Judge: Cops, schools had no duty to protect Parkland students from shooting

    GOPUSA Staff Sun Sentinel (Fort Lauderdale, Fla.) 6:55 am December 19, 201819 comments

A federal judge says Broward schools and the Sheriff’s Office had no legal duty to protect students during the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.

U.S. District Judge Beth Bloom dismissed a suit filed by 15 students who claimed they were traumatized by the crisis in February. The suit named six defendants, including the Broward school district and the Broward Sheriff’s Office, as well as school deputy Scot Peterson and campus monitor Andrew Medina.

Bloom ruled that the two agencies had no constitutional duty to protect students who were not in custody.

Long standing principle. Ain't right, but that Is just the way it is.

Can't sue the police for failing to protect you.

In Vol 2 the weapons come out in a winner take all war on two fronts.

Vol 3 opens with the rigged murder trial of the villain in a Viking Court under Viking law to set the stage for the hero's own murder trial.

But we still have to pay them.  So that basically makes them parasites with guns.

LOL. An Obama appointee is all of a sudden worried about the Constitution. What a dirty filthy whore.

When a government declares schools to be "gun-free zones", then they are either relegating the duty of protecting students and teachers to the police, or else leaving them intentionally defenseless. 

Which is it?

"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn
