'Utter fools': Stoneman Douglas students organize walk-out after security specialist 'reassigned'

We’ve been wondering two things about Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla., the site of a mass shooting in February: when would anyone be held accountable, and when’s CNN’s follow-up town hall now that we know the officer assigned to the school hid while other officers were instructed to stage around the building and wait while the shooting continued inside?

Finally, it looks like someone is being held accountable … if that’s an acceptable synonym for being reassigned to another building.

The Sun-Sentinel reports that three staffers and the school’s security specialist are being reassigned to other administrative locations. Among those staffers is assistant principal Jeff Morford, who reportedly told two students who brought their concerns about the killer to him to “Google autism.”

And now it looks like some students are trying to organize a student walk-out to protest the reassignments:

My classmates are now trying to schedule a walk out for tomorrow to bring back the incompetent school employees that were put on administrative reassignment today, pending investigation. What a disgrace! These people were warned about 181958 and did NOTHING! #FixIt pic.twitter.com/NkQ2JeX58r

Mr. Greenleaf, the head of security at MSD and the SRO who detained and interrogated me, was just put on administrative reassignment for possible wrong doing from February, 14 and before.

Good riddance!

These individuals were complicit due to Obama’s Promise Program. Just sad! This policy was failed from the start and unfortunately, disabled the ability to remove potential threats to our public education system.
