My God... it's been a year.... a year of sorrow and misery I never hope to understand. But I stand with you, Uvalde! Been following you all since day one. All of your courage and your strength is what gets me outta bed and face my own day . Probably not saying thing right, but you're ALL in my thoughts . I don't pray to God for strength. I pray to you and those 22 innocent souls and you all have helped me tremendously ❤❤❤ I cannot imagine how you ALL FEEL right now, I'm in tears writing this. Just know, please know... their names WILL NEVER BE FOGOTTEN. I think about them and you all every single day❤
God bless Uvalde and every community struck by gun violence and political violence. May 30th can’t come soon enough. Thank you Amy and Maria for telling us this.
I unfortunately I think we’re going to have to show the bodies. As gruesome as it might be, as horrific as it might be, some people need that to wake up and see what is happening.
I agree, but I'm not sure if that will even be enough. So many think this is fake, they would just think those images are fake, too. I don't know how to fight this.
The only way to shake people out of apathy is with something dramatic. Emmet Till's viewing did indeed spark the civil rights act. Some would argue that doing so might make people more jaded to this type of violence. My counter to that is: Look around. Aren't we already pretty jaded to this?
It’s terrible but I’ve been thinking that for awhile..Yes, we’re traumatized daily with violence in America but people really need to see the results of all of this😢
@@firstladyntrng1170Black folks continue to see and have been seeing results of white hate in America. The problem is these same hateful devils til this very day haven't been met with the same violence in DEFENSE, smh. It makes me sick to my stomach how we as black folks put up with their disgusting and inhumane asses during slavery the same exact way we're just allowing their ignorant and hateful behavior as we speak, smh. Marching, singing songs and praying has gotten us absolutely nowhere with this evil but back around full circle.
This is BS. If they are already okay with kids getting slaughtered pictures aren’t going to do anything except further traumatize survivors and victims families and desensitize some. Just trauma porn for some of you.
Was it ever explained how the shooter was equipped with thousands of dollars worth of new weapons and ammo? He, nor his family, had any sort of money. I guess the weapons also played into the scenario of the cops allowing the shooting to go on, waiting in the school's hallway for over 90 minutes before bursting into that classroom. Once the cops entered the classroom, the perpetrator was dead withing five minutes!!! It makes you think, though, doesn't it!
Kids are more likely to die from drowning in a pool or spa then they are to die in a school shooting. Getting rid of all pools and spas would save more children.
This is not surprising. “Get over it”. Get over the Holocaust. Get over Slavery. Get over the attacks on Asians. I thank God that I went to an all black elementary school - Peres Elementary School in Richmond, California in the early 1960s. We had educated, kind hearted, caring and loving administrators and teachers. Also grateful that the administrators and teachers were strict and fair to all students.
I hope that someone has the courage to publish the photos and the videos of the massacre. The bodies. The disfigured, scattered bodies of those kids. When and if the families agree, obviously. Rational arguments don't work with these folks. Numbers don't count. A coordinated campaign of this type, a shocking display of the horrors that they facilitated, could make a lot of sense where there's none. I'm sorry, but i'm tired of this. It's all so unbelievably evitable.
I used to do that with drunk drivers perfect size is that in the newspaper in the newspaper my English is off announce these drunk driving in newspaper you should do that with the children adults killings if people can only if they agree to the children's cover faces in it but still show the murder victims
And yet, the area which includes Uvalde voted to re-elect Gov. Greg Abbott. The kids need to get their parents to vote to remove gun-crazed politicians.
@@justinp6839 oooo, yeah. I remember the folks who said no matter how they voted Beto kept showing up on their voter card. One woman had to vote 3 times. That’s totally different. Plus there’s been a lot more manipulation of how, where, and when folks can vote since then. I mean honestly, as advanced as the U.S. is, not having the most important day of the year not be a holiday? 🤷🏻♂️ I don’t get that when so many working class people have a hard time getting time off…and if you have kids…
17:00- this award winning journalist thinks AR stands for automatic rifle? And that’s a lie about Uvalde PD’s body armor... they were issued level 4 armor... rated to withstand multiple rounds from an AR. They were just cowards.
I HAVE to say this: THANK YOU Black Americans for paving the way and going before to show others how to fight for justice and civil rights. I am not a Black American but I recognize the MASSIVE debt of gratitude that is OWED to Black Americans for sacrificing their livelihood, and their very lives for civil rights. Because they DID, EVERY immigrant, regardless of color CAN. God bless you people! I will be forever grateful and will pay it forward.
@@cosmicdjinn1743- I said what I said and I meant what I said. Your obvious dislike for this community doesn't negate the fact that they have done a service to this country so kick rocks.
@@SoupBone-bp1qk lmao sorry you don’t like basic crime stats. You should be thanking the Republican Party for fighting for them from the beginning. It was the Republican Party that ended slavery and fought for equal rights for African Americans. Give credit where credit is due.
@@stephanyhdz92 - Was it Blacks destroying, pooping, peeing in the hallowed halls of Congress on Jan 6th? Were they the ones attempting to kill police officers and beat them to death with fire extinguishers and flag poles? Are they the majority of those shooting up schools, malls, churches, synagogues, grocery stores? Are they the ones who the FBI referred to as America's number one domestic terrorists? Are they the ones known to be infiltrating police forces and the military with their hate filled Nazi ideologies per FBI records? Are they the ones whose gangs are among the worst and the most violent in America? Are they the ones who I see in the news teaching in majority minority schools and sleeping with their students? Are they the majority that are fueling the drug epidemic and dying from drugs in America? Do they make up the majority of the criminals stealing from the poor to give to the rich? Are they the criminals fighting to take away a person's bodily autonomy and right to choose? You know what they say about people in glass houses....so keep it moving.
@@Nathan-gn3ls America is no more or less sick than any other society. The Chinese have a long history of genocide for instance. Governments kill 9 innocent people for every intended target for every bomb they drop. Next to Governments, multi nat' pharmaceutical companies are probably the most prolific mass murderers.
It was not an Automatic Rifle. The men that finally went in were facing the same rifle, so what changed. Deer rifles can do the same damage . The AR rifle is a self defense weapon, that is what the shooter was taken out with. All have the same right to self defense against the crazy people who try to harm you.
You want to protect your children.. here is what you do.. you do for the children as the government does for its own employees.. that is, you do not enter into a court house where Judges sit and not be searched on the way in.. and you have armed security at the door.. how many judges do you see being shot to death? NONE while in the court buildings.. take all of the revenue generating police we have out there writing thousands and thousands of tickets and put them as security inside the schools.. and it can be as little as 2 per school.. one door open at the front of the building, the other doors locked, no entrance from the outside whatsoever.. only can be unlocked from the inside which will be for emergencies only with alarms to go off if they are opened.. its really this simple.. and every municipal in every city will be responsible for implementing it in their cities.. by LAW.. schools are basically open from early morning to about 5 or 6 in the evening.. so have either 2-6 hour shifts or 1-12 hour shift.. I would go with the 2-6 hour shifts.. 6am to Noon, and Noon to 6pm.. after which they can head on home.. or you can have one shift from 6am to 2pm, a full 8 hour shift, and then have another 4 hour shift till 6pm.. after which they can go back out on the streets for the other 4 hours.. It does not matter how you run it.. but its meant to keep the kids safe like you would do for a judge..
