I happen to believe that you’re a moron if you believe the tool used to perform the job doesn’t have at least some role along with the person using it.
Hmmm…I don’t think YOU’RE a MORON or PARANOID. Just a hypocrite…you folks are a bit paranoid huh don’t like an idea, immediately label someone. Just as bad as the leftists.
I bet if I had a 2x4 in my hand I could beat you to death in a matter of minutes. Should we ban houses too?Obviously that’s not what I’m saying. I’m saying is what’s in your hand can be just as deadly as the person wielding it.
Don't feed the trolls.Your f***ed in head just for saying that. What role did the rifle play? it was used. The rifle can't act.
Why were children either not being herded/fleeing in the opposite direction, or all classrooms with people in them not locked from the inside? Apparently they had locks and warning. Strike onegunman Salvador Ramos was outside the school firing his rifle for about 12 minutes.
No SRO opposition. Was there one present at all? If so, where was he/she? Were they actually injured, and how? If one was present and injured then I predict their injury was from cranial-rectal insertion. Strike twoVictor Escalon Jr., a regional director for the DPS, said at a news conference Thursday that Ramos entered the building without opposition, according to The Washington Post.
Strike three. Same pitch as strike one.After that, Ramos climbed a fence, shot at the school from a parking lot, and eventually entered the school through an unlocked door, he said.
Strikes 4, 5, 6, .... This one really frosts my cheeks. As I've noted before, every analysis, case study, and actual event since at least Columbine has shown that engaging an active shooter immediately is the best course of action for a less bad outcome. It's been well documented, and practiced in many places. As far as I'm concerned the Uvalde police have their collective blood-covered heads and thumbs up their backsides.Escalon said Thursday that officers were “inside making entry” and took cover, but also said, “They don’t make entry initially because of the gunfire.” ... “They hear gunfire, they take rounds, they move back, get cover,” Escalon said.
Horrible idea!"I think it would be a great retirement off ramp for our spec operators, let them continue to serve their country by using their skills to protect America’s children, one of the highest honors possible IMO, and they make some decent retirement money without having to babysit corporate slobs or run off book jungle missions for Langley in Columbia."

Teachers Unions would freak out at having masculine Military types in our schools. It would totally ruin their narrative and derail their brainwashing of our youth.
If 'good guys with guns' aren't effective, maybe we should try hiring some armed hood homies to protect our kids. Think outside the box.

The district’s policy is to have security staff patrol door entrances, parking lots, and the perimeters of campuses at the middle and high school, according to a document listing the school district’s security measures from the 2019-20 school year.
Well, there was enough sarcasm and police bashing here already. Police sucks, it is nothing new.Ummm. No. There was no good guy with a gun, by inept design apparently.
DPS: There Was No Good Guy with a Gun Patrolling Uvalde School
The proverbial "good guy with gun" had not failed; he simply not had been present in Uvalde to stop the shooter, contrary to early reports.www.breitbart.com
That's the reason why people of the gun carry whenever possible, right? Only one you can depend on is yourself. That you can't trust the heroism and instinct of a stranger to sacrifice his life to save yours in a life or death situation. Just like these SROs thought their job was easy cruising till they get to dip into their pension but somehow got unlucky enough to be working at a school where something like this happens. They're not gonna wanna die for someone elses' kid. Prob have their own grandkids to think about.Well, there was enough sarcasm and police bashing here already. Police sucks, it is nothing new.
Truth is - any solution that relies on human heroism is usually doomed to be a failure as humans generally suck - they are no heroes.
For security to work it needs to be a system that does not require heroic acts. The real guilty one is the person who kept all the doors open.
And if future of every school is to have a metal detector at each entrance and proper search of each person entering- may be is the way it needs to be from now on.
I don't think any school shootings were due to someone sneaking in a weapon and then go to class, but point taken. One thing I think we all know for sure is more gun laws or bans won't solve this. We choose not to value our kids enough to protect them the same way we do our politicians.Well, there was enough sarcasm and police bashing here already. Police sucks, it is nothing new.

There is a system for that, already on the taxpayer dime. It’s called TSA. They have personnel, equipment and methods.I don't think any school shootings were due to someone sneaking in a weapon and then go to class, but point taken.

To bad we didn't have mental institutions where these people could be locked up away from people. Like say the Danvers mental hospital.Works great until the custodians prop the doors for two hours while moving baseball equipment outside. I saw that just today. Same thing happens a few times a week when the cafeteria gets deliveries.
I'm just saying, no passive system is foolproof and no realistic efforts are being made to change school staff's mindset with an eye toward situational awareness. That's the bigger problem, along with the GFZ.
My liberal Californicuck friends are calling for door to door, block by block, town by town gun confiscations. Everyone with an "illegal gun" gets it taken away by SWAT forces lol. "Enough is enough with the thoughts and prayers". Anyone else here welcome that plan in action? Would be some serious drama to look forward to.
The looks i get from Libtards when i remind them that the Roman army killed millions and conquered most of the known world with pointy objects are priceless.
what a lot of people don't realize is that as soon as you get out of LA/SF/SD city limits, people are extremely conservative. I see a million more Molon Labe, Gadsden flags, American flags etc on lifted trucks out here than I ever did in MA. My neighbor flies a Molon Labe flag with two ARs crossing.My liberal Californicuck friends are calling for door to door, block by block, town by town gun confiscations.

So what - the cops won't go into a school to save a bunch of kids from being shot by ONE shooter - but they're going to invade THOUSANDS of homes where at least some small percentage of said homeowners will be ready and willing to shoot them dead?
Seems like we're going to be all out of cops pretty soon if they try that shit.
Maybe you ought to point that shit out to your idiot California friends.
Then they won't do confiscations out in the boonies, they'll limit it to the cities and suburbs. Reason being is they will just cut off electricity and internet fuel and food to those out in the rural parts and let them freeze and starve. I mean, they're pretty much telegraphing that with the warnings of blackouts and food shortages.what a lot of people don't realize is that as soon as you get out of LA/SF/SD city limits, people are extremely conservative.

That strategy would probably work in the city but in the Central Valley I do believe the cops would get shot in the face.
NY is a liberal cuck shithole too and look at Safe Act compliance rates....barely exist.
This article appears to document all the infuriating police ineptitude reported to date, except the report of officers rescuing their own spawn while other children died:

<Ommmmm><Ommmm><Ommmm>
As one can tell, I've put down my box of popcorn. There still may be questions WRT the perp, but not WRT the the police response, or shall I say the ineptitude thereof.

So, basically, you want to live in the 21st Century and have modern amenities? You gotta give up your guns, get vaxxed whenever told, drive an electric car, and learn to eat insects for protein, but if you want to own guns you have to live like it's the 1870s.
