Being in the military, we not only have a duty to follow lawful orders but we also have the duty to not follow orders that are unsound or orders that would get numerous people or other service members killed. Do officers not have the same abilities? Not one officer decided to go above the call of duty and do what was RIGHT. That’s what disgusts me.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 That's what I'm saying!!!
Been saying that since first “rumors” of what happened here. MANY medals have been given AFTER disobeying orders for heroic purposes. There was ZERO heroism from the first police on this scene.
Do you agree in deploying armed national guards at every school??? Ive said that many times yet people disagree. Would like a military person's opinion on that
That's military and police officers gets sue all the time for wrong move. I probably wait for supervisor's approval first.
@@danielcoronado6483 as a vet, i can tell you it has happened in the military. read up on the Mỹ Lai massacre and see what happen to the good guy.
I didn’t know about the teacher that got shot twice and survived. She’s a hero, I want to hear more about her.
@S D What did you smoke before writing this?
@S D the f are you talking about. Really get some help and stop with the nonsense
It's from when he was shooting through the windows from the outside.
@S D we are animals but we’re also smarter than every other animal. We don’t naturally have the desire to kill people we think are inferior. We do however naturally have the desire to work together and use our minds to advance civilization. Evolution is real and proven.
@S D wtf is this comment.
"The child is in a room, full of victims." That sentence infuriates me more than anything I have heard in a long time. You can even hear in the dispatchers voice that she cannot believe that no one is inside the building. She has to repeat the phrase "full of victims" to bring light to the fact that they need to make entry into the school.
What infuriates me is... citizens have been knowing about these active shooters entering our schools and killing our children for years. YEARS! Yet nobody is doing anything to stop shootings. If you ask me, all I see is a bunch of perpetrating, citizens, pretending to be angry and demanding answers. Well answer me this.... what have you done to protect the children? How have you helped to keep our children safe? I'll tell you what... NOTHING!!! just a bunch of complaining about what the police did or didn't do, pointing fingers and blaming everyone else. You could have been attending city meetings, instead of collecting all your stimulus checks. Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country JFK
“I left my baby at that school. I’m her mom she can’t make her decisions who else is there to blame.” I’m so so sorry
That mother blaming herself, it’s heart wrenching. How can she ever be able to not blame herself, it’s not her fault, I hope she can see that one day.
I know I just started sobbing when she said who else is there to blame…):
@Sim0Ma f I p u s s y go back to Europe
@Sim0Ma you racist coward
I assumed the mother regretted leaving her daughter at school after the awards ceremony. Several families signed their kids out right before this shooting. It sounds like her daughter chose to stay the whole day. And the mother feels it's her fault because she allowed her daughter to make her own decision to stay.
@Sim0Ma your hateful post speaks volumes as to your intellect, or lack there of, I can only surmise the hatred in your heart is only surpassed by your ignorance. Bully. What comes from your mouth is most likely from your dark heart. You have no respect, or command sense for that matter. Disgusting!!
Most of the time police officers spent all day seating in their cars while getting a check and when something shows up this happens no excuse
@ Tim and don’t forget the millions of donuts they eat up!!!
@@foryahforeveryahudah7866 so only cops eat donuts? I cant believe cops keep all donut shops in the country in buisness

