last month following outrage over a safety presentation at Lockhart High School on Aug. 11. In it, Det.played videos of mass shootings and narrated, using derogatory slurs about survivors. Before day's end, Lockhart ISD Superintendent Mark Estrada sent an email to teachers and other faculty who attended thetraining"to apologize for some of the comments that were made by the presenter," which Estrada described as"offensive.
"He played videos of shooter situations and insulted the victims' reactions ... female victims, he referred to them as 'baby,'" Bruch said."Ferry kept making fun of foreign accents. I kept looking around for someone to stand up and cut him off, but when no one did I just left."that Bruch wasn't alone.
A few days later, C/HE posted a clip from a training video bearing the emblems of ALERRT and Texas State. In it, Ferry narrates over footage of a 2015 mass shooting in France, where four people died at a kosher eatery. Ferry's word choice for those fleeing for their lives amid the antisemitic bloodshed –"froggies" and later"Frenchies" – did not sit well with the Lone Star State's chief diplomat for France."I cannot but deplore the offensive remarks and biased cliches made by Mr. Ferry,"."Above all, I think of the victims of these terrible attacks. Such remarks lack the basic respect and thorough understanding one needs while participating in the public debate.
