Maybe the sheriff allowed the shooting.

Now CNN reports that the Coral Springs police officers claim three other Broward County deputies were outside the school but failed to go inside as well. They quote “Coral Springs sources” who said the three “deputies had their pistols drawn and were behind their vehicles” when Coral Springs officers arrived. They said “not one of [the deputies] had gone into the school.”
Because they were all cowards? Or because the Sherriff was concerned for the safety of his men and is Now back peddling to save his own ass?

(CNN)When Coral Springs police officers arrived at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, on February 14 in the midst of the school shooting crisis, many officers were surprised to find not only that Broward County Sheriff's Deputy Scot Peterson, the armed school resource officer, had not entered the building, but that three other Broward County Sheriff's deputies were also outside the school and had not entered, Coral Springs sources tell CNN. The deputies had their pistols drawn and were behind their vehicles, the sources said, and not one of them had gone into the school.
With direction from the Broward deputies who were outside, Coral Springs police soon entered the building where the shooter was. New Broward County Sheriff's deputies arrived on the scene, and two of those deputies and an officer from Sunrise, Florida, joined the Coral Springs police as they went into the building.
Some Coral Springs police were stunned and upset that the four original Broward County Sheriff's deputies who were first on the scene did not appear to join them as they entered the school, Coral Springs sources tell CNN. It's unclear whether the shooter was still in the building when they arrived.
To me, It sounds like Boward county officers were instructed to wait for back up . That's the way it looks to me. Id like to hear the radios from this incident.

ABC News
Blasting a hole in President Donald Trump’s argument that arming a school like a bank would prevent kids with semi-automatic weapons from shooting up schools, Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel acknowledged the armed deputy at Parkland, FL’s Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School never entered the building where last week’s slayings were occurring.
Didn’t do much for NRA chief Wayne LaPierre’s gag about it taking a good guy with a gun to stop a bad guy with a gun either – LaPierre dusted that one off for his address to fans at the annual CPAC confab this morning in the Washington, DC area.

I'm not you are part of a lynch mob.
As more information is provided, Coral Springs PD made the entry into the school while at least four Deputies were barricaded behind their cars with pistols drawn. WTF, is that the sheriffs policy(?), why would they all not do something. The sheriff is a dirt bag and its beginning to look like a trickle down effect.

Too bad this loser lacks the decency to suck on tailpipe for what his inaction brought."
Who does?
If your characterization of him is accurate, it may just happen.

Ahhh no. The deputy was in no mortal danger and refused to engage. Very different if one is staring down a mass killer or in close proximity.

I was qouteing ABC that a good guy with a gun didn't stop a bad guy with a gun , Like I mentioned earlier. that this would be used against us .

Yes. And I was attempting to show thats it is bullshit for ABC to use this event for the arguement.

The Coral Gables cop I saw interviewed on TV said he heard the call while off duty, his wife worked at the school, and he rushed to the scene and entered the school with the guys from his department. Compare and contrast their actions with those of the Sheriff's Dept., a good guy with a gun putting down the rabid dog is the only thing that ends or prevents these disasters.

The thing is, what stopped all 4 officers from Boward from going in while the officers from Coral went in? Its very hard to imagine that all the officers from Boward are all cowards and decided on their own , against their training, to disregard their own procedures and stay outside.

I wish it weren't so, but it's not hard for me to imagine after witnessing the response to the ACA Shootings.

I said the same thing, but there is a strong counter argument that this is exactly why teachers should be armed because you cannot depend on law enforcement to protect you

I'll be anxious to see if Sheriff Israel ordered them to stay outside. You saw the picture of him posing with Hillary so I would not be surprised.

"If we are going to infringe on the Second Amendment, it has to be a policy that will work,"
We'll if the policy infringes then its unlawful and null and void Rubio. And this is why you didn't win the primary slick .. nobody wants to hear pandering and side stepping.

Something's funny about how quickly the media has all at once started calling these guys cowards.

Im telling ya man , its being spun in the press that the only solution is the banning of guns. They don't say it like that , but the conclusion people will reach on their own is obvious.

Oh I think its being played differently, We know that . But people who don't know much about guns may come to the conclusion that if the cops cant protect us from guns then we need to get rid of them.

No doubt it will be and those people are free to choose to be victims if they like.
Apparently this particular township is somewhat gun free and full of Dems ..

That's true, but this much bigger than that. The left is spinning this to gain political support for banning weapons.