Let Us Continue To 🙏🏾 PRAY and Ask The Lord For Blessings and Strength to All The Families and Community Of Uvalde ..If We As A People, with consciousness Do Not Understand The Effects From What Happened At ROBB Elementary, We Are LOST..I Remember Uvalde in 1970*** With The Students PROTESTS..It Was Powerful ..I Was In High School in California *** The Central Valley *** Marching With Cesar Chavez and The UNITED FARM WORKERS as A Teenager..with Other Students and Teenagers!! The Connections Are POWERFUL!! Continue Your FIGHT!!! UVALDE STRONG!!💪🦾
It turns out that the reason being given as to why Law Enforcement refused to confront the shooter was that these cowards noticed that they shooter had body armor better than theirs. Did these shameless officers stop to think that the kids and teachers had no protection at all! Of course not. Their life was more important than the kids and teachers. Despicable behavior and selective protection is the only way to describe their actions. How Sad.
But we allow 18 year olds to vote, and die for their country. An AR-15 looks like a military rifle, but it is not an automatic weapon. It's a semi-auto, meaning 1 pull of the trigger = 1 shot.
Hold the parents responsible for raising a crappy kid. Crappy kid insurance policy that must be purchased and kept in place until age 25. If he causes any harm to anyone, compensation is paid, all go to prison. No ones rights are trampled, No 2A Infringed. Problem solved.
@@justinp6839 Jesus said put the weapons away but a lawless people are engaged in pure evil. The 2nd amendment as rationalized today is evidence of an evil people. Jesus calls them living by the gun lawless. No sane ruler would ever let Americans have such access to guns. Open carry is a sign of evil. Along with this evil is the weakest death penalty. No racist should ever have access to weapons.
The second amendment is for citizens to have the same weapons as the military so you are wrong. You are also wrong implying that military style weapons were used in this shooting because they weren't.
@@heatheruntz5315 are you here to denounce white racism? The Second Amendment of the United States Constitution reads: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." this amendment is about a militia. and if it means access to any and all kinds of weapons then the second amendment is indeed more evil than first thought. giving weapons to citizens is a recipe of disaster and at the same time not to have a robust death penalty adds to that. a nation that focuses on rights instead of responsibility is a nation doomed for its disastrous end if the second amendment is about unfettered access to weaponry and not a regulated militia then the founding fathers were not a very smart group they were spelling an end to their own country
Did you say more horrors are coming after the guy plowed thru a bus stop killing 8? I bet not... But you go ahead and keep blaming an object instead of the person
If a country has enemies like Russia or China or Iran or North Korea it is a good idea to have EVERY citizen trained in the safety and use of a firearm no later than 18years old. You are being trained to protect yourself and your children and Your country. Police have NO duty to protect you Castle Rock V Gonzalez and the Supreme court stated if you you are taken hostage by a criminal the police can kill you the hostage in Order to get the suspect. Everyone needs to be trained to protect themselves and country.
Ask the women in Ukraine or Vietnam OR anywhere, domestic or foreign conflicts have incurred and Natural disasters have occurred and females will tell you a firearm helps them survive an animal or human predators. If You think the police and government will protect you think again The USA Supreme court stated they have NO duty to help, Assist or protect females.
Lets see, all courts protect judges, etc in their buildings with armed police! Politicians have armed details but not for our children which has been done on purpose!!! Its all to tale away guns! Imagine leaving the most vulnerable, children to not have the same protection!
Very sad situation. I know about ever worse situation that nobody seems to care about: weekly shootings in Chicago. Many more lives lost in Chicago alone due to democrats refusing to apply law on their preferred criminals. I suggest to start action by demanding that democrats follow the rule of law instead of excusing minorities that kill, loot and pillage.
Great reporting! But these people are so heartless to the innocent blood that is shed. ONLY UNTIL IT HAPPENS TO THEM WILL THEY KNOW AND FEEL THE DEPTH OF PAIN AND THEN WANT TO CHANGE THE SYSTEM!
I bet he was getting prescription medication from big pharma. Nobody in law enforcement has been judged for their inaction that day it seems. Politics, law enforcement and health care seem to be blameless in the usa, gee did I pick the wrong career.
Why so many conflicting stories?.... What happened to the 45 year old shooter held in police custody? As reported by KSAT-12 KENS-5 and most msm network's.....
Here in Europe we still don’t understand why America doesn’t ban guns. We have mentally challenged people here but no one can get guns and therefore no mass shootings and massacres. We feel for Uvalde and all victims there that get no justice or protection from their government.
Who was rhe Cop who had seconds to take out the gunman when he got to the school door. All the kids and teachers should be alive today! A ban on assault weapons, weapons of war has worked before. The only solution.
Not really go look under your kitchen sink if you have really any cleaning sprays you can pretty much make mustard gas and it’s not uncommon for these shooters to use pipe bombs and shit thankfully so non have worked but that’s not gonna be like that forever
I think its a shame that nobody talks about mental health issues that are so obviously at the root of these incidents, not to mention the societal trends and cultural factors at play. There is such a rich discussion to be had here, but materialist culture has sadly given the left tunnel vision. Blaming inanimate objects is akin to hitting an obscene easy button.
@@user-ti3vp9mt3z It was a shotgun that ended the massacre too, so what's your point? BTW, punches and kicks kill more people than anyone with an AR 15. We pass laws against fighting, but guess what......
Every young woman should have training in a firearm in the USA . Many countries make it mandatory that females know how to clean, assemble and fire a gun .
Are you sure of that statistic? Look at the UK statistics where the common police officer bears no firearms. Let police officers start by only bearing firearms in case of response to firearms situations. Then the population would be enclined to follow and not bear firearms too.
@@blackhawk2302 The emphasis is not on problem, it's on solutions be it for the UK or anywhere else (the UK being only one example with their own problems the US may not have). Part of the solution is getting accurate with ones statistics. I might be wrong as well as anyone else with my statement of statistic. I or anyone else saying it doesn't make it so. Always doing ones own due diligence by simply making the effort of double checking ones or others statistics statement before buying into the subintended opinion goes a long way to citizenship responsibility towards voting and preventing tyranny to creep back in. Thank you for your next input.
@@fra2847 That is the dumbest comment on TH-cam. You can't work on solutions when ignoring problems you moron. Guns aren't the problem. Stop blaming an object and actually focus on the problem. Trying to compare the US to the UK is downright stupid.

CHARGE , FIRE AND CONVICT THE ENTIRE POLICE FORCE THAT WAS THERE AND DID NOTHING...THEIR OWN S.O.P. STATES THAT EVEN IF ONLY ONE...OFFICER IS ON SCENE, THAT OFFICER HAS TO ENGAGE THE SHOOTER. ALL THOSE OFFICERS THERE, AND 21 DEAD BEFORE,THEY DID ANYTHING...ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING...THIS IS WHY,THE ONLY TRUE 1ST RESPONDERS FOR THESE KID'S AND SCHOOL STAFF ARE, THOSE THERE ON THE SCENE..." SCHOOL STAFF LIKE THE TEACHERS ". PUT IN PLACE THE "GUARDIAN PROGRAM " THIS PROGRAM WOULD GIVE THE STAFF THE ABILITY TO VOLUNTEER TO BE TRAINED AND BE ARMED, FOR DEFENCE FOR THE SAFETY OF ALL THESE KID'S AND SCHOOL STAFF, ALONG WITH FORDIFYING THE SCHOOL VIA BULLET PROOF DOORS AND WINDOWS EXTERNALLY AND INTERNAL.

