New Outrage Over Gut-Wrenching Blunders By TX Police, Gov. Greg Abbott In School Massacre
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 май 2022
- New details regarding the mass shooting at an elementary school in Texas reveal the extent of the police’s failed response and lies. Nineteen police officers waited 45 minutes without breaking into the classroom to confront the shooter, while students in the room with the killer called 911 -- begging for police to help. While Texas’ Republican Gov. Greg Abbott claimed he was “livid” about the fact he received false information from the police, he also took the time to record a new video address for the NRA’s convention in Texas, and dodged questions about laws surrounding the purchase of AR-15s. MSNBC’s Ari Melber reports on the developing investigation into the police’s botched response to the shooting, and the GOP’s continued effort to push false claims about gun safety.

Let’s STOP calling these police “mistakes, blunders”. This was straight negligence and failure of all failures.
No. It was Police acting exactly how one would expect. Trying to seem brave and good but in reality the second comes to actually upholding their commitment to protect civilians (vulnerable civilians especially) even if means laying down their life. They chose to do what many before had done. It was only when there was finally outrage at the fact they tried to negotiate with a prior school shooter that they even started to go in fast the few shootings in the last few years. Was never going to last because acting for PR reasons only isn't sustainable.
The police policy seems to be "let the shooter run out of bullets then we go in"
Straight up lies they been telling us.
The cops were COWARDS.
S.S. Notice how public safety chief McCraw casually mentioned "I wasn't there." (2:45).
And goes on attempting to explain, oh, I don't know, ...how hard it was for the cops that WERE THERE.
This is galling.
Who in the BLEEP was in charge. Not McCraw....ostensibly because?...He wasn't THERE?
Who are these people?
Not to mention the cops outside busy handcuffing the parents trying to save their children. That entire department should be fired and criminally charged
It was worse than even that. They went in and made sure to get their own kids out, then refused entry to parents who wanted to do the same.
They waited until he ran out of ammo!!!!!!!!!!!!
never gonna happen, they will get promotions and awards for bravely hiding while children are slaughtered
@@donaldyoung2983 it's like fire fighters waiting til the building burned to the ground before going in to save the tenants
@@jerryjohnson6810 and the same politicians are gonna go to the NRA convention and receive a check . This nonsense has gotten out of hand.
How could Anyone stay outside a classroom while hearing the gun fire and screams of children being Murdered? HOW?
THAT!!!!
Because all cops are cowards.
I shed tears every time I see these videos of the parents! As a father I can not imagine what they went through! Law enforcement in a whole needs to be redone! We do need police but there should be different agencies such as community patrols!
All 19 officer's standing in the hallway at the school listening to the children cry and being slaughtered should all face charges.
"Good guys with guns".
How could they not DO anything??? Listening to dying children!!!
Well, because they are not "our babies"?
What an ignorant comment. There was a senior police officer who was in charge of telling those police officers what to do. That's who is culpable not those following orders.
@@smc130 You don't know what they did or did not hear. Also they have to listen to orders so the person who told them to wait is the person who's culpable.
The police spent more time and energy fighting the parents of the murdered children than fighting the shooter. It's beyond obscene.
Exactly
Maybe they should give their guns to the parents! And those vests wasted on them!!
Remember, you can't inherit guts! You also can't install courage. You either have it or you don't. In other words can you showed your yellow streak. 🧐🙏
The reason why is because those parents didn't have any guns, and the shooter inside had a AR-15, that's really disgusting, would think that those officers standing in the hallway had more common sense and a little dignity to break into that classroom, wow, I guess that door was impregnable and the only way you could get into that classroom was to use a key, it just makes no sense to me, I hope both of those police chiefs are fired and charges are brought up against those two as for those officers just standing around outside as well as those 19 officers waiting in the hall way.
They are better at handling soft targets. This is their specialty.
What makes me mad is the fact that the police wouldn't let parents in but went in to save their own children. So they plucked their children out and left other people's babies? How can they live with themselves 😟
Reporter: “Why didn’t the cops go in?”
Head of DPS: “Well, I wasn’t there so, don’t get mad at me”
They lying afterwards is the most disgusting part. That means they knew they were in the wrong.
