[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't believe I have to explain this here but Montgomery Mall, just like any other establishment in the DMV area, is not in a bubble that can't be accessed by the "bad" people. Anywhere can be reached with a car, bus, or metro.  :roll:  If you want a guarantee that nothing bad will happen to your kids, then tell them to stay home and play Roblox all day. [/quote]

Grew up in Bethesda. No one "accessed" Bethesda by bus or metro or car to commit crimes then. Things have changed. To pretend otherwise is craziness. People move to areas so they can feel comfortable their kids won't be jumped. They don't want them to be inside playing roblox all day. They want a safe community where kids can be on their own, safely. That used to be the case in Bethesda. Now it's not. Buses and metro and car access is not what's changed.[/quote]

That's an interesting definition of "people" you have there.[/quote]

Grew up in Rockville in the 80s and 90s and yes, we absolutely took the bus to Montgomery Mall and downtown Bethesda. What's funny is that there were Bethesda kids who we encountered (BCC kids) who actually behaved worse- did drugs, stole from stores, etc. What's crazy is that you think you moving to the bubble of Bethesda gives you ownership of the mall. It's a public space and anyone, good or bad, can access it.  [/quote]

We should welcome people who jump our teens to steal their shoes and air pods. They belong there, too.

This is why the left is a joke to many people these days.[/quote]
