Salvador Ramos, Uvalde School Shooting Suspect: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know
heavy.com ^ | 5/25/2022 | jessica mcbride

Salvador Ramos was named as the 18-year-old high school student and fast-food worker who stormed into classrooms at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, gunning down at least 19 students and two fourth-grade teachers on May 24, 2022.

It was the nation’s deadliest elementary school shooting since the 2012 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary in Connecticut. The suspect, who flashed pictures of guns on Instagram, shot his grandmother before entering the school pursued by law enforcement officers, the Associated Press reported. The Uvalde High School student shot children in grades 2 to 4 and two beloved fourth-grade teachers, Irma Garcia and Eva Mireles, to death before being killed by a border patrol agent who had been working nearby and rushed to help, officials said. There are conflicting reports about whether his grandmother is alive.

“As soon as he made entry into the school he started shooting children, teachers, whoever was in his way, he was shooting everybody,” Texas Department of Public Safety spokesperson Lt. Chris Olivarez said to Daily Beast, which reported that Ramos bought two rifles on his 18th birthday.

Accounts emerged of Ramos being bullied. The Washington Post reported that he spoke with a lisp and endured gay slurs for wearing eyeliner. Another report said he was taunted because of his clothes and family’s finances.

Salvador Rolando Ramos also had a TikTok page with a profile that read, “Kids be scared irl (in real life),” according to CNN. It contained only a clip from a Subway Surfers mobile game, the network reported. His Instagram and TikTok accounts carried the name TheBiggestOpp.

By late evening, the Associated Press reported that officials confirmed at least 21 people, 19 of them children, had died in the shooting.

“....Accounts emerged of Ramos being bullied. The Washington Post reported that he spoke with a lisp and endured gay slurs for wearing eyeliner. Another report said he was taunted because of his clothes and family’s finances….”

Here we go with the pity party!

By THAT logic, everyone who graduated from public schools in America ought to be toting a gun and threatening murder!

Most were shot in ‘one’ classroom - 19 killed 17 injured .....

There are 141 Border Patrol families in that community - some of the kids shot were children of agents. ....Very sad.

Grandmother was shot in the face. She is the one who called police.

The Washington Post reported that he spoke with a lisp and endured gay slurs for wearing eyeliner.

Oh no, not ‘gay slurs’.

Here’s a glaring “fact” they overlooked. Over 110 school districts in Texas allow their teachers and staff to be armed. Uvalde wasn’t one of them.

It does appear that Mom was an addict and mom/son were living at Grandmas place because no other possible home. Kid was a gamer addict. Doesn’t appear he was set to graduate any time soon....if they measured his ‘wits’...I have my doubts he was beyond the 9th grade level. Also based on news accounts...no father in the picture.

They left off the most important detail:







Notably, he's a freak who dresses as a woman.

Next, how did a supposedly poor tranny who worked at Wendy's get the $8k for rifles and body armor and a new $75K Dodge Ram pickup?

That’s an interesting article. But it’s also sad because it starts out talking about individual children he killed.

Drug addicted mother, violent streak according to Wendy’s coworkers, cut his own face up with knives according to a friend, had “slowly dropped out” of school due to be taunted.

he was taunted because of his clothes and family’s finances.

So where did the money for the guns and truck come from?

We must become diligent about discovering and treating children with serious mental health problems.
These children are in our public schools. There is no reason they cannot be identified and provided treatment for their anti social issues.

Couple of points:According to what the friend told CNN, Ramos “was taunted by others for the clothes he wore and his family's financial situation,” and, the friend said, he “slowly dropped out…he barely came to school.”

Where was the truancy officer, what did their investigation, or lack thereof say?

police knew him previously due to violent arguments with a “drug-addicted mother.”

What did the police do? anything?

“Then he told me the truth, that he'd cut up his face with knives over and over and over,” Valdez told the newspaper, adding that Ramos said he cut his face for “fun.”

Cutting is a sure sign of mental illness, he should have been seeing professionals, kids need to know to see something say something. Chuck the climate change curriculum and reinstate health classes that help with mental wellness and identify those who have issues so they can get help.

I would love to have any kind of proof on that, pleeeeeeeeeeese. I’m against ‘control’, and that is a good ‘point’ to use. We’re going to need all we can get. It’s a never ending fight! Thanks

Well he was bent on detroying people once he turned 18 the first thing he did was buy guns and ammo.

It was said since covid he stopped attending classes. So he didn’t graduate.

And he’s no less poor than much of that county.

It’s 70% Hispanic.

The per capita income for the county was $12,557. About 19.90% of families and 24.3% of the population were below the poverty line, including 33.9% of those under age 18 and 18.6% of those age 65 or over.
