Ted Cruz, with little to no respect due to you, kiss every family's ass of the victims who were murdered.

Can the NRA just be sued to oblivion for perpetuating this utter bullshit?

I mean, this sounds more like this town failed than anything. If it had a full police force, a swat team and a school presence on campus, they majorly failed their town, their citizens and their kids. Having cops that aren’t willing to do their job is basically like having no cops at and the fact they were at the door and didn’t go in is a complete indictment on their failure as cops and more importantly men. They definitely could have saved so many lived if they all weren’t complete and utter cowards and failures.

The system keeps failing us. How many stories are there where the feds were aware of an active shooter months in advance…

AND DIDN'T DO SHIT! Appalling.

I mean, this specific shooting should be outright proof that giving school security guards just doesn't work in practice, because people are fucking cowards.

That’s where I disagree. You need to vet people that will actually do their jobs. There are plenty of police officers that actually put their life on the line in the name of duty. This town just had a bunch of worthless piles of garbage, apparently.

It’s so unbelievably unfortunate and such a disaster for public moral and trust like you said.

It’s one thing to be human shit and not jump in front of a bullet to stop adults in a shooting, but if you can’t find your balls to save kids, take the badge off.

Yeah and i mean its part of the job and social contract that binds us. How can a community be expected to respect the authority of an institution that refused to protect them when they needed them the most

Feel so bad for all those kids who died, those kids who saw classmates die, the families who have to bury the damn kids, all because these cops didn’t wanna fucking grow a set. Just ridiculous. Fucking ridiculous.

The fucking gall of this motherfucker.


I'm no Abbot fan but this was the day after I believe and since the other details have came out, he's slammed the police department for their response and also for basically straight up lying about the timeline of events before this press conference so yeah it aged poorly but he's also changed his opinion with new info which is a fairly tough ask for a politician usually even if this time was to save his own skin

The reports of the kids calling 911 asking for cops to be sent when they were busy trying to crowd control worried parents instead of saving them....don't see how anyone can excuse it but of course the usual loonies are already trying. This dude at work was boasting about whatever "unbiased" podcast he listens to that's so much better than regular news and he was under the impression that the school didn't even have cops, not sure if he ever accepted there were any actually there or not but it was getting pretty heated in the break room. He was trying to tell us the border patrol guy that eventually killed the guy was the first person on site bro
