Not one but four sheriff’s deputies hid behind cars instead of storming Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School during last week’s school shooting, according to a new report. Sources from Coral Springs Police Department tell CNN that when officers arrived on the scene, they were shocked to find three Broward County Sheriff’s deputies behind their cars with their weapons drawn. The school’s armed resource officer, Deputy Scot Peterson was also outside — he resigned Thursday over his failure to act. The cops entered the building to engage the shooter on their own, and then a new batch of Broward County deputies arrived, and two of those officers — plus an officer from Sunrise, Florida — joined the police inside the building, the sources said. It’s unclear if the shooter was still inside at the time, CNN reports. Bad blood has been brewing between the two law enforcement groups ever since the Feb. 14 massacre. Coral Springs City Manager Mike Goodrum confronted Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel over the incident during a vigil the following day, saying injured kids could have been dying inside the building while the deputies held back, sources tell CNN. In response, Israel said Coral Springs cops first showed up after confessed gunman Nikolas Cruz had left the school. The sheriff — in comments to the Miami Herald — seemed to suggest that, even had these three deputies charged into Building 12 of Douglas HS, it would have been too late anyway. “We know it was approximately four minutes after the shooter departed the school when the first Coral Springs police officers arrived,’’ Israel told the paped. “We’re investigating every aspect of this.” A day after Goodrum’s confrontation with Israel, Coral Springs Police Chief Tony Pustizzi wrote in an internal memo: “I understand that another agency has given the impression that it had provided the majority of the rescue efforts, and that the tremendous work of the Coral Springs Police and Fire Departments has not been recognized.” “Please know that this issue will be addressed, and the truth will come out in time,” he added. The Coral Springs officers’ experiences will be included in a new report coming out next week, according to the news site. Poster Comment: Too dangerous in that school, those kids are on their own! And these heroes all went home safely to their families. /s

Even though the shooter had left, the Broward County Sheriff's Deputies still "feared for their lives" and remained safely behind their cars? No wonder there was less crime in the Wild West before the Sheriff showed up in town.
First responding officers are trained not to enter an active gunman type of incident unless there is active shooting going on. Officers are allowed officer safety minded tactical decisions IF people aren't actively dying. Dumbshit.
As opposed to people passively dying? Wounded students could have possibly been saved had the deputies entered sooner. Having said that, I can empathize with the emotions of, on a few minutes notice during an otherwise routine morning, having to make a decision to enter a building where an active shooter has opened fire. Though it would seem that entering the building against a tide of out flowing students would be, tactically, reasonably safe to do. The real solution, it seems, should be, and can only be to arm teachers. They are the one's who won't need to make any such decision as the fight will have come to them. Police simply won't be any help when that help is most needed, and where it is needed. Even if cops came fleeing into the scene as fast as they could, it wouldn't be fast enough, of course. And I suspect teachers would be more willing to risk their lives in such a scenario as they will have personal attachments to the students being fired upon. That's not a slam against cops. That's just normal "human nature". You are more likely to risk your life to save someone you know than someone you don't know.
Medical always comes after the scene is made safe enough to treat the injured... or YOU ARE MAKING THE SCENE POTENTIALLY WORSE. It has nothing to do with bravery. It's called common sense. Now, often times officers find ways to tactically reach victims with some kind of movable cover (like their patrol car) and extract the wounded to safety TO BE TREATED. The talking points you, DickTard and Stinky Pee Pee have been ranting on, is the same slanted bias yella bullshit that libtard MSM has been pushing since the school shooting. Yes the resource officer failed to act... but it is unknown if responding officers acted outside the scope of their training or improperly. Normally, officers won't enter without an organized strike team UNLESS THERE IS ACTIVE SHOOTING TAKEN PLACE.
Kids dying while the badged (and armed) "heroes" wait outside ensuring that they will fulfill their primary mission - to make it home safely at the end of the day.
Need a tissue? Your libtard anti gun fear mongering only works for the sheeple. School children and cops (44 shot and killed in 2017) will occasionally die for our freedoms. Suck it up, buttercup. Maybe you should have got off your computer chair and helped out. lol

You seem to be the one crying that the poor widdle badged "heroes" are being honestly portrayed as cowards - do they issue vaginas to these guys or do they have their own. Your libtard anti gun fear mongering only works for the sheeple. Anti-gun? Please post a link to where I have made any anti-gun statements. Oh - you can't? Then STFU. These cops had guns - yet they were more concerned about their own safety. School children and cops (44 shot and killed in 2017) will occasionally die for our freedoms. Schoolkids "dying for our freedoms"? Seems to me the agenda here is just the opposite, or can't you see that? Maybe you should have got off your computer chair and helped out. I'm sure that had you been at the scene, you would have cowered behind a car as you soiled your panties.
Need a tissue? I do,for the kids that die because cowardly shitheads with badges hide behind their cars hoping the shooter commits suicide instead of going in and taking him out,because "officer safety is the most important thing|"
