There’s no justification for such behavior, and the criminal mindset is appalling…and terrifying.

Such things simply didn’t happen in certain areas, and now we are inundated with crime reports.

What the heck is going on?

Who are these criminals? Why are they behaving this way?

Hahahah. No. There is a house steps from mine and ***a few blocks from this incident *** that went on the market for 2 million a couple of days ago and already has multiple bids

I am certain that my own son has never shot at anybody, nor has he ever spoken to anybody in the neighborhood who shoots at people or has been shot at themselves


Don’t conflate the neighborhood with “students who may attend JR.” Not the same.

That said I stopped using that CVS for my prescriptions years ago. The writing was on the wall.

Schools can send kids back to their IB school if they have disciplinary or attendance issues. They should make better use of this.

That would just shift the problem. If anything they should be sending kids with severe disciplinary and attendance problems to specialized programs, not another regular school.

the program should be prison

Prison is not the answer. Some people think it is but you are creating a violent criminal by doing this. If you address the issues that teenagers face: poverty, poor parenting etc. Society could solve the problem. Throwing teens away in prison just creates more problems.

To the contrary. Removing disruptive and violent kids from the school and neighborhood teaches that kid that there is no impunity for violence. And it keeps the classroom calm and organized for the kids who actually want to be there and learn (and I am not talking exclusively about white kids).

Labeling them “criminals” when they have not even been identified or questioned by the authorities is beyond offensive.

What happened to “innocent until proven guilty” ??

I seriously hope that was sarcasm

Why do you assume this kid had behavior issues? They usually don’t let people with severe issues participate in sports. You all have to remember that the people who killed him are likely his neighbors. Some kid in PG county got stabbed for his shoes last week, this literally could have been over anything.

For anyone who has a child in this class -there is a long history going back to Deal WRT to behavior
People are being polite here

What do you mean?

What do you think they mean?

If I knew what they meant, I wouldn't ask. How do we even know that Jackson Reed kids were responsible? Separately, there is nothing that suggests the deceased had any behavioral problems. So, yeah, it's kind of unclear. If there a behavioral problems with kids in the class, is the implication that kids in the class did this? If so, this also means that kids in the class are now attending school with a murderer. Is that you are saying? So, yeah, some clarification would be helpful.

You sound really naive but I will spell it out. The implication is that the deceased was a rough kid involved in crew gripes and got shot. If he was an innocent bystander we would know that by now.

And that seems to be pure speculation. The kid was a football and lacrosse player and received countless accolades from teachers, coaches and colleagues. I don’t like seeing people maligned based on unsubstantiated “implications.” Either present facts or stop smearing the deceased.

The perpetrators were likely not from JR. They had targeted Brady before. The question is why was he targeted? Seemed like he had a bright future.

Everything that is being said about this kid and prior issues is just rumor. My kid told me it was about some disagreement at that moment where the perpetrator decided to shoot and probably didn’t even know him.

Why was he hanging out in the alley?

What’s wrong with hanging out in an alley?

I mean, what are you trying to imply with this question PP ?

Maybe the same reason hundreds of other kids do. If that’s what he was doing. My kid walks through that lot all the time, it’s a shortcut to Dominos and so many other things.
The only thing that is public is that he was shot behind 4500 Wisconsin Ave. Everything else is rumor.

It is literally not a shortcut to anywhere. I don’t want to get all geometry on you a$$, but the two (non-hypotenuse) sides of a right triangle are exactly as long as the two other non-hypotenuse “sides” available in this instance.

The alley is only a shortcut to the dumpsters, both literally and figuratively. (Maybe that should be a sign hung in the alley…)

Why? What could you possibly gain from talking utter BS about such a tragic event? it's not just 'a' shortcut, it is 'the' shortcut in the neighborhood. I was there a matter of minutes after the shooting happened - I watched this poor young man being loaded into the ambulance. Why was I, a middle aged white guy there ? Because it's a shortcut between WholeFoods and CVS - two businesses with among the highest footfall in the neighborhood and I live in the building opposite. I use it multiple times a week. My daughter attended JR - she used it almost daily. As it happens, I was on my way to collect blood pressure meds to mitigate the utter bile that people like you send out into the world.
