The goal being to repair harm in our classroom community. Guess when I get to engage in this hippie circle? You bet, my 30min. lunch. Can't wait....

I just can't. How can MCPS leadership drink this Kool-Aid and expect other sane adults to follow suit?

What an absolute joke. All that second grader is going to learn is that there are no consequences.

Really? You're saying that schools are these magical zones where our laws aren't enforced? Why is MCPD not doing their job? If laws are being broken, there are consequences that are dispensed by the courts. MCPS on the other hand is not the judiciary. Their job is to educate kids. If you want to be mad at someone, please look to MCPD who is clearly at fault.

You're a fool. Progressives made sure that cops were pushed out of school. The only way they can get involved in an incident that occurs on school grounds is if the admin calls the cops.

Principals wanted SROs. It was the Progressives like Elrich, and probably you, who doesn't deal with the drug use and violence in our schools, who kicked the cops out of the schools such that they cannot do as you claim they should.

Blame the Elrich and the Progressives, probably you who also support "defund the police".

This is complete nonsense. Eliminating the ineffective SRO jobs does not push cops out of schools. Their jurisdiction is Montgomery county and they're responsible for enforcing laws here PERIOD. This hasn't changed.

I think what he's saying is the cops are angry the politicians eliminated the cushy SRO jobs so they've purposely let schools turn into the wild west out of spite.

So MCPD is refusing to enforce our laws and putting our children at risk?

Apparently

apparently you're dumb.

No. MCPS and the BOE nad the County Council have kicked police out of schools. MCPS has instructed admin NOT to involve MCPD and to handle incidents 'internally'.

Citation? I'm pretty sure they don't have the authority to do that.

of course they do. A fight or a teen taking drugs is not something that MCPS will call the cops for. They will only call the cops for something egregious like bringing a weapon to school.

Yes, MCPD seems to be angry that the council eliminated the cushy SRO jobs so they're taking it out on our kids and putting their safety at risk.

Can you provide a link to where the county council voted to make schools into lawless wild west zones free from police oversight?

+1 If the troll PP wants MCPD to do their jobs, then they need to be in the schools, walking the halls.

Or, the progressive liberals care more about perceived equity than our children's safety.

If laws are being broken, there are consequences that are dispensed by the courts. MCPS on the other hand is not the judiciary. Their job is to educate kids. If you want to be mad at someone, please look to MCPD who is clearly at fault.

You're a fool. Progressives made sure that cops were pushed out of school. The only way they can get involved in an incident that occurs on school grounds is if the admin calls the cops.

Principals wanted SROs. It was the Progressives like Elrich, and probably you, who doesn't deal with the drug use and violence in our schools, who kicked the cops out of the schools such that they cannot do as you claim they should.

Blame the Elrich and the Progressives, probably you who also support "defund the police".

This is complete nonsense. Eliminating the ineffective SRO jobs does not push cops out of schools. Their jurisdiction is Montgomery county and they're responsible for enforcing laws here PERIOD. This hasn't changed.

I think what he's saying is the cops are angry the politicians eliminated the cushy SRO jobs so they've purposely let schools turn into the wild west out of spite.

So MCPD is refusing to enforce our laws and putting our children at risk?

No. MCPS and the BOE nad the County Council have kicked police out of schools. MCPS has instructed admin NOT to involve MCPD and to handle incidents 'internally'.

Citation? I'm pretty sure they don't have the authority to do that.

of course they do. A fight or a teen taking drugs is not something that MCPS will call the cops for. They will only call the cops for something egregious like bringing a weapon to school.

So you're claiming that MCPS officials are covering up felonies?

Is fighting a felony? Minors taking drugs a felony?

Assault and possession of a controlled substance are both felonies

EXACTLY. The cover-up is MASSIVE.

so, if two kids are fighting in a public area, let's say a park, will the cops arrest them, and will the be a felony? Or will the cops call their parents and tell them to sort it out?

IMO, it only becomes a felony if the injury is so great that they need hospitalization. I don't think a fist fight will lead to felony charges for kids.