NOTHING...IF THEY REALLY WANTED TO PROTECT YOUR KID'S LIKE THEY KEEP SAYING, WHY HAVENT THEY APPROVED THIS YET.WHY DO THE DEMOCRATS LIKE SEN. CHRIS MURPHY KEEP BLOCKING BILLS BY SEN. CRUZ,AGAIN, TO GIVE THE FUNDS TO SCHOOLS FOR THIS REASON, AND SOME RHINOS AND, ANTI GUN GROUPS ALSO ARE AGAINST IT...🤔BECAUSE THE GOAL IS, TO DISARM US...NOT PROTECTING THE KID'S. IF THIS GOVERMENT CAN SEND BILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO THE UKRAINE,PAY FOR A GOLF COURSE FOR SKELATORS (Pelosi)WIFE'S FRIEND'S IN THE MILLIONS, AND KAMALA TRYING TO GIVE BRIBE MONEY TO AFRICAN NATIONS IN THE ABOUNT OF 60 MILLION PER,TO ADOPT THE LGBTQRST1 BULL SHIT, THEY CAN DO THIS FOR THE SAFETY OF OUR KID'S... P.S. National Firearms survey stats, say, there are, 1.67 million people that use firearms for defence yearly. 82% never fire a shot. That's 4445.34 people per day,use a firearm to save a life. The FBI, has it between 1.5 million known & 3 million per year. On average the Anti Gun community says, that 100 (36,5k)-130 (47,450), people die from firearms daily of BUT,they don't tell you that more then half are suicide,and that don't include the 1-2 million that commit or survive suicide by other means and 80%-82% of the rest is Gang on Gang & the rest is crime against citizens, accidental and police shootings. Per the CDC'S Sight, the so called, GUN PANDEMIC/ HEALTH ISSUE,came in at #23 from the top of ways people die in this country with #1 of course being the worse. Now,this doesn't include the 130k that die from Snake bites yearly or the 250k that die from Dr. Negligence yearly or the 600k Abortions of witch 1/4 are done at full term from what I hear. THAT'S (MURDER) 150k full term Babies aborted and NONE of the Mother's or Medical staff charged...so this puts the way people die from Guns, down to 26 on the CDC'S Sight just to mention some other one's and don'tforget covid. So were is this So Called "Gun PANDEMIC/HEALTH issue... To Recape-OVER 35x'S MORE, PER DAY, a firearm is used for defence. 35x'S more.Look @ what they got away with in the last 4 yrs, now Imagine what they will get away with IF, they take our gun's... HISTORY FACTS: Switzerland, issues ALL of it's citizens GUNS and proper training witch gives them the lowest rate of GUN crime of any civilized country in the world, and if you try to use the excuse that they have strict gun regulations, then you have to factor in that we have 36x's more people and GUNS then they do, in an more dence populated cities. If you do the math, SHOOTING death are a very small %. Around 0.012% YEARLY THE Government tells us, taking GUNS, via "Buy Backs", or via shaming and using mass shootings, is for our protection. But history teaches diffrent and here are some examples... 1911-Turkey ESTABLISHED gun control then from 1915-1917, 1.5 million Armenians,unable to protect themselves, were rounded up and exterminated... 1929- Soviet union does the same with GUN control,and 1923-53, about 20 million of it's citizens met the same fate by it's GOVERNMENT... 1935- China does the same to it's citizens from 1948-52 about 20 million political people met their maker thanks to Chinese government. 1938-Germany, well we know this part. From 1939-45, 13 million Jews met their maker. 1956-Cambodia 1975-77 exterminated it's 1 MILLION EDUCATED people. 1964-Guatemala, from 1964-1981 100 THOUSAND Mayan Indians wdrdd exterminated. 1970-Uganda from 1971-79, 300 THOUSAND Christian's, exterminated. And during the 80's-90s, the tutti or tutu WIPE out over 1 million other Africans using Machetes and Ak's that included kid's and babies. A total of 56 million people were rounded up and MURDERED by their GOVERNMENTS in the name of GUN control, and our safety in the 20th CENTURY alone. P.S. 3-4x's more people are killed by other weapons,like knives, and BEATINGS BY HANDS AND feet per year than guns 3-4X'S per year per FBI UCR UNIFORM CRIME REPORT yearly. THE GOVERNMENT, HAS ONLY ONE AGENDA FOLKS, AND THAT IS, TO DISARM US. FOR ALL OF YOU THAT ARE HELPING YOU WILL REGRET THIS IF YOU DON'T WAKE THE FUCK UP...
Remember a teacher propped open a locked door in violation of state law. THAT is the only reason this massacre occurred. Stop lying and start to actually work for a REAL solution.
Thank you Maria! I am glad you have not put this story away in a storage shed! The killer of kids that came from Allen,Tx to El Paso, Tx to hunt for Mexicans! Is still in jail and no sign of a courtj day for him,!
I was in a Fusion Mariachi band in the 70s called LaTinx. Rhymes with stinks. I have to smile everytime I hear latinx used to identify hispanics. I realize its an attempt at inclusion but its not working. My kids use it as an insult.
Instead of whining about gun control, you should be asking why Ramos wasn't questioned or arrested for making threats 2 months before. And also what took the cops so long.
When you want to protect yourself from violence, don't rely on someone else to do it. If your children really matter to you, don't leave their fate in the hands of institutions like the corrupt police and public fool system to provide protection.
You think it’s a Public Fool System,now? Just wait until we see the results of the,unnecessary,book bans and proposed library closings in years to come. Not to mention,the modifications to twist history lessons into our own,reflective,liking in some cases. Even if the kids CAN manage to dodge bullets through twelve grade levels,they’ll still end up with limited knowledge in a world of progressive competition,leaving them at a distinct disadvantage in job markets and on the world stage.
Make one wonder how Mr Reyes in room 111 who was shot in the lung at close range was sitting up in bed 8 days after the event talking with ABC with no sign of trauma. You'd think after 2 hours he would have bled to death.
@@diggorypat66 Statistics show around 450 people each year are killed with rifles and that is rifles in general not just so called "assault rifles". Those same statistics show around 650 people were killed with hands and feet. Rifles in general make up a tiny percentage of murders committed with firearms.
That was a very sad day indeed. Guns are not the problem. It’s the attitude of the ppl. My argument would be ppl own cars that can go 160 to 250 mph yet most speed limits around the U. S. are 55 to 75 mph. Ppl die in car accidents everyday yet there’s no call to ban cars🤔
Listen to all those company names they advertise before getting to the actual discussion, companies that are about to make money because 17 children were shot dead with a military weapon. She then CONTINUES to promote her book and Podcast. Damn, that's fucking brutal. Using murdered children to make money. Out of the respect of those poor little kids I won't be watching any of it and avoiding that woman's name like the plague. How dare you.
That lady did the work ot putting the event into the proper context so poeple can have a fuller understanding of the underpinnings of the situations, notably yhe larger picture of the neglected status of Uvalde residents and their history related to the close location with the mexican border which most of the audience did not know before her telling it that story. Nobody is forced to buy her book which topic seems even is unrelated to the event and only meant as a "author cretential contextual introduction as pulitzer price recipient" and frankly the intention is not to bank on the event empathy of the people rather to produce quality work covering the event in its many lesser known aspects. The fact that she spent time going to the place and recoiling the people testimony and could experience first hand (not just repeating uniform headlines missinformation such as "the new normal" of networks practices) and share their real feelings and tragedy means she made the earnest effort of living through the experience closely, as the prediatrician she shared the testimony of can tell. It's not self or business purpose promotion intended. It's decent sharing of the context and close reality experience of the event relaying to the audience so we can form a more accurate opinion about it than the saldy all too common and poor quality reporting "unpreventable and helpless tragedy narrative" others try to inform our opininons of the matter with.
