RJ is not SRO. If there were more SRO's maybe some of this could be prevented. You are using two incidents. Many more where SRO's did good.


At Parkland and Uvalde, when an armed assailant was present, the SROs just ran away.


Ok? You had two bad sros but reality is one person cannot do that alone. There are many more incidents where sros save lives. You need a new talking point.


There is literally not 1 example of an SRO saving a life.


Google is your friend. Plenty of story’s. Stop with your nonsense.


I agree. I saw the PP’s post and I was about to pull tons of examples. Then I decided not to waste my time.

If PP truly cared to see positive SRO stories, then PP would have already done that extremely simple Google search.


It’s the same person over and over again. We’ve posted plenty of examples. They have a weird agenda and don’t care who they harm in the process.


It’s rather frustrating, especially since this poster keeps us from having a genuine conversation about school safety.

I find it fascinating that I can post I’ve personally witnessed a SRO respond to a stabbing, and somehow that’s not evidence that they can be beneficial. And this poster says SROs shouldn’t be trained in emergency first aid?

Makes me wonder if this poster is a high schooler here just for fun.


Because anecdotal examples are not universally true.


Of course not, but they certainly disprove your theory that SROs never do anything beneficial.


I didn’t say they never did anything beneficial. I said they don’t save lives.

Even a person who mops the floors is beneficial.


You wrote “There is literally not 1 example of an SRO saving a life.” I gave you an example.

And you’re going to somehow downplay that? I’ll say saving a kid shows the benefit of SROs in schools. I suppose you disagree.

Honestly, we should just have this thread locked.


It was a choking situation… are you daft?

Why do you think PG county SRO’s are great and moco CEOs aren’t? They are the exact same thing.


This question makes absolutely no sense.

The point is that PGCPS decided to maintain their SRO program when MCPS decided to get rid of theirs. (Well, the council and county exec decided. MCPS principals actually voted unanimously to keep them, but what do educators know about schools? Clearly politicians know more.) The current CEO program is what they brought back when the council realized they made a huge mistake.

Pick me! Pick me! I’ve seen it happen with my own eyes. I’ve worked with SROs and have witnessed them respond to crises in the building. I’ve seen them remove weapons from children, and I’ve seen them act as first responders when students have been hurt. Guess what? None of it was advertised. (Why would it be? It was just them doing their jobs.)


Still none of those examples are not SRO’s saving lives.


Grow up and google. We can post hundreds and you will still deny it.

Here is an article where a Sri saved a child. https://www.wdbj7.com/2023/02/02/montgomery-county-sro-saves-childs-life/


lol that was a choking incident at lunch.

Seriously? This is the best you could find in over 3 hours of searching?
I guess they should have them monitor the cafeteria during lunch.
During lunch January 31, Linkous choked on a pretzel, which left him breathless on the floor. Students alerted Parks that Linkous needed help.

“It was obvious that he was choking on food,” Parks said. “I started doing stomach thrusts and was having no results with that so I transitioned him onto the floor to do chest compressions at that point.”

I'm sure you can find one or two rare cases where they did some good but there are many more where they did nothing or made schools less safe. Parkland and Uvalde come to mind.

Removing weapons from children doesn’t save lives? Being the first responders when students are injured doesn’t save lives?

I watched one stop a stab wound. Does that count?

when the boy was shot at Magruder HS, they called it in as a "stabbing".

They are not trained in stuff like this, nor should they be.

The CEO came to the HS after a few minutes of the 911 call, and then called for backup. A few minutes could be the difference between life and death if the shooter was still active.

In such cases, having an SRO in the school would have been more helpful.


If a person is stabbed they can bleed out in the time it takes to get an officer there.


Yes, that's why schools need Paramedics not SROs on staff.
