If a person is stabbed they can bleed out in the time it takes to get an officer there. |
Grow up and google. We can post hundreds and you will still deny it. Here is an article where a Sri saved a child. https://www.wdbj7.com/2023/02/02/montgomery-county-sro-saves-childs-life/ |
Yes, that's why schools need Paramedics not SROs on staff. ![]() |
I'm sure you can find one or two rare cases where they did some good but there are many more where they did nothing or made schools less safe. Parkland and Uvalde come to mind. |
Seriously? This is the best you could find in over 3 hours of searching? I guess they should have them monitor the cafeteria during lunch.

lol that was a choking incident at lunch. |
It’s rather frustrating, especially since this poster keeps us from having a genuine conversation about school safety. I find it fascinating that I can post I’ve personally witnessed a SRO respond to a stabbing, and somehow that’s not evidence that they can be beneficial. And this poster says SROs shouldn’t be trained in emergency first aid? Makes me wonder if this poster is a high schooler here just for fun. |
Because anecdotal examples are not universally true. |
Of course not, but they certainly disprove your theory that SROs never do anything beneficial. |
If SROs are so bad for URM, why did PG county decide to have them? |
Why do you think PG county SRO’s are great and moco CEOs aren’t? They are the exact same thing. |
I didn’t say they never did anything beneficial. I said they don’t save lives. Even a person who mops the floors is beneficial. |
This question makes absolutely no sense. The point is that PGCPS decided to maintain their SRO program when MCPS decided to get rid of theirs. (Well, the council and county exec decided. MCPS principals actually voted unanimously to keep them, but what do educators know about schools? Clearly politicians know more.) The current CEO program is what they brought back when the council realized they made a huge mistake. |
You wrote “There is literally not 1 example of an SRO saving a life.” I gave you an example. And you’re going to somehow downplay that? I’ll say saving a kid shows the benefit of SROs in schools. I suppose you disagree. Honestly, we should just have this thread locked. |
It was a choking situation… are you daft? |
