Just from reading a few other articles, I believe this agent, off duty, recd a text from school teacher wife, in the school, but another room, and he likely went saw the clusterfuck, ignored requests to stop and put on a critical incident reflective safety vest, and recovered her and brought out some other kids.

Meanwhile, while the local school police were taking critical actions such as where to park the mobile command post and fusion center, tables, pop up tents, filling out school property damage reports, and so on, the bortac-ers were looking for anything from a cafeteria spoon, e-tool, or a caterpillar with an excavator bucket to get into that classroom and kill that cocksucker, disregarding the school incident commander telling him, they’re incident commander now.

Additionally, the officials say that the Uvalde Police Department held the Border Patrol agents back from going inside.

It's true, but it was the barber, borrowing the BPs extra long arm.  Think about that....a  barber went in hot while the cops harassed parents and delayed response.

That school should have been awash with armed officers with the singular mission to neutralize the shooter in as expedient and violent method as necessary.

Every officer who stood around "securing the perimeter" provided overwatch for Ramos.

How many of the officers had a shotgun or patrol rifle at their disposal?
How many had body armor?

These are the people who are entrusted to keep our communities safe yet they chose to enable that psycho to execute kindergartners in cold fucking blood. All the while handcuffing and tazing parents. In a just world, every single one would feel the moral obligation to go home and paint the ceiling red with an HST. Each one of them is personally responsible for each and every one of those kids who was shot or bled out after they arrived.

I guarantee if those cops would have turned over their weapons to the parents they were so eager or detain, Ramos would have been put down a hell of a lot sooner and the Uvalde cops could have stood outside and pissed their pants like the cowards they are.

If someone is just a coward, they won't get in the way of others as they flee or fail to act.

When one does not act and gets in the way of others who would, person is an accomplice.

I disagree with the first part. Someone who is a coward and knows it (even if only subconsciously) will certainly prevent others from doing what they will not in order to prevent their cowardice from being shown.

Shot's were fired for 12 minutes. There were 12 minutes of warning. Maybe in those 12 minutes someone could have closed the door.

There was not.

11:27 a.m.: Video shows that an exterior door to Ross Elementary School that gunman Salvador Ramos entered was propped open by a teacher.

11:28 a.m: Ramos crashes a vehicle near the school into a ditch, gets out and begins firing upon two people who came outside to see the crash near a funeral home. Civilians are not struck by gunfire. The teacher runs to a room to get a phone, returns to the door, and the door remains open.

11:30 a.m.: The first 911 call is made to Uvalde police reporting a car crash and a man with a gun outside the school.

11:30 a.m.: The US Marshals Service says it received a call from a Uvalde police officer requesting assistance.  

11:31 a.m.: The shooting suspect reaches the last row of cars in the school parking lot and shooting begins outside of the school. Patrol vehicles reach the funeral home, and a patrol car drives by shooter, who is hunkered down by another vehicle.

11:32 a.m.: The suspect fires at the school.

11:33 a.m.: The suspect enters the school and begins shooting into a classroom. He shot more than 100 rounds.

I am angry that there are those in my profession who would even consider treating an active shooter like a barricaded subject. That goes against current training and best practices for the last 20 years. The fact the guy was the Chief of Police for the school district makes me even angrier.

I know there are cops who aren’t cut out for direct action but I cannot believe that an entire local police department would be full of them. The fact they held up the BP guys is mind blowing. Or that there wasn’t someone willing to disobey the IC when it was the right thing to do. What are they going to do, fire you for going to work and solving the problem?

Every situation is unique and this one certainly is but that’s why active shooter training is so simple - no matter what you go until the suspect is dead or in custody. A school full of kids with an armed criminal in it is an active shooter until it’s resolved.

Where were all the LARPers with their armor, suppressors, and tourniquets? You know, the ones that prepare for shtf because cops aren't there when you need them? The ones that say "this heah stuff don't nevah happen heah in da souf - we won't tolerate it. They skeered".

In Texas of all places. Does nobody own a gun in Texas?!?

I understand the law pissing around while people died is unacceptable but where are all the people with EDC bags full of garbage they'll never use?!?

"Some day someone is going to do something really bad - then it's go time" but children killed over the course of an hour or so apparently isn't one of them. Maybe they were too busy with their happy thoughts convincing themselves that the present is so much better than the past.

One of the children could have been saved, they were still alive but lay untreated for over an hour while law enforcement twiddled their thumbs and arrested the parents trying to do something. They died at the hospital. She could have been saved if she got prompt medical treatment.

An active shooter in a school full of children is the LAST POSSIBLE FUCKING PLACE that activating a NIMS framework is appropriate.

Instead of showing up and activating an "incident command", that "incident commander" should have gotten DIRECTLY INTO THE NEXT STACK attempting to breach and kill the fucking shooter.  Rinse and repeat as necessary!

That was the BORTAC officer.  He drove 40 miles, grabbed a shield and a couple guys and said "fuck this shit, we're going right now!"

The other guy, the guy who was getting a hair cut and borrowed the shotgun - he grabbed a couple other folks, breached the perimeter somewhere else, and started clearing classrooms and evacuating kids and teachers.  While he was doing that, the BORTAC guy showed up and nutted up where the gunman was holed up.  

Meanwhile, the rest of local PD, Sheriff's Deputies, and DPS SWAT were apparently assigning sectors of responsibility, defining the chain of command, and setting up a media rep and FEMA coolers of ice and soft drinks.....

Where is John in Austin to defend this shit and bag on the parents for disobeying the cops?  Oh, that's right, I've had him on ignore for almost A DECADE..........

From a Breitbart article:
Multiple law enforcement sources revealed to Breitbart Texas that part of the delay in stopping the barricaded elementary school shooter hinged on a deadly mix of the shooter’s defensive tactics and the lack of needed tactical gear. Specifically, officers lacked the ballistic shield needed to enter the classroom with the barricaded shooter. Attempting to breach the door without a ballistic shield would have resulted in certain death for the officers and provides the shooter with the officers’ weapons and ammunition. There is also the possibility that the shooter could have taken communications gear off of the officers’ bodies, thereby giving the shooter the ability to listen in real time on police response plans.

That's normal shit that happens all the time. It was basically 1 in a million that it led to the shooter being able to get in the building. Horrible, awful, and the teacher will have to live with it forever, but nowhere nears as inexcusable as the cops setting up a perimeter to allow the shooter to kill at will, and refusing to let anyone else go in.

Who would do that, teachers? They have a tough job, they have to spend their own money on school supplies, and grade papers after hours. They're underpaid, and only fuck the kids sometimes.

They're heroes, and can't be expected to use common sense, like shutting a fucking door with 10 minute warning.
