snip... In 2014, the Obama administration issued a Dear Colleague guidance that threatened school districts whose disciplinary measures showed a disproportionately greater number of minority students affected could be subject to investigation by the Departments of Justice and Education, regardless of whether the behaviors leading to the discipline were unacceptable.
Snip... At RCI, journalist Paul Sperry reviewed documents related to the Broward County Public Schools PROMISE program, the aim of which, he says, was to allow thousands of troubled, often violent, students to commit crimes without legal consequence in the name of saving minority and low-income students from the school-to-prison pipeline.
In place of suspensions, expulsions, and arrests for delinquent and violent behavior, the policy called for interventions such as teen court and restorative justice.
The Florida Legislature has instructed school districts that zero-tolerance policies are not intended to be rigorously applied to petty acts of misconduct and misdemeanors, including, but not limited to, minor fights or disturbances, says the PROMISE agreement, signed onto by the school district and law enforcement.
In 2015, during a panel of the National Urban League Conference, Runcie said Broward County Public Schools had the determination and tenacity to become the national leader in closing the achievement gap, and we will get this done

MSM will not trace it back to the origins...Obama, Holder and the leftist, racist plans to decimate our schools and hold people in fear.

This guy has no business being an LEO.
The Miami Herald and FOX have obtained the dispatch communications from that day.
A supervisor ordered the Broward officers to not engage and instead form a perimeter.
Supervisor is a woman whose previous job on the force was in the civil division serving subpoenas and injunctions.
Turns out Peterson was following orders.
legalinsurrection.com has a story on it with a handy timeline
Coddling those engaged in bad behavior is a much better guarantee of their future criminality than holding them to the same standards as everyone else would be. It’s racist when those on the left pretend minority children are incapable of behaving in a civilized manner. I suspect the left’s policies even contributes to thugs getting shot by cops - a lifetime habit of being combative with no consequences is hard to break.

We may respond to this by calling it insanity. It isn’t, it is TYRANNY.
Spot on, Pollster1!
WHERE IS THE DEMAND FOR FEDERAL AND STATE INVESTIGATIONS ????
Theyre DELIBERATELY missing the point Its not guns or the NRA It’s what they don’t want you to know
Its policies which had cops standing outside while killing was going on, or allowing some nut getting a gun the FBI knew he wasnt suppose to... Plus a whole raft of other stuff
STOP SPREADING THE CABLE SWILL MILLS POISON
DEMAND HONEST HEARINGS FROM THE FED..AG AND FLORIDA STATE

Sanctuary for Thuggery is what they have.
Throw a chair at teacher. Detention for you Niko!
Bring/smoke pot at school. Scolding for you Dude!
Fight in the hall. Sit in the corner Jamal!
Steal the teacher’s purse. Go to principal’s office, Chandra.
Vandalize the Science Lab. Detention for you, Dimwit.
Threaten to kill everyone and blow-up the school. Skip lunch Niko!
This is about bureaucratic polices from the Obama Regime.
Leftism Kills.
Yes but the real story is how the criminal was not detained the other thirty times, in order to make the numbers look good for the federal oversight teen crime
“Leftism kills”
Excellent, concise, perfect way to put it.
Permission to quote you?
I swear, why are the lame brained Obozo lieutenants still running President Trump’s administration? This is really getting old, whether it is in the Justice Department or the Education Department. Betsy DeVos, you need to either straighten up the place or, preferably, shut it down. It is clear as it can be that the ‘Promise’ program is just another underhanded Obozo plan to weaken and destroy America with the socialist teachers’ unions facilitating in lock step. It is this sort of upside down school administration policy that lies at the core of run amuck shootings and the wide scale student social unrest we see in this country.
It truly is insane that many of Obama’s scum administration is still presently sitting pretty under the Trump Administration. Furthermore, in regards to law and order and education, two of the weaker links picked by President Trump are De Vos and Sessions.
This is what they call SOCIAL JUSTICE! allowing minority people of color get away with criminal activity and not be prosecuted because of the color of their skin, a parallel to AFFIRMATIVE ACTION and slowly coming up from behind GENDER EQUALITY, where woman of color have precedent over all others in the job place. We must end all programs across the board in all agencies from the Obama era now!
This list includes -ALL STUDENT MISBEHAVIOR and these non-violent infractions. It’s no wonder these “children” turn to crime for a full time or part time living.
1. Disrupting or Interfering with class
2. Fighting in a public place (This is non violent?)
3. Theft if less than $300
4. Vandalism damages < $1,000
5. Disorderly conduct
6. Trespassing, Loitering or Prowling
7. Criminal Mischief
8. Gambling
9. Harrassment or Threats
10. Alcohol -all related offenses
11. Possession of Cannabis
12. Possession of drug Paraphernalia
13. Obstructing Justice without Violence
And we see the results.

Ignoring the law and FL statues on criminal conduct paved the way for Cruz to become a cold blooded killer both in and out of school.
What about the other millions of Florida teenagers who live outside of Broward. They have to OBEY the law. The state is running DUAL forms of justice.
Sanctuary for Broward and OBEY for the rest the state. It’s a constitutional legal conflict within the state.
BSO responded to at least 45 calls to Cruzs home -included incidents in which Cruz held a gun up to his moms head (a felony),... imbibed gasoline,.... cut himself, etc.
From this we learn that the Broward NAACP sanctuary school policy extends to the home as well as the school?
In Broward you can hold a gun to another’s head and not get arrested. O.J. did less in Vegas.
So when an Orlando/Tampa/Miami punk holds his mama at gunpoint, he should just tell the police that they cant arrest him.
Sheriff Israel, the Top-Cop in Florida, whose running the largest sheriffs office in the nation says, Its just fine with our PROMISE program. do as you d@mn well please cuz you’re under 18!
The legal ramifications for the rest of the juveniles in the state are huge. Florida is running a dual juvenile justice system.
Ask those teachers that have to deal with those unruly “animals”. race doesn’t make a bit of difference.. Good think I was never a teacher, I probably wouldn’t have lasted a full day.
I wonder if we are finally, FINALLY beginning to see that SOME things kids really learn at HOME, with a MOM and a DAD...and the core principles of life, are not taught in schools, but in the homes of an adult Male and an adut Female, each doing the mystical, simple job of forming good life habits.