Cops LIE a LOT. That's why you should always film every encounter with them. I trust them less and less...
When arent they in the wrong these days?
@@thewolf01x95 when protecting themselves apparently
agree
Follow the money.Those repubs will not change laws for the protection of the people.They are bought and paid for by the N.R.A.
As a resident of Austin, Texas, I ask that Gov. Abbott resign immediately.
INDEED ...
I have sent letters to him demanding him and the LT gov to step down and to Paxton to investigate them both. I know it will never happen, but I like to hope. Dallas, TX
Agree.
Get a petition going to recall him.
Governor Abbott is amazing!!! One of the best governors ever. This is a failure of the police department. Period! This is why citizens should be arming themselves against violence. The greatest amount of violent crime happens in cities with the strictest gun laws. Why did it take 12 minutes for the police to respond after this lumatic ditched the car? He basically advertised his plan on social media and his grandmother called 911. Yet, no one stopped him. And the police did nothing at all to stop this….even when so far as to tackle parents who tried to rescue the children…..some of whom were probably armed and could have stopped this. Governor Abbott himself would have likely rushed the school. This isnt about him….it’s about police failures
Blunder, no a Blunder is stepping on your sunglasses.
This was incompetence, but mark my words none of these cops will truly, and I mean truly be held responsible.
Maybe the cops will get the judge that cried for that female cop who mistakes her gun for her Tazer😖🥺🤮
They won't be held responsible simply because the Supreme Court ruled years ago that cops are required to put their life on the line for anyone. The fact that people still expect that is laughable. Cops only shoot when the other party is unarmed. So, the SCOTUS ruling, combined with sovereign immunity guarantees no one will be held responsible for this entire situation. Fabulous country, right?
I’ve been to a baby’s funeral. One of the saddest things I’ve ever saw.
Parents trying to enter the school to save the children were stopped by the police who refused to help. Absolutely heart-wrenching and outrageous.
Not only that, but they stopped the trained federal agents from going in too. They should be charged in some way.
How are they supposed to get to an unknown active shooter with parents running around in the building!!! Who is then the shooter? If the shooter throws his gun down and calms to be a relative of one of the kids? If the police let them in and they all get killed? Has the active shooter got pipe bombs? Grenades? You cant just let anyone and that includes trained officers to run blind into a building.
Theyre cowards
@@johnprosser5035 make more excuises for the cops that allowed children to be gunned down while ACTIVELY stopping anyone from helping.
The tough talkin’, gun totin’, totally Red, NRA singin’, #2 praisin’, gun guys from Texas… backed down. Watch them clamor for, wait for it: more guns. They’re all loonies.
We need the resignation of all 19 police officers that were standing in the hallway immediately. Never forget the cowardness of Uvalde Texas Police Department.
Absolutely!! Terminate & charge them.
Naw, they'll all get paid vacations during the "investigation" and no harm, no foul for them.
Ditto
They had strength in numbers. What more they need?
Those 19 cops will have to live with there inaction for the rest of there lives.
The way to tell if something is precious to you is how hard and how far you are willing to fight for it. The American public has proven that their guns and the right to bear arms is far more precious than the lives of people and especially our children. If that were not the truth we would have fought for gun laws that would have resolved this issue instead of finding reasons, excuses give explanations as to why we and how we should keep our guns. People have said that this Country has always been a Country to bear arms and that is true. Our forefathers wrote it in the Constitution with not one reference in the Constitution about children, women or minorities. Why??? Because they were considered to not be considered. They were expendable. Today it's our children who have to fight for themselves to be recognized. Take the Parkland shooting where students who became activist were mock, belittled and shamed by pro gun activist for their desire to have something done about gun violence. It is ridiculous that we are in our 27th school gun shooting in 2022 and we are only in our 5th month of this year. And to act like our children ( people in general) are precious is a real joke because it should have only taken 1 school shooting to have turned things around. But the precious gun and the rights of guns is far more important than a human life.
Agree completely there is no reason, no excuses
Please read up on the supreme court justice Warren Burger
And I can say with certainty that nothing will change. Did you hear Ted Cruz's speech to the NRA? Very little sympathy here for Texas...
