Summary LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) -- Los Angeles Unified School District Police officials are considering whether they need the armored vehicle and grenade launchers they received from the U.S. military. "I can't allow whatever political ramifications or analysis in Ferguson suggest how I want to make a decision on how to best make sure we respond at the LAUSD," Zipperman said. The chief says the tank will stay, but will only be deployed on his direct orders with the approval of the school superintendent.




I guess the school districts are thinking," why let the police forces have all the fun?"

Rent-a-cops with rockets. No way that could turn out wrong.

Since the public schools are simply extensions of the government, this isn't surprising.

So teachers aren't allowed to conceal carry with a permit to protect against mass shootings but they'll give a rent a cop a tank and rocket launcher? Now think logically, which one has the highest chance to go wrong?

Your school district is shite if you have to develop a rules of engagement policy utilizing a tank.

Is this the same school district (LA Unified SD) which issued school iPads to all the kids last year?

Seems like more dumb decisionmaking along those lines.

I think the rocket launchers are their to stop parents who want to spank their kids?