@B Flores that right there!!
@B Flores Lmao 🤣
I think the parents who wanted to go into the school and confront the shooter, but instead were treated as criminals and handcuffed, deserve massive financial compensation. The Second Amendment gives an adult a constitutional right to defend the life of their child or another human being being faced with death like this.
This is the us of a
In reality though at any situation they won’t let people go in because it’s to dangerous and would have been killed as well! It’s not a new thing that people are pushed back from a scene when it’s dangerous
Well it's obvious you have to take matters into your own hands these cops fucking suck they sat there and allowed those kids to be massacred they can never be forgiven at that point they threw away all it meant to protect and serve and if you try to stop me in a situation like this you can join the shooter in body bag
No as an armed parent of three ..I would have put that fucker down period ..evert father should be experienced marksman
.its just part of being the dad of the family ..point blank the end motherfuckers..I want to die trying to save my child then let me be I am free n American n have rights to life n liberty...
Exactly! Damn right
My heart is so sore for these kids.. teachers and the parents 😭😭
I can't imagine how disgusting it will be for those full grown cowards to put their uniform, badge and gun on everyday knowing that they didn't do their ONE job. Nothing matters after they allowed those innocent children to die. Shame!
Doubt they're even phased. More mad that they couldn't shoot all those citizens.
Oh... well you should know, it's the same way you put your disgusting clothes on...one leg at a time. You should know this, because it takes a coward to know a coward!! You have done nothing for your communities or schools to prevent these evil attacks. You sit around on your phone while children are dying, yet you criticize and point fingers. Shame on you for doing less to save those poor children and doing more to collect your stimulus check.
Texas failed bigly.
You are the coward
I can imagine that they'll have to find jobs somewhere else. Uvalde is small enough that most of their citizens can probably recognize most everyone on the police force there. I can see some mother or grandfather getting pulled over for a minor traffic violation and giving the officer hell. We've run cops and city managers out of our town before for far less.
The story keeps changing each day, depending who you listen to. This needs a Big external investigation.
As justice to the victims.
"under review by the justice department" IS FAKE NEWS !!!!!
listen to me
they already sent COPS (the organization not any police) to make changes
this means they didn't send the FBI in meaning they're NOT pressing charges on anyone!!!!!!!! this is not old news !!! the media just doesn't want you to know this !!!!!
That’s just the media stirring the pot to keep people watching their 💩 show!
A big external investigation by other alphabet government entities? They are all incompetent.
Bunch of cowards. That’s all there is to it.
Everyday different story
I work with a lot of retired veterans, and they all agreed that there wouldn't have been a minute wasted to get in there and take down the active threat to protect civilians especially children. Regardless of an order especially if an order wasn't sound or coming from someone outside of an ongoing event.
100%... some people are heroes, some are cowards...
That was a criminal order is what that was. No agency in the US today trains this way as far as I am aware of. You are trained to make entry and confront the shooter alone/with one other officer. This was a lack of training plain and simple. The fact that none of them reacted at all to the situation is pretty telling.
That’s the difference between a pig and a veteran! Pigs just produce revenue by abusing the weak and poor for the benefit of the corrupt courts and the prison economy
It’s unbelievable that Arredondo, who was in charge of the scene, was sworn in as a city supervisor in secret after refusing to cooperate with investigations.
The cops’ decision is unforgivable.
The parents' decision to bring children into a world where pain, torture, and death is inevitable without having their children's consent in order to feel good about themselves is UNFORGIVABLE.

@@TurfToken2222 get therapy, or just stay off the internet, Jesus Christ bless your pathetic soul.
Just look at how well armed and armored those 19 officers are.. such a shame that they had to wait for the so called "good guy with a gun" to show up before they could unlock the door and confront the gunman,

They did not realize they could enter through a window…
Yea, 19 good guy officers with guns and it didn't help, so much for the single open carry guy on the street.
Uhhhh how many more would have died if a good guy didn’t show up with a gun??
@@KMT15 Isn't that what happened?
The teacher who was able to lock the door before the shooter got inside and took 2 shots herself and somehow survived needs to be regarded as a HERO! She saved the lives of all those children in her classroom and was a lot braver than those cowards in the hallways wearing the badges
Not taking anything away from her actions, but she was already there and locked the door to keep the guy out. You're saying that's braver than the officers were would've had to bash their way through a door into a hail of gunfire. The two situations are almost polar opposites. I can completely understand the police not wanting to do that. That guy could stack the officers up in a doorway, they don't get in, and he's still alive and shooting.
@@Michael-cf9cj the shooter had a semi auto and was one guy against 19+ officers. They could have came from the door and the windows. But they did NOTHING! A federal agent had to go in there on his own because the police did nothing. Also they are all trained for situations like this but the teacher is just a teacher. she is WAY braver because she actually did something and saved lives.
@@Casf1914 She acted to save her own life and the lives of the kids in her class. She had no practical choice but to act as she did. That's not bravery. It's a lack of options. Bravery requires acting in a risky way when their are other, less risky options.
Now, I read a bit ago that the officers outside had ballistic shields. That changes things a bit (not entirely) because the first officer through the door could have a big frickin' impenetrable shield to block incoming rounds while they survey the room, pick him out, and move to engage him. This makes it more and more likely there was a genuine misunderstanding of what the situation had turned into and not mere cowardice.
@@Michael-cf9cj the cops stood outside and did nothing while they should have been able to hear the gunfire and screams of the dying children. They were literally in the hallway outside the door. Also MULTIPLE children called 911 multiple times in the room asking for help and they did NOTHING!!!! Why are you defending the cops so much?! The teacher could have easily frozen up and did nothing and her and all her children could have been killed. But she took action and put herself at risk to save the children. That takes bravery dude. Don’t know why you are so determined to take away from her and defend the police who could have done something but didn’t .
@@Casf1914 I'm not taking away anything from her actions, but I'm also trying to avoid giving her any accolades she doesn't deserve. Again, bravery requires some other choice in which she would be safe(r) and she chooses not to do it. The smartest thing she could've done was lock that door. I'm not suggesting there was no bravery involved in her actions, but it was also the smart and practical thing to do.
And if the officers were literally right outside the door, but the door was barricaded and the guy was stuck in the room. It certainly sounds like the situation had changed from an active shooter to a standoff with hostages. Should they have gone in? 20/20 hindsight says yes, but the decision to wait likely saved the lives of some of those officers and wouldn't necessarily save the life of even one child. But we'll never know.
They should hold accountable every police officer and the chief that gave the order to stand down and did not go in
Shame on all those police officers
"under review by the justice department" IS FAKE NEWS !!!!!

