BREAKING: Mother trying to save children at Uvalde was handcuffed by federal marshals
Post Millenial ^ | 5/26/22

Posted on 05/26/2022 12:11:21 PM PDT by Pollard

After it was revealed on Thursday that not only did police delay their response to sending tactical teams into the Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Tex. amid a school shooting that left 19 children and two teachers dead but prevented parents from entering, the Wall Street Journal reported that one mother sprinted into the school to get her children, over objections from law enforcement.

Angeli Rose Gomez drove 40 miles to the school upon hearing of the shooting, and she arrived, said "The police were doing nothing. They were just standing outside the fence. They weren't going in there or running anywhere."

I hope the parents sue the shite out of all involved.

This is just ridiculous.

You underestimate mamas!

And yes! Soccer moms sure beat cops standing around with fingers up their bums letting kids get slaughtered and bleed out.

Cell phone footage from the scene. There were two US marshals that I saw along with local police, sheriff in tactical gear, state troopers vehicle are shown at the end. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyXtymq-A6w

There was no shortage of LEO manpower to go in after the shooter. Just a lack of will or lack of someone of rank to tell them to do so I guess.

Do you think it was a coincidence 150 just miraculously wind up doing that, around their cars, shooting the breeze, across the police, sheriff’s department, and other entities joining the picnic?

No, I think it's pure speculation and unfounded accusations at this point.

My grandfather always said: "never jump to conclusions if there is a cliff in front of you or if there is a rope around your neck that's tied to a tree."

I prefer to wait until the final investigative report is issued before I make any judgment calls....

But then again, I'm in no position to make any judgment since I wasn't there in the presence of an armed mass murderer.

That’s pretty much where I am. I’m taking names of anyone trying to stop me from saving my own child, and others. There will helltopay later. I’ve done citizen arrests before when the Blue wasn’t around. Sometimes you have to step up.

Waiting for Governor Abbott to assign the Texas Rangers the official investigation, and to authorize them to keep the feds the **** out.

The real Texas Rangers, not the baseball team.

So you think letting every soccer mom run hysterically in there is a fine plan?

No I think LEO's leading parents into the fray would be the honorable way for them to act. We have seen the cowardly LEO's stand outside the perimeter more times than I want to recall. I certainly wouldn't want to depend on them in a battle. As I understand it the people that took him out were Border Patrol not LEO's.

6+ minutes of cell phone video will give you an idea of how many LEOs were there. Local PD, sheriff deputies, state troopers and US marshals.

So you also don’t believe kids and teachers were killed and a murderer was, too, because there has yet to be a “final investigative report,” I presume?

You also can’t confirm what you had to eat this morning, because that report will likely never come.

Shotguns would not have been a good choice with kids and all. Need AR’s to target only the bad guy. The issue with tactical teams is most cops are not trained to that level, usually need to be SWAT for that. The street beat guy is lucky to get to the range for training a couple of times a year. That all said, if you choose the profession of a protector, and you are taking a paycheck for that, then STEP UP. We have known since Columbine that you don’t wait outside.

just like columbine....cops don't want to risk a fingernail....

In remember so well the cowardly cops hunkering behind a fire truck as the fireman drove into the zone with nothing shielding him but a giant windshield. Cowards every one of them.

According to Raul Ortiz, Chief of the US Border Patrol, the entire affair lasted a little over an hour. About thirty minutes after the shooting started it stopped and the perp barricaded himself into a classroom. The border patrol and the local cops had already engaged him. But upon arrival of the border patrol tactical team, search and rescue and other agents, along with the ones trained to do this from local police, they forced their way into the classroom he had barricaded himself in and shot him before he could choose to harm anyone else

So what happened?
LEOs waited around for a half hour listening to shots?
The Border Patrol and locals had a thirty minute gun duel with the shooter?
For thirty minutes after the shooting ended, the locals, BP, S&R were busy formulating their attack?

This explanation is as clear as mud.

FYI, out of curiosity I clicked on the link to see how much the body armor set would cost (~1300) and how soon you could get it (ETA Jun. 24 - Jul. 3).

So again, I find it extremely odd that both the shooters had body armor.

I would really like to know when they bought their weapons ...

“Once freed from her cuffs, Ms. Gomez made her distance from the crowd, jumped the school fence, and ran inside to grab her two children. She sprinted out of the school with them.”


Good for her!

“Salvador Ramos worked at Wendy’s.
he’s 18 years old and has 5k worth of weapons and drives 75k pickup truck ?

unless his family is wealthy, there’s a disconnect here...”


He was also made fun of for being poor. Yeah, a BIG disconnect. There needs to be a very open investigation (so that nothing can be buried) of who or what entity financed his guns and vehicle.

So six minutes of cell video tells the entire story of what went down before, during and after. Got it.....

I could not care less of what 6 minutes of cell phone video shows.

As I said, I'll wait till the final report comes out. But thanks for your information.
