There you have it.

This is why we have the 2nd amendment because, when push comes to shove, the police aren’t there to protect you. They’re doing a good job if they make a phone call.

If the JROTC in that school had actual rifles on school property (like the JROTC of old did) this wouldn’t have happened.

Wait! Are you saying he was a policeman? A real one?

I thought he was just a security guard!

This exposes the big lie that they run towards gunfire while others run away. And that's the excuse to take guns away from the rest of us. No thanks, I'll defend my family myself, because not all LE are going to do the job. Not casting doubt on all LE, as I know LE that are risk takers. But this guy is disgraceful.

This didn’t happen when kids would bring their guns to school because they were hunting later. They’d leave them in the truck, but still.

And Peter Wang 15 year old unarmed JROTC Cadet gave his live while saving fellow students. Think about that here’s a 15 year old boy who only train was a couple of years of JROTC and he did better than the cops. Despite what a few think the JROTC Cadets actions were clearly a case of above and beyond in the finest tradition of the American Military.

“They’re doing a good job if they make a phone call.”

The definition downward of superlatives has to also include positive non-superlatives.

In a world of “heroes” nobody was there to intercept this lost soul and prevent him from killing these kids.

I guess this cop grudgingly accepts his inactions are less than heroic.

The Union will probably get his job back with back pay!

This school was so large and the way he shot the kids might not have allowed for JROTC students to get to where the killings were taking place. This began outside the school and went from there all within 3 minutes he had shot over 100 people.

Yes, he did a hell of a good job, let the guy leave after killing a bunch of kids and according to reports went to McDonalds for a happy meal before anyone arrested him.