Then don’t wear the badge
Shame on all the protesters trying to get them defunded
@@outlandishworld6183 key word: trying
even with all their funds and gear; nothing was done.
It is so devastating to hear about the child calling 911 from inside the classroom. She was still alive. They had more than enough time to get in there and rescue her and all of the other kids who were still alive at the point. Why the heck did they just stand outside and wait while he killed more people???
Because they are cowards. Absolute cowards.
the police chief is a coward. should be hanged
Bunch of cowards dressed up like gi joe
Coward cops period...
because they are mexican children
“To protect and to serve” shouldn’t be on their cop cars anymore, disgusting.
Dats right !!!
COPS in the US aren't obliged to protect, nor serve.
Their only role is to enforce the law.
If the guy has 20 round magazine and starts shooting, the US cop can chill until the shooter kills everyone, runs out of ammo and then go arrest him with no danger to him.
I used to respect the US.

@@midori6756 lol you must be trippin
Wow! Actual footage of all those Texas cops running away from the shooter and leaving the kids to fend for themselves for almost an hour and a half! I knew someone must have captured it.
This makes no sense. Even if he thought they were no longer dealing with an active shooter, you still need to get in that classroom to help the injured. Was he ok with allowing children to bleed out if it had transitioned to a barricade situation? I just feel so bad for those kids wondering why no one was coming in to help them.
and now we will get coroner reports about these poor kids that bled out and “had” a chance if there was ANY response. 😞
Yes. Nothing has changed since Colombine when they allowed a heroic teacher who saved the lives of his students to bleed out slowly over hours.
Cops are useless. Defund them and give their funding to education and public health.
"We Are Stronger"
A Poem by Steven F Gooden
We're never as strong, as we are until we have to be. Never Do as much, unless the need we see. Only give our best, when we fail at mediocrity. We Love rather than hate when we admit we're one humanity. We always give more, when compassion moves our heart with unbridled generosity. We Become more of our potential when we are made to see, that clearly our minds can believe in unfathomable possibilities, while seizing every opportunity, here in lies one's destiny. More than our scars, higher than our stars, for in our flaws are what defines our features, they're uniquely ours, as human creatures.
We can run faster than on our slowest day. Reason better, and thinking it through all the way, regardless which direction our emotions may sway. We can find our voice when speechless, our strong words with meekness and our Courage in weakness. Always patience not quickness. Silence for peace than loudness, quietness of fear, not hopeless, for time and effort are equally unbiased. We are more than the stories we're told, we're the one's we write, each page unfold. We are the sum of our Lies and truth, fantasy, fiction, faith, and myths, no matter how uncouth. These are what shape us, our lives lived is the proof. We can be more right than wrong. More just than judge. More godlike than unlike. Reflecting Sunlight in our darkest night.
Providing refuge. Never more alive until we die within and begin again. A Human Ark Divine in our human spark.

@@derekwatson8211 isn't just what you do but what you don't do. Not just what you did but how you did it. Not just what you said but how you said it. Love is so simple yet the simple make it so hard. Love Is full of knowledge yet even the smart don't get it. Love doesn't cost a fortune yet fortunes are spent trying to gain it. Love does demand of you yet you are not willing to sacrifice for it. Those who only seek what love can give and do for them, do nothing for love and others and in such selfish pursuit, in turn rob themselves of love's best gift. Make this year the year you seek to sow love and not just reap it. Be love and not just think it. Do love and not just say it. Talk love and just don't fake it. Seek love and just don't chase it. Embrace it but don't enslave it, share it but don't dare boast in it. Enjoy it but don't abuse it. Free it and watch it come back. Invest in it and watch it pay back. Wash your life in it, light your darkness with it, eat your food with it conduct your business with it and above all else Serve God in it.

