In a shocking revelation, Vice President Kamala Harris has been exposed for advocating policies that could endanger our children. Comments from 2019 have resurfaced, showing Harris supporting the removal of police officers from schools, a move that could leave students vulnerable to the very threats that have already claimed too many young lives.
JT Lewis, whose brother Jesse was tragically killed in the Sandy Hook shooting, expressed his outrage on X, stating, “My brother was killed in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting because of liberal policies like the one Kamala is pushing here… I wish there had been a police officer there to protect him. Students need more protection, not less!”

The comments in question were made by Harris during her 2020 presidential campaign at Benedict College in South Carolina. She spoke of “demilitarizing” schools, a euphemism for stripping away the very security measures that could prevent another tragedy. Harris’s focus was on what she perceives as “inequities” in school discipline, particularly affecting Black and Brown boys, rather than on the safety of all students.
Her stance was not just about removing police but also about reducing juvenile incarceration, arguing for less incarceration and an end to solitary confinement for juveniles. While these might sound compassionate, they ignore the reality that without proper security and consequences for actions, school environments can become chaotic and dangerous.
Fox News Digital attempted to get clarification from Harris’s campaign on whether she still supports these policies, but received no response. This silence is deafening, especially when parents like Ryan Petty and Andrew Pollack, who lost their daughters in the Parkland shooting, have publicly condemned her views.
Petty tweeted, “Wreckless. Radical. Kamala wants to make schools less safe. Your kids aren’t safe with Kamala Harris in office,” while Pollack added, “This is sickening. My daughter was killed because Parkland didn’t have enough security. We need more school resource officers — not fewer!”

The timing of Harris’s comments was particularly irresponsible, coming just before the 2020 riots following George Floyd’s death, which saw calls to “defund the police.” This movement led to many school districts across the country cutting ties with law enforcement, only to see a rise in school violence, forcing many to reverse these decisions.
Education Week reported in 2022 that at least 50 school districts had either removed officers or slashed their budgets, only to regret it as school violence spiked. This backtracking on security measures underscores the folly of Harris’s original stance.
Now, as Harris steps into the presidential race following Biden’s withdrawal, her past comments on school safety come under renewed scrutiny. They reveal a pattern of prioritizing ideological purity over the practical safety needs of American students. This is not just a policy misstep; it’s a failure of leadership that could have dire consequences for our nation’s youth.
It’s clear that if we want our schools to be safe havens for learning, not battlegrounds for political ideologies, we must reject the dangerous policies Harris once championed. Our children deserve better than to be pawns in a political game where their safety is the stake.
