There is no police brutality because no police have been charged with brutality is not the convincing argument you think it is.

What about the MCP who got caught on camera screaming in the face of a 5 year-old last year? Do they not count because they weren't SROs? They also were not charged, because it is basically impossible to charge police, nor were they disciplined.

oh so one bad apple means we should get rid of them all? I knew you were going to bring up this strawman argument. Gosh, I could say the same thing about certain groups because of one bad incident.

Next time your kid needs a cop to help them, make sure you tell them not to call the cop because they are all bad. See how that works?

Um yeah if a company is selling apples and some of them are poisonous and they don't try to get rid of the poisonous apples then hell no I am not eating any of those apples.

And I am sure as f^ck not giving any of those apples to my children.

so, along those lines, if one black kid did something bad to your kid will you make sure your kid never interacts with a black kid?

You won’t get a response to that. Obviously.

Anyone? Anyone?

No one is hungry for your racist troll bait.

That would be a foolish requirement. If the voters want the BoE members to be MCPS parents, then the voters can express this desire at the ballot box (assuming that there are even candidates who are MCPS parents for the voters to vote for, which there often aren't).

Not to mention that Jawando is not on the BoE. He's on the county council.

And he has children in MCPS (as far as I know).

Its on his twitter - he has his kids holding signs and its listing a private school.

Ohhhh, that’s rich. Jawando sends his kids to private? I wouldn’t be surprised. He is such a useless hypocrite.

It’s his talking point. He does not know how to handle these situations.

Is there ANY evidence that what he is suggesting works?

There is evidence that throwing more money at the problem doesn't always work.

Nope. No, none at all.

Yes, its clear in a recent photo of one of the kids for their birthday. They are holding up a first day of school sign stating a private school. The little one is dressed in a uniform but they don't look school age so that's a non-issue.

He has no idea what goes on in MCPS so he can scream mental health as its not his kids safety at risk.

Providing more mental health services is always a good thing. Just like it would be a good thing to offer more remedial classes, better dyslexia screening and programs, tutoring, special education, special programs for kids with mental health issues (we have very limited programs), more ST, OT, PT for kids and even offer things like full neuropsych. evaluations for kids struggling to get a baseline and then actually offer directed services toward that. We need to get kids very young at the elementary age, not wait till middle school and high school. We need to screen all kids not reading starting in 1st grade and provide them with intensive reading supports. Many of these kids act out as they cannot do the work, not because they are bad kids or down't want to. Its less embarrassing to be the behavior kid than the kid who cannot read or write.

He has a very narrow viewpoint based off him having healthy kids who are probably, hopefully thriving.

No. Mental health supports are helpful, but not particularly preventative. Anyone who's had a kid in therapy for years realizes that a mental health counselor isn't going to be much use in discrete incidents in schools.

They should have layered SROs with additional mental health supports. They could have improved accountability for SROs across the board, and they already identified some ways to help reduce racial disparities. But that wasn't good enough. It's all performative, and they don't seem to care what actually happens to kids.

Any kids with long term health issues, its not going to be helpful. But, for a one time crisis it might be. But, reality is those kids in a one term crisis need more mental health treatment.

I love how Jawando thinks a police response to a stabbing is "appropriate." What else was supposed to happen?

Jawando is a fraud. He cheered in immersion programs but when his kid didn’t get the more upper class option (Rock Creek Forest) he stopped advocating for them.

It’s the same kid in both photos Sherlock. It’s when she was little next to her photo this year. He has four kids, one of whom has special needs- I believe the other school age kids are in MCPS.

His kids (at least some) are in Rock Creek Forest. I once met his wife a few months before the lottery and asked her where her kids were going to school, and she said, Oh RCF. Really, I said? It’s a lottery, you know that right? And she just smiled and said, oh no we’re going there. And then guess what? They “won” the lottery. He is awful. If they sent their kids to Cannon Road ES near where they live I’d actually listen to what he says but he’s such a hypocrite.

You're in for a surprise, though Virginia flipping really should make it less of a surprise. We've had enough.

MD is not Virginia.
Maryland has hardcore Dems while Virginia has newcomer Dems

I mean I actually did respond to that but the trolls don't know how to respond to the fact that Black kids get arrested when they commit crimes (and also when they don't) but police officers are totally unaccountable for their actions while in uniform. Police officers are part of a union, Black kids are just people (I know that may come as a shock to some people here).

Why would I trust anyone who is a part of a powerful organization that protects criminals within their own ranks? Same reason I don't trust the Catholic Church.

As soon as that is mentioned the trolls just ignore and respond to other posts because they are gutless, pathetic excuses for human beings.
