Officers in Texas displayed startling belligerence at times, grabbing or tackling students a fraction of their size over misconduct that often appeared to be minor. Children in elementary school, including one as young as 6, were handcuffed. Teenagers were arrested, charged with crimes and even jailed. In the most extreme cases, they wound up in hospitals, bruised or concussed, after being body-slammed or shocked by Tasers, which are prohibited in the state’s juvenile detention facilities but allowed in its public schools.
Three decades of republican control.
Texas school police pepper-sprayed, tackled, and tasered
Hell yeah
students
Oh lame
Why would they have cops as the answer since it was cops that didn’t do anything at Uvalde in the first place?
It seems to be a typical conservative approach: „X is gonna solve the Problem“
(X does not solve the problem)
„WE NEED MORE X TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM!!“
Repeat ad infinitum
I’m sorry, school police?
Like actual uniformed municipal/state officers whose regular post is in the school?
Horrifying that anyone is okay with this, even without the excessive force.
