Only in Hollywood. Not in reality.
Cop vs Cop, immunity?
Too bizarre for certain.
This is the kind of thing that could lead to “Workplace violence” and a jury refusing to convict.
They may have to disarm the entire force under “Red Flag” laws!
That police chief is “the biggest toad in the puddle” in this tragedy. Heard he’s woke and a Beto supporter.
Someone might want to take a good hard look at his bank account.
IMHO, I suspect he was in on this atrocity right from the very planning stages...along with the woke maggot that propped open the door for the vile POS.
This was a setup from the very get-go. Heads should roll over this BS starting with this so-called “chief”.
Watch the Donut Operator video I linked - he did a commentary and rebroadcast of the Senate hearing. The door wasn’t propped open at the time he entered - it was closed, but it was unlocked.
I live in a city with around 25,000, and I don’t think we have a SWAT team
My town is to small to have a police department and the best response time I could expect from the county Sheriff is at least 45 minutes to an hour.
Fortunately for my wife and I, Messrs. Colt, Remington and Springfield are readily available within seconds.
It’s not incompetency IMO.
It’s interesting that this happened right when more gun legislation was up and coming.
Beyond coincidental, and IMO, inexcusably evil, because it was so handled as to have to been deliberate. Nothing could have been that coincidentally incompetent, have failed on so many levels.
Maybe it’s time for your police department to start getting SWAT training even if you don’t have an official team. Uvalde County (not just the city) has a population of less than 25,000 people.
If it happened there, it can happen to your city.
And it’s going to be getting more common as time goes on.
bkmk
Failure to think then act is everywhere in our society!
Manslaughter charges for all of them.
That might not apppy in this case.
If they have a department SOP that tells them how to respond to an A five Shooter event and they didn’t follow the SOP, they might be in trouble.
Ha I guess trained folks in that stiff, these days officers are trained in what they call, single officer response. If you’re the only cop there and you hear gunshots, you go in and hope help arrives fast.
If there’s no gunfire, you wait for at least one other officer an you both go in and hope that help gets there fast.
They did nothing. F*^king cowards.
I’ll bet you do or that responsibility is handled by your county law enforcement agency with, maybe; a few folks from your local police on the unit.
Lots of places will have a “joint team”’due to manpower considerations.
If they had an SOP, it’s probably been deleted since. It’s a school district police force, so highly political in that sphere.
Additionally, how long before we are informed that the Uvalde CISD PD has investigated itself and they found they did nothing wrong per their SOP? Which in practice gets them out of many qualified immunity and sovereign immunity cases.
Which in practice gets them out of many qualified immunity and sovereign immunity cases.…that is true.
Even if the SOP vanishes, officers training records will show otherwise. And if I’m not mistaken, the agency hosted an active shooter class a few weeks prior.
Either way, they’re all cowards and should be prosecuted.
Why is the officer who actually killed the freak kept in so much secrecy?
Hs anyone else noticed how little praise or publicity he has gotten?
A legal matter?
In contrast to the response at Sandy Hook where the police response was amazing. An officer showed up about 2 minutes after the 911 call was received at 9:35. Police entered the building and discovered Adam Lanza dead of a self-inflicted gunshot at about 9:40.
What’s a
YouTuber Donut Operator,????
Donut Operator is the screen name of a retired South Carolina police officer who runs a YouTube channel that’s generally about police shootings, law enforcement matters, firearms, etc., etc. Any time there’s a high profile police shooting, he will do a review and break down video footage to explain it from a cop’s point of view. It’s not always complimentary about the officer or incident in question.
He did a stream on YouTube today where he rebroadcast the Texas Senate hearings on the investigation and he provided explanations and interpretations as well as commentary/criticism of the actions in Uvalde. It was not at all complimentary for Uvalde officers.