The national anthem says “Home of The Brave” those kids didn’t see that. Those parents didn’t see that. The police was clearly scared and it’s been exposed. But go in for the kids though, those kids didn’t get to experience life. Man my condolences goes out to all the families 🙏🏾💐😓🕊💔
I live in Texas, and that chief & his officers should be ban from ever being able to work in law enforcement again. Absolutely a disgrace to the entire state & country.
Same with Ted Cruz
My question is, why is there a need for a 6 member school district police force? Not only a waste of money but I see a lack of training also. Why would they not let the larger city or county departments handle law enforcement for the schools. I see a high paid police chief that is not needed.
If we are on our own, and the duty officer at the school either can't or won't help, shouldn't teachers be trained in firearms use and be given the license to do so? At least some adult with a conscience and a sense of obligation could help.
Legislators who refuse to tackle this are no different than the police officers who stood outside the classroom while children died.

Big tough internet bad azz
I won’t call them cowards, I can see why they held back. Though, they should have confirm. From, what I understand it seems like a hostile take over. The kid enter a classroom, make a kid call 911 and tell them that he is in. Possible hostage situation, any moves and maybe more will be dead. Though, they were slow but then again. In a shooting, you can’t make sudden decisions. That will put the gun at risk, more guns on target means faster the take down. Though again, information is still coming out so we’ll see how is this played out.
@@czarcastic1458 tougher than those cops
Cops ARE COWARDS and mostly sad excuses of human beings! The truth is finally coming out!!!
Tell them how it is pussys is what they were if you can’t put your life on the line for the people don’t no need to wear that badge to protect and serve is what you signed up for!
These cops who refused to act and who were too afraid to charge at the windows where the gunman was shooting at them from are nothing but complete cowards
I'm a dad and I have zero training on how to deal with any of this, but I can say with 1000% certainly if I was there I would've have thought twice about going in and trying to take this guy out......not trying to be a hero I'm just reasonably sure any parent would do that to save a kid.....its what people just do
I believe that is true and that individually any one of these cops might have also, bit as a group they froze and then followed the wrong orders, which was to do nothing, even when they could still hear shots being fired.
Bull. I used my body to cover my child’s during a direct line of fire with an AR-15. I was scared to death but I did it. I couldn’t let my baby get shot. No way. No how. I’ll take the bullet. Oh well.

Yes... investigate parents and citizens for allowing these gunmen to kill our children. Nothing has been done to protect them from these evil monsters. How many schools need to be shot up before we wake up? We allowed these children to be murdered and now we wanna act surprised and shocked!! For what. This isn't our first rodeo, we are just as responsible as the Uvalde police department, it's our fault the gunman entered the school grounds. If we would have made our schools safe, gunmen wouldn't kill our children. That's what we're up here crying about right? That the police did nothing to save them.

They have the audacity to point their fingers at the Uvalde police, when they themselves have done absolutely nothing to change our laws set in place, or to be more active within their schools and communities.

I wish we could hear more from the father who was there working as a cop, whose daughter died. I realise he might not wish to talk about it, but I think he has a really unique perspective in all of this, and be really interested to hear what he has to say. I think about his experiences in this a lot, as it must have been so difficult for him to follow orders and not charge in, only to discover his daughter had died, and then to now hear how much he and the other children and parents were failed by the decisions of the police chief.
“A first responder unwilling to place the lives of the innocent above their own safety should consider another career field.” A statement clearly overlooked by their own police department
I knew they didn't do right the first day when they made the speech about how the officers did what needed to be done.

so now do you believe us black folk

We should interview them
Ask them about the dead friends they witnessed
That’s what trauma does
@Randy it was an off duty bp agent that actually engaged and took down the shooter. The police ran as soon as they were shot iirc
The entire police force in Uvalde should be fired and replaced. My heart breaks for these families. My sincere condolences to the families and the community. May God comfort you all.
Some of these policemen look like they're half heartedly running towards the school or as if they're so out of shape they can barely run, but if the bosses gave them orders to just wait around, then they just surrounded the school and nothing more. It defies logic that they just let the 2 teachers/19 children die after a long time/almost one hour of wasted time
Keep the heat on these incompetent officials. Don’t let these children die in vain. Rest in paradise. Praying for their family members. May God cover them with peace and grave. 💔🙏🏽🕊