Apparently Governor Abbott's lividness had a terribly short "shelf life." This raises the question of whether Abbott was "livid" because law enforcement officials actively lied to grieving parents--and to him, the governor of Texas; or was he "livid" due to being so embarrassed publicly--and potentially hurt politically--once the truth was revealed?
If I am supposed to give police respect because they put their lives at risk, then I expect them to dang well risk their lives to save children from being murdered. Every one of those officers should turn in their badges and resign in disgrace.
To protect and to serve ???
@@marksnyder123 To pretend to serve...
@@marksnyder123 To harass and arrest unless you are actively killing kids then we'll protect you from the parents
Let's just call it like it is...COWARDS the lot of them
NEGLIGENT HOMICIDE! The gutless police need to go to jail!!!
So much for the BS “good people with guns, stop bad people with guns” belief. These guys were TRAINED and did NOTHING.
Then how was the killer stopped?
@@RichardMiller-tq6ut by waiting 45 mins
They don't get enough training to deal with real criminals... considering that you apparently need more training to become a US plumber than to become a US cop
"Good guy" with a gun didn't work in Buffalo either.
Because he was holding 20 kids hostage
Keep it up MSNBC! Don't stop talking about this! Don't let this fade! America needs your voice to save ourselves!
So, how are those "thoughts and prayers" working for you, Texas? You get what you vote for.
Mind boggling, children being butchered, police waiting outside for reinforcements, parents being prevented from going in to try and safe their children. What’s really disgusting is the lies of the authorities afterwards, sick to my stomach!
I'd rather see an abortion from a clinic than watch living, breathing lives being slaughtered like this.
A WALKING, TALKING ABORTION.
Don't not fall for the deflection. Those politicians are to blame for the slaughter of those kids. Nobody else, don't let them off the hook
You mispelled "authoritarians"

This kind of police apathy is very common in the country I come from. Don't expect this in America.
The fact that the governor said it could have been worse tells you everything you need to know about people like that
That response is a thinly-veiled threat.

Yep. T G it wasn't hundreds massacred (like in Las Vegas) at that country concert (plz fact chk my figures there...I'm 2 nauseous to do it myself) Maybe it was 60? I'm puking.
So the police told the kids to yell help without knowing the full assessment of the situation in the class and caused one kid to lose their life because it made the kid identifiable to the shooter! The policeman that told the kids to yell help should be held accountable and face murder charges.
Heads need to roll for this amount of utter negligence. Abbott needs to fire the heads of these law enforcement departments and then Texas needs to fire Abbott in November.
“911, what is your emergency?”
“A crime is being committed and the cops are just standing there. WTF?!”
Occifer safety mate. Cowards more like it. 🇦🇺
tbf... they weren't just standing there... some of them were macing and handcuffing parents trying to save their children.
“Where is the suspect?”
“There is one in here killing us and several outside the door and in the streets detaining the citizens trying to help us”
They. Had to digest. Do. Nuts. Then. Waited. For. The pizza they ordered
"Quick! Send in the army!"
"Oh wait, the shooter is white."
"Everything is fine guys!"
Hearing screams of parents crying and pleading for the police to go in save their children breaks my heart.
Mine too. 😢
That's because you have a heart....unlike Governor Abbott, Ted Cruz and so on. Those crying screaming parents mean nothing to them. Only their own careers and lining their own pockets mean anything to them. As long as their kids aren't getting shot they don't lose a minute of sleep.
Mine too 😭
Cops are ego maniacs. They wear a clown suit, stomp on your rights. The worse kind of cowardice.
Those "cops" should be stripped of all authority and never be allowed to even touch a weapon or badge again.
The fact that the police were quick enough to immediately pat themselves on the back was enough for me to hear they failed miserably.
I'm ticked, my prayers go out to these family's , I'll close by praying for humanity and pray for the hatred to subside.🙏
How somebody can stand outside for an hour listening to shots being fired and not doing anything is beyond my comprehension
This is what you get when you campaign for "Defund the Police". Any cops that may have been good at their jobs left and now you have bottom of the barrel cops that just want to collect a paycheck. Congrats. You did it.
In 1999 columbine shooting police also was standing outside doing nothing while shooters were killing. Nothing changed
Pigs are cowards.
