[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please go watch last night's episode of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver and learn a little more about why SROs not only don't work but cause harm: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgwqQGvYt0g[/quote] One major problem with his characterization of the problem is an implicit assumption that the bad acts by police and school administrators wouldn’t happen if not for SROs. Namely, principals are still going to call the police for ridiculous things regardless of whether or not there’s already an officer in the building. Better administrators and policies are important, but better-trained police are important, too. And the only to have a real chance at that is to have an SRO program with specific training for that role.[/quote]