The people of the Texas "valley" now know what the republicans they voted for think of them. I hope the Hispanic community take their disappointment to the ballot box in the next election. Not one word of condolence from Senator Ted Cruz or Governor Greg Abbott.
Isn’t it obvious we just need better trauma surgeons sooo people don’t have to give up their assault rifles just because a few kids are shot. We have lost our humanity in this country.
@@blackhawk2302 I keep hearing (or reading,in this case) that the weapons used in these mass shootings are not assault rifles. What would the proper term be for referring to an AR 15 or Kel-Tech or whatever specific rifle that was used in myriad events to,allegedly,separate limbs from bodies and bring eternal sleep to these victims? Your knowledge upon the subject would be appreciated and it would be helpful to know the proper reference,just in case I feel like whining about the situation,sometime in the future.
@@myleslong5584 Seems like you're way too emotional to bother to try reading or accept facts. It's blatantly obvious you don't know what an assault rifle is. Go read what 1986 has to do with it and what a true assault rifle is. (Hint: there's 3 prerequisites that define one) FYI- they don't remove limbs. That's more emotional bs. And the Kel Tec 2000 doesn't even fire a rifle round, it's chambered in HANDGUN calibers, most common being a 9mm. That blows your "assault rifle" argument right out of the water. Furthermore, go read the actual stats on firearm homicides. The vast vast vast majority are committed with handguns. Last year reported, 2021, 6500+ murdered with handguns, less than 500 murdered by *ALL rifle types combined. That scary black rifle you're so petrified of is responsible for 1% of firearm homicides. There's more people beaten to death every year than are murdered by *ALL rifle types. Drop the liberal media and go check the FBI website. You fell for a political narrative.
@@blackhawk2302 So,you’re saying it should be referred to as “a semi-automatic sporting/hunting rifle,”? Think it’s easier just to go with specifics,then. Like AR15 or whatever brand/model. Out of curiosity and in your opinion,why do the vast majority of these mass shooters choose to use the AR15 or rifles with similar capabilities? Why not use a semiautomatic pistol or a different style of rifle? Not that we can,actually,get inside the heads of these people…I’m only asking your opinion.
@Andre Seewood Without continuous actions of those movements and others slavery, serfdom, segregation, outright and unapologetic bigotry, mysogyny, colonialism, eugenism, discrimination, genocides, imperialism, technocides and totalitarianism would still rule or rule much more than they still do. All it takes is for the cowards at the top to incentivize enough of the people to serve as their agents against the people for them never to have to work while all other work to serve them. All it took was 15 years (1918-1933) for Germany/Austria/Hungary to degenerate from the leading world culture (Vienna tradition) to the least one (Rommel, Hitler, Goebbels). All because the poeple did not "move". Or more accurately because the people moved against one another in the service of the few at the top who profited hansomely from it as a result.
@fra I agree, but why was the covid restrictions, lockdowns, mask mandates, shutdown of bussiness, mandatory experimental vaccines to keep jobs, old people dying alone, and the list goes on...how was that any different?
Not the ideal solution, but until the politics changes which could take decades, why not provide teachers and school staff or school security agents with AR15 as well as publicly funded training. At least the school killers would think twice before attempting the school shootings and that could suffice in reducing them 10 fold to 1 school shooting per month instead the current statistics of 1 a day. Else the adults are defensless and can do nothing to defend the children under their care. With basic prepardness at least thez could act. Lack of prepardness is always tantamount to lack of prevention of what could be prevented otherwise, if not all the killings themseves at least the high number of them. The teacher in those classroom could have easilz dettered or reduced the number of kids dying by fighting back and at least sacrificing themselves making sure the number of kids dying would be significantly less. Instead they could do nothing simplz because they had no AR15 readily available to defend themselves, to self-defend themselves. And at least with those AR15 and public funding of every school staff memeber to self-defense they can do something in each and every new case of school assault of and can reduce that risk responsibly. Doing nothing instead and hoping for the best is not a solution and quite irresponsible for the kids under thez care while they have the means to self-protection and self=defense available to them. Also, the fear and anguish of school staff memebers going to school everz day wondering if they are to be next is quite toxic athmosphere to teach children. At least with proper self-defense means at their disposal they could feel more in control and ready to address in some way any suc future situation by at least reducing the number of casualities with self-defense actions. Also, since the police officers don't care to act when they are paid to, why not defund them and instead fund the school staff weapons and self-defense training with the police fundings. Since those police officers fear more poverty than AR15, take their funds and pension away as proper incentive and you can be sure their "bravery" and sense of duty will come back to their sense in no time. Else, do the simple thing, take their funds and pension away and reallocate them to schools self=defense programs. The primary question to ask oneself is why are there as many school shootings and how to reduce them, not why the shooters do it. A simple answer to whzy so many is because the shooters know the schools are currently verz easz targets and thez risk literalz nothing bz going to schools with kids to do their deeds. That's the main reason because there are not daily Police stations shootings, because the shooters know they have close to yero odds to do as much damage in police stations. Silmpz because Schools are defensless. A simple answer to how to reduce drastically the numbers and the scope of school shooting is as simple. Provide weapons and public funds previous ly allocated to police stations to schools. It doesn't take rocket science degree to know right of the bat that school shooter would at least be scared to go doint their deeds to schools if they know that from now on they are to be met with much more weapons and trained staff members. Thez would know the odds are stacked against them. Then also, teachers would do a better jobs preventing children potential shooters by addressing the issue and making it a school topic to prevent it early on in school curriculum reducing the underlying problem of not having school programs dealing with the issue with kids early on which would lessen the chances and statistics ultimately of children assaullting schools. For the rest non schildren shooters, trained and self-defense ready school staff member would shift the courage burden to the shschool shooter as they would know it would teake them much more effort and fear attempting their deeds knowing multiple staff members would response with self defense rather than being defensless targets.
This needs to be noticed more and watched and acted upon... my god this breaks my heart all over again!
My God... it's been a year.... a year of sorrow and misery I never hope to understand. But I stand with you, Uvalde! Been following you all since day one.
All of your courage and your strength is what gets me outta bed and face my own day .
Probably not saying thing right, but you're ALL in my thoughts
. I don't pray to God for strength. I pray to you and those 22 innocent souls and you all have helped me tremendously ❤❤❤ I cannot imagine how you ALL FEEL right now, I'm in tears writing this.
Just know, please know... their names WILL NEVER BE FOGOTTEN. I think about them and you all every single day❤

If I were one of the parents trying to go in to stop the shooting I’d take the officers that stopped me from doing so to court, they aided the killer.
Qualified immunity. Police are above the law and usually can't be sued.
Sure did, child called cops multiple times saying people in the classes were shot but still alive. Most bled to death
Those cowards waited 76 minutes to enter the school after everyone was dead
God bless Uvalde and every community struck by gun violence and political violence. May 30th can’t come soon enough. Thank you Amy and Maria for telling us this.
THERE IS NO GOD
I unfortunately I think we’re going to have to show the bodies. As gruesome as it might be, as horrific as it might be, some people need that to wake up and see what is happening.
