if by dumb you mean stating facts sure

You can't have education in an unsafe situation. MCPS is 100% responsible for safety on its grounds. They have made police reactive rather than preventive. It's all on them. |
Exactly! |
I agree as long as “them” is the council council and Elrich. MCPD can’t do anything to help the schools when the politicians decided to keep MCPD out. To the posters blaming school violence on MCPD: you’re just being silly. |
By dumb I mean you keep posting the same ol' shlt that makes zero sense, as if MCPD are mind readers and know *exactly* where and when there is illegal activity going on in the school where they are NOT welcome to come in unless called by the school -- that kind of dumb. |
No, they are being purposefully dumb, or maybe they are really this dumb, and want to blame MCPD for everything, when it was Elrich and his progressive minions who took that power away from MCPD. |
NP here - my sister is a police officer and MCPD is in a similar situation as MCPS. The county is full of offenders and when the police arrest someone for dangerous crimes, they get a slap on the wrist from our county judges. It's a revolving door and criminals have caught on. It's a terrible time to be in education or law enforcement. |
So you think King Elrich can forbid the police from doing their jobs? He simply removed SROs from the schools. MCPD are still responsible for enforcing laws in Montgomery county just like its MCPS job to educate children. |
Sure, then let's bring back SROs so they can do their jobs in the schools. Ya with me? |
Yes, King Elrich took MCPD out of the schools so they can no longer do their jobs. SROs are part of MCPD. Now you finally get it. |
Yes, the SROs are no longer in schools but MCPD is still responsible for enforcing the laws in montgomery county. The problem is they're not doing their jobs. |
I am. They never should have been taken out. |
|
wow. it takes 5 years to roll out restorative justice programs.
big jurisdictions have been know to fail. decisions are made on a school by school basis so there is no uniformity how kids experience this. no wonder some people think RJ is working well and others don’t. in the mean time, absent SROs, the racial disparities in suspension rates are actually worse. arrests are up as well. |
I heard SROs aren't all that effective at keeping school safe. They were present at both parkland and uvalde and look how that turned out. |
Can you explain how you think this worked? So SROs were removed, so they weren’t IN the schools to see the problems. Police, therefore, could only show up if MCPS called them. It’s hard to enforce rules and laws when you aren’t allowed to be in the halls. CEO 2.0 should correct this. Let’s not pretend for a short second that this is MCPD’s fault, no matter how it might be spinned. Yes, this falls on Elrich and the council. Period. |
