Apparently, the only purpose of the presense of a uniformed, armed certified police office on middle school and high school campuses is to give a false sense of security to parents. These SRO's cost a great deal and it is easy service for these glorified crossing guards.
Moreover, these cops wind up arresting kids for minor violations and getting the kids into the "system" that the kids can never get out of. It causes many kids to simply get squashed by these uselss cops!

You are painting with a very broad brush and your vitriol diminishes your credibility. You want the SROs to ignore violations committed by students? Do you believe anarchy in schools is acceptable? If a kid is following the rules, there should be no problems with the SRO.