I agree, but I'm not sure if that will even be enough. So many think this is fake, they would just think those images are fake, too. I don't know how to fight this.
The only way to shake people out of apathy is with something dramatic. Emmet Till's viewing did indeed spark the civil rights act. Some would argue that doing so might make people more jaded to this type of violence. My counter to that is: Look around. Aren't we already pretty jaded to this?
It’s terrible but I’ve been thinking that for awhile..Yes, we’re traumatized daily with violence in America but people really need to see the results of all of this😢
You’re completely right Eric R. If it was black kids that were doing this they would do something about it.
The gun lobby and its adherents don’t give a rat’s ass. They never have. They never will.
@@firstladyntrng1170Black folks continue to see and have been seeing results of white hate in America. The problem is these same hateful devils til this very day haven't been met with the same violence in DEFENSE, smh. It makes me sick to my stomach how we as black folks put up with their disgusting and inhumane asses during slavery the same exact way we're just allowing their ignorant and hateful behavior as we speak, smh. Marching, singing songs and praying has gotten us absolutely nowhere with this evil but back around full circle.
This is BS. If they are already okay with kids getting slaughtered pictures aren’t going to do anything except further traumatize survivors and victims families and desensitize some. Just trauma porn for some of you.
Was it ever explained how the shooter was equipped with thousands of dollars worth of new weapons and ammo? He, nor his family, had any sort of money. I guess the weapons also played into the scenario of the cops allowing the shooting to go on, waiting in the school's hallway for over 90 minutes before bursting into that classroom. Once the cops entered the classroom, the perpetrator was dead withing five minutes!!! It makes you think, though, doesn't it!
The lackluster responses to Sandy Hook and Uvalde tell you everything you need to know about how America regards its children.
Kids are more likely to die from drowning in a pool or spa then they are to die in a school shooting. Getting rid of all pools and spas would save more children.
Willing to sacrifice our children on the alter GUNS. Just sick.
This is not surprising. “Get over it”. Get over the Holocaust. Get over Slavery. Get over the attacks on Asians.
I thank God that I went to an all black elementary school - Peres Elementary School in Richmond, California in the early 1960s. We had educated, kind hearted, caring and loving administrators and teachers. Also grateful that the administrators and teachers were strict and fair to all students.
I hope that someone has the courage to publish the photos and the videos of the massacre. The bodies. The disfigured, scattered bodies of those kids. When and if the families agree, obviously. Rational arguments don't work with these folks. Numbers don't count. A coordinated campaign of this type, a shocking display of the horrors that they facilitated, could make a lot of sense where there's none. I'm sorry, but i'm tired of this. It's all so unbelievably evitable.
That is the dumbest idea ever. Using pics of dead kids to push your agenda? Wtf is wrong with you?
I used to do that with drunk drivers perfect size is that in the newspaper in the newspaper my English is off announce these drunk driving in newspaper you should do that with the children adults killings if people can only if they agree to the children's cover faces in it but still show the murder victims
What a difficult topic.. Amy Goodman of course handles it with so much class and professionalism. Props to Maria as well. Great job girls ❤
Imagine protecting politicians and banks more than schools…
Kaitlin/Caitlin Gonzalos is so brave and clear, I’m with her!
And yet, the area which includes Uvalde voted to re-elect Gov. Greg Abbott. The kids need to get their parents to vote to remove gun-crazed politicians.
☝️🤡
Gerrymandering works!!
The United States doesn't have a gun problem, it has a people problem.
@@levmoses742 apparently not. Beto isn’t governor.
@@justinp6839 oooo, yeah. I remember the folks who said no matter how they voted Beto kept showing up on their voter card. One woman had to vote 3 times.
That’s totally different.
Plus there’s been a lot more manipulation of how, where, and when folks can vote since then.
I mean honestly, as advanced as the U.S. is, not having the most important day of the year not be a holiday? 🤷🏻♂️ I don’t get that when so many working class people have a hard time getting time off…and if you have kids…
Thank you so much for an excellent report! Support for activists for peace.... No combat weapons on city street schools and public places....
if the police dont close with the shooter and kill them, it doesnt matter if he has an ar15 or a revolver.
All guns are combat weapons. If after all this, after all the time! If they don’t ban guns they are just stupid. America, you’re stupid!
R.I.P. 19 Children and 2 Teachers at Rob Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, it has been 1 year already. 💔
How can the dead rest in peace? They were violently shot and murdered.
17:00- this award winning journalist thinks AR stands for automatic rifle?
And that’s a lie about Uvalde PD’s body armor... they were issued level 4 armor... rated to withstand multiple rounds from an AR. They were just cowards.
What's the odds of 100% of +/- 400 Leo's being cowards that day?..... And what happened to the 45 year old male shooter police held in custody?.....😢
I HAVE to say this: THANK YOU Black Americans for paving the way and going before to show others how to fight for justice and civil rights. I am not a Black American but I recognize the MASSIVE debt of gratitude that is OWED to Black Americans for sacrificing their livelihood, and their very lives for civil rights. Because they DID, EVERY immigrant, regardless of color CAN. God bless you people! I will be forever grateful and will pay it forward.
Yes let’s thank the community that represents 14% of the population who commits 60% of all violent crimes. Think you might wanna rethink what you said
What are you on my friend? Black community? Huh? I if it's about being criminal behavior and against the laws then you r way off!!!
@@cosmicdjinn1743- I said what I said and I meant what I said.
Your obvious dislike for this community doesn't negate the fact that they have done a service to this country so kick rocks.
@@SoupBone-bp1qk lmao sorry you don’t like basic crime stats. You should be thanking the Republican Party for fighting for them from the beginning. It was the Republican Party that ended slavery and fought for equal rights for African Americans. Give credit where credit is due.
@@stephanyhdz92 - Was it Blacks destroying, pooping, peeing in the hallowed halls of Congress on Jan 6th? Were they the ones attempting to kill police officers and beat them to death with fire extinguishers and flag poles? Are they the majority of those shooting up schools, malls, churches, synagogues, grocery stores? Are they the ones who the FBI referred to as America's number one domestic terrorists?
Are they the ones known to be infiltrating police forces and the military with their hate filled Nazi ideologies per FBI records? Are they the ones whose gangs are among the worst and the most violent in America? Are they the ones who I see in the news teaching in majority minority schools and sleeping with their students? Are they the majority that are fueling the drug epidemic and dying from drugs in America? Do they make up the majority of the criminals stealing from the poor to give to the rich? Are they the criminals fighting to take away a person's bodily autonomy and right to choose? You know what they say about people in glass houses....so keep it moving.

AS SLOW AS THE JUSTICE SYSTEM IS… CHANGE IS GOING TO COME 😢KEEP ON FIGHTING 🙏🏽 👍🏽💔🩷
WHEN
It was not an Automatic Rifle. The men that finally went in were facing the same rifle, so what changed. Deer rifles can do the same damage . The AR rifle is a self defense weapon, that is what the shooter was taken out with. All have the same right to self defense against the crazy people who try to harm you.
