[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you watch nothing else, please watch the recent graduate recount how her relationship and trust in her SRO helped her face a crisis moment where a bunch of cops showed up at her house.   Minute 31.

Policy by anecdote is bad policy. Good TV, but still bad policy.[/quote]

Anecdote is the sole reason Elrich pulled them out.    Then violence skyrocketed and there was a school shooting.   [/quote]

Anecdote is why we lost SROs in the first place. If you watch the link above, you’ll see that it provides pro-SRO anecdotes to balance the echo chamber anecdotes that led to Elrich’s decision in the first place. The video also provides some MCPS-specific statistics, which were largely ignored by Elrich and the council. [/quote]

Violence was about the same but pro-SRO posters kept highlighting every incident to make it seem that way. Putting them back won't really solve anything. It simply is a way to divert more funds from education into other pockets.[/quote]
