[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For those of you who think SROs are bad for students, please watch this video of the SRO at Quince Orchard a few years ago and the impact he had in the community. Even Craig Rice, council member knew the importance of SROs.

That is 1 SRO who does not represent the all SROs.

Post the video of the cops berating a 5 year old. Cops should not be with kids.[/quote]
Why? Those weren't SROS.  Why can't you stick to the topic at hand? [/quote]

The topic is cops in the school, they don't belong there. You can post 1 good cop that knew he was being recorded at the time. How about cops have to turn on their video as soon as they walk in the school and you can see every interaction... they won't do it thought. Why not, because they treat some kids 1 way and other another. Blair HS did a non-scientific study and sent kids down the hall without a note... white kids never were even approached, black kids got detention. But it was all a set up.

Why even call a cop for behavior that is insane, cops should not deal with behavior, they should deal with crime. [/quote]

Can you provide a link to the Blair study?  Because my understanding is that it is the security officers (mcps employee, not MCPD) who are responsible for disciplining kids in the hallway without permission.  (I think teachers can do this also.). I don’t think that’s generally what the SRO is doing.  So you’re pointing out issues of racism or implicit bias in the McPS labor pool, but not an issue that relates specifically to cops.  [/quote]

+1. Does the “non-scientific study” specifically state it was a school SRO, or was this MCPS staff? Either way, all that study shows is that one particular person is discriminating. You simply can’t take those results and project them on an entire community or profession. Once again, the anti-SRO argument assumes all SROs have bad intentions and its claims are wide-sweeping, with no true evidence or data to back them up. [/quote]

Yes, it's almost as if the anti-SRO crowd is doing the same thing that racists are guilty of doing by being prejudiced towards all SROs because of experiences they've seen with some cops. What's even worse is that challenging them on this idea is considered racist. [/quote]

The anti-SRO crowd just know it doesn’t work. Just like 3 strikes you are out or mandatory minimums. They sound good but after years of research it.does.not.work.

This article links actual scientific studies.

3 chances is more than reasonable.[/quote]Gmail.

3 strikes doesn't work for whom? For the criminals? Okay. I'm okay with that. [/quote]

It increases the crime rate… you’re good with that. Wow! Even Polly Klauses dad who created the law spent years getting rid of it.  [/quote]

When you type disingenuous nonsense like this, all of your arguments are suspect.
Polly klass' father distenced himself from 3 strikes because it was too broad (with offenders of minor offenses like stealing a piece of bread) not because he disagreed with putting violent offenders away for life. He continues to be a strong supporter of the death penalty.  [/quote]

He created a law “3 stiles you are out” … he didn’t understand how it would affect the community as a whole. He did not understand laws or how they work. It increased crime … that is on him.

Nobody thinks violent offenders should not be in jail FS. When you type Disingenuous stuff like this all your arguments are suspect.

You also don’t understand how policies affect the community as a whole.[/quote]

It's you. Really.

"Using data from all criminal convictions during 1990 through 1999 in California’s three biggest cities—Los Angeles, San Francisco, and San Diego—Iyengar finds that the three-strikes law did indeed have a large effect on the likelihood of recidivating (committing a crime after release from prison) in the two years following a prior offense. For those with one strike, the law reduced recidivism by 14 percent; this doubled to a 28 percent reduction for two-strikers, whose next crime would trigger the minimum 25-year prison term."

And yes,  those who chose to offend again became more violent more quickly,  just as they would have done anyway, just over s longer time period.

Same with the "sros are school to prison pipelines@"

Those kids are going to prison anyway. Without sros around, they're just taking good kids to the hospital first.[/quote]
Guess the bible's right: spare the rod, spoil the child![/quote]
