DUH!
But, no! It's all the NRA's fault! It's my fault for owning guns! It's Trump's fault! Etc....
As long as ‘students’ attend, the money rolls in.
K-12 in many locales is nothing more than daycare. Very expensive daycare.
The school board and various school officials need to be indicted for manslaughter. No more snowflake coddling. Put them in juvie or prison as necessary.
Start by charging the Superintendent of Schools, the chief Administrator of Socia; Services, the County Sheriff and the SAIC FBI with Criminal Negligence.
This whole Ant-Gun Campaign is a shiny object to distract from the real problem - bureaucrats who don’t want to deal with real problems.
If they can’t stop this man with the paper trail he has, then no one is safe.
A close look at that idiotic policy raises a few obvious questions.
1. Was the Obama administration saying black students were being accused and reported for infractions they did not commit?
2. Or were infractions committed by white students being ignored and never reported?
3 Or, was the reporting accurate and the Obama administration wanted those reporting to lie and not report infractions committed by black students to get rid of the "disparities"?
The explanation for the "disparities" that so concerned Obama has to be one of the three above circumstances. But, of course, no where did Obama ask if the statistics were accurate, and if so, what could be done to improve black student behavior to reduce the "disparities".
Co-pilot: We're too low. The altimeter reads 4,000 ft. Mountains here are 6,500 ft high.
Pilot: No problem. Just put this electrical tape over the altimeter.
Co-pilot: What!?
We need to shout it from all angles that Broward county is run by dims who’ve migrated from NY and NJ primarily. This tragedy lies at the feet of them. Hold them accountable.
The only person who is safe in a gun free zone is the bad guy.
We need to arm and train the teachers and require that they use deadly force in the protection of the children under their care.
Well, that and the FBI.
This is probably worth a few segments on Fox.
Juvenile delinquents RULE the schools. Victims and their families should be outraged at their school’s discipline code and preparing to sue the BC School board and Sheriff’s office for this collaboration. Nikolas Cruz was never busted at school because of the 2013 NAACP collaborative discipline policy:
Broward County’s School Discipline ‘Agreement” signed by the Sheriff, State Atty and local judges. Its purpose is to keep minority juvenile delinquents out of prison by NOT enforcing Florida state laws in schools.
These various behaviors will NOT result in suspension or expulsion or notification to the police. Instead they receive warnings, lectures and possible stern scolding!
The infractions include -All student misbehavior and these non-violent infractions:
Disrupting or Interfering with class
Affray - fighting in a public place
Theft if less than $300
Vandalism damages < $1,000
Disorderly conduct
Trespassing, Loitering or Prowling
Criminal Mischief
Gambling
Harrassment or Threats
Alcohol -all related offenses
Possession of Cannabis
Drug Paraphernalia
Obstructing Justice w/out Violence
“Go ahead kids. Smoke pot, booze it up, fight, THREATEN a teacher and tear the bloody place up! The NAACP & Broward County got your back. Since your family has failed to discipline, a sanctuary law-breaking program shields you at your school.”
These are the parties that designed and signed onto this asinine SCHOOL DISCIPLINE POLICY.

Parkland victims’ families should file a class action suit against all of them.
I think it was Mills who said: “When you protect fools from their folly, you populate the Earth with fools.”
When outlaws are enabled and protected, why would they ever stop and evaluate their own neurotic behavior?
Sure, 17 kids died.....but the most important thing is liberals still "feel good" about themselves.
School boards looking at race and nationality have contributed to this problem. Turning a blind eye and applying the rules to everyone would help. NAACP and others won’t allow that though.
So, according to the “Broward County Solution”, what happens to a WHITE kid who causes a little trouble?
We now know that blacks and Hispanics are to be given a wide berth and to lower the arrest rates by lowering arrests.

“We’re not compromising school safety. We’re really saving the lives of kids,” said Michaelle Valbrun-Pope, executive director of Student Support Initiatives for Broward County Public Schools.

“I wish we could talk about this three years from now,” said Chief George Brown, who heads the district’s safety department. “You’ll see in a good way that it’s starting to be reduced.”

A female student interviewed on ABC Good Morning America ( !!!!!) this AM clearly stated that Nikolas was a student full of trouble.
Yet, either none of those kids had the guts to ‘squeal’ or ‘snitch’ on him or they knew that the school system wouldn’t pay any attention.
NOW-—all of us with guns are ‘to blame’ for this kid’s actions. The girl clearly stated that when they knew about the shooting happening, without any information as to who the shooter was, “they ALL knew it was Nikolas”.
I have posted for 5 days that the failure of today’s citizens -—young or old-—— about problem people is the root cause for all this trouble. In the inner cities, a triple murder can occur at high noon in broad daylight with 300 witnesses and ‘nobody knows nuffin’.
IF these policies are prevalent in the entire national school system, then THAT must change.
IIRC, there already was a big scandal a few years back about the head of school police in Miami getting busted for his ‘fantastic’ numbers regarding lower crime in the schools. He was UNDER charging crimes & in many cases, not charging at all. He was fired, IIRC.
When a kid is attending school for 12 years & sees that there are NO CONSEQUENCES for their misbehavior-—what do you expect? We train our dogs better than a whole nation full of kids!!! We have literally trained these kids in a mannere that tells them they can look the other way or just ignore things, and then they decide that all of the adults who have guns are to blame.
I personally refuse to take any blame. My family has had guns for longer than I am alive-—over 80 years. NEVER had any problem with owning guns. NEVER had the police called to our residence over 39 times. NEVER had any of our family members moved from one school to another. NEVER had any of our family EXPELLED from school.
How many lights have to go on flash at the schools??
How many bells have to ring & ring & ring?
How many SIGNALS does the school system need to ID & properly treat a troubled kid?
The kids who didn’t complain enough to get this solved BEFORE 2-14-18 and the family who ‘took him him’ are going to have nightmares over this for the rest of their lives.
The FBI has it’s own set of problems that should result in firings without pensions for those involved. AGAIN-—There has to be consequences for failure to act -—for everybody involved. Apparently the ‘See Something—Say Something’ doensn’t apply to the school systems. Massive System Failure.
We had a couple of troublemakers in school when I was a kid. They got punished, and I don’t mean moved elsewhere. The schools ere allowed to apply discipline in those days. Perhaps that wasn’t as wrong as today’s Dr. Spock Snowflakes seem to think.
The fault lies with the school system that exists today & the culture of “don’t snitch” in general.
I suspect the reason for his being expelled is at least as damming if not more so than what they admitted to or they would disclose it.
You don’t expell a kid unless you feel he is a probem of some kind. It seems rather obvous given what they admitted to knowing about him. Yet thoses thing we’re not the reason enough for his expultion, or they would have done it long before.
This whole case is rather fishy in regard to the school’s behavior and what they told teachers but apparently not the police. Its As if they were attempting internal enforcement, although clearly without the knowlage to do it right. ( No locked doors or armed teachers)
I suspect if these kids ever find out the whole story they will be pissed at their school and local leaders. Maybe that’s why they are not saying anything.