Your god obviously does not care about children or he would not have allowed this to happen in the first place. I’m sorry to break that to you. It took me years and a lot of heartache to learn the truth about “god.”
I don't see how you could stand outside a children elementary school with kids calling for help, be armed, and not take action. The mother at the beginning, may God help her find healing. May her family bring her deep comfort.
Good guy with a gun was missing
i read that a cop outside there door yelled ,if you need help in there yell help,little girl yelled yes help and the shooter shot her dead,and when the shooter was shooting cops were able to pin point where he was because that child yelled help,imagine that? m f
It's very simply, although very sad indeed.
Most of the cops do the job because of the authority and prestige it gives them.
It gives them power and power is a drug when abused this way.
Weren't there..also windows to the classroom the police could have neutralized the shooter through? A classroom without windows would be violation of fire code? Also where is this classroom door or one similar preferably that the officers stared at for 40 minutes waiting for the key? Maybe locals there in Texas can fact find to help answer some questions...3:29
Wow, I see criminal negligence being filed against the ones that failed to serve and protect. I’m quite certain they’ll be charged. That is beyond wrong decision- 21 lives lost forever.
All officers at the school should be fired immediately and lose their pensions
that is just the saddest moment of my entire life just to see those officers were outside just waiting for when the active shooter is out of ammunitions so they could get in. These cops are pure cowards. they should be ashamed for life

I live in Indonesia, thousand miles away from USA. I first learned the news from watching a snippet news on TH-cam. I saw that so many officers are surrounded the school, with their gears and guns, ready to break in to the school with their trained tactical skills. At least that's what I believe while watching all those officers walking and running around school. That many officers geared and prepared surrounding the school, I was hoping the miracle could happen. I was hoping the officers could save the day with zero victim, except the gunman. Yet, I was wrong 😭 All that gears, gadgets and guns with that many officers, only to wait the worst to happen? Because the commanding officer not brave enough to let them in to save the students in the classroom? Oh my Dear God..
If we the people have no justice the government should have no peace.
Hold the public officials accountable for those innocent little kids that lost their lives
Their sheer incompetence is mind boggling

