WTF happened to this dude? How does someone slide this far off the rails without anyone noticing? It's like Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs.

Problem is that a lot of red flags we hear about afterwards wouldn't have justified action. I don't know if that is true in this specific case. We can all look back and say clearly something was wrong with him but it wasn't always enough to stop them.

Idk guys this one feels different. I really hope the senators stay strong and not give in to any of the gun control laws right now. I wish someone would tell Steve Kerr to stfu and stick to basketball.

I agree, this one feels a little different but I think holding strong is the wrong answer, I think holding strong is going to get us crucified. We can stand our ground chanting about constitutional rights but I think this makes us seem out of touch. We stonewall against further gun control laws but do so without providing any real systemic alternative solution. We even resist non-gun control ideas.

“ A witness who lived across the street from the elementary school said onlookers begged officers outside the school to do something as gunfire rang out inside the building.”
That is some of the schiff I've been reading about.
That is why I'm angry.

Uvalde shooter enters through an unlocked door.  No resource officer confronts it. 

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/05/26/shock-dps-reveals-uvalde-shooter-entered-thru-unlocked-door-no-school-police-officer/

Instead, police subdue parents who wanted to go in and begging them to do something.

Were they just waiting to write a police report or something?    WTF

Conflicting reports: 

1)  There was an armed resource officer on campus who engaged the shooter before the shooter entered the school causing him to drop a bag.  The resource officer was injured.

2)  There was no resource officer on campus.  The shooter entered the school through an unlocked door and encountered no resistance.


Other reports stated that in that school district there are only 4 resource officers for 8 schools.  50/50 chance of an officer being there that day. 

Next we'll be told David Hogg was on the scene, too.

Supposedly police were claiming it wasn't an active shooter situation anymore,  but rather a barricade/ hostage situation instead, so breaching could have caused more casualties as opposed to negotiators.

Interesting that US marshes were on scene so quickly.
Do they over ride jurisdiction of local/ County police departments?

This is not the first time cops stood outside doing nothing while kids were getting murdered inside.  They do this for 2 reasons. 1. Courts have ruled cops don't need to protect your ass.  2. They were afraid they might get shot.

Yet, soft targets exist.  Maybe they need to put up a GUN FREE ZONE sign in letters at least 18" high.

Fwiw,

Just read an article today, it was indeed "a perfect rifle for everybody" by Daniel defense. And in light of this event, DD pulled out or was no longer invited to the NRA convention this weekend.

Yup, I read both "DD decided not to attend" and "was no longer invited" so idk which is true.

That aint no cheap gun. Seems like he was pro 2a who just snapped. I seem some people out of nowhere just snap and lose their shit. I only watched a few interviews of the neighbors and grandpa talk bout this kid. Seems he was bullied. Didnt know he liked wearing dresses until I saw someone post here. Wasn't the kids who did columbine was also bullied? I don't quite remember.

I'm not at all defending this kid. He shot innocent people who prob had nothing to do with his life and problems. But if he went after his possible bullies and just them.... Then. ... *shrugs*

Yep.  This is it in a nutshell. 

But people will only see the gun.  The gun killed all those people.  And our stupid POTUS even mentioned it when he went on air nationwide to address the incident.

Instead of offering words of healing and trying to keep our nation together, the old buffoon chooses to make the incident political.

He divided the nation just at the critical moment where we all needed words of peace and solidarity.

What an asshat.  Let's Go Brandon.  Forever and ever.  Amen.
