UVALDE, Texas (AP) — An investigation Uvalde city leaders ordered into the Robb Elementary School shooting cleared local police officers of wrongdoing Thursday, despite acknowledging a series of rippling failures during the fumbled response to the 2022 classroom attack that left 19 children and two teachers dead.
Several family members of victims walked out in anger midway though a presentation that portrayed Uvalde Police Department officers of acting swiftly and appropriately, in contrast to scathing and sweeping past reports that faulted police at every level.
“You said they did it in good faith. You call that good faith? They stood there 77 minutes,” said Kimberly Mata-Rubio, whose daughter was among those killed in the attack, after the presentation ended.
Another person in the crowd screamed, “Cowards!”
Jesse Prado, an Austin-based investigator and former police detective who made the report for the Uvalde City Council on Thursday, described several failures by responding local, state and federal officers at the scene that day: communication problems, poor training for live shooter situations, lack of available equipment and delays on breaching the classroom.
“There were problems all day long with communication and lack of it. The officers had no way of knowing what was being planned, what was being said,” Prado said. “If they would have had a ballistic shield, it would have been enough to get them to the door.”
Are you actually doing a “Look at the bright side of a child massacre the police did jack shit about”??? Wtf is wrong with you people why are your brains so broken
I’m sure this is a bit, but it’s a bad bit that doesn’t make much sense.
Nah I don’t think it’s a bit. They said they want to vote for RFK Jr in another thread and that’s equally stupid behavior
Oh, so mental illness.
Forgive them father, for they know not what they do.
But they also vote, father, please make them stop.
That benefits arise from events which seem, at first glance, horrific doesn’t make sense to you?
I can only speak for myself, but the internet.
“Are you actually doing a “Look at the bright side of a child massacre the police did jack shit about”???”
Benefits emerge from even the most dreadful events, just as success yields it’s share of drawbacks. Incidents of mass child murder are hardly exempt from this principle
Jesus fucking christ buddy you are a horrible person
Save yourself some typing; just say conservative.
Salvador Ramos was a true Progressive, unlike celebrity posers in the mold of Greta Thunberg. Most yap about the dangers of overpopulation, yet do very little to rectify this malady. Ramos went out and decreased the number of humans on this planet, rather standing in front of the cameras, yapping about how much he cares
Is it not more horrible for those who’ve experienced an event they find unpleasant to stay locked in a cycle of telling themselves “This is horrible… I can’t bear it!!!”? Nothing but further misery can come from that
