Sam Watkins startled many Crotonites with back-to-back letters in The Gazette calling for SROs in our schools, then rescinding that position. Studies show limited evidence that SROs stop violence.
I love what you’re doing here they should be named and shamed they have a duty to report to the residents who are the real owners of Croton. With all the crap Chief Miller H.L. and his donut crew put us through I wouldn’t be surprised if there were several other deals being negotiated without the taxpayers of the village having a clue. They are not very eager to talk about 1 half moon bay???? That’s the definition of corruption! I wish residents of the Village a Happy Healthy Holiday and a Happy and safe New Year! Don’t tolerate politicians jerking you around it’s not right!!! Stand up for your village or before you know it the only grass that can be cut with a gas mower will be Dobbs Field! I thought of a solution claim eminent domain on one Half Moon Bay add it to the park done!
All due respect to Sam Watkins, I think he was right the first time. A locked front door is no deterrent to a psychopath bent on murder. I agree with Officer Ward that an SRO would definitely be a deterrent. And I agree with Sam’s original statement that there can be no budget concerns that can allow our kids to be less safe in an age where we are all wondering if we are next.
Here’s an idea: a 500% federal tax on arms sales to be used directly for providing school protection in all schools nationwide.
We tax cigarettes heavily to reduce the damage that they do. Why not firearms?
Thanks for your comment. The tax idea is very interesting. I wonder if that has been tried anywhere? I can imagine the NRA would scream bloody murder if so.
