[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like how the MoCoPGNews person has decided to stop tweeting videos of fights because it just encourages fights and the video-ing thereof. It would be nice if they had decided this sooner, but better late than never.[/quote] Actually, he claims the principals of Paint Branch, Kennedy and the PG high schools he posted were reporting his account, which also factored into his decision to stop the fight videos. I think it's a catch 22. MCPS's broken and toxic culture thrives on its cloud of secrecy, so exposing the reality of the school environment informs parents who are ignorant and oblivious and puts pressure on MCPS to react and respond instead of shoving things under the rug like it normally does. But it does also recreate the WorldStar Hiphop phenomenon where kids who are traumatized, hurting and in need of attention do bad things to get noticed in really permanent and public ways that aren't good for them in the long run.[/quote]
