well the deputy nothing, except it' goes to pattern.no he didn't. bad deputy. but what does that have to do with the Promise program? who is using the promise program as a defense/excuse? i guess i don't get where that is coming from either.I can only answer to that with which I've read. It appears, again to me, that there is no promise program. Instead, the promise program is simply a way for the sheriff's department to avoid confrontation. I mean, the deputy didn't run in and try and save any kids right? Isreal is a blank check.great. i get that. but i see it tied to obama's PROMISE program so i guess i'm asking if you believe it is - if not, i'll move on. if so, how?well perhaps it is as simple as the sheriff's office ignored the kids repeated bad behavior. It wasn't documented nor is there any information on Cruz going through any such program as what was supposed to happen to students who fell in the program. The lack of any follow through or punishment allowed the boy to buy a gun. That's really all one has to know. Punishment would have put something on his record. And ineligible to buy a gun.where in the promise program does it say to not punish kids or hold them accountable for their behavior?where we state what?
If they are unwilling to go in to confront a kid shooting, perhaps The Broward County is using the Promise Program as a crutch to do nothing with students reported by the school. Again, has nothing to do with the shooting itself rather the lack of action against Cruz conduct in the previous year allowed Cruz to have a clean record and thus allowing him to purchase a gun. Not use it. To Purchase. I have my doubts after listening to the Sheriff Isreal, they do much. After the shooting one of his deputies watching the school was found asleep in his car. wow. Such confidence that inspires.
The real promise of Broward County's PROMISE program | The Broad Center
"PROMISE is just one part of Broward County’s school discipline approach and applies only in select cases involving minor infractions.
Preventing Recidivism through Opportunities, Mentoring, Interventions, Supports and Education, or PROMISE, is not the sole policy by which Broward addresses student discipline. PROMISE provides alternative supports through a mentorship and education program for students who have committed minor non-violent offenses that previously resulted in arrests and suspensions — such as vandalism causing less than $1,000 in property damage, petty theft, shouting profanity and throwing spitballs. As the name of the program implies, the goal is to keep students in school and prevent future infractions."
