“communities already struggling with over-incarceration”
People have been afraid to say the obvious: BLM set off a black crime wave. Mass incarceration worked. It will work again when communities get sick of the crime wave.
The Chicago School Board are cheap bastards. I’m guessing they will expect the Feds to step in a pay for officers.
The problem is, that smacking a troublesome black kid will cause civil unrest and multi million dollar lawsuits.
Yet walk through an airport where EVERYONE has been screened for such deadly weapons as nail files and assault nail clippers and notice how many armed police and CBP officers there are.
Priorities folks, priorities.

The Chicago BOE is a regressive organization promoting inequality
I recall those days. Men would have their rifles in the back window on display, truck engine running, doors unlocked and in the bar having a few drinks. They could come out and both the pickup and gun would still be there.
Imagine doing this today in Chicago.
There have been Chicago Police officers in Chicago high schools since the 1960’s, when the gang problem grew exponentially in the city. It is estimated there are over a 100 gangs in Chicago and over 100,000 gang members or wannabes, many teenagers, in their ranks. Not that they all attend school (I suspect most drop out) but there was a reason coppers were there. That reason still exists. This is an even greater nightmare about to happen. As for Chicago’s board of uneducation, one of the worst in the country, this is another “stuff the pockets” of incompetent at best teachers with additional dollars, and the hell with the kids and their safety. After all, this new mayor was a Chicago public school teacher and he exhibits the “quality” of his education and skill sets, daily. Chitown’s ongoing self destruction on display. Let’s go Brandon....Johnson.
If the police officers are removed from the Chicago Public Schools, does this also mean that the metal detectors are going to be removed as well? The police operated the metal detectors and inspected persons entering the schools because numerous “students” were in the habit of bringing guns to classroom buildings.
It’s not enough what happens on Chicago streets, they want to be sure the shooters on the street get into the schools. The Dims of Illinois/Chicago are evil people.
