How right you are about FOX NEWS, we only need CNN, MSNBC, to tell us the news, I mean LIBERAL news outlets never do that kind of stuff. They never go overboard and get caught lying. They sure wouldnt take clips and cut them to make up stuff either. Kill the Fox Reporters for treason. Liberals rule.

I think I might get upset if someone dressed like this was walking toward my kid's school.

Come on. You honestly think this guy was dressed like this? Really?

Let me ask this, what if say an Military person was dropping off their kids before heading to base or work, in uniforms similar to swat?

I'd say it is HIGHLY unlikely that's how he was dressed to drop his kid off. Pure speculation on my part, but I'd be shocked if that were the case.

If the principal had any gonads (assuming it's a male), he'd have informed the complaining parents that the guy was the parent of a student at the school, who sometimes drops his child off on his way to/from work and that he is a police officer/swat team member.

We don't know. That's my point. (Perhaps he was -- perhaps he was going to a training exercise.)

 

Let me put it another way: Do you think that a "regular" police officer dropping off his child at school would have elicited this type of response in law-and-order Arizona?

 

Pure speculation on my part, but it appears there's more to this story than what Fox TV is reporting.

Honestly, with how dang idiotic our country has become, yes, I think the majority of the public school outrage that makes headlines is nothing more than ignorant "adults" who should've never reproduced in the first place looking for something to complain about.

 

What more could there be to the story? He can dress however he wanted. He was in his work uniform. He's an officer of the law. He dropped his kid off wearing said uniform. Some ignorant overprotective parents complained. The principal caved because he has no backbone to speak of. That about sum it up?

From a news story: "James Holmes (the Colorado movie-theater mass-murderer) was arrested outside the theater near his car, dressed in head to toe body armor and wearing a police-style helmet."

 

Your turn.

Here's something I learned a long, long time ago.

 

Females have gonads, too.

From a news story: "James Holmes (the Colorado movie-theater mass-murderer) was arrested outside the theater near his car, dressed in head to toe body armor and wearing a police-style helmet."

 

Your turn.

 

You're smarter than that....Really? Comparing a officer of the law in uniform with a mass murderer? Possibly the most off base comment I've ever seen on here.

So tell me, how are school kids to determine when someone dressed like a swat officer is real and when he's a fake? Uh ... that's my point. Sheesh.

They knew he was a police officer... How in the world is that the same as a mass murderer?

What are the school kids going to do to stop a "fake" one? Nothing? Then if the school knows this guys drops his kid off everyday, what is the issue?

When did I say the kids are supposed to? I don't care what they think. They went home and complained to their parents, who complained to the school. If the principal had a set of stones, like I said earlier, he'd have told them it was the parent of another student and he was a swat team member. Issue resolved without it becoming a news story, but that'd be the logical responsible way to handle the situation, not telling him to not come to school in uniform.

The fact that someone on BGP is actually defending these parents is just as alarming as these parents complaining about this.
