Promises, promises … Obama’s youth Promise program caused the Florida school killer to not be entered into the criminal justice system. Arrested multiple times, the young man was able on 10 occasions to buy guns. He killed 17 students from his school.
Senator Mario Rubio of Florida plans to change the Promise program so school districts can make different decisions so that law enforcement is alerted to dangerous and violent behavior:
RUBIO: I intend to propose changes to the federal youth PROMISE Program so that a school district plan under this program does not delay and does not discourage law enforcement from being alerted to dangerous and violent or hazardous behavior. This deranged killer was able to buy guns on 10 separate occasions because he would have passed every — any background check because none of the stuff that was known about him was reported to that system
