A report released Friday claims four of Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel’s deputies waited outside Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School while the attack was occurring. On February 22 Breitbart News reported that one deputy resigned after it was learned that he was on scene but failed to control Nikolas Cruz. Sheriff Israel told ABC 13 that video shows the deputy, Scott Peterson, “arrive at the west side of Building 12” and “take a position” outside the school — but never go inside. The sheriff’s office moved to suspend Peterson, who resigned before the suspension could take place.
Now CNN reports that the Coral Springs police officers claim three other Broward County deputies were outside the school but failed to go inside as well. They quote “Coral Springs sources” who said the three “deputies had their pistols drawn and were behind their vehicles” when Coral Springs officers arrived. They said “not one of [the deputies] had gone into the school.”

Are you saying if they weren’t unionized, they wouldn’t have gone into the building?
If not, then your post is a complete non-sequiter to the point that getting rid of cop unions would make things better.
They knew their lives were on the the line as were the people trapped in there. They weren’t chinkenshits
Hillary has the crazy eyes.
Reading your post made me very uncomfortable especially with the continuing reports of calls and referrals to local and federal authorities that Cruz was heavily armed and had publicly threatened to attack something or someone many times over going totally unheeded by the local LEOs and the Feebs. Tie these together and add the immediate well organized nationwide reaction against guns and a picture emerges that I do not want to think about.
Understand completely. But it sure is in the realm of the plausible. Or something very very close.
So what? They were cowards. They had firearms, and knew helpless children were being murdered. At that point the danger to them matters -less- than the danger to the innocents.
Pure cowardice.
They truly are cowards.
“Get rid of CORRUPT union officials and everything else will be much easier to deal with.”
So they can be replaced with other corrupt union officials? The rank and file voted them into office in the first place.
Public employee unions are inherently corrupting.
Wow.
“If we can just wait til it gets to the National Guard level, we won’t have to do anything!”
Murder as fundraising, since the DNC is broke.
“They weren’t chinkenshits”
Yes, they were.
I’ll bet armed parents or teachers would not have cowered in place.
All those who were so quick to blame the NRA..they are making total jerks out of themselves. Same with the companies who are distancing themselves from the NRA.
I make no claim to being exceptionally brave and I have never been in combat or a gunfight. I have been a firefighter and on several occasions feared for my life. One instance will be with me forever. I and a partner, wearing air packs, thought that there was someone still in a burning house. We nearly stayed too long looking for him. We finally exited when our low air bells went off. At that point we had no choice. Ends up a friend had come by with a new truck and taken him for a ride. That explained his car being there. Had we given up early or never made the effort and lost a life neither one of us could have lived with that. I cannot understand these deputies just stsnding by.
But who cares.... let’s take away our constitutional rights of self protection because of the complete failure of government protection at all levels failing abysmally!
Hard not to believe this was a false flag attack planned and orchestrated by the cia and fbi.
To perpetrate gun control brainwashing.
>> Get rid of CORRUPT union officials and everything else will be much easier to deal with <<
Just get rid of government unions period. The taxpayers have no place at the bargaining table.
