Therapists cannot stop drug overdoses either.

Drug test strips can prevent drug overdoses. Narcan can counter drug overdoses.

Wait.

1) You're expecting teenagers who are buying illegal drugs to be responsible enough to want to test said drugs before using them?

2) You want the school to keep said test strips on hand so students can confirm their drugs don't have fentanyl and then be allowed to use these illegal drugs on school property?

This is a good idea to you?

I prefer to mitigate the harm, yes. Testing for fentanyl seems better than overdosing from fentanyl.

Yeah, I don't think giving kids a pass to use illegal drugs (as long as it's fentanyl-free!!!!) on school property is gonna fly with most parents. And I'm stunned that you don't see why that would be a no-go for the school district either.

Well, then, there will be more overdoses, which could have been prevented.

Or we could focus on intercepting their drug use at school which would also prevent overdoses from happening.

Except the drug use most likely happens before they arrive at school.

Where are you getting this from? Report after report has talked about substance abuse in school bathrooms and you’re still talking about “most likely” scenario that isn’t the case. Can you get knowledgeable about what is actually happening and stop making up what you think is happening?

Ridiculous how many serious incidents we've had in MCPS this past few weeks alone.

I've never started a petition. Would MCPS/BOE/Elrich even care?

Nope. The BOE / Elrich only care about pushing their 'progressive' agenda. That is also what voters want. SROs are not a part of that agenda, so it won't happen.

It’s not like SROs are good for anything, though.

All cops are bastards anyway.

"intercepting their drug use at school" - how, exactly? strip searches?

So, you don’t think home and parents play any factor and role in this?

Is it a coincidence that there's been a rise in violence, drugs, and weapons at MCPS property since SROs were removed? Hmm.

Or we could do both. Just like with condoms and needle exchanges.

Look the schools may not need them but it keeps some adults gainfully employed. The SRO thing is just a socialist welfare jobs program for people who are otherwise unemployable.

It's about the same; there's just a rise in postings about these things to fearmonger and help bring back SROs.

That's fine since they were never really part of the solution anyway.

BOE memo disagrees. I know you would rather ignore the findings, though, since it doesn't fit your narrative.

https://www.boarddocs.com/mabe/mcpsmd/Board.nsf/files/C2S2RR727C3F/$file/SRO%20Program%20210511.pdf

If that were true, they'd do something about it already but years have past and nothing so guess it's not a serious concern.

Actually, Elrich did backtrack and bring in CEOs rather than SROs..

BOE doesn't have the power to bring back SRO. It's funded by the county.

Elrich pulled the plug before BOE could even decide on it.

https://www.mymcmedia.org/board-of-education-discusses-best-ways-to-replace-police-officers-in-schools/

“The decision has been taken out of our hands,” said BOE Member Patricia O’Neill.

Elrich should walk the halls, break up fights, and deal with kids with guns in schools.

The Parkland SRO ran from the gunman. Don't expect SROs to help with that.

Way to go for quoting one incident. SROs have helped mitigate violent situations at schools (including gun related ones) countless times. Read up on the data, including the one further up that PP provided. Why do you think all MCPS principals unanimously wanted to keep them?

Because the principals believe that they help the principals. Empirically, there's not much evidence demonstrating that SROs are effective.

That's not what the BOE memo shows

Unless your head has been so far up your a$$ that you can't read the news, you are playing down the uptick in violence in our schools
