…and the American people are the citizens of Uvalde safe in their homes watching it live on their screens.

Officers arrived three minutes after Ramos entered the school and approached rooms 111 and 112, but they retreated.

Massacre at room 111. Massacre at room 112. Officer called out, "Yell if you need help!" A girl in the adjoining classroom said, "Help." Ramos heard the girl, entered the classroom, and shot her.

Law enforcement approach his classroom from what sounded like the hallway three times, but they did not enter; during one of these occasions, he heard a student from the adjoining classroom 112 saying, "Officer, we're in here. We're in here." As law enforcement had already left, Reyes said Ramos "walked over there, and he shot again."

Reyes later heard law enforcement telling Ramos to come out of the classroom to talk, saying they did not want to hurt anyone. WTF? That's the smartest line you would come up with? That the police don't want to hurt anybody? What's next, police threaten to shoot at hostages if shooter don't give up?

Let me tell you a story!

Great story! I especially loved a US police trainer comments on the Beslan tragedy: 'if I have to kill 20 (7%) hostages to save 300, then that’s what I’ll do.', when in Beslan died 318 (25%) and injured 700 (60%) out of 1200.

Kinda like how they went straight to blaming Mexicans and black people for losing the election.

Immediately scapegoating minorities when they ran a bad campaign. And Biden said to bipartisan applause to Congress when Black Lives Matter was the key talking point "We don't need to defund the police, we need to fund the police!"

The parties of cops and robbers.

A majority of one particular demographic voted for Trump in the past three elections which PoC and I assume anyone reading this is acutely aware of.

White people, and the DNC will never blame them. But any other skin color? "They cost us the election!"

That's pretty much how I've known them both
