Seems to me that a cop with 30 years under his belt, working at a school, was thinking "gravy train" until retirement.
Another sickening phase is swaggering around basking in the awards accolades while deep inside his guts he knew he was a coward.  As has been said, work at the library, Veterans Hall, Hospice, old folks homes, staying put when you know you will fail, is a huge selfish, uncaring, liability, look what it cost the kids................................................... gunner, Too bad you, with your skill set, or someone like you, couldn't have been there. That little perp may have gotten a half a clip off before he got ventilated. But, they don't want professionals, not aggressive types... Hmmm... DF I would have gladly left this spinning rock for those kids that day DF, and I cant stand being around kids, they get on my nerves terribly, [read, wc fields] You, your lovely Wife and I have conversed calmly across a dinner table, even in that relaxed setting I dont think you could see any yellow, I have to wonder what the interviewers are looking for when they hire these guys, someone has got to wake up and take a look at the man before giving him a set of keys. Perhaps in the fx, employment contracts with SROs should have a clause that leaves them liable to parents for such actions, or at least loss of pension funds associated with that job? Jag, that's what I meant yesterday by saying any pension/retirement due this creep should go to the Coaches family, he shielded kids and lost his life for it, UNARMED!!!!!

What if he was in fact told to stand down? In that situation what if you were told to stand down? What would YOU do? I for one would say [bleep] the protocol, and go in.... You would, indeed, as would a bunch here on this forum. "Stand down" sounds too much like Benghazi. Same mind set that's getting good people killed. DF Agreed. What other kind would even contemplate such a ridiculous possibiity?

Guess one never knows until put in the situation, have only looked at the wrong end of a firearm 3 times in life, only once that shots were actually fired
But god help me I’d like to think I’d have rushed the guy with a textbook if that was all available, better to die one good death than to die over again and again each night
God rest and hold those children. My heart grieves that they were let down by so many

I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

Now CNN has azzhats on there saying if the resource officer couldn't do anything about the pos shooter, then how are armed teachers?
I would like someone in my kids school armed and trained to hunt down and kill a shooter. And the real point, the one that CNN is avoiding and repackaging, is not that the SRO couldn't do anything, but that he didn't....... So if that might happen, decent odds of real safety depends on multiple levels of prevention, not just one. The outcome of this scenario should actually bolster the argument for multiple armed people on school campuses.
Now with even more aplomb

I know plenty of WOMEN that would of charged that dikbag. Armed or not. My own mother, a teacher, I can guarantee you would not of let that call go unanswered.
You don't need warriors, you just need a soul devoid of cowardice in the face of violence. If this report is true, that guy is not only a poor excuse for a man, but a sorely lacking human being.

I'm not sure you will here the story from the coward himself..........I suspect he will eat his service weapon before that happens.

Let's say the officer killed the punk, either before the first victim or after the last one. The narrative would be police brutality and more hate for cops. He probably would have still been dismissed from his job and sued by someone. Maybe lose either way.
I don't know. And only a few here REALLY know what happens when bullets start flying.
God bless them.
But, I'm not one, so I can't say.

No, I cannot agree with that. The car and knife attack , recently on OSU campus, was stopped in A couple of minutes, By one nearby Police officer responding on foot, Who shot the knife wielding man . That police officer is Regarded as a local hero, And has difficulty buying his own beer.

It's really not that complicated. It's funny to see the thin blue line backing him with a multitude of lame excuses. He had 2 choices, go in or stay out. He chose to stay out.

That's just a ridiculous fantasy. Sure, there would have been a few deviant retards trying to second guess the heroism, but 99.5% would have understood this guy was a hero, instead of the despicable coward he's proved himself as.
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

They'll use it as proof that security doesn't work. I don't know if even the baddest of asses could have done much in the situation.
7 minutes of hell.
I have to believe people that pull these kinds of mass murders are cowards of the highest order. One shot in Cruz's direction would have most likely sent him scurrying like the cockroach he is. DMc

Only thing that officer was going to engage is if an armed citizen tried to get into the school to actually help.

When James Hodgkinson opened up, with a rifle, on Republican Lawmakers engaged in a softball game, 2 Capital Police moved forward to engage him in a gun fight. Zero concern for their own safety. I have little doubt that both of these officers would have entered the school, with zero concern for their own safely, and would have engaged the shooter.
That's what real hero's do, not the ones who simply show up for work.
Peterson will have to live out his life wondering why he wasn't more like the Capital Police Officers and why he choose to hide outside.

Sheriff Israel has stated that the video recordings showing deputy Peterson's activities during the incident might not ever be "disclosed".

Whats funny is the number of folks here who would die saving the kids; but yet, are willing to make them wait until they're 21 to own a gun.
