You know, during that tenure I've read alot of posts that range from very thoughtful to nonsense. Some use this Board as an outlet for their emotional expression and this story is one that, to those some, invites such expression. It took me just a minute to search the web and find the following quote:

"Shaner [School District Superintendent] sent a letter to Fox 2 which says: "The district has apologized for any perception that individuals in uniform are not welcome in the school. The district does not have a policy excluding individuals in uniform and will be working with administration and the firm that handles our security to make sure district policies are understood and communicated accurately."
