Omaha police agreed this week to stop carrying gloves that can deliver electric shocks to students in the halls of Nebraska’s largest public school district.
The decision affecting most Omaha middle and high schools came after The Associated Press first revealed Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s plan to give officers the gloves, which are known as G.L.O.V.E.s or Generated Low Output Voltage Emitters. The devices have also been used in recent years by some jails.
Omaha Superintendent Matthew Ray requested that police working in the schools, known as school resource officers, stop using the gloves. Omaha Police agreed.
American culture seems to have nothing left in it besides the layers of violence.
Important to note that it’s typically violence against people who can’t really push back without risking getting killed.
It’s time to make bullies afraid again, but I don’t know how without starting a total escalation.
Can’t believe a nation founded on slavery and baptized in blood would come to this.
This was an example of American corruption. A school official probably has a friend who is involved with the shock glove company and got kick backs for buying weapons to use on children.
then give it back. wear your own shock gloves and give the school cops a pat on the back fo ‘keeping kids safe’ or whatever it is they do when they are attacking parents from trying to save their kids
Im surprised school shootings is news at this point. Seems to be like a weekend event.
Did you try (and somehow failed) to write “weekly”?
Do you not have a fun weekend life? Going out with friends? This comment is from someone who’s weekends are normal and uneventful.
A bunch of performative cruelty.
