Earlier today, during a press conference the Director of Texas DPS, Steven McCraw, admitted the obvious. It was the “wrong decision” for responding police officers not to go into the Uvalde school classroom where the active shooting suspect was located. The decision to wait was made by the local police chief. WATCH:

The response did not just INCLUDE bad decisions, it BEGAN with bad decisions, some of which were made years before.
If they’re not there to protect us, why do we have them? Why are we paying for them? I’m beginning to think the defund police crowd may have been correct. Law enforcement today is only there to keep useless eaters in line and to protect the corrupt rulers who pay their pensions. They’re bought and paid for and serve only the elite.
An armed society is a polite society. Defend yourself, but have self-defense insurance. You will be charged and sued, and prevented from entering the school to save your kids from being massacred.
Something is really strange in all this.
My spidey sense tells me the drug cartels might be involved in this.
Local police dude in charge at the scene was born and raised there. 50 miles from the Mexican border. decades on their local police department. Most of the population is Mexican and it appears the local school police guy Arradondo is also Mexican. So … choices appear to be all Mexicans be stoopid and/or lethargic, or … cartel pay-off. Again, too, I ask where did the kid get the money to buy his paraphenalia?
I think we will see many diversions this year. Most will occur within the next 5 months. I don’t know why that came to my mind but, there you have it.
Hope I’m doing this right. Came across this video a few minutes ago. He was friends of one of the victims and knew the shooter. Said the shooter was not bullied, but was the bully, and not a nice person the hurt animals.
Why is Texas DPS apologising when it was Federal Marshals calling the shots????
Great questions! Ones you know the actual “investigators” will never think of, nor ask…
Much does not add up in all this.
How does an 18 y/o without a great paying job, living in a small cottage with his grandmother, afford a high end Daniel Defense AR with a high end EOTech optic and a nice pickup truck ?
Even our rural sheriff’s office in north Georgia where I work understands the risk and has adopted an innovative H.E.R.O. approach rather than the usual SRO model with an almost retired elderly deputy as we saw in the Florida school shooting..
Our H.E.R.O. Unit places a SWAT deputy in each school with multiple CCTV monitors in a “bunker” room with full auto M-4 and Level 4 body armor with primary mission to move aggressively on any shooter immediately with orders to eliminate the threat at all costs. The only deputies assigned this duty are highly experienced LEOs with actual experience in gunfights and special operations military vets.

If I actually think deep about what these children had to go through, it naturally makes me want to do something similar to the demonic evil trash who are orchestrating these massacres and using their suffering to promote evil political agendas. They know who they are. I have to stop thinking about it but I pray they feel my wrath one day.
Has FBI and CIA and HSA all over it.
I support law and order but I recognize that law and order does not mean automatically backing the police or enforcing onerous laws and mandates on the public.
Law and order means appropriately holding criminals and corrupt politicians accountable and allowing law abiding people to live in peace and safety.
The police in the Uvalde school shooting showed extreme cowardice and incompetence by waiting for over an hour before confronting the killer and attending to the wounded students and staff.
Some of the victims may have been saved and some of the victims may never even have been shot had the police acted sooner.
The delayed response of the police in Uvalde is the same as what happened in the Columbine and Parkland school shootings. I’m tired of this same thing happening over and over again.
The police officers involved need to be charged, prosecuted, convicted, and strongly sentenced for their cowardice. There can be no more tolerance of this type of police cowardice.
It seems that the police justified their delayed response based on their determination that the suspect was “barricaded,” but that is an absurd and flimsy excuse.
Even if the suspect was barricaded, there were still injured victims who needed tended to. There is also the fact that any survivors were forced to be “barricaded” in the same room as the killer for over an hour while the police did nothing. That would be pure psychological torture for the survivors.
The way police approach “barricaded” suspects clearly needs to be changed.
It seems that the police hesitate to confront physically dangerous or politically powerful suspects, but will gladly harass ordinary, peaceful, law abiding people.
In the Uvalde school shooting, the police hesitated to confront the shooter, but didn’t hesitate to confront the parents who tried to enter the school to save their children.
This phenomenon extends beyond the context of school shootings.
For example, not a single police agency in the entire state of Illinois ever tried to go after former speaker Mike Madigan for his 50 year reign of corruption over the state, yet many police in Illinois had no problem enforcing Governor Pritzker’s onerous covid mandates against ordinary, law abiding people.
The police clearly view ordinary, law abiding citizens as easy targets for harassment, but cowardly shy away from pursuing politically powerful or physically dangerous suspects.
