onthedarkside Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Uvalde, Texas CNN — The gunman who killed 19 students and two teachers at a Texas elementary school Tuesday was on the premises for up to an hour before law enforcement forcibly entered a classroom and killed him, officials said Wednesday. “It’s going to be within, like 40 minutes or something, (within) an hour,” Texas Department of Public Safety director Steven McCraw told CNN’s Ed Lavandera at a news conference. The 18-year-old shooter, Salvador Ramos, was in a standoff with law enforcement officers for about a half-hour after firing on students and teachers, Rep. Tony Gonzales, whose district includes Uvalde, told CNN’s Jake Tapper, citing a briefing he was given. “And then (the shooting) stops, and he barricades himself in. That’s where there’s kind of a lull in the action,” Gonzales said. “All of it, I understand, lasted about an hour, but this is where there’s kind of a 30-minute lull. They feel as if they’ve got him barricaded in. The rest of the students in the school are now leaving.” (more) https://www.cnn.com/2022/05/25/us/uvalde-texas-elementary-school-shooting-wednesday/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megasin1 Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 so 60 + 30= 90 which is what some reports were saying, 90 minutes after they arrived, which if it is true was pretty shoddy and may have accounted towards the amount killed. A child was saying that a policeman called out if you need help, call out help which a girl did and then the gunman shot her. The police will have to explain why they did nothing whilst the teachers were throwing themselves in front of the children. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JCauto Posted May 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 27, 2022 The Supreme Court essentially ruled that the police are under no obligation to protect anyone, and can watch while you're repeatedly stabbed to death. The only people who risked their lives to save the kids were the teachers, the ones who are paid a pittance, about 1/3 of what the cops get. THIS is what we (the Left) mean when we say "defund the police". They're nothing but a gang of thugs for the powers that be. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SomchaiCNX Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Sick, how many more before they realise that it is not rest of the world that is wrong? In Europe they have fire drills in kindergarten, in the States they have "shooters (invader) drill" at kindergarten level. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tropposurfer Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 (edited) The whole thing is disgusting and as many have said the Republican Governor and GOP have blood all over their hands. The Dem's too as they have proved and are known by the GOP to be too weak, too acquiescent, too cowardly, and too busy protecting their form of 'the grift' to do what is necessary to protect the children. I can't begin to tell you how utterly sickened, grief stricken, and disgusted I am. How sick, how utterly sick do you have to be?

How many times you have seen on social media of trafficking stops and 4 sodding patrol cars turn up. I'm not an American they have seriously got to get together and sort out these cowards.
