“It is prudent to have them stand down unless there is a plan.”

this is the kind of thinking that makes police almost worse then useless in an active shooter situation. Have them sit around outside planning while the kids are being butchered.

IOW, wait until we tell you to do something—we have to have a higher body count.

Somebody needs to fire this SOB.

WHERE IS THE DEMAND FOR FEDERAL AND STATE INVESTIGATIONS ????
They’re missing the point It’s not guns or the NRA It’s policies which had cops standing outside while killing was going on or some nut getting a gun the FBI knew he wasn’t suppose to... Plus a whole raft of other stuff
THE MEDIA IS DOING THIS BECAUSE
THEY DON’T WANT YOU TO KNOW WHY THIS HAPPENED
STOP SPREADING THE CABLE SWILL MILLS POISON
DEMAND STATE AND FED INVESTIGATION ON THE POLICIES
AND LET THE PUBLIC KNOW THOSE RESULTS

I encourage them to continue doing precisely as they are doing and accustomed to doing, as we now are watching and listening.

"Give more rope"

What they are attempting to do is minimize legal costs after the fact by structuring their passive timidity into policy and procedure for a court room.

No, we can’t have SWAT rushing to stop a Democrat-enabled (Democrat-coordinated?) mass murder. We have to have these so the Democrats will have a political basis for gun bans.

I guess ‘riding to the sound of the guns’ is gauche and toxic now. This **** is driving me nuts. That is what the defenders of our species are supposed to do!

Couldn’t have members of a SWAT team interrupting a perfectly good crisis to exploit, now could we?

This kid was a ticking time bomb waiting to go off, was on the radar of multiple LE agencies, this could have been averted, and nothing was done about it, possibly in a deliberate manner.

It’s a very cynical view, believe me, but not something that I wouldn’t put past socialist-democrats, especially with a “sheriff” who has ties to the DNC, along with pics of him and PIAPS together.

Is Flori-duh is having another hanging chad moment; this time in their police departments?

WTH is going on here when on-scene police are told to stand down by an incompetent inept supervisor when nearby off-duty cops in training rush in to help then get suspended? Has the police world in Flori-duh gone completely mad?

All this madness creates more questions without answering the elephant in the room big questions. This kind of thinking is why more people need to be armed; not less. Even when the police are minutes or even seconds away; don’t expect help anytime soon.

We must protect ourselves and not expect help that may never come; certainly not in time.

GUN CONTROL KILLS

If police do not protect the public they may be disciplined. But the victim is still dead.

The police cowards will be rewarded later on.

The dead victims could have defended themselves. Gun Control Kills while you wait for cops.

A “plan”???

Typical moron’s running things today. SWAT has plans. This pinhead thinks a planning meeting is needed to respond.

As usual, when seconds count to save your life, the cops are in a meeting hours away.

Shhh! Quiet about Las Vegas or Republican baseball.

Only Parkland is discussed.

Because Democrats are sick gun control freaks.

I have mixed feelings on this. I understand the mentality of rushing to the sound of gunfire, but on 9/11, we had fire companies from all over the city rushing to the trade center without being dispatched or approved by Battalion. We also had PD officers doing the same. Had their been a follow on attack or a secondary device or attack, we would not have been adequately able to respond to the second scene. Consequentially, we had multiple mos killed standing in a staging area, that they didn’t need to be in. From the performance of the BCSO, these SWAT officers could have been the victims of a blue on blue shooting had they rolled up in plainclothes with AR-15s locked and loaded. But suspending them seems a bit harsh.

Morons....so much for “see something, say something, do something...”
Nope...that didn’t work for crap. I’ll stick to defending myself and loved ones with whatever means are necessary and available to me.
When seconds count, these stupid azzholes are hours away....to hell with em.

There might be a legitimate argument if those SWAT guys had actually jumped into the situation and taken action without coordinating with anyone on scene.

But to discipline them just for hustling up there to see if they were needed/wanted...that's completely messed up.

Obviously the NRA's fault. Somebody do something!

When seconds count the police are making plans.
