Incomprehensible mass shooting happens again

[thilanliyan]

And millions of American's nod in agreement. Shameful.

It is baffling to me that people become so brainwashed they continually vote against their own interests and any semblance of sanity.

The statewide electeds are really terrible here but exceedingly proud they are unnecessarily large pieces of shit. Never really seen anything quite like it.

I'd be fine if they met in public and the result was Fred Guttenberg dismembering Paxton with a rusty linoleum knife.

What if the cops just did an unthinkably negligent job? Like one so bad it could send the town to torches and pitchforks level. Seems like a reason they might refuse to release the records.

Not incomprehensible at all. That equipment is reserved for drug busts where they can seize property to auction off. How are they supposed to make any money protecting kids from getting murdered?

 

[K1052]

They really just didn't bother eh

God the police are worthless. 40% of the town's budget went to these cowards who could have stopped the shooter within three minutes.

I hope it was cowardice and not corruption that prevented them from confronting the gunman.

I honestly don't know if I could control myself Las a Uvalde parent the more we learn about that police department.

He was arrested, however, after he was found to … be in possession of brass knuckles, which are illegal in Oklahoma."

A weapon capable of mass murder is perfectly legal but brass knuckles aren't ... i see priorities are set straight ...

 

[IronWing]

The brass knuckle lobby needs to bribe some politicians.

Absolutely perfect for illustrating the fucked up state of weapons laws in this country.

Just another responsible murder enthusiast until he is an actual murderer.

If there was a dildo in his car, that's a mandatory minimum sentence of 5yrs.

Dude, that guy.

....he's just going to get bitter and bitter and bitter about these people and that place. A young cop. His team forced him not to save his dying wife. Holy shit.

He isn't going anywhere. They aren't going to do anything to him, and he's just going to get more and more bitter. This is not going to go well for Uvalde.

Texas school shooting: heavily armed police with ballistic shields were there ‘within 19 minutes’

Timeline published in local news reports suggests police in Uvalde had ability to confront gunman far earlier during May attack in which 21 died

www.theguardian.com

School district police Chief Pete Arredondo called the Uvalde police department landline and reported that their suspect had “shot a lot” with an AR-15-style rifle and outgunned the officers at the school, who he said were armed only with pistols, the outlets reported.

I'm having trouble reconcilling this comment from the police chief, with the comments made by some in this thread that there's nothing especially dangerous about "assault weapons" like AR-15s compared to handguns. Seems the police chief, rightly-or-wrongly, thought otherwise.

 

[Pens1566]

If we weren't a shit-hole country, the feds would be on their way in to clean out this town/dept. More than enough evidence that I'm sure someone can link to civil rights violations for a consent decree.

A group of trained police officers do outgun a child with a semi-auto long rifle. The fact that no police were hit tells me they didn't try to engage.

sure, but they’re not obligated to, correct?
