    So circumvention of security measures by willful defeat?

    I'd find that a damn sight more acceptable than what wound up happening!

    And since at least some of them were too scared to touch the door then the resulting firefight should have been pretty one sided....or would some balls have suddenly been found?..the world wonders

    His rank is based on the north korean rank system.

    Maybe the whole idea that the cause of these things is "mental illness" is really just a gigantic misunderstanding of what mental illness is or isn't.

    This one is just bizarre...A mom who was cuffed by cops at Uvalde before she was able to save her two sons from the gunman at Robb Elementary has claimed officers have been harassing her since the massacre.

    Sorry, I don't mean to come off as a cop-basher and my own LE experiences have been VERY positive, but... from the look of this case, Arredondo and every one of his minions who enabled this nightmare are every bit as culpable as if they had pulled the triggers and murdered those kids and two adults themselves, and IMHO should stand trial on 21 counts each Accessory To Murder.

    They'd prolly be VERY popular people in GenPop...

    I do believe that SROs are a great thing to have. I see it first hand all the time at work. From what Ive seen kids who are being sexually abused at home are far more likely to report the abuse when there is a SRO at the school. A good SRO can help kids make the right decisions in life and keep an eye out for any fledgling gang activity at the school.

    That being said, I want the SRO to have a good amount of real police experience first. Because while the social worker type aspects of the job (like I described above) are great, they are also there to protect the kids. I want my SRO to have been on manhunts for violent suspects before. I want them to have done a high risk stop on a stolen car that just did a driveby. I want them to have been in some no shit life threatening situations.

    Every department I know has a requirement of several years on patrol before you go to a specialty position. What does a school district police department of 6 officers do to get their officers real life experience in that kind of stuff?
