Orange County Public Schools Approve Creation Of Own Police Force

December 10, 2014 10:29 AM

Orlando, Fla. (CBS TAMPA) – Orange Orange County Public Schools, the tenth largest school district in the U.S., voted to establish its own police force in response to safety concerns prompted by the Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting.

Both Orange County Public School officials and the Orange County Sheriff’s Office say there has been no increase in violent crimes on school grounds, but district officials say the new officers will have arrest powers and be allowed to carry weapons on school property based upon external reviews of the 2012 Sandy Hook shooting that left 20 children and six adult staff members dead.

“There are threats all the time and we need a greater level of intelligence gathering,” school board Chairman Bill Sublette told My News 13. “We need a greater ability to access local, state and federal databases, none of which we can do without our own police force.”

What could go wrong?

[Pericles]

We now have a generation of people who do not know what it is like to go to school without going through metal detectors, have police roaming the halls, camera monitoring, and who know what else as prep for living life in a police state.

When I was a kid - didn't have any of that.

“We’re hoping that it actually lessens the number of arrests on our campuses day to day,” Sublette said.

SMH...

Nor I, yet it still felt like prison.

Another great con by those craving profits by the use of FEAR. This country is doomed, it truly has been molded into an Idiocracy.

And then these people will wonder why their property taxes just went up again.

The school board told WESH-TV (http://www.wesh.com/news/orange-county-school-district-votes-to-create-police-force/30149996) that the police plan will not affect the more than 180 school resource officers currently on district campuses, but will replace the 15 non-sworn security guards. Five new officers who are former local law enforcement will be on school grounds this year.


Orange County school officials say the police force has been budgeted and will cost $31,000 up-front, but an additional $40,000 will be needed for law enforcement certifications, new software and a $13,000 salary boost for current officers. :eek:

Just when I think it can't get any worse...


District officials say in addition to improved school safety, part of the plan is responding to the increasing amount of students processed through the school to the prison and juvenile justice pipelines.

Boom. Fucking pipelines.