You want to protect your children.. here is what you do.. you do for the children as the government does for its own employees.. that is, you do not enter into a court house where Judges sit and not be searched on the way in.. and you have armed security at the door.. how many judges do you see being shot to death? NONE while in the court buildings.. take all of the revenue generating police we have out there writing thousands and thousands of tickets and put them as security inside the schools.. and it can be as little as 2 per school.. one door open at the front of the building, the other doors locked, no entrance from the outside whatsoever.. only can be unlocked from the inside which will be for emergencies only with alarms to go off if they are opened.. its really this simple.. and every municipal in every city will be responsible for implementing it in their cities.. by LAW.. schools are basically open from early morning to about 5 or 6 in the evening.. so have either 2-6 hour shifts or 1-12 hour shift.. I would go with the 2-6 hour shifts.. 6am to Noon, and Noon to 6pm.. after which they can head on home.. or you can have one shift from 6am to 2pm, a full 8 hour shift, and then have another 4 hour shift till 6pm.. after which they can go back out on the streets for the other 4 hours.. It does not matter how you run it.. but its meant to keep the kids safe like you would do for a judge..
I wish we could display crosses for all politicians who have done nothing! Maybe then they will know their silence is death to us!
The NRA owns the republican party😊
Let Us Continue To 🙏🏾 PRAY and Ask The Lord For Blessings and Strength to All The Families and Community Of Uvalde ..If We As A People, with consciousness Do Not Understand The Effects From What Happened At ROBB Elementary, We Are LOST..I Remember Uvalde in 1970*** With The Students PROTESTS..It Was Powerful ..I Was In High School in California *** The Central Valley *** Marching With Cesar Chavez and The UNITED FARM WORKERS as A Teenager..with Other Students and Teenagers!! The Connections Are POWERFUL!! Continue Your FIGHT!!! UVALDE STRONG!!💪🦾
It turns out that the reason being given as to why Law Enforcement refused to confront the shooter was that these cowards noticed that they shooter had body armor better than theirs. Did these shameless officers stop to think that the kids and teachers had no protection at all! Of course not. Their life was more important than the kids and teachers. Despicable behavior and selective protection is the only way to describe their actions. How Sad.
Let Maria talk!
Texas & their god damn guns
He was just a kid at 18. Years old. Why was he allowed to buy a WAR style weapon?
War style? Tell us you're a braindead clown without telling us. And 18 isn't a kid.
But we allow 18 year olds to vote, and die for their country. An AR-15 looks like a military rifle, but it is not an automatic weapon. It's a semi-auto, meaning 1 pull of the trigger = 1 shot.
He wasn't. This is a medium caliber semi-automatic rifle. An m-16 is an assault rifle. A war style weapon is full-auto.
Id like to know where he got 9 grand from working part-time at Wendy's for 5 months
Hold the parents responsible for raising a crappy kid. Crappy kid insurance policy that must be purchased and kept in place until age 25. If he causes any harm to anyone, compensation is paid, all go to prison. No ones rights are trampled, No 2A Infringed. Problem solved.
Again and again. I don't know who can protect us now and when it will be over. I worry about our children's future.
You never should be able to buy any military style weapon
What military style weapon?
@@justinp6839 Jesus said put the weapons away but a lawless people are engaged in pure evil. The 2nd amendment as rationalized today is evidence of an evil people. Jesus calls them living by the gun lawless. No sane ruler would ever let Americans have such access to guns. Open carry is a sign of evil. Along with this evil is the weakest death penalty. No racist should ever have access to weapons.
The second amendment is for citizens to have the same weapons as the military so you are wrong. You are also wrong implying that military style weapons were used in this shooting because they weren't.
@@heatheruntz5315 are you here to denounce white racism?
The Second Amendment of the United States Constitution reads: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
this amendment is about a militia. and if it means access to any and all kinds of weapons then the second amendment is indeed more evil than first thought.
giving weapons to citizens is a recipe of disaster and at the same time not to have a robust death penalty adds to that.
a nation that focuses on rights instead of responsibility is a nation doomed for its disastrous end
if the second amendment is about unfettered access to weaponry and not a regulated militia then the founding fathers were not a very smart group they were spelling an end to their own country
@@heatheruntz5315 giving unfettered access to weapons to americans is about the dumbest thing ever promoted by anything or anyone
As long as guns sold like candy more horrors in coming
Did you say more horrors are coming after the guy plowed thru a bus stop killing 8? I bet not...
But you go ahead and keep blaming an object instead of the person
If a country has enemies like Russia or China or Iran or North Korea it is a good idea to have EVERY citizen trained in the safety and use of a firearm no later than 18years old. You are being trained to protect yourself and your children and Your country. Police have NO duty to protect you Castle Rock V Gonzalez and the Supreme court stated if you you are taken hostage by a criminal the police can kill you the hostage in Order to get the suspect. Everyone needs to be trained to protect themselves and country.
😒👎
Ask the women in Ukraine or Vietnam OR anywhere, domestic or foreign conflicts have incurred and Natural disasters have occurred and females will tell you a firearm helps them survive an animal or human predators. If You think the police and government will protect you think again The USA Supreme court stated they have NO duty to help, Assist or protect females.
Lets see, all courts protect judges, etc in their buildings with armed police! Politicians have armed details but not for our children which has been done on purpose!!! Its all to tale away guns! Imagine leaving the most vulnerable, children to not have the same protection!
Very sad situation. I know about ever worse situation that nobody seems to care about: weekly shootings in Chicago. Many more lives lost in Chicago alone due to democrats refusing to apply law on their preferred criminals. I suggest to start action by demanding that democrats follow the rule of law instead of excusing minorities that kill, loot and pillage.
Great reporting! But these people are so heartless to the innocent blood that is shed. ONLY UNTIL IT HAPPENS TO THEM WILL THEY KNOW AND FEEL THE DEPTH OF PAIN AND THEN WANT TO CHANGE THE SYSTEM!
I bet he was getting prescription medication from big pharma. Nobody in law enforcement has been judged for their inaction that day it seems. Politics, law enforcement and health care seem to be blameless in the usa, gee did I pick the wrong career.

Here in Europe we still don’t understand why America doesn’t ban guns. We have mentally challenged people here but no one can get guns and therefore no mass shootings and massacres. We feel for Uvalde and all victims there that get no justice or protection from their government.
You just have kids running around with knives🙄
And banning guns won't do anything.
@@blackhawk2302 I,highly,doubt that Europe’s problem with homicide via knife is comparable to our own problem with homicide via firearm.
@@myleslong5584 A couple years ago it was reported that the UK crime rates surpassed NY city's......
America has one of the biggest black markets for guns in the world banning them won’t do shit
I wonder if the 77 mins was for the cops to get all their new war toys geared up before they can take down one shooter.
The mental health crisis is real everywhere. Where did this madness begin before the afflicted took fire.
Wow very interesting excellent!!
Who was rhe Cop who had seconds to take out the gunman when he got to the school door. All the kids and teachers should be alive today! A ban on assault weapons, weapons of war has worked before. The only solution.
Not really go look under your kitchen sink if you have really any cleaning sprays you can pretty much make mustard gas and it’s not uncommon for these shooters to use pipe bombs and shit thankfully so non have worked but that’s not gonna be like that forever
I’m Choctaw and the punishment for speaking Spanish gave me chills 😢
I think its a shame that nobody talks about mental health issues that are so obviously at the root of these incidents, not to mention the societal trends and cultural factors at play. There is such a rich discussion to be had here, but materialist culture has sadly given the left tunnel vision. Blaming inanimate objects is akin to hitting an obscene easy button.
An AR killed those children.
@@user-ti3vp9mt3z It was a shotgun that ended the massacre too, so what's your point? BTW, punches and kicks kill more people than anyone with an AR 15. We pass laws against fighting, but guess what......
