Hey let’s just do away with cops, then all of you can stop second guessing.

Here’s a larper/cop checking out Instagram as kids are being killed.

Plan was to change the subject off of Hillary and Bidenflation and embarrass Trump and the NRA a few days before their convention.

Open doors. Stand down orders. Nutcases living with felon grandpa allowed to buy guns.

Word also out there’s a Discord channel where this nut and the Buffalo shooter were hanging out. Likely both being groomed by their DS handlers.

Contrast it with the North Hollywood Bank Shootout back in 1997. LAPD engaged early and didn’t quit.

The two perps were wrapped in heavy body armor and armed with AK-47s, an HK91 and a Bushmaster and handguns. They seriously outgunned the LAPD armed only with handguns and 12 gauges.

The robbers fired over a thousand rounds. 12 LAPD were hit. A SWAT team borrowed AR-15s from the B&B gun store and joined the battle. The running gunfight lasted almost an hour with the two criminals ending up dead.

Texas Department Public Safety spokesman Lt. Christopher Olivarez confirmed to a reporter during a live shot that police officers went into Robb Elementary School to get their own children during the massacre.

"The only thing that makes sense is that, as someone else said, they wanted people to die."

You can apply that to the school system, and the school itself when they left the doors unlocked, so a shooter was able to walk in without being confronted by anyone, armed or otherwise.

I wonder if we'll ever see video showing how long it took him to find an unlocked door?

I know the private school my wife works at, the exterior door lock automatically to the outside.

[Trailerpark Badass]

Tell you what: when one of them has the guts to name names as to who told them to stand down and wait outside, I’ll consider them all complicit.

[Trailerpark Badass]

Yep, NRA convention this weekend. My boss is there.

"I know the private school my wife works at, the exterior door lock automatically to the outside."

That's all well and good, but people who work there, and even the students should get in the habit of making sure that the door to the outside, that they just came in through, has fully closed and locked behind them, especially if they are alone at the time. Doors may not always function properly, and can be tampered with so they don't automatically lock.

Most people don't double check like that because that kind of security isn't drummed into the heads. I worked in NY State's prison system, and the rule was, if you had to use a key to unlock a door to get into a room, you had to lock it once you entered, and lock it again once you left. I've been retired for 20 years, and my mind continues to function as if I was still in uniform. I still have a heightened sense of security, even at 74 years of age.

out lookin’ for garage door pulls.

[McGavin999]

I’m waiting to find out what happened and how. We have been beating up cops for years now and I refuse to condemn them until all facts are known.

[Guenevere]

You know I understand.
You speak the truth.

[beaversmom]

<< Just shut up, this is not a bandwagon. Nobody asked you. >>

I get sick of that stuff, too.

Same old tired words.

“Thoughts and prayers.”

“No parent should have to bury their child.”

I would just not say anything if all I had were hollow words to offer.

[HereInTheHeartland]

Gee I’m glad you checked and I passed.
You might want to read up on the evidence showing clotting happening with both the vaccine and Covid itself.
The truth is out there if you just look.
Wacko conspiracy theories aren’t helping anyone.

Now, sources say police were struggling to get into the classroom and needed a key to open the door.

Cops that didn't want to break down a door to get in? Right...

[Svartalfiar]

This is not a hit piece on police, as a whole.

Just the 150 police who did nothing in this one city.

The average State has about 2 officers per thousand people. So in a town of 15M, you's expect to have about 30 officers in the region, and maybe a third of that currently on duty? So where did the 140 other officers come from? San Antonio is an hour+ away, and I doubt they had 100 guys sitting around to spare..

[Svartalfiar]

Note: US Marshall (not Local Leo)

Well that explains where some of the cops came from. Uvalde is a town of 15M, so they should have about 30-35 cops in the area. Yet somehow 150 of them show up to stand around..?

[Svartalfiar]

That's all well and good, but people who work there, and even the students should get in the habit of making sure that the door to the outside, that they just came in through, has fully closed and locked behind them, especially if they are alone at the time. Doors may not always function properly, and can be tampered with so they don't automatically lock.

Yup, though how a random guy managed to get lucky and find the open door, hmm. And I still haven't seen which door needed a key for the cops to get in, the exterior door or the classroom door? Something else?

[nonliberal]

At least I would have done SOMETHING. And hey, if I could take a coward cop or two with me, I could die smiling.

I hope you never have to face that decision in real life.
