Florida Shooting, School Security Officer Resigns For Hiding During The Attack by Explorers(m): 9:05am On Feb 23, 2018
The armed deputy who was on campus at Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school when a gunman massacred 17 people stood outside the building as it occurred and did not go in to engage the shooter, the Broward County sheriff, Scott Israel, said on Thursday.


The armed security guard did nothing to stop the attack, instead hiding from gunman Nikolas Cruz when he opened fire, killing 17 on February 14.

Scot Peterson, the school's resource officer, did not confront the gunman and instead stood positioned outside the school during the massacre, Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel said Thursday.


The 54-year-old 'never went in,' Israel explained, citing security footage, and adding that he was armed and in uniform when bullets started to fly.

And in an interview with the New York Times, Coral Springs Officer Tim Burton revealed Peterson hid from Cruz when the teenager started shooting.


Deputy Scott Peterson resigned from the department on Thursday after being told he would be suspended, Israel said.


He did not say if Peterson would face criminal charges.

Life is lived but once cool

You don't get to re-spawn after death like in video games. cool


Confronting an insane guy with a semi automatic all alone?

Sorry I will pass. cool

I have kids I want to see get married.

I want grandkids to hold in my hands

I have a wife I'll like to keep warm every night

They say life isn't a bed of roses
But these are moments that make it worthwhile. cool

I die today confronting that loose canon
Before the end of the year there will be another even bigger shooting
So what's the point.

That is why the white race would always be superior. They have this sense of dignity and shame that is quite alien to this clime.

This is a mere school security officer resigning for failure to perform his duties. That can never happen here. Even a police man can't try it. Resign? His premise would be "I no come this world come die". And it's quite sad. .

So many reasons to be ashamed of this country. Anyone who tells you they are proud is lying or insane.

Lol.

He acted out of fear for his life.

He wasn't properly trained though you can't expect a security guard at a school to act like a marine.

What he did was shameful cos he was armed and supposed to protect the kids with his life if necessary that's what he signed for.

However in our country the police will be On top of the situation as investigations are on going.

That would be the end of the story.

In other news

Girls were kidnapped from a school and they cannot even tell how many are missing they are all wringing thier hands.

How on earth do they register them for external examinations. This country is cursed
