So this is the latest goalpost move...of course, with the midterms coming up repubs can't look like they're blaming local law enforcement, so they blame it on Obama with little to no proof other than Op-eds and a NRA paid talking head. No doubt it'll be the talk on Faux News as well, soon if not already. So predictable...Obama shares the blame for Parkland: https://www.realclearinvestigations...cipline_policy_and_the_parkland_shooting.html
Despite committing a string of arrestable offenses on campus before the Florida school shooting, Nikolas Cruz was able to escape the attention of law enforcement, pass a background check and purchase the weapon he used to slaughter three staff members and 14 fellow students because of Obama administration efforts to make school discipline more lenient.
Documents reviewed by RealClearInvestigations and interviews show that his school district in Florida’s Broward County was in the vanguard of a strategy, adopted by more than 50 other major school districts nationwide, allowing thousands of troubled, often violent, students to commit crimes without legal consequence. The aim was to slow the "school-to-prison pipeline."
“He had a clean record, so alarm bells didn’t go off when they looked him up in the system,” veteran FBI agent Michael Biasello told RCI. “He probably wouldn’t have been able to buy the murder weapon if the school had referred him to law enforcement."
