“Thank you for that informed, thoughtful, incisive, reasoned contribution to the discussion.”
Let’s try this then.
I assume your comment about the “SWAT” team not moving toward Norris was a reference to cell phone shots showing police behind trees and cars. Some are headed toward the building and some are not.
However, if you had bothered to read the state panel report on what happened, you would know that the first police on the scene were already going into the building at that point and could not be seen in the cell phone shots. The officers not moving toward the building were doing EXACTLY what they were supposed to be doing — surrounding the building so the shooter couldn’t slip out. They knew that others were already inside.
The report makes it clear that the first police on the scene went into the building as quickly as they could. As soon as they were able to open a door, 12 officers went in.
It’s really aggravating to listen to you and others essentially call these officers cowards. As I said before, you have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about.
