“The sheriff who was suspended over his handling of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School massacre, where 17 people were killed, is suing to get his job back. Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel was suspended for his alleged poor leadership in the moments leading up to and during the deadly school shooting in Parkland, Florida last year. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis took action just three days after being sworn into office in January and suspended Israel from his elected position. Ina lawsuit filed on Thursday, Israel's attorneys said the governor suspended the sheriff for political reasons…” https://mol.im/a/6784903 Serious about crackers | |||

Simply awful. Israel should crawl into a hole and disappear, but instead chooses to play the victim. | |||

Agreed. Another point to note, the Broward County School Board recently voted to keep Robert Runcie, the Broward County Schools Superintendent who's every bit as responsible for the Parkland shooting as Israel is. That county is severely sick in the head. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom. Every man should have several guns.

Edited to add: I had the date wrong, this is from March of 2018, not 2019. https://www.sun-sentinel.com/l...-20180307-story.html Two Miramar SWAT officers suspended for heading to Parkland massacre Linda Trischitta Contact Reporter South Florida Sun Sentinel March 7, 2018 8PM When a gunman started shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, two Miramar SWAT team members did what comes naturally: They went to help. Now they’ve been suspended for it. The officers did not have permission to respond to the shooting at Parkland on Feb. 14, when 17 people were killed. And that created an officer safety issue and left them unaccountable for their actions, according to their police department. But their union reacted differently. “While it may have been a violation of policy to not notify their supervisors that they were going there, their intentions were brave and heroic, I think,” Broward County PBA President Jeff Marano said Wednesday. The SWAT officers who responded were Detective Jeffrey Gilbert and Detective Carl Schlosser. One of them told supervisors he was in the Coral Springs area when the gunfire happened; it’s not known where the other drove from, police spokeswoman Tania Rues said. “They were both close by [the high school],” Rues said. A third SWAT member, Officer Kevin Gonzalez, was accused of being linked to several social media posts that put the city and police in a negative light, and was suspended for violating the department’s social media policy and the code of conduct, Rues said. She said she “could not comment further on where he may have posted information about the mass shooting or what was written.” All three were notified Feb. 22 of their indefinite removal from what their department called a “privileged program” and were ordered to surrender their SWAT-issued rifles, but they remain on active duty for their other assignments, Rues said. The afternoon of the shooting, Miramar police placed the SWAT team on stand-by in case a request came from the Broward Sheriff’s Office to assist. That call for the team never came, Rues said. The Broward Sheriff’s Office said Wednesday it could not confirm whether anyone spoke with Miramar that day, but said Miramar’s SWAT team was “not needed” during the incident. Miramar Police sent a victim’s advocate to help console victims’ families and officers to help direct traffic, Rues said. The instinct to run toward danger is a common one in police officers, seen often during terrorist attacks and mass shootings. But during the Jan. 6, 2017, shootings at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, over 2,000 cops responded to the original report of gunfire and false reports of additional shots fired, according to a report by the Broward Sheriff’s Office. Five people were killed and six others wounded in the rampage. “Police officers have an inherent bias for action, and the minute they hear there’s a violent incident underway their immediate inclination is to go to it and try to stop the violence that is occurring,” Jim Bueermann, president of the Police Foundation, a Washington, D.C.-based police research organization, told the South Florida Sun Sentinel last June. “And we want that in police officers. The problem is being able to channel that.” But police response plans around the country have been changed to avoid having cops swarm to scenes. A crowd of arriving law enforcement can jam roads that ambulances need to use, overwhelm radios and in general, add to the confusion of the police response. Lessons learned from the Aurora, Colo. movie theater shooting and the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport shooting “clearly demonstrate that a controlled, organized response is what is most effective,” Rues said.This message has been edited.

That is some BULLSHIT! This is just CYA and deflection by that police department who had their officers hiding and not responding.  | |||

Israel loses in Fl Supreme Court. MIAMI (AP) - The Florida Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled against a sheriff who fought his removal from office after the governor claimed he failed to prevent last year's Parkland school shooting. Florida's highest court agreed that Gov. Ron DeSantis was within his authority to suspend Scott Israel as Broward County sheriff earlier this year. The justices noted that under the Florida Constitution, the state Senate is responsible for deciding whether the removal should be permanent. "Today's Florida Supreme Court opinion leaves no doubt of my authority as governor to suspend a government official for neglect of duty and incompetence," DeSantis said in a prepared statement. "Scott Israel failed in his duties to protect the families and students of Broward County, and the time for delay tactics is at an end. I look forward to the Florida Senate resuming the process of formal removal."

I hope former sheriff Israel is coming out of his own pocket for the lawyer to fight the removal by the Governor. He failed the children he failed his deputies he failed his constituents. He should just fade away and enjoy his retirement... "Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor.” Robert A.

Synopsis: The do-nothing school resource officer is being charged criminally for his failure to act. I would have never predicted this development. I will be following it with much interest. ► 6.4/93.6 ___________ “We are Americans ….

Isn't it interesting how it takes them this long to prosecute the guilty but only days to persecute the innocent via gun control legislation or even conversation? You’re a lying dog-faced pony soldier | |||

+1. What a fuckin pussy. He shoulda changed his name & disappeared immediately after. No excuse for not running to the aid of those kids. If my kid was a victim in this shooting, I’m not sure I couldn’t confront this POS & give him the what-for. He was a cop for decades, taking a paycheck & sworn to protect. Then the first time he is needed, he hides like a coward & retires the next day. He’s a national disgrace. | |||