Those cowards should have handed their weapons to the parents
@@ozzyfernandez8228 Some police handcuffed parents to fences to stop them from trying to get into the schools??
An unarmed teacher shielding her kids while 19 cops stood outside the door..my heart just breaks..the kids in room called 911 and were put on hold
This hits different, and then a troll has the nerve to make a comment because of the assault weapons, he said we must want to be unarmed like Ukrainian s !!!!!! This is America, and this can’t happen again.
And for the Morons that say, give the teachers guns. Even if they had one this young man had an Assault weapon. No match to a Gun. Teachers are there to teach, not engage in Combat.
I’m reminded of the buffalo grocery store employee who called 911 whilst the massacre there was taking place and the dispatcher told her to stop whispering then hung up on her.
even though she wasn't getting paid her worth and her profession was being attacked by politicians. she still did it. She still tried to protect those babies. It ain't right.

@@alexgibb8406 How about we train them to defend the people they are supposed to serve instead of themselves?? Or we can get rid of the guns. That option is way better...
True
No argument. We also might want to look at the main point of the piece, which is - why allow military grade weapons to be bought by civilians to be used in mass shootings? Maybe grenade launchers should be available too?
Their job was to contain and secure the area. You do not breach a door unless you know what is going on inside the room or you have a tactical advantage in the situation. I'm sorry that you think the police are the evil people in this situation and that in your ignorance you likely think that if you had been there you would have kicked in the door and taken the guy out when the truth is likely the opposite. I'm more sorry that all it took was three days for the media to shift from focusing on the real issue, ease of access to weapons, and a culture that believes 19 children are acceptable losses just so long as a few people can own guns that have no place in sociaty. I'm so glad you've all found a villain you can rally together against.
Everything is big in Texas including cowardice. How can an armed cop not enter a room to save children even at the cost of his own life.
Well said .
The Yellow State ..
TX and their big everything, bunch of cowards!
As a mother who lost my child I felt every bit of this pain so deeply. This angers me!!!
SO SO SAD..
THE PEOPLE IN OFFICE DON'T CARE...IT'S SICKENING.
THIS WORLD IS SICK
That mother sobbing on the ground. That’s the worst pain a woman could ever feel.
Im sorry for the American innocent people and children die for no reason you guys in the United States afto to put a stop. Stand up for life's the people in government simple and plain
She should be able to make the police feel the same pain.
I felt like I was on the ground with her, my child in that killing field, NO ONE going in, my child is in there, the ONLY thing I want is to save my child.
Were is their SHAME ?
Fathers too. Let's not leave us out. The pain is not the same but we feel too.
I find this hard to wrap my head around. " Little children are slowly murdered". " Police outgunned" . NRA then turns up in Texas and hold their convention and Governor Greg Abbott finds time to do a political speech to the NRA while those murdered babies have not even been laid to rest yet. Despicable
Now you know the extent of Abbott's concern for his fellow Texans. Vote the SOB out! He's proven that he can't be trusted. He and his Republican pals are bad for Texas, especially minority Texans and their children.
Gov. Abbott is a disgusting POS... period!!
I agree with you but I the way I'm understanding that nra thing had been scheduled and the various entertainment, the dignified thing to do would have been to either cancel your appointment to appear or cancel it completely we see just how much dignity and decency there honestly is by the all those that were in attendance physically or other wise, and for what to pat each other on the back, purchase things that feed into the stereotype of a "super-hero" myth all are only human, deserving of decency, and respect no matter who you are, when you have a job to do that others have been lead to believe is to protect and serve, then do just that.
Yup, Abbott he's a big part of the problem, POS.
Gotta make sure that $$$ keeps flowing in. Republicans make money from fear and now make it very clear that the blood of children is worth the checks as well. Glad I switched parties after Trump. Wish I had switched sooner.
Beyond sickening
Disgusting and horrifically cruel.
You had all these cops bravely holding back parents while their kids were systematically being slaughtered at leisure. What a brave bunch of guys.
It's absolutely pathetic they need to be fired, can't have wimps like this wearing the badge
Now we know why they want teachers to be armed, because the cops are cowards
Now we know why police are called pigs.

