[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Right before the Giant across from Wootton closed we said our goodbyes to the cashiers. They mentioned that the Wootton kids would come in everyday at lunch and after school and steal hundreds of dollars worth of merchandise. So, they are not all angels.[/quote]

Perfect hearsay.[/quote]
but repeating that there were two gang related gun incidences at RM when the police said there was only one, and neither were gang related, is not hearsay?[/quote]

I’m an RM parent.  The police did not say there were not two gun related incidents.  They said there was on incident in which the individual was found with a gun on them and one in which the police did not locate the gun.  I was listening to the police scanners as it happened.  The students saw the gun (and the principal acknowledged that the students were circulating photos of what appeared to be a gun), but the individuals ran off into the woods between the school and the apartment building.  The police circled around the apartment building but did not find them, at least in the hours i was listening.  It seems to me likely the kid had a gun and either tossed it in the woods or stashed it in one of the apartments.  They were carefully worded comminciwtions from the school and MCPD.  I don’t have any knowledge as to whether or not they were gang related.  I think people made assumptions that teen boys running around with guns were likely gang affiliated but I don’t know what the correlation is there.  [/quote]

I don't really understand what difference it makes if these events were gang related or not. If your kid is shot dead, would you find comfort knowing the killer was not a gang member?? Gun doesn't care who pulls the trigger. [/quote]

There have been 0 gang-related incidents at an MCPS in over a decade, but some people love to fearmonger despite the lack of any credible evidence. [/quote]

That is completely untrue.  MCPS doesn't keep track of 'gang-related' incidents because it would make certain schools look bad.  However, ask anyone in the MCPD and they will tell you that Montgomery County and MCPS most definitely has a gang problem.  And, some of the incidents that occur at school (drug-related, usually) involve gang members.  [/quote]

Give it up. That poster is completely tone deaf. [/quote]
DP.. can you cite a reliable source that states we have a gang problem in MCPS?  I'm totally serious.[/quote]

kids running around with loaded gun and knives not enough? [/quote]
You think every kid with a gun or knife is involved in a gun?

You think this Asian kid is in a gang? An honor roll student.. Is he in the math gang?

Sorry , that should state "You think every kid with a gun or knife is involved in a gang" not gun.[/quote]
Whitman must be so dangerous since there was a knife-wielding Churchill kid running around the parking lot. It means these W's are hotbeds of gang activity!!! OMG![/quote]
