Liberals And The Knowledge Gap

[Penelope]

8. How did Obama and other brain-dead elites make it possible for Nikolas Cruz to obtain his weapons?


“….new discipline guidelines strongly recommending that the nation's schools use law enforcement measures and out-of-school suspensions as a last resort. Announced jointly by Duncan and then-Attorney General Eric Holder, the new procedures came as more than friendly guidance from Uncle Sam – they also came with threats of federal investigations and defunding for districts that refused to fully comply.” https://www.realclearinvestigations...cipline_policy_and_the_parkland_shooting.html


“…in just the first year after the Obama administration issued its anti-discipline edict, public schools failed to expel more than 30,000 students who physically attacked teachers or staff across the country. Previously, “if you hit a teach, you’re gone,” he said, but that is no longer the case.”
Ibid.



The Liberal approach to problems is simply to refuse to recognize the problem, i.e., shut your eyes real tight…..

Cruz was not in the Promise program.

 

[Moonglow]

The logical solution would be to teach minority students to commit less crime and they would avoid a higher arrest rate.
Liberals are really strange people.

No worse than a redundant troll that inundates every thread with rhetorical propaganda...

 

[J.E.D]

What did Cruz do AS A STUDENT at the high school that he would have been otherwise arrested for if not for this supposedly lenient Obama-era policy?

 

[Moonglow]

what about the center, you know the sane ones sandwiched in between you fucking nutzies?

/——/ The Center is occupied by those who can’t make up their minds on which way to lean. They wear plaid clothes and eat Neapolitan ice cream so not to offend.

Nothing wrong with ice cream unless it gives you da shitz...

1.I have said this before: if those on the Left knew as much as we on the Right, they’d be on the Right, too.
If you know all the pertinent facts, and you’re honest, your conclusions will be conservative.

This thread will prove it.


2.I saw Mark Glaze, former executive director of Michael Bloomberg’s Mayors Against Illegal Guns, and later Everytown for Gun Safety, on Tucker Carlson’s show, discussing the school shootings.
Glaze made all of the well-known arguments for gun control….and then Carlson asked him if he thought the Promise Program contributed to the horrifying incident.

He said he was unaware of the program, had never heard of it.
Just like most Liberals/Democrats.

This anti-gun, anti-NRA, anti-Bill of Rights spokesperson, unaware of the single greatest contributor to Nikolas Cruz’s ability to slaughter 17 human beings.


3. If you are a Democrat, a Liberal, a gun-control supporter….I’m betting that you are, also, unaware.
And I’ll bet that you are unaware of the fact that the actions of Barack Obama played a far greater role in the massacre than the NRA.
It's a fact.





4. Here's how that happened.
While puzzling over why black students had a graduation rate of only 61 percent compared to 81 percent for white students, it was determined that it was largely because of their arrest rates.
Another fact was revealed: “black students made up two-thirds of all suspensions during the 2011-2012 school year despite comprising only 40 percent of the student body.”
Obama Program May Have Helped Nikolas Cruz Slip Through the Cracks



5. Using the usual Liberal divining rod, and looking for ways to correct the behavior that led to suspensions and arrests,…. These deep thinkers deduced that it must be racial bias leading to the arrests.

6. Using the power, status and treasury of government….”President Obama’s program rewarded local governments with grants if they kept school arrests down.’




7.Get it?

Schools no longer suspended miscreants, and police….like the Broward Sheriff’s Department, no longer arrested those eligible.
Nikolas Cruz committed numerous acts that made him eligible for suspension and arrest…in a sane world.

But he wasn’t arrested, because of the Obama program.




You didn’t know this….did you?

Did you know that The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

You might be missing some information: Cruz was not part of the district’ PROMISE program.
Anybody pushing the story that he was part of that program is just flat out lying.
Get your news from trustworthy sources.

Look at the OP link. Gateway Pundit. This is just another hack piece from a right wing anti- American nut job.

Whenever Liberals can't deny the facts, they complain about the conduit of the facts.

“….new discipline guidelines strongly recommending that the nation's schools use law enforcement measures and out-of-school suspensions as a last resort.

Liberals are an existential threat to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

That's a lie.


"Broward County Likely ‘Inspiration’ for Obama School Discipline Policy to Report Fewer Arrests, Suspensions
But let me ask you something else. A lot of people in the community have noted that the Broward County School Board entered into an agreement when you were sheriff in 2013 to pursue the — quote — “least punitive means of discipline” against students.

This new policy encouraged warnings, consultations with parents and programs on conflict resolution, instead of arresting students for crimes."
Broward County Likely ‘Inspiration’ for Obama School Discipline Policy to Report Fewer Arrests, Suspensions | Breitbart

Miami news also says he wasnt part of promise.

Breitbart is too far to the right; you need to find more reputable news source.

Look at the dates for the program and the date of the massacre.


Then...admit you are wrong.

What did Cruz do AS A STUDENT at the high school that he would have been otherwise arrested for if not for this supposedly lenient Obama-era policy?

"Cruz assaulted students, cursed out teachers, kicked in classroom doors, started fist fights, threw chairs, threatened to kill other students, mutilated small animals, pulled a rifle on his mother, drank gasoline and cut himself, among other "red flags."
Threatening to kill someone is a felony. In addition to locking Cruz away for a while, having a felony record would have prevented him from purchasing a gun.
Cruz was never arrested. He wasn't referred to law enforcement. He wasn't even expelled."

