Yeah, a criminal record would sure show these kids the right path in life...

What in the hell is wrong with you people.

Hyperbole much?

Kids in DC barely get a slap on the wrist for carjacking. ^ I'm guessing your kids were involved if you're reacting like that to "a warning?" " Anything?"

Tenleytown used to be a nice place to sit on the deck with the family at Guapos or drop the kid off at tae kwon doe. Now I drive instead of walk through and avoid the business and the general area unless I absolutely "have to". Metro at school start or finish? Heck no.
So much for Main Street USA.

I recognize that people's perceptions of their own personal safety vary, so I guess I'll just say I have not felt at all compelled to avoid Tenleytown and/or the Metro around when school is starting or letting out.

I’m sorry- what exactly do you think is the appropriate thing to for people who are actively engaged in assault and battery?

How would YOU get them on the right path? What’s your answer?

Didn't lead with warning. Led with arrested.

Detention? In school suspension maybe?

Definitely not arresting them and putting them in jail.

Sure. I've sat on Guapos terrace for a nice snack to hear the F bombs flying as the kids walk by, the pot, it's kind of dirty, and then I know that the local businesses are being robbed on the daily. I don't feel unsafe. I just feel like, nah.

This is the welcoming Ward 3 that Matt Frumin promised you. Promises made, promises kept!

It was 2 kids fighting and a couple hundred cheering them on. But way to exaggerate the situation!

I still find that pretty bothersome. Hundreds of kids cheering and watching two kids kick the sh** out of each other? Just another feather in the cap for DC!

It's high school. I'm not sure what you expect. Any time there is a fight, it's always "fight fight fight" and groupthink by the high school mob. Not a DC thing. A high school thing.

That doesn't happen in well run high schools.

After school clean up detail. Scrub walls, mop floors, scrape gum off desks, pull weeds, etc

This. I remember this happening at Stuyvesant in the 90s. Not often. But it did.

This is not an isolated incident. Getting reported in the Post means for once it's not being excused/swept under the rug. Oh wait, the police tried that. But now it's gotten publicity.

well now the police and even Fox say that there were not 300 kids but maybe 50 and less than 10 were involved in the "altercation"
