THAT’S BECAUSE THOSE 4 BROWARD COUNTY SHERIFF’S DEPUTIES ARE PATHETIC LOSERS WHO MAKE LAW ENFORCEMENT LOOK BAD. LIKE THEIR BOSS, SHERIFF SCOTT ISRAEL DOES. Sources: Coral Springs police upset at some Broward deputies for not entering school.

You don’t need guns, they told me. Civilized people know the police will protect them, they told me. Anything else is just gun crazy paranoia, they said.

Plus: “The resentment among Coral Springs officials toward Broward County officials about what they perceived to be a dereliction of duty may have reached a boiling point at a vigil the night of February 15, where, in front of dozens of others, Coral Springs City Manager Mike Goodrum confronted Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel. A source familiar with the conversation tells CNN that Goodrum was upset that the Broward deputies had remained outside the school while kids inside could have been bleeding out, among other reasons.”

Note that this was before CNN’s shameful “Town Hall,” but CNN either didn’t have a clue, or was happy not to share the news with its viewers while giving that contemptible weasel, Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel, a platform to posture and blame others.

But then, CNN is to journalism what those Broward deputies are to law enforcement: A contemptible example of failure. After that “Town Hall,” CNN needs to do a primetime mea culpa and apology. It won’t.
