Texas’s response to school shootings was as predictable as it was doomed to produce only more violence in schools — violence by cops.

Not surprised. Nothing gets a cop more rock hard than being able to bully somebody weaker than them.

There are horrific details. Kids are routinely slammed to the ground for minor misbehavior. Police punch children in the face. They shock students with Tasers for being in the wrong place. Or point guns at unarmed teens. Cops put handcuffs on a 6-year-old who later cried to his father, “The police wants me to die!” In some cases, low-level disciplinary infractions that should lead to no more than a trip to the principal’s office left children facing criminal charges; the well-documented school-to-prison pipeline in all its ignominy.

Gotta keep those private prisons stocked full future prisoners slaves.

And there is no mention in the Times investigation of the demographic profiles of the children abused by cops, but the videos in the report overwhelmingly show what appear to be nonwhite children enduring violent police abuse.

I'm shocked! Well not really shocked.

The real reason they are in schools, not to protect but rather get kids used to their authority.

Nah, I think the purpose of the school to prison pipeline is to keep a percent of black people enslaved for corporations
