“Let the lawsuits begin”.

I hate to be the one to break it to you, but law enforcement enjoys what is called “sovereign immunity”. They can’t be sued.

Ironically, there will be lawsuits, and large payouts, but they will be paid by the city taxpayers. They will have to have another bond issue, and raise the property tax. Basically, at least in part the money for any lawsuits will come from the victims families.

Agreed. The situation doesn’t make sense. I finally saw a mention in an article, that the pickup truck belonged to his grandmother. But still, the rifles sold complete are expensive, and frugality for long term goals doesn’t seem likely in a psychopath.

Real psychopaths are bizarre and often either unaddressed or misdiagnosed by psychologists. There are too many socio-political efforts involved in psychology practice and education.

Here’s a sickening account of the Police response from a 4th Grade survivor:

The detailed timeline unfolding is inexcusable. A teacher propped the door that Ramos used to enter. Doors like that are normally in a locked state, exit only for fire safety. The stand down by 19 deputies while Ramos executed the kids is inexcusable. They waited for a "master key". The damn room has windows. Nobody thought to engage through the windows?

I hate to think it, but this incident glaringly appears to be just another failure of law enforcement and the justice system at every level, in addition to being the perpetrators fault.

It shocks and sickens me that the police primary directive is not protection of the public, but protection of the law #1 (government) and self protection#2

my conspiracy nut side wouldn't be surprised if the perps guns traced back to "Fast and Furious" [/sarcasm]

thank god the Border Patrol stepped up,

The motive for the massacre — the nation’s deadliest school shooting since Newtown, Connecticut, almost a decade ago — remained under investigation.

I say it was Satan inspired. The shooter had turned over his soul to Satan.

Just saw on TRUTH that the local cops had specific training in a school (maybe THE school) just 2 months before. They were taught to actively seek out the shooter immediately and engage even at the risk of death.

Yes I wasn’t there but I think so far it’s starting to look like complete cowardice for the local cops.

Before massacre, Uvalde gunman frequently threatened teen girls online

Young people who met the alleged gunman online said he had threatened to kidnap, rape or kill. But they said their reports were ignored and that his kind of angry misogyny was just “how online is.”

I hate Big Tech. Some of this, maybe a lot, rests on them. They had plenty of warning, should have got authorities involved.

They are more concerned with getting their woke social messages across, pro Democrat in elections than safety.

Maybe Musk will start a change.

Florida Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd:

“If you come to a school in this county, armed, we’re going to do our best through either our guardians, our school resource officers, or our school resource deputy sheriffs to elminate the threat outside of the school before they ever get to the children. We’re trained to do that.”

He then held up a picture of a deputy pointing a gun.

“This is the last thing you’ll see before we put a bullet through your head if you’re trying to hurt our children. We are going to shoot you graveyard dead if you come onto a campus, with a gun, threatening our children or shooting at us.”

Pity that wasn’t their policy before (or was it?).

Interesting.

They knew what to do, they just didn’t do it.

How many young lives could have been saved if the cops had gone in immediately?

Despite ample school security plan, Texas shooter found gaps

Robb Elementary School had measures in place to prevent this kind of violence. A fence lined the school property. Teachers were ordered to keep classroom doors closed and locked. Students faced regular lockdown and evacuation drills.

But when an 18-year-old man arrived Tuesday at the school in Uvalde, Texas, intent on killing children, none of it stopped him.

Security failures allowed the shooter to massacre 19 students and two teachers, school safety experts say. The shooting already has led to calls to fortify schools further, on top of millions spent on equipment and other measures following earlier shootings. But more security offers drawbacks, with no guarantee of an end to mass violence. In the worst case, as in Uvalde, it could backfire.

Officials say Texas gunman entered unimpeded as anger mounts over police response

The suspect crashed his pickup truck outside the school at 11:28 a.m. (1628 GMT), opened fire on two people at a funeral home across the street, then scaled a fence onto school property and walked into one of the buildings through an unlocked rear door at 11:40 a.m. (1640 GMT), Escalon said.

Two responding officers entered the school four minutes later but took cover after Ramos fired multiple rounds at them, Escalon said.

The shooter then barricaded himself inside the fourth-grade classroom of his victims, mostly 9- and 10-year-olds, for an hour before a U.S. Border Patrol tactical team breached the room and fatally shot him, Escalon said.

The hour-long interval appeared to be at odds with an approach adopted by many law enforcement agencies to confront “active shooters” at schools immediately to stop any further bloodshed.

He should have never made it out of the pickup alive

Total combat fail by the police.

I don't count on the police for anything more than random and capricious traffic harrassment
