Loudoun County’s sheriff rejected a request by the school district’s superintendent to dramatically ramp up the law enforcement presence at a pair of school board meetings in August, newly released emails show.
Scott Ziegler, the superintendent for the Virginia county, asked the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office (LCSO) for three deputies to be inside the administration building for the Aug. 10 and Aug. 11 meetings, the emails show. He also requested a “K-9 explosive sweep,” a five-person “Quick Reaction Force,” undercover deputies, and another team “stood up and on standby at nearby location.”
Loudoun County Sheriff Mike Chapman rejected the request, according to one of the emails.
Chapman informed district officials that there would be no uniformed officers inside the building where the meetings were taking place nor would there be a law enforcement presence on campus.
Officers would be “in the area” in case they needed to quickly respond to a call, he said, according to a report on a discussion between district officials and the sheriff’s office conveyed to Ziegler in one of the emails.
Chapman said he was motivated not to approve the requests because the school board made a number of decisions without consulting the sheriff’s office, including deciding to limit public comment for a previous June 22 meeting and hiring a security firm with a metal detector.
“LCSO has been made to appear as the muscle for school board and work at the school board’s direction,” Kevin Lewis, a district official, told Ziegler in the call summary. The sheriff also said he believed citizens should have a right to address the board and that the board was being dismissive of people with whom they disagreed.
The documents were obtained by the Fight for Schools PAC and published by Fox News.

Sounds like the school board is a bit paranoid. They should be. They should all be locked up in federal pound you in the butt prison.
Better headline: County sheriff tells Loudoun County schoolboard commies to ESAD.
I had my run ins with the Polk County FL school board and various school administrators over 20 years ago. Oxygen wasters. Things have evolved exactly as I predicted at that time. Perhaps devolved would be a more appropriate term.
By that I mean government schools in general, though I have no doubt Polk County has gotten equally worse. We left Florida over 15 years ago. Never looked back.
when our sophisticated betters are afraid.....that is good.
They’re as paranoid as Nancy Pelosi. Maybe they could put fences up everywhere.

I don’t know what your point is.

There has been one resignation by one of the leftist fascists on the board, but the superintendent needs to resign or be removed.