THE RESPONSE FROM TX SHOULD BE AS FOLLOWS:
"Today, Gov Abbutt and his entire administration RESIGNED."
"And the on-scene-commander was fired."
Yeah. If they have any self respect they will do that or at least commit suicide. Cause at this point suicide is actually more honorable than their lack of action.
That will not reduce Military gear from the street or make the police well equipped when on duty. Wrong wrong approach. There has to be one superior side. Think hard about what you just watched. Think as a parent of one of the kids, as a police on the scene and as a gun lobbyist.

All I can say is that those police officers who were there were cowards, why wait, kids were being shot, phone calls from inside the school asking for the police to come and rescue them, 19 kids and two adults paid with their lives because the police chief who had no experience in that type of situation
Ban the manufacture, sale and ownership of the AMMUNITION!.

19 cops vs one 18 year old...19 cops waited around outside,they roughed up a parent that insisted they act while the murder of children continued within earshot ..literally, earshot.
There is no amount of training that can prepare a cop for this. It’s just not possible. Yet they still vomit the nonsense of a good guy with a gun. Maybe seal team six could have stoped this , but no way a bunch of dumb deputies with minimal training. Also, cowardice.

A " Blunder" would imply actions had taken place. This was NO blunder bc none did anything...they did absolutely zero while children were screaming & parents begging them to do something. They ALL have a Childs blood on their hands & I don't know how a grown man can live with that stain!
The decision was made to WAIT for a tactical team to “BREACH” the door??? Did the 18 year old gunman call ANYONE to help him “BREACH” the door??? He just waltzed IN!!!
The cops have guns and bigger guns in their cars, but they wanted other cops with slightly bigger guns to show up to fight a kid. I guess the concept of a gun saving you but only if its loaded and only if its near you and ONLY if you're in the right place at the right time fits every situation. So then Guns really are the problem.
The cops and governor in that state are all cowards! All of them need to be held accountable for this tragedy, but we all know that will not happen!
Lol if the door was unlocked and not blocked.
Wedged open.
The door was probably unlocked when the P.O.S arrived and he locked the door behind him. School locks and doors are high grade, built to last for a generation. You can't easily kick in a typical school door. Shooting the lock would take a couple of shots, then kick the door. By then the shooter is blasting away through the door. The doors are strong but not bullet-proof. No-win scenario for the police without body armour or shields and fully automatic weapons with large magazines.
I've been in construction for forty years, built many schools. Never once was there a design consideration for active shooters. But then, I live in Canada, we don't worship guns. We see what gun love has done to the US and we don't want that here. But just today a man in Toronto was shot to death by police for walking near a school with a rifle. Turned out to be a pellet gun.
@@livinginvancouverbc2247 if they break into black and brown folks homes they couldve easily gotten into that school. ive worked for the school county a decade, and you need a pair of keys to lock those doors. and lock the officer speaking in the interview said it was their JOB to go right into that school 1 cop or 20 cops doesnt matter!
They were not outgunned. I saw all those sheriff deputies with body armor and long guns. Outgunned in this situation is a false narrative. They simply chose not to act.
You are absolutely correct, one guy two hands vs 19 guys 38 hands all zero heart or brains

Amen.
@@roddyframe123456 Good description 👌
That's right. Had these cowards gone in as a group, armed, with body armor on, they could have stopped the shooter without any more loss of life. "TO SERVE AND PROTECT" the police motto is now a sick, meaningless lie.
This is why I respect Buffalo police. They arrived within minutes and approached the shooter. They risked their lives.
This is exactly to the reason why use of greater force will not work as a the way to put down active shooters! Waiting outside is becoming a too familiar refrain of armed resource officers on campus sent to aid the innocent.
This whole situation is disgusting. Us Aussie's are sending our condolences once again and sadly, this won't be the last time we do.

@@danwright1794 yeah Dan you trolling again what the f***🤔
Let this day be known as the day those Texas authorities sworn “To Protect and to Serve” did neither.
Cowards of the country
Instead of Above and beyond they showed how low they could go!!! It's sickening!!!
They protected themselves and served their own interests.
Our "heroes" would rather go for the low hanging fruit of illegal aliens and drug offenders!
