When asked whether they would like the SRO Program to continue in their school only 7% of the students said no.
Apparently the feelings of 7% of students is more important than the physical safety and student/police relationships of the majority.
76% of parents surveyed said they felt having an SRO in their child’s school made it a safer place. 78% said they would like the SRO Program to continue in their child’s school, while 8% did not.
Why does such a small number of parents against the SRO program overrule the vast majority that are for the program?
They have media and political influence, and know how to leverage it. Pure and simple. They also, in general, don't have kids in the worst schools in Downsview and Scarborough who bear the brunt of this.
It really is insane and undemocratic.