@@user-ti3vp9mt3z ya and ban guns then it will be pipe bombs maybe we should actually fix the fucking problem
Every young woman should have training in a firearm in the USA . Many countries make it mandatory that females know how to clean, assemble and fire a gun .
Ms Hinojosa I really enjoyed your book Once I was You
Guns are not the problem. The cities with the strictest gun laws have the highest firearm murder rate.
Are you sure of that statistic? Look at the UK statistics where the common police officer bears no firearms. Let police officers start by only bearing firearms in case of response to firearms situations. Then the population would be enclined to follow and not bear firearms too.
@@fra2847 Now tell us all the other problems we have that the UK doesn't.
@@blackhawk2302 The emphasis is not on problem, it's on solutions be it for the UK or anywhere else (the UK being only one example with their own problems the US may not have). Part of the solution is getting accurate with ones statistics. I might be wrong as well as anyone else with my statement of statistic. I or anyone else saying it doesn't make it so. Always doing ones own due diligence by simply making the effort of double checking ones or others statistics statement before buying into the subintended opinion goes a long way to citizenship responsibility towards voting and preventing tyranny to creep back in. Thank you for your next input.

P.S.
National Firearms survey stats, say, there are, 1.67 million people that use firearms for defence yearly. 82% never fire a shot.
That's 4445.34 people per day,use a firearm to save a life. The FBI, has it between 1.5 million known & 3 million per year.
On average the Anti Gun community says, that 100 (36,5k)-130 (47,450), people die from firearms daily of BUT,they don't tell you that more then half are suicide,and that don't include the 1-2 million that commit or survive suicide by other means and 80%-82% of the rest is Gang on Gang & the rest is crime against citizens, accidental and police shootings.
Per the CDC'S Sight, the so called, GUN PANDEMIC/ HEALTH ISSUE,came in at #23 from the top of ways people die in this country with #1 of course being the worse. Now,this doesn't include the 130k that die from Snake bites yearly or the 250k that die from Dr. Negligence yearly or the 600k Abortions of witch 1/4 are done at full term from what I hear. THAT'S (MURDER) 150k full term Babies aborted and NONE of the Mother's or Medical staff charged...so this puts the way people die from Guns, down to 26 on the CDC'S Sight just to mention some other one's and don'tforget covid. So were is this So Called "Gun PANDEMIC/HEALTH issue...
To Recape-OVER 35x'S MORE, PER DAY, a firearm is used for defence. 35x'S more.Look @ what they got away with in the last 4 yrs, now Imagine what they will get away with IF, they take our gun's...
HISTORY FACTS:
Switzerland, issues ALL of it's citizens GUNS and proper training witch gives them the lowest rate of GUN crime of any civilized country in the world, and if you try to use the excuse that they have strict gun regulations, then you have to factor in that we have 36x's more people and GUNS then they do, in an more dence populated cities. If you do the math, SHOOTING death are a very small %.
Around 0.012% YEARLY
THE Government tells us, taking GUNS, via "Buy Backs", or via shaming and using mass shootings, is for our protection. But history teaches diffrent and here are some examples...
1911-Turkey ESTABLISHED gun control then from 1915-1917, 1.5 million Armenians,unable to protect themselves, were rounded up and exterminated...
1929- Soviet union does the same with GUN control,and 1923-53, about 20 million of it's citizens met the same fate by it's GOVERNMENT...
1935- China does the same to it's citizens from 1948-52 about 20 million political people met their maker thanks to Chinese government.
1938-Germany, well we know this part. From 1939-45, 13 million Jews met their maker.
1956-Cambodia 1975-77 exterminated it's 1 MILLION EDUCATED people.
1964-Guatemala, from 1964-1981 100 THOUSAND Mayan Indians wdrdd exterminated.
1970-Uganda from 1971-79, 300 THOUSAND Christian's, exterminated. And during the 80's-90s, the tutti or tutu WIPE out over 1 million other Africans using Machetes and Ak's that included kid's and babies.
A total of 56 million people were rounded up and MURDERED by their GOVERNMENTS in the name of GUN control, and our safety in the 20th CENTURY alone.
P.S.
3-4x's more people are killed by other weapons,like knives, and BEATINGS BY HANDS AND feet per year than guns 3-4X'S per year per FBI UCR UNIFORM CRIME REPORT yearly.
THE GOVERNMENT, HAS ONLY ONE AGENDA FOLKS, AND THAT IS, TO DISARM US. FOR ALL OF YOU THAT ARE HELPING YOU WILL REGRET THIS IF YOU DON'T WAKE THE FUCK UP...
Wow!!!!!!!!!!
Stand up for Human Rights, for Real not just Propaganda. Make Humans not Monsters.

Thank you Maria! I am glad you have not put this story away in a storage shed! The killer of kids that came from Allen,Tx to El Paso, Tx to hunt for Mexicans! Is still in jail and no sign of a courtj day for him,!
Nothing will happen. Weve seen this story before.
I was in a Fusion Mariachi band in the 70s called LaTinx. Rhymes with stinks. I have to smile everytime I hear latinx used to identify hispanics. I realize its an attempt at inclusion but its not working. My kids use it as an insult.
It's amazing how stupid otherwise rational people can argue against gun control. Those kids were left defenseless for over an hour...shame!
2nd amendment.
Instead of whining about gun control, you should be asking why Ramos wasn't questioned or arrested for making threats 2 months before. And also what took the cops so long.
The "persecuted" person whose identity is based on a hunk of metal that kills people is hilarious. What a stupid life.
When you want to protect yourself from violence, don't rely on someone else to do it. If your children really matter to you, don't leave their fate in the hands of institutions like the corrupt police and public fool system to provide protection.
You're paranoid and lost. Good luck with all that.
So what, give your kid a gun? Hire a bodyguard? Follow your kids everywhere and if you don’t, they don’t matter?
wtf are you babbling about?
public fool system - what an excellent title, well deserved.
You think it’s a Public Fool System,now? Just wait until we see the results of the,unnecessary,book bans and proposed library closings in years to come. Not to mention,the modifications to twist history lessons into our own,reflective,liking in some cases. Even if the kids CAN manage to dodge bullets through twelve grade levels,they’ll still end up with limited knowledge in a world of progressive competition,leaving them at a distinct disadvantage in job markets and on the world stage.

Hmmmm. Very interesting
Age limit should be 25 to buy an AR 15
That is absolutely pointless, more people are killed each year with blunt objects then are killed with so called "assault rifles".
@Chris Harding i agree. But an AR-15 can kill in numbers. You can fight off someone with a blunt item.
@@diggorypat66 Statistics show around 450 people each year are killed with rifles and that is rifles in general not just so called "assault rifles". Those same statistics show around 650 people were killed with hands and feet. Rifles in general make up a tiny percentage of murders committed with firearms.
Horrible, prayers to everyone. But, no saying LATINO ON LATINO CRIME HERE. I'm Black, that is only said about Black People.
That was a very sad day indeed. Guns are not the problem. It’s the attitude of the ppl. My argument would be ppl own cars that can go 160 to 250 mph yet most speed limits around the U. S. are 55 to 75 mph. Ppl die in car accidents everyday yet there’s no call to ban cars🤔
Millions in US illegally many with guns from other nations.
This woman is so ridiculous. Why is she changing into Spanish all the time? I speak Spanish also but this is an English speaking news channel.
