Harrowing video shows Texas cops RESTRAINING parents outside elementary school shooting and telling them 'we're taking care of it': Cops took up to 90 minutes to get inside classroom where gunman had trapped kids 'because they needed a key'

Shocking new video has emerged showing Texas cops restraining parents as they tried to rescue their kids on Tuesday after a gunman unleashed terror inside the elementary school, as questions grow over why it took so long to get to the shooter after the first 911 call.

Salvador Ramos, 18, arrived at the school in Uvalde at 11.30am, crashing his car into a ditch.

A school resource officer was at the scene but he failed to stop him from making his way inside.

Two other cops also rushed to the school at that time - Ramos had just shot his grandmother in the face at their home less than five miles away. She survived and called the police.

When they arrived, Ramos is said to have shot at them then ran into the school, where he barricaded himself in the fourth grade classroom and shot 19 kids and two teachers dead.

It took another 90 minutes from that point for police to declare the shooting over.

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

Eventually, a border patrol agent was able to get inside and the shooting was declared over at 1.06pm.

But it questions remain over why it took police so long to get into the classroom where the kids were trapped with the gunman.

One child told KENS 5 that he was able to hide under a desk, but that a girl who yelled out 'help' when police arrived was executed.

“First of all I don’t believe this.”

Then present evidence to the contrary. If you have some, share it. If you don’t your beliefs are with about as much as a beer fart in a whirlwind.

No, I think the LEOs on the scene should have gone in and done their jobs. That’s what they signed up for.

This was a Deep State MK-Ultra killer the government groomed and set up the kill to do the gun grab. When you realize there’s nothing they won’t do for power and control - steal elections, murder babies, etc. - then you have to realize NOTHING is random or by mistake.

This is HORRIBLE!!! What kind of POLICE do we have??

According to Dr. Clarissa Cole, fully half the people she FAILED on their pre-employment psych evals were hired as cops and prison guards.

She said “No, no, no, he has really strong sadistic tendencies and fantasies of rape and murder, you really shouldn’t hire him” and they would.

No they haven’t been vilified enough if this is true.

Enough is when every one of them looks in the mirror and self terminates out of shame.

Set up police tape to keep out parents?

What if the parent had a gun and wanted to try to save his child? Should he be stopped from doing so?

This is what the parents themselves are saying. At least the lack of a key excuse is new...

And the backup just calls for more backup. This continues until the perpetrator runs out of rounds and the police can safely seize the day and walk in to handcuff the perp.

Same with Parkland, FL shooting that going forward gifted us the intellectual heavyweight (and former pillow manufacturer) David Hogg.

Here’s what the folks in TX can look forward to:

I’m NOT retracting anything!

Many of you are urging on your propaganda!

Haven’t the police been vilified enough !

In this particular case, no. Not even close.

YMMV

That’s the worst thing I’ve ever seen. What were these cops thinking? I agree with the quote of the guy who said the parents should just rush in. These poor parents are going to hate themselves forever for not doing so. Horrible.

Cops took up to 90 minutes to get inside classroom where gunman had trapped kids ‘because they needed a key’

they didn’t want to use a battering ram and be charged with destroying school property plus wanton recklessness; that would have ruined their careers.

I bet several BP had kids in that school.

A 12 ga riot gun can take a door knob, dead bolt or hinges off a door for entrance. The military deckled this year ago. Why didn't the principal, security persons, or teachers have a key? I am not buying this. Why was a border agent the one that got the terrorist and not the cops?

“So you think that mother should have been allowed to go inside? Really?“

And you think that mother does NOT have the God given right to try to save her child? Who are the police to stand between parents and their ability to protect their children in any and all ways possible?

No, you are wrong, dead wrong. If the police are not going to go in IMMEDIATELY, then they must stand down and allow those with enough heart go in.
