Police halt High Five Friday after concerns from parents (Northampton, MA)

The left whines about not enough community policing, etc. so the cops start a community policing program. The SJw's then claim having cops high-five kids is now harmful.

Screw these regressive parasites. They must be destroyed.

[Opinionated Blowhard]

During a school committee meeting, concerns were raised that not all children would feel comfortable with a police presence at the beginning of the school day.

That's right. Keep that wall between the police and the community as high as possible. Feed the suspicion, don't reduce it. But then when some gangbanger kills your kid, weep and wail in front of the camera that the police aren't doing enough to protect your community.

“not all children would feel comfortable with a police presence at the beginning of the school day”

...so they’re more comfortable with a rogue shooter? No Gun Zones are the greatest!!

Someone must be putting us on. This can’t be a real news story.

This can’t be a real news story.

Well, there is no link to a legitimate news source.

and children who may have had a negative experience with police previously.

In an elementary school ??

You mean like this student?

[matt04]

You forgot step 3: Refuse to provide any info to the police at all. Sure you know “Lil’ J” was mad at you kid, don’t snitch. let the cops figure out it out, then when they can’t solve it throw a press conference with a picture of said victim on a t-shirt.

Sure it can be true——a VERY strange town and Lesbian capitol of the USA.

Anyone unfamiliar with Massachusetts can just look at it this way...in this country,Cambridge (Massachusetts) and Northampton can be seen as the East Coast's answer to Madison and Berkeley.

I,personally,would love to see INS agents greeting students on Friday morning.It would be fun to watch the outrage!

Hey,you should be taking Adrian Cronauer's advice:

"You can't say dykes,you can't even say lesbian.They're women in comfortable shoes"

(From "Good Morning,Vietnam" of course)

"...specifically students of color..."

And there it is. Now we know who complained. @$$holes.

[matt04]

Northampton makes Amherst seem almost normal.

[Uncle Sam 911]

The left hates the police but they dont seem to hate the massacres in minority neighborhoods that the cops could stop. Interesting.

Yup,and Brookline is the home of the Mike Dukakis Tank Commander Helmet Museum.

Just looked at the demographics. Approx 90% white, 2% black. Only 4% of voters are registered as Republicans. About a 50/50 split between Dem and unaffiliated.