Listen to all those company names they advertise before getting to the actual discussion, companies that are about to make money because 17 children were shot dead with a military weapon. She then CONTINUES to promote her book and Podcast. Damn, that's fucking brutal. Using murdered children to make money. Out of the respect of those poor little kids I won't be watching any of it and avoiding that woman's name like the plague.
How dare you.
That lady did the work ot putting the event into the proper context so poeple can have a fuller understanding of the underpinnings of the situations, notably yhe larger picture of the neglected status of Uvalde residents and their history related to the close location with the mexican border which most of the audience did not know before her telling it that story. Nobody is forced to buy her book which topic seems even is unrelated to the event and only meant as a "author cretential contextual introduction as pulitzer price recipient" and frankly the intention is not to bank on the event empathy of the people rather to produce quality work covering the event in its many lesser known aspects. The fact that she spent time going to the place and recoiling the people testimony and could experience first hand (not just repeating uniform headlines missinformation such as "the new normal" of networks practices) and share their real feelings and tragedy means she made the earnest effort of living through the experience closely, as the prediatrician she shared the testimony of can tell. It's not self or business purpose promotion intended. It's decent sharing of the context and close reality experience of the event relaying to the audience so we can form a more accurate opinion about it than the saldy all too common and poor quality reporting "unpreventable and helpless tragedy narrative" others try to inform our opininons of the matter with.

The people of the Texas "valley" now know what the republicans they voted for think of them. I hope the Hispanic community take their disappointment to the ballot box in the next election. Not one word of condolence from Senator Ted Cruz or Governor Greg Abbott.
I am shaking watching this. Tears and rage. Why are these weapons of war legal in this country it is.F****** insane.
God bless America and our second amendment
Isn’t it obvious we just need better trauma surgeons sooo people don’t have to give up their assault rifles just because a few kids are shot. We have lost our humanity in this country.
An "assault rifle" was never used in any mass shooting. Not one. Don't whine about something you don't even understand.
@@blackhawk2302 I keep hearing (or reading,in this case) that the weapons used in these mass shootings are not assault rifles. What would the proper term be for referring to an AR 15 or Kel-Tech or whatever specific rifle that was used in myriad events to,allegedly,separate limbs from bodies and bring eternal sleep to these victims? Your knowledge upon the subject would be appreciated and it would be helpful to know the proper reference,just in case I feel like whining about the situation,sometime in the future.
@@myleslong5584 Seems like you're way too emotional to bother to try reading or accept facts. It's blatantly obvious you don't know what an assault rifle is. Go read what 1986 has to do with it and what a true assault rifle is. (Hint: there's 3 prerequisites that define one)
FYI- they don't remove limbs. That's more emotional bs. And the Kel Tec 2000 doesn't even fire a rifle round, it's chambered in HANDGUN calibers, most common being a 9mm. That blows your "assault rifle" argument right out of the water.
Furthermore, go read the actual stats on firearm homicides. The vast vast vast majority are committed with handguns. Last year reported, 2021, 6500+ murdered with handguns, less than 500 murdered by *ALL rifle types combined. That scary black rifle you're so petrified of is responsible for 1% of firearm homicides. There's more people beaten to death every year than are murdered by *ALL rifle types. Drop the liberal media and go check the FBI website. You fell for a political narrative.
@@myleslong5584 And the AR platform is a semi-automatic sporting/hunting rifle. No different than any other semi auto on the market.
@@blackhawk2302 So,you’re saying it should be referred to as “a semi-automatic sporting/hunting rifle,”? Think it’s easier just to go with specifics,then. Like AR15 or whatever brand/model. Out of curiosity and in your opinion,why do the vast majority of these mass shooters choose to use the AR15 or rifles with similar capabilities? Why not use a semiautomatic pistol or a different style of rifle? Not that we can,actually,get inside the heads of these people…I’m only asking your opinion.
60s and 70s movements are irrelevant today.
@Andre Seewood Without continuous actions of those movements and others slavery, serfdom, segregation, outright and unapologetic bigotry, mysogyny, colonialism, eugenism, discrimination, genocides, imperialism, technocides and totalitarianism would still rule or rule much more than they still do. All it takes is for the cowards at the top to incentivize enough of the people to serve as their agents against the people for them never to have to work while all other work to serve them. All it took was 15 years (1918-1933) for Germany/Austria/Hungary to degenerate from the leading world culture (Vienna tradition) to the least one (Rommel, Hitler, Goebbels). All because the poeple did not "move". Or more accurately because the people moved against one another in the service of the few at the top who profited hansomely from it as a result.
@fra I agree, but why was the covid restrictions, lockdowns, mask mandates, shutdown of bussiness, mandatory experimental vaccines to keep jobs, old people dying alone, and the list goes on...how was that any different?
Not the ideal solution, but until the politics changes which could take decades, why not provide teachers and school staff or school security agents with AR15 as well as publicly funded training. At least the school killers would think twice before attempting the school shootings and that could suffice in reducing them 10 fold to 1 school shooting per month instead the current statistics of 1 a day. Else the adults are defensless and can do nothing to defend the children under their care. With basic prepardness at least thez could act. Lack of prepardness is always tantamount to lack of prevention of what could be prevented otherwise, if not all the killings themseves at least the high number of them. The teacher in those classroom could have easilz dettered or reduced the number of kids dying by fighting back and at least sacrificing themselves making sure the number of kids dying would be significantly less. Instead they could do nothing simplz because they had no AR15 readily available to defend themselves, to self-defend themselves. And at least with those AR15 and public funding of every school staff memeber to self-defense they can do something in each and every new case of school assault of and can reduce that risk responsibly. Doing nothing instead and hoping for the best is not a solution and quite irresponsible for the kids under thez care while they have the means to self-protection and self=defense available to them. Also, the fear and anguish of school staff memebers going to school everz day wondering if they are to be next is quite toxic athmosphere to teach children. At least with proper self-defense means at their disposal they could feel more in control and ready to address in some way any suc future situation by at least reducing the number of casualities with self-defense actions.
Also, since the police officers don't care to act when they are paid to, why not defund them and instead fund the school staff weapons and self-defense training with the police fundings. Since those police officers fear more poverty than AR15, take their funds and pension away as proper incentive and you can be sure their "bravery" and sense of duty will come back to their sense in no time. Else, do the simple thing, take their funds and pension away and reallocate them to schools self=defense programs.
The primary question to ask oneself is why are there as many school shootings and how to reduce them, not why the shooters do it.
A simple answer to whzy so many is because the shooters know the schools are currently verz easz targets and thez risk literalz nothing bz going to schools with kids to do their deeds. That's the main reason because there are not daily Police stations shootings, because the shooters know they have close to yero odds to do as much damage in police stations. Silmpz because Schools are defensless.
A simple answer to how to reduce drastically the numbers and the scope of school shooting is as simple. Provide weapons and public funds previous ly allocated to police stations to schools. It doesn't take rocket science degree to know right of the bat that school shooter would at least be scared to go doint their deeds to schools if they know that from now on they are to be met with much more weapons and trained staff members. Thez would know the odds are stacked against them.
Then also, teachers would do a better jobs preventing children potential shooters by addressing the issue and making it a school topic to prevent it early on in school curriculum reducing the underlying problem of not having school programs dealing with the issue with kids early on which would lessen the chances and statistics ultimately of children assaullting schools. For the rest non schildren shooters, trained and self-defense ready school staff member would shift the courage burden to the shschool shooter as they would know it would teake them much more effort and fear attempting their deeds knowing multiple staff members would response with self defense rather than being defensless targets.
