SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH don’t tell the snowflakes they’re to busy taking the day off to protest.
...County administrators and School Superintendents told local and county law enforcement officers to stop arresting students...
Eye opening but not unexpected. Of course, the norm in ultra democrat, ultra liberal Broward County, Florida.
No consequences for bad behavior is now a Democrat norm. What else would you expect from growing up like this.
Broward county shows once again that it is the armpit of Florida.
I’m a former resident.
Why did the upset students NOT NOTIFY THE SHERIFF,
until AFTER the assault, and the make their complaint ?
What happened to (DHS) : "Hear something, see something,..say something"
The suddenly indignant students and the school system have chastened the accountability to central government, (ie: the Feds!)
whereas they had first hand observations.
Ping.
2016 Presidential election, Broward county FL.

And what do all these people do? They blame the President of the United States.
No sociopathic children left behind!
School is for the best, not the worst.
I give CTH great credit for bringing this up, but at this point the evidence linking Cruz with Diversion programs is hidden, and will be hard to unhide.
Proving that “Diversion” (whereby the school systems and PDs/SDs in Miami-Dade and Broward County left it up to schools to deal with serious crimes by students so that “minority” males would not generate all those pesky statistical disparities) kept Cruz from having a criminal conviction that would have a) had him in jail or mental health lockup; or b) at least caused him to fail a background check for buying a firearm — is .
Lawsuits by victims’ families might be the only way to force this into the open, via discovery. Even then, it will probably be covered up — the agencies will settle rather than let the public know the truth.
Someone posted this yesterday. These is the preamble to the “agreement between the School District, the State, and the LEO’s:
(I think you can see the genesis of the problem in Broward County Schools)
(I also see multiple lawsuits from the families of the dead and wounded)
Here are the opening Wherases in the document! I am underewhelmed! They call the end result sought as COMMON SENSE DISCIPLINE!
I don’t know about you but my butt cheeks tighten whenever a government official starts talking about COMMON SENSE, because they have little or none of it!
Somewhere the idea of the protection of the student body is left out!
WHEREAS, the parties acknowledge that law enforcement plays an essential role in maintaining safety in the community. However, the use of arrests and referrals to the criminal justice system may decrease a student’s chance of graduation, entering higher education, joining the military, and getting a job.
WHEREAS, in the 2011-2012 school year, the Department of Juvenile Justice reported 1,062 school-related arrests in Broward County, the highest number in the state. 71% of these arrests were for misdemeanor offenses. Over half of those students had never been referred to the Juvenile Justice System before.
WHEREAS, across the country, students of color, students with disabilities and LGBTQ students are disproportionately impacted by school-based arrests for the same behavior as their peers.
WHEREAS, The Florida Legislature “encourage[s] schools to use alternatives to expulsion or referral to law enforcement agencies by addressing disruptive behavior through restitution, civil citation, teen court, neighborhood restorative justice, or similar programs” and 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.”
WHEREAS, with a joint commitment to ending school-based arrests for minor misbehavior, school districts and law enforcement agencies across the country have improved school safety, school engagement and academic achievement. The parties to this agreement are confident that by working together, they can return Broward County Public Schools to a culture of common sense discipline that allows all students to enjoy a safe and effective education.
I knew something was up the way the principal evaded questions and the MSM did no follow up on the students warnings given to the administration about his weird and threatening behavior.
These guys never learn that the mass shooting and killing take place in “Gun Free Zone”. Did a mass shooting happened ever in a police station? No. Because the people inside have guns.
Bump
I’ve been posting this here for two days with minimal response. Glad that Sundance got it out there. This program provides sanctuary for all criminal juvenile delinquents in the Broward school system (5th largest in country.)

Learned on another thread that the perpetrator was staying at the home of of a friend who’s father works for military Intel. Also, perpetrator’s deceased adoptive father was a Military Intel employee. Pretty bizarre. Fake “shooter” drills were also going on at the high school at the same time as the shootings. A couple of young people state that there were multiple shooters as well. One girl walked out with Cruz and they both heard shots! That is how Cruz made his escape.
More Death by Democrats.
SOCIAL JUSTICE KILLS. IT IS IMMORAL.
This is a great example of the of the folly of social justice policy. There are too many black youths [or insert other minority group] arrested/incarcerated; therefore, reduce the number of black youths arrested/incarcerated by simply ignoring crime. Crime ignored is crime condoned, you get more of it, and lessons are not learned to keep it from escalating.