It may have been the solution here
@@lambdee7006most school shooters are the students themselves why would you make guns so in range and easily accessible to them?..
Guns in the right hands can save lives - those cops should resign.
"A first responder unwilling to place the lives above their own safety should consider another career field." There should be a mass exudous in all of law enforcement if this is the case.
It wasn't a "wrong decision" it was just cowardice. The police officers 19 of them were having donuts and coffee in the corridor with the plastic guns; must be called out as such.
I believe they were outside.
That’s what you sign up for to put your life on the line for these types of situations smh…rest In Peace Gods angel’s
nope they signed up to bully POC
Nah. They sign up to bully people and have folks worship them
Supreme Court ruled years ago that police have no duty to protect. They’re just an armed collection agency and road pirates.
good guys with gun
Just goes to show these guys are only around do puppet work for the government. Promise cops are not here to protect you
chilling and heartbreaking seeing this a week after it happened so sad
I'm very disappointed in Uvalde law enforcement response. Someone has to answer for this failed response from Law Enforcement and its time to take some responsibility.
They will investigate themselves
Seems like the cops were outside drinking water and not too concerned while these children were inside being slaughtered. COMMON SENSE tells you to rush in and stop this killer. You have a weapon and you are trained. Don't you have any COMMON SENSE AT ALL ?
IKR so aggravating and useless.
I saw tha toot. Hydrating.. 🤬🤬🤬🤬
They had bullet proof vests, these kids had to shield themselves under TABLECLOTH
oh my gosh, I was just thinking about the picture of them casually drinking water outside while children were inside screaming in terror. Just wow...
I've never even touched a gun in my life but given the circumstances, I would have taken a 2 minute crash course to go in there and try to get the job done. I know any loving person would've done it to try to save those kids 😭
Get a head start now. Every mentally stable female in America should take a concealed carry course and be armed at all time. It is the ultimate equalizer for us in a life or death situation. Don't need a man to protect you when you have a glock!
You're absolutely right!
Well they made sure they saved their kids!!
Not in this world if the cops or parents won’t go neither would any of you.before George Floyd the cops would have battled with that demon but after Biden and all the burning and all the defund the police I know cops they just pick up bodies now. And the real issue is all you apologist for these criminals
Unarmed parents we’re trying to go in and save their kids.
Fortunately here in Los Angeles California, the police response takes at most 5 minutes to arrive. My heart is with those who lost a loved one.
The police commander not allowing his team to take out the shooter and potentially save the lives of those children who were wounded is unforgivable.
77 minutes I’m sorry this sounds like cowardice
Support the blue thin line, boot lickers!!!!
We're all sitting here watching this horrifying video. Imagine being a young child inside that building, scared out of your mind, calling 911 for help but help doesn't come quickly. Those are the lucky kids who eventually made it to safety and got to go home to their parents and loved ones. That's awful enough. I can't even wrap my head around being a young child locked in the room with a dangerous lunatic...beyond terrified, calling 911 for help thinking the police would come and save them. But they didn't. They were too busy outside...listening to each bullet fired, each child and teacher picked off one by one. May all of the victims rest peacefully. I am so sorry you were failed so miserably.
Then do something
release the entire video
The officers had no intension of drawing fire away from the students instead they just stood outside 🙄
The police have a knack for covering up things ..
See I knew you were an anti police bot.
@@Pilotpaulie is it not true though?
@@danl7442 it’s not. It’s a rare occasion and you know that.
@@Pilotpaulie it's not as rare as you want it to be.
@@traviswebb3532 it will never be as rare as I would like. True statement.
I wish all the children were "playing dead" and the cops weren't just "playing cops."
May be also teach the cops how to be cops, starting with not to leave a gunman alone with potential victims, or that if a door is locked, you can actually kick it open.
In a situation like that, you must have the same level of speed, aggression, and motivation to match the attacker. Can't believe the original cops didn't have what it took
You are right, it's called violence of action.
The word sickening is overused but this is beyond sickening. What is wrong with our country? Children should be allowed to attend school without being murdered! Whatever it takes to end this madness has to be done-Now! Rest In Peace babies and teachers. Please let’s band together and end this forever before the next time.
What's sad is the more time you spend. The more cowardly and corrupt the explanation of cover up .stems from sheer ineptitude from the governor and political establishment.
You cannot end killing. You do realize this, right? Every other country on Earth has stricter gun laws than the U.S. and they still have similar issues. As long as people live, people will kill each other.
Whatever it takes? What if that included you giving Bruce Jenner an Alabama Hot Pocket?
@@blacksnow5069 Odd that giving Caitlyn Jenner anything was your first thought. I think that says more about you than the rest of us.
@@chrismorgan9153 Yeah and It's pretty damn sad how disingenuous Black Snow is being. It's actually disgusting. Lol.
These cowards feared for their lives , as always
When they do their jobs the whole WORLD has to crawl for a porn star buried in a gold coffin
As did the kids.
Yet with Tamir Rice a 12 year old with a fake gun was shot within 2 seconds of the cops arriving
@@AgentAika001 first of all, Tamir took OFF the orange piece ON the gun so there was NO indication that it WAS fake from a distance. Second, it's a different situation he did NOT barricade himself in the mall with hostages. And the police came w/in 2 seconds because this was BEFOER you all defunded the police, lol. Cry me a damn river.
As they fear from blacks and brown people .
