New York Mayor Bill de Blasio unveiled his plan to decrease police presence in the city's schools on Thursday.
New York, NY New York Mayor Bill de Blasio has announced a plan to decrease police presence in the citys schools by limiting the situations in which law enforcement will be allowed to respond to matters that arise on school grounds.
De Blasio unveiled his plan on Thursday, flanked by Schools Chancellor Richard Carranza, WABC reported.
According to the mayor and school officials, police have historically issued too many citations to Hispanic and black children for crimes theyve committed.
"Police presence in schools and a zero-tolerance disciplinary approach make students feel like criminals in their own classrooms," Education Policy Center Director Johanna told WABC.
Under de Blasios new policy, New York Police Department (NYPD) officers must avoid citing or arresting students whenever possible for so-called low level law violations such as disorderly conduct, marijuana possession, and vandalism, WABC reported.
Students can only be arrested on school grounds for offenses that occurred off school property in cases of sex offenses, felonies, and crimes where there is an immediate risk of escape or where the perpetrator is apprehended in hot pursuit, according to the policy.

Worst mayor ever.
Surely they have security guards at the schools. If there are problems, surely the guards will call the police, right?
True that!
Just let the kids and and weld the doors shut. Problem solved.
>A.K.A. DeBlasio's freakshow regime is wrecking the city.
Up next...total anarchy.
Cue “The Warriors” theme music.
The very moment that you think that NOBODY COULD BE THAT STUPID, HE PROVES YOU WRONG.......SIGH.....
Telling bad adults and kids when they will have more time to rampage.
Mass shooting in 3 ... 2 ...
I honestly believe liberals are insane, or have some mental issues
What we have here is a sanctuary school policy.
I fear we will soon see utter chaos brought on by this progressive policy
Patience dear comrade.
All in due course.
Maybe that Parkland cop will be on his advisory commission for school safety.
School shootings are good for the Democrat Party agenda.
No need for any "false flag". Just make the conditions for it to be likely.
Gun Free Zones now also Cop Free Zones? What could possibly go wrong?
And blaming zerotolerance policies. Put in place by liberal Democrats. You know ... morons!
Good point.../s Since, probably, only about 50% of the governments students are criminals, the other 50% should not have to be afraid of the police... Snicker...
If I had a White kid in a New York City school, I would get the hell out, they have a license to kill now.
Black and hispanic students will be so happy they there will never be another crime in a nyc school house..........
The first teacher that gets mugged by a student (which will probably have occurred by 8 AM on the first day of school) should sue.
