[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it [i]really[/i] racist of me, as a POC, if I don't support a group somewhat also comprised of POC?  I don't think so but good for you for trying.

Regardless the point is that the group does not represent a majority of the student and staff population.

What annoys me most about people like you and this group is that any difference of opinion is immediately discounted as "racist."

At some point you need to grow up and understand that just because you're black doesn't mean that anyone who isn't black is against you.  Until you make that realization though you are even more racist than the people at which you lodge that supposed barb.[/quote]

Did you or anyone else conduct a poll to assess whether the majority of both the student body and staff supported retaining the SROs?  Thus, you assertion about what the majority thinks on this issue is unsupported, [b]never mind that the majority’s view is not necessarily the right one.
[/b]
Also, I was clear that I was commenting on the attacks on the organization (and it student supporters) who advocated for removing the SRO as being racist, not the general opposition to the removal of the SROs.  Moreover, just because you are purportedly a POC, it does not mean your arguments cannot be racist.

LOL.[/quote]

That was cute, wasn't it?

[i]You're wrong and it's impossible for you to be right even if the majority agrees with you.[/i]

What a tantrum throwing child.[/quote]

Your name calling is reflective on you and not on me.  My comment highlighted above is not funny and you misconstrue it.  As a general matter, the majority view of a group is not necessarily the “right” view.  You are actually making that exact argument if the group in question is the City Council.  A majority of the City Council voted to no longer fund the SRO program and you are saying that majority is wrong.

As I noted above, no one really knows what the majority of affected students and staff think on this issue.   Finally, again, I have acknowledged that there are good faith reasons to keep the SROs but I just think the reasons for removing them prevail.  I only objected to belittling the organization advocating for the removal of the SROs and the students that support it.  Your response to personally attack me.

Your never convince them just let it go.

My H is a cop. The SRO program is a mess. Yes they are not there to “serve and protect” they are there to get dirt on kids, they are built in narcs… and use it against  them. Guess who they target more boys of color and white girls who date black boys. It’s pathetic. He’s long said that it should be illigal. This is not 22 jump street.

There are few nice ladies that become SRO because they should have never been cops they are good SROs but they are never stopping a gun man or even hreak up a fight.

A good number are just bad cops they needed to remove from the street “how much damage can they do at a school”.

Of course the majority are not affected, most don’t  really know what goes on behind the scenes.[/quote]
