The same dynamics that gave troublemakers a free pass, was responsible for the Parkland school shooting. A "Dear Colleague" letter and guidance from the Obama Regime, issued in 2014, was aimed at reducing the school-to-prison pipeline by prodding schools to reduce the number of suspensions and expulsions, especially for students of color and students with disabilities, both of whom received disciplinary actions at disproportionately high rates. This policy caused many school districts to embrace what's known as "restorative justice" discipline programs and quickly became one of the Obama administration's darlings for its efforts to focus on equity in discipline. It is apparent that it is just this policy that this unnamed school district had in full effect! Ironically it took place in Florida, the state where the Parkland shooting took place!

"restorative justice"

The NYC public school system, under the commie mayor Comrade Bill DumblASSio, has exactly the same policy. They practically forbid teachers to suspend students of "color"--by far, the biggest number of students acting out--and so handed the misbehaving students a free pass to vandalize, threaten, beat up, steal from others, etc. This has, of course, resulted in a climate where teachers have to tiptoe around their students, for fear of the students "not liking them" and therefore subjecting them to violence, disruption of classes, submitting false statements of misdoing by the teacher (much like Jussie Smollett has just done), etc.

Fools.
