From the article and hearing
“Texas Department of Public Safety Director Steven McCraw walked through an updated timeline of events from the Uvalde shooting and read aloud from a transcript of police radio communications.
The transcript describes Uvalde school district Police Chief Pete Arredondo and other officers speculating on the status of those inside the classroom and painstakingly debating whether and how to breach the door.”
So we now know for a fact that the chief had a radio or at least access to one. The whole “I didn’t know dying kids were calling 911” thing is looking really flimsy.
Uvalde shooting hearing: Police response was 'abject failure'
The Texas state Senate heard testimony Tuesday on the Uvalde shooting as part of a committee hearing on preventing future mass shootings in Texas.abcnews.go.com

BTW. We know how he paid for the guns now. He had a joint bank account with his grandmother and paid for them with her money using a debit card. So no, the FBI didn’t buy them.
Well, not from his mouth but just a little more info...I wanna hear what this cop has to say...
Texas Department of Public Safety Director Col. Steven McCraw... said Mireles called Ruiz and told him that “she had been shot and was dying.”
“And what happened to him, is he tried to move forward into the hallway,” McCraw said. “He was detained and they took his gun away from him and escorted him off the scene.”
McCraw didn’t say who specifically detained Ruiz.
Wife, kid, anybodys kids.Well, not from his mouth but just a little more info...
Officer husband of slain Uvalde teacher was detained, had gun taken away after trying to save wife
Took his gun away?
If my wife lay bleeding to death on the other side of a door just down a hallway from me, my gun would be hard to take away without going off. Several times.
Gives me something closer to rage....It gives me sads.
Its truly disappointing with all those Everything is "BIGGER IN TEXAS" fathers in the parking lot, apparently not a Crayon Eatin Ground Pounder among them.Gives me something closer to rage.
That mom sure had Texas sized balls though.Its truly disappointing with all those Everything is "BIGGER IN TEXAS" fathers in the parking lot, apparently not a Crayon Eatin Ground Pounder among them.
Knowing what we know now I would vote to acquit any parent or family member who used any level of force up to and including deadly force to remove those police officers from their path. Sorry not sorry. This goes so far beyond cowardice. They were acting as accomplices to help the shooter get his high score.Well, not from his mouth but just a little more info...

I think that's a reasonable mitigating circumstance. Clearly those officers were not following protocol in the first place. Instead of spending time holding parents and husbands back, they should have confronted the shooter as soon as they got on scene. You can't expect people to just stand there when they know their loved ones are in there while the shooter is still actively shooting people.Knowing what we know now I would vote to acquit any parent or family member who used any level of force up to and including deadly force to remove those police officers from their path.

I hope Indiana parents pay attention to this and I hope they show up armed and in kit when the day comes that this happens at their children's school. This needs to be the watershed event where we decide that we're no longer asking for permission to save our kids.
Exactly. You can hold people back when you're telling them the shooter's soul has been violently evicted from his body and you need the hallways clear for the train of EMS that is hauling victims out as quickly as possible. You may NOT hold people back because it interferes with you protecting the shooter and doing nothing. Absolutely not. "This is our job not yours" ceases to be valid when you stop doing your job.I think that's a reasonable mitigating circumstance. Clearly those officers were not following protocol in the first place.

If the cops had responded like they were trained to respond, the people with loved ones inside the school wouldn't have felt like they had to do it. I mean. 3 ****ing minutes! The shooter entered the school at 11:33. Three officers entered the building at 11:36. Some had rifles. Some had a shield. This event should have been over by 11:37. It should have been over before any parents even got on scene. It could have been.
The idiot in charge actually pulled officers out of the school to do crowd control.Exactly.

This is a conversation for another thread.We need to instill a better foundation with our kids, if there’s guns in the home, kids should learn to have respect for them at an early age. Respect for adults have dwindled over the last 20-30 years. Stop having the secular world raise our kids. What happened with all the values and ethics in society. Feels like a free for all, which grooms this generation for actions such as this. And if you know your kid has serious mental issues get them help if you can’t do it yourself. We need to open mental hospitals again.
And are reaping the results…This is a conversation for another thread.
To be short, the mental health of our youth hinges on the family unit. We have left the idea of the family unit behind decades ago.

Kit now lives in my vehicle. Vehicle sleeps in the garage at night. I hate that this is what the world has come to but I’d never be able to live with myself if I showed up to that scene at my daughters school and my kit was sitting at the house.I hope Indiana parents pay attention to this and I hope they show up armed and in kit