They are truly a Disgrace
Isn’t this just sickening. How does their right to bare arms supersede everyone else’s rights to live safely ? If they are gonna pass gun laws to provide psychotic individuals weapons of mass destruction, you would think that they would have at least provided them with proper handling and usage of those firearms, and some mental health checks and background checks.
All those Officers had their Radios On, except for the Officers right outside the classroom door. They had to have heard this announcement by dispatch.
When the cops heard gun shots they should have gone in
absolutely.
1:13 This guy must pay with all the force of the law for his actions!
They must investigate him upside down!
I heard that he's hiding on his home, and using the police to patrol his house 24x7 ... (paid with our taxes money)
He needs to be accountable!
Chief Arrredondo has not come out of his house and has not made a public statement since Thursday and that is his job. If he couldn't get it right last Tuesday and he refuses to face the public now he needs to resign.
He’s just the fall guy, all cops that were there need to be accountable it’s not like they all weren’t able to hear dispatch.
Situations like this in the past where there was active shooters and hostages taken usually involves a SWAT team heavily trained and even they don't rush right in to blame a couple of town police for not acting quick enough is ludicrous
The school district police chief needs to be fired from all positions he has.
What a coward to make that kind of decision and then the very day it happens to give such a horrible press conference in which he said he wouldn’t be taking questions.
That was the start of the cover up. Ever since then he hasn’t showed his face. Coward
Fired? No, he needs to go to jail. If someone’s lapse of judgement when driving a car results in a death it’s called manslaughter. This is no different. His mistake cost some lives to be lost and he should pay for that.
@@duchessdelarue5983 of course he needs to be locked up, but if that even happens, that whole process will take years to play out in the courts.
But firing him immediately is an easier option, plus given that before this incident there was elections that have him now ready to join city council, every thing should be done for that to never happen.
@@ChillRichard I agree. Fire him and then put him on trial for manslaughter. I hope he doesn’t get off easy. He needs to pay for this. Makes me so furious.
@@duchessdelarue5983 it’s makes even angrier now that reports are he’s no longer cooperating with the investigation.
To not have the decency to even corporate with investigators after you let children die is just so bad.
I’ve never seen a group of cowards to incompetent and worthless in all my life! They have no problem promptly gunning unarmed ppl down though.
POOR REPORTING HERE! I don’t see cops pulling kids from windows; I see desperate kids jumping from danger that the cops refuse to face.
YES! Kids started to jump out, THEN some cops (or whatever in "bulletproof" vests) see them and THEN scoop them further out.
Any government employee who stood down or ordered the stand down while kids were murdered NEED PRISON TIME.
Police Chief: “Guys, there is an active shooter still on campus, but the children are no longer in danger.”
Show the faces of the officers who didn’t serve!
What about the teacher who left the school door unlocked and propped open and allowed the shooter to get into the the school and was the main culprit for all of this. Show her face.
Looking more and more like a new world order hit job.
@@Adam-om9hu the main culprit was the shooter and the door being open wouldn’t have mattered if the police acted in the 12 minutes between the shooter’s car accident and actually entering the school. 12 minutes elapsed and the police station is 1 mile away…
@@WorldwideWyatt if the door wasnt open than the shooter would have never made it inside the school your an idiot.
@@Adam-om9hu no one left the door propped open.
Strip the cowards of there badges!!!!
R.I.Peace 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
Just chilling, so so sad 😞 for everyone. Poor children & families.
i am sick over this.. this wasnt local to me and i dont personally know any of the victims or their families but i have cried for them every day since it happened... i continue to pray and ask my understanding of god to give me some of their pain
I'm crying right now. Its so heartbreaking what they went through and how it could've been less tragic if the adults (not referring to the teachers- bless their soul) who are suppose to protect these children didn't..smh..
"under review by the justice department" IS FAKE NEWS !!!!!
listen to me
they already sent COPS (the organization not any police) to make changes
this means they didn't send the FBI in meaning they're NOT pressing charges on anyone!!!!!!!! this is not old news !!! the media just doesn't want you to know this !!!!!
Oh bless your heart still believing in a God
"We Are Stronger"
A Poem by Steven F Gooden
We're never as strong, as we are until we have to be. Never Do as much, unless the need we see. Only give our best, when we fail at mediocrity. We Love rather than hate when we admit we're one humanity. We always give more, when compassion moves our heart with unbridled generosity. We Become more of our potential when we are made to see, that clearly our minds can believe in unfathomable possibilities, while seizing every opportunity, here in lies one's destiny. More than our scars, higher than our stars, for in our flaws are what defines our features, they're uniquely ours, as human creatures.
We can run faster than on our slowest day. Reason better, and thinking it through all the way, regardless which direction our emotions may sway. We can find our voice when speechless, our strong words with meekness and our Courage in weakness. Always patience not quickness. Silence for peace than loudness, quietness of fear, not hopeless, for time and effort are equally unbiased. We are more than the stories we're told, we're the one's we write, each page unfold. We are the sum of our Lies and truth, fantasy, fiction, faith, and myths, no matter how uncouth. These are what shape us, our lives lived is the proof. We can be more right than wrong. More just than judge. More godlike than unlike. Reflecting Sunlight in our darkest night.
Providing refuge. Never more alive until we die within and begin again. A Human Ark Divine in our human spark.

