well on one hand i'm no longer feeling numb to current events. on the other hand i'm no longer feeling numb to current events.
#cw violence
#these tags get really upsetting please read at your own risk
#i know i'm preaching to the choir here but the police are not only useless but actively harmful.
#forty minutes before they got into the school
#minimum. forty minutes minimum.
#and in the meantime they were arresting and restraining family members who were trying to get into the school to save their kids
#literally. that detail just came out last night. and i can't get over it.
#they spent their time not trying to get in but preventing others from getting in.
#and the armed sro did little to nothing.
#i know people know sros are harmful but even statistically (not anecdotally) speaking the only things sros have been proven to do are
#1) reduce small acts of violence (fights stabbings etc) and 2) increase rates of discipline suspension and expulsion for students of color
#that's it. there's no statistical evidence that they do anything else.
#like i knew they were worse than useless but i didn't realize there was actual data to back it up
#most of them also get no school-specific training by the way. they're literally just cops plopped into schools. they know NOTHING about kids
#and all this bs about how brave police are to put their lives on the line every day. when they didn't even go into the school right away.
#they think their lives are more important than those of children. and they let those kids die.
#i don't know how many they could have saved but. they could have acted so much faster.
#i'm thinking about when my school did a lockdown drill and didn't tell us it was a drill so we would 'take it seriously'
#and how terrified i was sitting there with 35 kids hiding out of sight thinking about how i'd have to charge a shooter if they came in.
#it was 15-20 minutes and it was one of the most stressful experiences of my life.
#and those kids and teachers sat there while the cops did worse than nothing. for minimum 40 minutes.