9. Obama was the partner in crime for Nikolas Cruz.

Without the Obama/Democrat assistance, Cruz could not have obtained his weapons. This cannot be said about the NRA.

Notice how none of the drones will try to defend the Promise Program.....but are afraid to assign any blame to Obama.

Cowards.

"The Obama-era Departments of Education and Justice – under education secretary Arne Duncan and Attorney General Eric Holder –issued school guidelines in 2014 that claimed students of color are “disproportionately impacted” by suspensions and expulsions, a situation they said leads to a “school-to-prison pipeline” that discriminates against minority and low-income students.

According to the Obama administration’s 2014 “Dear Colleague” guidance, any school district whose disciplinary measures showed “disparate impact” – meaning a disproportionately greater number of minority students are affected – is open to investigation by the Departments of Justice and Education, regardless of whether the behavior leading to the discipline is unacceptable."

and for the moronic idea behind the "school-to-prison pipeline" policy that allowed Nikolas Cruz to remain free and obtain a weapon.

– A 2007 study by the Advancement Project and the Power U Center for Social Change says that for every 100 students who were suspended, 15 were Black, 7.9 were American Indian, 6.8 were Latino and 4.8 were white.

– The same study reports that the U.S. spends almost $70 billion annually on incarceration, probation and parole. This number lends itself to a 127% funding increase for incarceration between 1987-2007. Compare that to a 21% increase in funding for higher education in the same 20-year span.

Moron...it isn't a matter of joining the program...the program simply had the school administration refuse to have repeatedly violent students arrested even when they committed felonies...like the shooter did several time....there was no "joining" this program for students...why are left wingers such doofuses....

New laws drastically cut prosecutions of Texas students

Working as intended, two state laws passed in 2013 have fueled a larger-than-anticipated 83 percent decline in the number of Texas schoolchildren prosecuted in adult court for infractions such as disrupting a classroom, court figures show.

Including other misdemeanor school-based offenses, almost 90,000 juvenile cases were kept out of adult court by the new laws, which were written to encourage schools to handle most behavior problems internally instead of relying on police or the courts, two Texas House committees were told Wednesday.

“We were expecting a drop. I don’t think we were expecting that significant a drop in the first year,” said David Slayton, director of the state Office of Court Administration.

Snip

The laws, known as Senate Bills 393 and 1114, barred police officers from writing tickets for Class C misdemeanors that occur on school grounds, though traffic violations are exempt from the ban. Officers also cannot issue citations for school offenses such as causing disruptions in class or on a school bus.

Class C misdemeanors in Texas.

1.I have said this before: if those on the Left knew as much as we on the Right, they’d be on the Right, too.
If you know all the pertinent facts, and you’re honest, your conclusions will be conservative.

This thread will prove it.


2.I saw Mark Glaze, former executive director of Michael Bloomberg’s Mayors Against Illegal Guns, and later Everytown for Gun Safety, on Tucker Carlson’s show, discussing the school shootings.
Glaze made all of the well-known arguments for gun control….and then Carlson asked him if he thought the Promise Program contributed to the horrifying incident.

He said he was unaware of the program, had never heard of it.
Just like most Liberals/Democrats.

This anti-gun, anti-NRA, anti-Bill of Rights spokesperson, unaware of the single greatest contributor to Nikolas Cruz’s ability to slaughter 17 human beings.


3. If you are a Democrat, a Liberal, a gun-control supporter….I’m betting that you are, also, unaware.
And I’ll bet that you are unaware of the fact that the actions of Barack Obama played a far greater role in the massacre than the NRA.
It's a fact.





4. Here's how that happened.
While puzzling over why black students had a graduation rate of only 61 percent compared to 81 percent for white students, it was determined that it was largely because of their arrest rates.
Another fact was revealed: “black students made up two-thirds of all suspensions during the 2011-2012 school year despite comprising only 40 percent of the student body.”
Obama Program May Have Helped Nikolas Cruz Slip Through the Cracks



5. Using the usual Liberal divining rod, and looking for ways to correct the behavior that led to suspensions and arrests,…. These deep thinkers deduced that it must be racial bias leading to the arrests.

6. Using the power, status and treasury of government….”President Obama’s program rewarded local governments with grants if they kept school arrests down.’




7.Get it?

Schools no longer suspended miscreants, and police….like the Broward Sheriff’s Department, no longer arrested those eligible.
Nikolas Cruz committed numerous acts that made him eligible for suspension and arrest…in a sane world.



But he wasn’t arrested, because of the Obama program.




You didn’t know this….did you?

Did you know that The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

You might be missing some information: Cruz was not part of the district’ PROMISE program.
Anybody pushing the story that he was part of that program is just flat out lying.
Get your news from trustworthy sources.

I rest my case.

Moron....it wasn't a program the students joined, it was a program that guided the policies of the school administration....through this program created by obama, they refused to have repeatedly violent students arrested in order to keep their minority student aw breaking levels low......they didn't do this by helping them learn how to behave, they did this by simply not having them arrested...even when they attacked teachers and other students...

Well what do you suppose happens to kids when they go to prison??

They will get put in the NICS background check system...and won't be able to buy guns...like the shooter in Florida did.....saving 17 lives....right? But no, obama mandated not putting this kid in jail....he brought weapons to school more than once, threatened students and started fights...those are the "Classroom" disruptions....not throwing spitballs or pulling pigtails......