Texas tough until bravery is is required. Abbottism
All of them need to be fired. Period...
This entire situation was appalling and unnecessary. The police are a bunch of cowards. They disgust me. The commander of this bunch who shouldn't have been commanding anything should now face criminal charges.
Who would have thought the best argument for "defund the police" would come from Texas law enforcement?. All that expensive gear and training was waisted on them.
I think I read 40 percent of their budget was spent .
Fine but pick only one option. Either fund better police or stfu about banning guns. And oh btw, this is a border town so lest you forget Dummycrats voted in a crisis that is tying up good law enforcement even from small towns.
They had to think about it. Freaking cowards
They have to follow orders it's not fair to say that all police officers are cowards. The person who told them to stand down as the one who's responsible. This isn't the Wild Wild West where you get to do whatever you want.
What's worse is that they LIED about the response time
NO doubt about that! Texas Police in there SHOULD resign! *All police have bullet proof armor, required and given, and these so-called Texas Police head saying why it took 90-minutes to go in, saying during news conference, "we needed more equipment, body amor, special equipment..." After I have listened the commonsense defying sickening loads of bul shets new conference with reporters, I almost fell off from the chair!" All the regular training of shootings paid for my police department, they have guns, refiles, even shot gun, best in close quarter combat, and what the miserable imbecile saying translated to them wanted, tank, APC for gun man only armed with pistole and rifle! Oh, my my, what kind of police, correction, despicable shameless cowards they are! I would immediately go into the school and engaging in combat since I have body amor, pretending I am a police officer, and side arm and rifle or shot gun is even batter, and engaging in battle. But that would be too risk for those cowards at the best plus dirty liers scared dog with tails in its legs!
The "pigs" are only interested in "attacking, killing" "soft targets", like "unarmed black & brown people".
Every police manual says that an officer has to intervene when there's an active shooter in a school. Officers have to potentially sacrifice their lives to engage the gunman so others may have a chance to run to safety.
Or so you would think
The governor and the police of Texas are sad this is sad
Sounds like they are accomplices after the fact. Criminal negligence.
Exactly!! 💯!
The accomplices before the fact are the GOP voters.
Spread the word that the three articles of exception of the supreme Court ruling unmask and strip away a police officers qualified immunity.
Absolutely! They should all face lawsuits and criminal charges.
Amen👏🏼.
Why have none of these men resigned or been fired yet? This is outrageous!
Good luck with that. They'll never be fired properly get a promotion. I'll say again bunch of cowards.
They should also all face lawsuits that bankrupt them for life. They are outright cowards.
Last I heard the justice department is investigating so I'm not sure what goes on after that what a job to have there especially if your a parent, know someone whose been a victim of gun violence, or any other type of violence.
Thank god they used the key to get in the classroom. Damaging the door would have been such a tragedy. /s
It's not just criminals that shouldn't have weapons of war... NO ONE should have weapons of war.
Even cops say they can't out gun an AR and yet banning them isn't the answer? Give me a break. Our country is beyond repair.
We need to remove the obstructions to the rational world we want, we need, and our children deserved, the one envisioned by those who designed this country. Let’s start by demanding change, educating those who do not understand the gravity of the current situation, and voting in such unprecedented numbers that even by cheating the obstructionists cannot win.
Then they should have ars in their trunk. Those p.o.s's. They should have a rifle vest in their trunk.
**How many times are people going to do the "my condolences" claptrap?
Let's get a grip, we have a huge EASY GUNS problem in our country and one political party is mostly
responsible for it.
Especially since this will change nothing.
@@johnjones3813 of course it won't. I bet within the next 14 days this will happen again.
I bet you this is the same kind of cops that will pull over a busload of girls to search through their personal items, for no other reason, than their skin colour.
I think race factored into to this as well. Let's see them tell a group of white parents, "we'll wait awhile". And what was up with the DNA? I've never heard of them doing that before. I am so disgusted!
Southern white women here, FYI.
I keep looking at those babies pictures and look at my grand kids playing running happy just been a kid so sorry for the pain this parnts are going through all my prayers for all of them
@@TDavis_333 I can be completely sure, but I think some of the kids where shot in the face. Sadly they could not be identified. Take care.
