[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Watching the press conference and just feeling disturbed. McKnight literally thanked everyone in county government and MCPS before expressing any concern about the student who’s been shot or even saying anything about safety in schools. She then incredibly finished her statement blaming society. How pathetic. The absolute worst though [b]is not once did she say that this was unacceptable and that guns in schools were unacceptable.[/b] It’s incredible. I don’t understand it. [/quote]

Isn't that like saying water is wet? [/quote]
She had the time to talk about helping kids use their words but couldn’t be bothered to preface that by saying that this cannot stand? You tell me why it’s important to emphasize the need to be empathetic to a school shooter but not emphasize how unacceptable this is? It’s unprecedented in our county. Words matter and I don’t feel very assured that she’s serious about keeping guns out of our schools and based on her statement she seems equally concerned about helping schools shooters as she is about protecting the safety of students.

It’s unacceptable. [/quote]
That was a pretty bad press conference. The police chief was cracking jokes and the interim supt was playing politics.

I honestly don’t feel reassured at all that under these people things will get better. In fact, it’s the kind of performance that makes me think it’s only going to get worse. [/quote]
