Uvalde is in the part of the Rio Grande valley that has traditionally been a Democrat stronghold. That is one of the reasons that the school was a “gun-free zone”, and probably had more than a little to do with the reluctance of the law enforcement officers to go in and directly confront the shooter.

The situation in the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, is eerily similar in so many ways. There, too, the law enforcement officers held back, and themselves were in a largely Democrat district in an otherwise mostly “red” state. Broward County, where Parkland is located, has about three times as many Democrats as Republicans registered, and is considered “liberal” in its outlook, and of course, the police force and sheriff’s department would not want to look “brutal”, by mounting a frontal assault on the school invader. Can’t say that worked out so good for the victims of that shooter.

In the end, just very bad optics.

He probably studied Slick’s Ron Brown funeral tape during the whole plane ride there.

There’s nothing happier than a democrat after a school shooting.

Our rights are non negotiable. Go after the crazies. Reopen the mental wards closed in the 1970s and the crazies released onto the streets, after which killings took off like rocket.

But they won’t do it! They are after your guns. They settled for part a loaf in 1934, half a loaf in 1968, now they want the rest.

After Mass at a local church, the president was hit with cries of “Do something!”

I thought it was one person, Benito Gonzales, who yelled, “Do something”.

If he cared they’d take the 40 billion for Ukraine, and hundreds of billions more we’ve blown on foreign aid, and build mental health facilities right here at home. For starters, see all those tens of thousands of homeless from coast to coast? More than half of them have mental issues.

Yes, right after paying tribute to the 13 Marines and soldiers killed in Operation Cut and Run in Afghanistan.

Upon hearing the cries of “Do Something!” Biden responded “I’ve already brought in two airplanes full of formula from overseas!!”

Nothing but a pathetic attempt at a photo op to bolster his steadily falling approval rate. Anybody who approves of this decrepit bag of corruption is certifiable, or just loves to be abused.

He was told it was an ice cream function. The parents who were screaming at the idle police who stood by for 48 minutes will not be in attendance because it doesn’t fit the narrative of gun control

“Tribute”? “Tribute”? What an odd word to use in this context! To the kids for desperately dialing 911?

What can they do legally if he hasn't broke the law. If I go to the police over a mentally ill person, they won't do a thing. They can't if no laws are broken.

In Florida a cop can take someone for a 72hr involuntary commitment for evaluation. Look up the Baker Act

Door propped open. I cannot wrap my mind around that. In a school district that is no stranger to lock downs, mostly due to wild police chases of illegals on the run. So the teacher propped open the door to gain access after retrieving her phone from her car? What adult in this day and age doesn’t have a cell within reach? Was she too lazy to let the door self lock and walk to the main entrance? I am so confused by this whole segment of the story…
