The law enforcement response to the horrific school shooting at an Uvalde elementary school has been facing severe criticism after it was revealed that the shooter was alive inside the building for an hour without being taken out by police.
During this time, one brave mother drove 40 minutes from work, was handcuffed for trying to enter, talked police into freeing her, breached the perimeter, and went in and got her children out of the building.
Police officers also reportedly entered the building and rescued their own children during this time.
When questioned about the response by CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, Texas Department of Public Safety Lt. Chris Olivarez said that police were reluctant to engage the killer because they “could have been shot.”
Instead, they attempted to keep him in one room. Inside that room, a little girl was bleeding out and would later die at the hospital.
“Don’t current best practices, don’t they call for officers to disable a shooter as quickly as possible, regardless of how many officers are actually on site?” Blitzer asked Olivarez.
“They could’ve been shot. They could’ve been killed,”

Who will be held accountable?
Like Benghazi, not the ones who should be.
We got to this point because the education systems has been indoctrinating our society for decades now PEOPLE HAVE BECOME SHEEP!! I used to believe that it was just the universities HOWEVER now I realize these bastards have gotten ahold of our little ones brainwashing them from a much younger age!!
Governor Abbott has the power to fire Texas DPS officers and Game Wardens.
HELL YEAH if only the shooter had been wearing a MAGA hat the bastard would have been dead in seconds!!
Yeah but the kids didn’t have guns to protect themselves; the cops had guns.
Considering that the Texas DPS spokesman said yesterday that officers had engaged the shooter before he entered the building, and there were multiple witnesses outside, including people who captured the shooter on video, I think the police knew how many shooters were in the building - one.
Considering that the reports of what happened are coming from the police, why would they be making up some kind of story to "defund the police"? Doesn't that make you wonder if your hypothesis is baseless?
Just floating this, given that I've come to know our enemy well:
What if - just WHAT IF - they were ordered to hold? The county judge for Uvalde is William R. Mitchell, a democrat.
I have about 100x more questions about this tragedy than information even Abbott provided, including why 150 officers were feigning crowd control over parents in an active shooter theater. It would explain why the BORTAC team went into the school and not local or county SWAT.
Though extremely critical of their lack of action initially, I'm not so willing to quickly throw them under the bus (yet)...since that's EXACTLY what the WH & the left wants us to do.
I never suggested the police were resurrecting defund they police. The DEMOCRATS are, this is their hope for salvaging the mid terms, make the police look dangerous, untrained and feckless AGAIN. Same playbook different play. Read Joes new executive order, couldn’t be more timely. Sorry, I’m going to wait until this all shakes out before I believe the cops were “scared”.
The further away people remove themselves from God, the easier it is for Satan to take over the weak.
So Texas goes from one riot and one Ranger to one riot 100 Rangers and one day later?
Men certainly are NOT what they used to be!! Give your damn firearms to the moms standing out there they would be happy to take care of the situation GEEZE!! Our society has DESTROYED the male population turned them into a bunch of pansies,
But the left has no problem sacrificing someone else’s kids.
So the cops could have been shot, while it was guaranteed that that 10 year old kids were being shot.
Profiles in Cowardice
“Well, you may not know this, but there’s things that gnaw at a man worse than dying.”
And the city firemen/ Are they afraid to get too close to a fire because they might get burned?
Fire the cops. All of ‘em.
I agree. Three mass shootings in one month? (California, New York, and Texas.)
Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action.
“What if - just WHAT IF - they were ordered to hold?”
Honor demands some orders be ignored.
L
Let me ask: did the police take any affirmative steps to answer those questions to their satisfaction? Did they put any scouts out to determine any of that or did they remain within the safety of cover and concealment?
This reeks of governmental cowardice all the way around. Except for their official reaction to concerned and panicked parents while they were busy retrieving their own kids. /S
Sad sad sad…..
