CPD superintendent says police will “adjust” if school resources officers removed from CPS; CTU makes security demands – CBS2 (Chicago)

A letter from the Chicago Teachers Union reads, in part, "The Chicago Teachers Union believes that CPS has a critical role to play in  preventing violence and responding to the resulting trauma when violence occurs in school communities. The Union expects that our bargaining will include, amongst other things...sustainable longer term infrastructure and trauma support; options and resources for recognition and memorialization; repairs and replacement of interior doors, locks and intercom systems;...increased and improved campus lighting, cameras, and security alarms; and redistribution of security teams to maximize safety."

Well, when Old Joe was a kid “school resource officers” didn’t exist. We did have Sister Mary Knuckles though.

Any bets on a private security company taking over in the schools, one that happens to be a Johnson contributor, has ties to CTU, etc.

Yeah, taking the Police out of the public schools…that makes sense. Of course it does. After all, all of the other decisions and directions this government has done over the past 3 years has made sense…yep, lets do it. How bad could it be?
