Why did these cops in South Carolina swarm a local high school with their guns drawn?
Why, drugs, of course.
A drug sweep Wednesday morning at a South Carolina school has some parents and students questioning police tactics.
Surveillance video from Stratford High School in Goose Creek shows 14 officers, some with guns drawn, ordering students to lie the ground as police searched for marijuana. Students who didn’t comply with the orders quickly enough were reportedly handcuffed.
Police didn’t find any criminals in the armed sweep, but they say search dogs smelled drugs on a dozen backpacks.
The school’s principal defended the dramatic sweep.
Of course he did. Still feel comfortable sending your kids to the local detention center…oops, I mean public school?
Oh, make sure you watch the video.
