault? Was the kid at fault? It’s a pointless post.

It’s pointless, inappropriate, and noisy.