This is what you get when you campaign for "Defund the Police". Any cops that may have been good at their jobs left and now you have bottom of the barrel cops that just want to collect a paycheck. Congrats. You did it.
You must lose alot of money gambling
Everyone there was in on it. From the shooter to the police
I don't understand why the possibility of wounded children needing emergency care was not factored in.
The position of being a cop attracts too many of the wrong type of people. These cops failed to say the least.
Telling obvious lies by politicians and public officials are the norm now. No shame at all
And yet voters continue to install them into government positions.
And msnbc
That's why I only trust the North Korean News
So wait till he runs out of kids and then
Normal for Republicans.
They waited 1 hour 20 minutes???? Holy SMOKES, that’s horrendous!!
I can't imagine what it's like listening to your child being murdered
The security guard/ retired police officer, at the TOPS supermarket in Buffalo and that doctor who sacrificed his life, to stop a gunman inside his church in California, and those two teachers in that classroom in Uvalde, Texas, who died trying to protect their kids from that gunman, had more courage than all those police officers, who stood outside the classroom, hearing the perpetrator shooting children.
This is the best comment I have read on this massacre.
💯Exactly 💯
Agreed now we know who are the bravest among us ☮️
I'm noticing a trend though. A few officers actually get held accountable for not being able to tell the difference between a cell phone... or a pack of cigarettes... or an individuals neck versus an approved point of contact to hold them in place, and suddenly police are very willing to let people die to justify why they need a bigger budget.
And the media seems to be unwitting accomplices....
You said it! There is no way they thought the shooter was simply barricaded in that room. There were still sounds of gunfire & children calling for help! The police couldn't hear the gunfire?
Will somebody be a true American Patriot and push Greg Abbott off the stage, literally
While playing Ludacris Roll Out 😬
And make sure the stage is at least 100 feet tall, literally.
I second that
@@lesterchin228 With sharpened poles underneath...
make sure he is strapped in and the stage is next to a deep body of water, then push the LT Gov in after him.
“There was time to retrieve the key…”!!!!
This is my first ever…WOW!
Maybe the cops just wanted to make sure the shooter had some time to play with his constitutionally protected gun.
"it could have been worse", says Governor Gregg Abbott. Tell that to the 19 mothers and fathers who can no longer laugh with their children, hug them with love, comfort them when they are sad...and instead are planning funerals. I don't believe it could be much worse for them.
I just can't believe Gov. Abbott said those words, we saved a lot of kids that day, I can't wait when Gov. Abbott has a press conference and he has to look into the eyes of those parents whose kids were killed senselessly by a teenager who had no right purchasing a AR-15, what excuse will he come up with
I wonder if he would think that if we put him in that classroom with those children??🤔🤔🤔
Gregg Abbott Texas Grim reaper on wheels
Gregg Abbott is an insensitive, SOB.
No, tell him "It could have been better by PREVENTING it in the 1st place!" BTW As long as the NRA is lining the pockets of these elected officials we won't see any change on gun control. Vote those jack*sses OUT OF OFFICE!
Oh, please... the Police were not outgunned. They have the SAME weapons as that 18 year old shooter. The same calibre and muzzle velocity. The same body armour. What they lacked was guts.
Thank You!!!

Get a grip, we have a huge EASY GUNS problem in our country and one political party is mostly
responsible for it.
Where's the outrage over a teacher that propped open the door that the shooter came through? It doesn't make any difference how good your response plan is if employees circumvent the security system in place.
And why is nobody talking about that teacher that left that door opened where this killer was able to enter the school.....that staff employee should be held accountable for such stupidity ,that maybe if he/she would of gone in thru the front doors like everyone does.....this tragic wouldn't of occurred....I think we all want to know about this employee too!!!!!
The police, who are sworn to serve and protect, valued their own safety over defenseless children.
A polite way of saying they're p--ssies.
If ever there was "an hour of need", then this was it. And those poor children were failed beyond belief! Heads should roll for this.
******How many times have you heard that same "hour of need" claptrap?
Get a grip, we have a huge EASY GUNS problem in our country and one political party is mostly

That governor said the FBI is going to be handling this so let us all hope justice is swift key word accountability all around.
