Uvalde Police Screw-up By The Numbers

Not a single Uvalde cop will face any reckoning over what happened. Well the schools' chief of police will probably lose his job, and that is all that will happen. Uvalde police could've stopped shooter 3 minutes after incident began | Marca

Three minutes after the killer entered the Uvalde elementary school, where he shot 19 students and two teachers on May 24, there were already enough armed police officers on the scene to stop him, according to [Colonel Steve McCraw,] the Texas Department of Public Safety's director.

They had enough people. The door was unlocked. But police are not charged with saving you, they are not even charged with saving children. They can't be held accountable for not saving anyone. They can't be held accountable for doing stupid sh*t. They can, in VERY rare circumstances, be held accountable for violating some civil right, but the circumstances are very limited.

Uvalde School District Police Chief Pete Arredondo, according to McCraw, "decided to put the officers' lives before the lives of the children."

You're either cop, or you're little people, and those kids were not cops. Not being cops, they didn't matter. Which is one of the reasons that I believe the chief of police was not interested in protecting those kids, because it meant officers would be in danger.

Remind me where it was determined that the phrase, "I was only following orders," lost its meaning. Of course the difference between the Uvalde Police Department and war criminals from WWII is that the cops won't face any court. Except for the court of public opinion.

Here is the photo of the biggest losers in Uvalde, Texas, also known as the Uvalde Police Department SWAT team. How much did the people spend on those uniforms, and rifles, and the photographer to take this lovely photo? That schools' chief of police is not the only person who should lose his job.
