It’s clear Salvador Ramos was mentally sick, so why wasn’t he stopped?

The suspect in the Uvalde shooting displayed signs of serious mental illness, but we are incapacitated by political correctness and leftist immorality.

As details emerge about the massacre at Robb Elementary School, we are learning that the suspected shooter, Salvador Ramos, showed obvious signs of severe mental illness and instability.

In a photo circulating across social media, Ramos stands in front of a mirror posing for a selfie. His demeanor is feminine and hypersexual – pouty lips and a shirt provocatively exposing his bare chest. Although this sort of behavior should be an obvious red flag, in a world of political correctness and leftist immorality, so few bat an eye, and innocent lives are irreparably shattered.

As is most often the case with shooting rampages, the suspects are known to authorities, and the alarm was sounded – Salvador Ramos was no different.

Texas school shooter Salvador Ramos once cut up his face with knives ‘just for fun,’ friends say https://t.co/Mw4IsctCAX pic.twitter.com/YvmHGsENMz

— New York Post (@nypost) May 25, 2022 According to Santos Valdez Jr., a former friend, Ramos had previously cut his face up with a knife “just for fun” and was known to shoot at random people with BB guns. Other classmates recalled he ‘cut himself’ saying, “I like how it looks.” Nadia Reyes, a high school acquaintance, said Ramos posted videos to social media documenting domestic fights with his mother as law enforcement was present.

With all these very clear and glaring warning signs, why wasn’t this tragedy prevented? After all, the FBI budget request for 2023 is nearly $11 billion, and if they have time and generous amounts of taxpayer dollars to expend on investigating a garage pull, they should be able to identify real threats.

People are free to be strange, unfortunately, and you can’t have a monitor on everyone.

The FBI missed him because he wasn’t wearing a MAGA hat.

Facebook’s algorithm should have immediately notified their monitors and the company could have called the police. Guess threats to murder other people are not very high up on their censorship priorities.

Because he wasn’t part of Jan. 6th. The government has their priorities.

He wasn’t investigated, because he wasn’t a white Trump supporter. Those are the only “domestic terror threats” that the government is concerned about.

Many teenagers are mentally ill. Most recover.

Mental illness is being encouraged today. The woke left sees it as a means to get power over the population. And with every shooting, they can push their agenda ever further, so it’s a win-win situation for them.

I don’t think law enforcement was aware of his cut face. The mother should have been, if he was still living with her.

All these so called Mass murderers...I call them rage murderers....are by sick individuals...who CHOSE a theme and carried it to an extreme.

The problem is....you can't arrest or detain someone until they do something illegal.

Nor would they know of his BB gun shots unless a cop pulled him over for doing it. But I think that was just an observation made by another student, and if no one informed on him and his BB buddy, how would police know to connect any complaints to him?

Having worked in a big city ER...in a *very* blue state...I know something about this.Although it can vary,at least a bit,from state to state the basic problem is that there are strict laws in place everywhere...laws passed in the 70's and 80's...which make it next to impossible to hold a person in a psych hospital against his/her will without a lengthy,complicated,court process.

These laws are a huge factor in such things as the homeless taking control of whole cities and deranged individuals walking the streets instead of being in a locked psych ward.

Blame the "progressives" of the 70s/80s who believed (and still believe) that it's better for a chronic schizophrenic to freeze to death in a doorway (it happened to several of our patients) rather than be confined to a safe,warm facility.