@@traceykoontz2868 There's nothing swift about justice, especially when the federal government is involved.
Starting with the cowardly cops and the even more cowardly Governor.
thats because this entire police department accessorized themself to the murder of 19 children.
So, now we are saying there wasn't enough doors because this one was locked? Not good.
People we need to vote these cowards out .
they are only aggressive when the individual is unarmed
Exactly. Unarmed black man with a bit of weed? They'd be all over him. Teenager murdering innocent children, they stand around twiddling their thumbs. Absolute cowards.
Or black
I said the same thing. They can't keep the same energy when rabbit got the gun.
Facts
This is disgusting and tragic. Shame on the police and government officials!

"Those poor kids calling 911 for help were honestly begging for their very Lives"...
Those cops should be attacked anytime they show their face in public. COWARDS !!!!!!!
This is what you voted for, stop crying now!
@@terryquinn7765 What you voted for? Republicans refuse to pass any kind of gun safety laws. How do you know if she voted for a republican? This is Texas, so it would be mostly republican.
They would've responded quicker to an unarmed person inside a car. THAT Person is WAY scarier.
Do they all understand that the school's outside Camera show's
A Teacher Opens the Gate minute's before the Gunner showed up... WHY ????????????????????????????????
Why are ppl so hesitant to say what's staring them in the face? THOSE MEN WERE COWARDS! While children were being murdered, those COWARDS stood there and did nothing. We all know it.
Agreed
Well, they did do something. They handcuffed hysterical parents who were imploring them to get in there and save their children, or let them go instead.
Amen! I agree and concur! All my posted comments mention these officers cowardous,cowardly inept inaction and duly warrant the repercussions that all officials involved from the top down deserve!
The worst form of coward, how tf can you be scared in a 1v19....
They should have had the same energy they have with “no knock warrants”
OUTRAGE!!! the only word 😔
This is one of the reasons I will never step foot in the US again. Pure negligence
Governor Abbott is “livid”. Gee, me too. The difference is that he can do something about it and I can’t. He
knows that. He is a small man.
I don’t believe a word that comes out that Gov.’s mouth.Ted Cruz is a joke how do he manage to get re-elected?
You mean like…in his pants?
Almost all the mass shooting take olace very close to 1° & 2° narcotics transportation highways.
Uvalde was a mjor transportation hub. Think ppl. Think.
Who is in charge if those highways?
.
I wonder, what would be there response if this happened to kids where their children attend???? Are these children just important if not more???? They want us to treat this as a normality, the usual, this is what it is but we can’t let these people dictate who lives or dies !!!!!!!!!! GET THESE PEOPLE OUT OF OFFICE NOW!!!!!!!!
@@donaldyoung2983 its been the agenda, slbeit for many generations... Since roosevelt was pres for 3 terms. Our leaders have known our system was doomed to fail . And it continually falters.
Its rly ionly been since bush2 and 9.11 its bounced fast forward...
And here we are. A huge major part of the problem is our system if politics & pols. We are kinda stuck w our system - which btw? They kno and want to change..
They think we, the ppl are too headstrong.. and we will refuse to change.. so theyve got an ultra slow step by step plan to sllow us to age out and it only goes generation ny generation...
Thus why they want to step. By step? Take our guns away.. etc..
This killingof our kids?
I simply cannot tolerate.
Ppl kno there's a game afoot n it nakes em kinda crazy.... because they try to inderstand. it HAS to change, our physical world is *GOING TO CHANGE* but the pols think we'll fall for a leader like trump who cons is w a line of b.s. many fall for.
Thats the real danger.
Abt all we can do now? Is drag our feet on the changes.
Fires? Flooding also help to motivate pppl to move away from those seemingly normal not nice scenarios... and towards clumping.

Cowards. Each and every one of them. The mother who was wrongly handcuffed at one point, who then rushed in without a gun, a ballistic vest, or a helmet is a hero. Full stop.
They should have handed her a gun
She Deserves A Purple Heart She Was Braver Than Those 19Cop$
I've only heard that sound coming out of a mother at two funerals I attended. I never thought I would hear that again. You can't unhear that sound.
Really..!! Who want to go to court and deal with this.😩😩
