While Major McDonald indicates that substantial resources will be prepared to respond, we cannot assure the safety of all participants without a coordinated plan involving onsite assets.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Then he listed the following security resources that were purportedly needed to defend the school board from concerned parents:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>3 LCSO deputies inside the Admin Building<\/li>\n<li>1 LCSO\/LCFR K-9 explosive sweep<\/li>\n<li>LCSO five-person Quick Response Force (QRF) onsite at the Admin Building<\/li>\n<li>Undercover LCSO deputies in Public Assembly Area at Admin Building<\/li>\n<li>LCSO CDU Team stood up and on standby at nearby location<\/li>\n<li>LCSO Special Operations Team on standby at nearby location<\/li>\n<li>Joint command post<\/li>\n<li>Onsite commander for unified decision making<\/li>\n<li>Joint briefing on security plan<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ziegler tried to put the sheriff at his beck-and-call, but it backfired spectacularly.

I have provided bulleted paraphrased statements which occurred randomly throughout the conversation\u201d:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>School board unilaterally decided to limit public comment<\/li>\n<li>School Board unilaterally decided to hire security firm with metal detector<\/li>\n<li>School Board unilaterally devised a security plan for Aug 10 SB<\/li>\n<li>School Board made all of these decisions without consultation with LCSO<\/li>\n<li>6 of 9 SB members brought this to bear by creating anti racist groups on social media<\/li>\n<li>LCSO has been made to appear as the muscle for school board and work at the school board\u2019s<br \/>\ndirection<\/li>\n<li>After June 22 \u2013 LCSO and Sheriff Chapman received national criticism for being \u201cbad guy\u201d at the meeting being blamed for what took place. He stated that some of t he comments included death threats. He continued t o say that he (Chapman) received all of the criticism and that the Superintendent and School Board took none of the push back from the community or national arena.<\/li>\n<li>I believe those people should have been allowed to speak (reference to the June 22, 2021 School Board meeting)<\/li>\n<li>Optics are that LCSO deprived citizens of their right to speak in public<\/li>\n<li>We did an investigation on the Facebook and the anti-racist School Board member social media group<\/li>\n<li>School board is f iring people up and calling LCSO to clean it up<\/li>\n<li>The plan for Aug 10\/11 puts LCSO in same position and I won\u2019t be put in t hat position again<\/li>\n<li>School board is being dismissive of people they don\u2019t agree with<\/li>\n<li>Very concerned about Beth Barts bringing people in from out of state<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The sheriff then summarily rejected the Loudoun County school board\u2019s \u201cextraordinary\u201d security request. The infamous school board meeting on June 22 that Sheriff Chapman refers to is one where a parent was arrested and removed from a meeting, per the request of the school board.<\/p>\n<p>The school board was unwilling to take the heat over the potential curriculum inclusion of CRT.<\/p>\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-0\" class=\"\" title=\"Twitter Tweet\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?creatorScreenName=sitsshow&amp;dnt=true&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=eyJ0ZndfZXhwZXJpbWVudHNfY29va2llX2V4cGlyYXRpb24iOnsiYnVja2V0IjoxMjA5NjAwLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X2hvcml6b25fdHdlZXRfZW1iZWRfOTU1NSI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJodGUiLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X3NwYWNlX2NhcmQiOnsiYnVja2V0Ijoib2ZmIiwidmVyc2lvbiI6bnVsbH19&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1407457942882897925&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fstillnessinthestorm.com%2F2021%2F10%2Fsheriffs-response-to-loudoun-school-boards-extreme-request-for-security-is-the-best-thing-youll-read-all-day%2F&amp;sessionId=b173e75b860a59a7cb9ab458b2d9b87c3b26a8d1&amp;siteScreenName=sitsshow&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=1890d59c%3A1627936082797&amp;width=500px\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-tweet-id=\"1407457942882897925\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When former Virginia state senator Dick Black spoke out, the school board threatened to end public comment.
