Posting rules
- Report, don't confront. If it's an emergency, call 911 — not Marion Post.
- No naming or accusing individuals. Describe what happened, not who you think did it.
- No "suspicious person" profiling — descriptions based on race, ethnicity, or "looking out of place" are removed.
- No vigilantism, threats, or calls to take matters into your own hands.
- Scam and fraud warnings are welcome — they protect neighbors without targeting a person.