What are you talking about? I prayed for this massacre and I continue to pray for more and they keep happening. God is answering my prayers! You cannot take my prayers away!
A lot of these gun carrying people in texas always like to act so tough but didn’t do jack chit to help. Just let the guy take his sweet time … cowards
Stole the words out of my mouth. All that talk about “don’t mess with us we have guns” just to cower in fear and allowing children to get murdered.
The police on scenes main job was to prevent anyone going in there to help save those kids including their parents whom they tased pepper sprayed and detained in order to keep them out of the school.. get your facts straight. What were the good people with guns supposed to do? Draw down on the cops and order them to let them go into the school to save those kids? Knowing how The thin Blue Line reacts "troublemakers" they probably would have shot the parents.
All those democrats that say they are rambo didnt barge in there either
@@Adam-om9hu parents bearing arms tried to get in but the pigs stopped them
@@Adam-om9hu why do people always bring politics into this? Wtf is wrong with you people.
The school district police chief told them not to engage? I’m also hearing that a teacher left the door to the school propped open. I have some major questions about this.
As an LE in the Navy we were trained to eliminate the threat first if there is an active shooter. Your second duty is to evacuate the civilians AFTER the threat has been eliminated, there’s no vice versa.
WHAT RESPONSE.....77 minutes too late. "We don't want to hear, it could have been worse" that's B.S.
I'm noticing that the story keeps changing. All these people who failed at thier job need to suffer consequences! Its disgusting when you can't leave your child in school and them not be safe!
What wonder what the es use this time from those bøøtlicker.
The school is just as responsible for leaving the door unlocked.
How many times is it going to take for the school should be locked?
Schools need to take responsibility for their actions.
1:51 "A first responder unwilling to place the lives of the innocent above their own safety should consider another career field." Enough said.
Literally what they signed up for.
Negligence at its finest.
Imagine being a parent of one of them in that town and having to see the officers ever.
They all need to be kicked off the force.. they literally just trained active shooter situations less then 3 months prior
40% of the budget of that 14000 town went to police. hilarious
@@jamesnguyen7069 wow.
Crazy how people are talking like we need to get rid of the ar15 style
Lmao okay a whole police force couldn't stop one guy with one. And 60 bullets. Who's gonna come take them from the millions of Americans who own them
Active shooter in progress, but the school is clear? How? You as the commander didn't engaged the shooter,so how is the school is clear? Smh
He wasn’t even there making calls over the phone I bet ! What an idiot
(the police lie to save their ass, they did not care whether it was "clear" or not)
Kinda defeats the argument on why would you need a gun, just call 911
I know people think they are everyday heroes but when the call to action happens, they freeze. I will bet on everything holy that every parent would risk loss of life and limb to save their own child. Brave heroes exist.
A lot of equipment and running around...for no reason. It doesn't matter if you're armed with even a nuclear weapon if you don't have one ounce of bravery.
It's almost like the cops that lied the first day when they said the resource officer engaged the shooter lied again the next day when they said dispatch didn't tell them kids were still alive.
Imagine being the dispatcher, listening, talking on the phone w a kid, hearing gunshots killing students on the other end of the line.
Seems to me a good way to help prevent this (not stop) would be to have curtains installed that would come down if an emergency button was pressed. These curtains would be installed all throughout the facility. Possibly add smoke to the scenario and you make it very difficult to aim at anything.
They just had an active-shooter training two months ago & looking at the documents you’ll find directions that say “first priority is to move in & confront the attacker” and “a SINGLE officer may need to respond until other forces can arrive” and “if one officer is shot, another officer is expected to go on responding solo.” Waiting for back-up was NEVER an option, and all their training went down the drain when it came time to save innocent lives. The incompetence is astronomical.
Pathetic….. they serve the public zero protection and should be eradicated immediately
I disagree.
It's not incompetence, each of those police officers stood high chance of neutralising the shooter with only a minor chance of harm due to their training and experience. They refused to do that.
Inaction in face of a great and intolerable injustice is not a virtue, but a cowardice.
Inaction by these cops is straight up evil by definition.
They are cops because of the power, prestige and the authority it gives them and not because they want to do good.
I used to like US cops until I learned they don't have protecting citizens in their job description.
To the police chief and the cops who did nothing and waited you will not get away with murder
Show the name and face of the guy who was in charge that moment. We need to know. He needs to answer for this
Texas Law enforcement deserves hell for this. Unreal. So many more lives were lost due to their inaction.
What's the condition of the cops reported in the first statement that were "grazed" by bullets, or was that also a lie?
it hit his hat he was fine
It was a lie. The school resource officer wasn’t even on campus. To answer the other comment the officer that was grazed on the head was a cbp officer with BORTEC. They went in to kill the shooter.
@@richg4051 Let's see that hat with his finger through the bullet hole.
This whole tragedy, if nothing else, has proven without doubt the arguement of the only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun to be a MASSIVE LIE.
I mean it was a good guy with a gun that stopped the shooter 🤔
How. It was literally a good guy with a gun that stopped him finally, while the cops just sat there. If anything, it reinforces the statement. Had it not been for that good guy, how many more would of died?
You mean police with a gun
Not a brave good man
@@justinwebb3311 ONLY way. Why not keep the bad guy from getting the gun in the first place? Like every other advance nation in there world seems to have no problem doing.
@@justinwebb3311 bull. No good guys there. All cowards. How many may have been saved if those cowards with guns did their jobs.
And how many more are going to die because of gun nut apologists like you?
