This timeline includes an hour long Facebook post that I hadn’t seen before.

Uvalde paid the price for having woke Democrats in charge of the police. It is as clear as the day is long.

All we really need to know is that armed and armored cops were in the school within 3 minutes of Ramos - and did nothing.

“... and did nothing.”

Oh they did something alright; stood around and listened to the slaughtering of children mere feet away while wringing their hands. F’n cowards.

Texas Tribune is a leftist rag.

Notice they are funded by the New York Times.

This was a deliberate false flag event. Prove me wrong.

It’s being reported on the radio this morning that a member of the rapid response team had the murderer in his sights even before he entered the classroom. He asked for permission to shoot but permission was not given.

"He asked for permission to shoot but permission was not given."

There is way too much "asking permission" and not enough "exercising initiative" throughout this fiasco. Why the hell did he think he needed to "ask permission"! SHOOT THE BASTARD!

Two questions never asked:

1. Where was the school Principal? She had the keys to all of the room, she knew who was in what classroom, the layouts of the rooms and the avenues of ingress/egress. She is never mentioned.

2. Who sold Ramos the weapons and ammo? Someone had to do it - who was it? How come in nearly every other murder/mass shooting the gun shop/gun dealer is identified - why not now? Did someone other than Ramos get the gun for him?

”...but that they have a Halligan, an ax-like firefighting tool used to breach doors.”

Hat tip to Chicago Fire. Nice but irrelevant little detail.

The authorities have had six weeks to shore up the holes in the narrative, and came up with this. Clearly they are overpaid. Time to hire new writers.

I don’t think it was their fault. I think this was a leadership failure.
A good leader who is confident his people will let them act on their own initiative. I think all initiative had been beaten out of the department. One cop had Ramos in his sights and, rather than shooting him, called for permission. No one got back to him and Ramos disappeared. He should have been able to take the shot on his own initiative.
Likewise, the cops in the hall should have simply called that they were going in, and gone. No waiting for orders.
Then there were failures to communicate. As far as I can tell they were thinking “barricaded” and “contained” instead “kids being shot and wounded bleeding out.” The operation should have been a rush to smother Ramos in bullets and bodies, but turned into a “wait and see.”

Question 2 has been answered. He legally purchased the firearms from a local gun store called Oasis Outback.
What might be more interesting is where he got the money. He worked at Wendy’s part time for 2 years, and he might have dealt as well. Still I’d like to see his finances examined.

Forgive my ignorance but what is a false flag event?

When someone with an agenda presents themselves as being on the other side and acts in a way that makes the other side look bad. For example a person who is pro-abortion claiming to be pro-life and then firebombing an abortion clinic in order to stir up hostility to the pro-life cause.

I don’t recall the answer to 2, but #1 was irrelevant as none of the classrooms could be locked from the inside, the layouts were known from other staff. The chief kept asking for keys when none were needed.
