    There was a mom who was handcuffed from trying to enter the school after she saw that the police weren't doing anything. She got out of the handcuffs, bypassed more police standing around the area, ran into the area close to where the gunman was at and managed to get her two sons out. The police department tried to threaten her to not say anything to the press, but thankfully she was able to tell the world the lack of action from the police that dreadful day

    The worst part in the Uvlade case is that the police was twiddling their thumbs and waited before going in. Instead of going in right away to get the shooter. And now they’re trying to save their image by making all kinds of excuses of why they delayed going in.

      Allowed , not required . They are not allowed .There is a lot of rules when you work in police that make no sense . For example: In domestic abuse cases if victim says everything is fine ,you have to leave . They can be bleeding from their eyes but you are not allowed to do anything . Do anything outside of that you can go from fired to arrested and going to prison. There was probably police officers who wanted to just go in but higher ups didn't let them because at the end of the day its about their politics ( I worked with the ex police captain in furniture store. She had problems with the whole thing so she lost her job and was working in furniture store for a minimal pay, not in America but its similar everywhere)

    I live in a community where school shooting threats are common and I've had my own life directly threatened by gun violence in school. We even had a kid once run through the school attempting to stab people with a box cutter. The issue of kids with weapons is a lot more direct than people may think. Even if someone isn't acting on their violent urges, we still deal with the silent threats of other students. Please, anyone, if you have a voice, speak on this issue for the sake of kids like me.

It was insane and I heard a lot of stuff about it, and ever since I've been there... there have been so many threats, lockdowns, lockouts, the fire alarms going off etc! (Not to mention there are over 2,000 people in that school) like not too long ago, a few months ago someone set a fire in one of the Boy's Bathrooms and I heard that the kid wanted to hurt people but not sure (pretty much all of the bathrooms are blocked off with caution tape some days they aren't and some days they are the reason is for fires I'm guessing, people dealing drugs and alcohol, smoking weed, flooding the bathrooms, and stealing stuff!)

      In 2018, a few months before the end of my senior year, the news about the school shooting in Parkland happened. My school did our own memorial assembly about it. Not even a week after, a student made and gun and bomb threat to the school and our school did nothing. Like 300 students either didn't come to school or left at some point during the day. My best friend and her brother and I always made escape plans in case it happened so we made a plan to leave our school and book it to the elementary school to get their youngest brother then at least make it to the Dairy Queen down the street. Nothing happened that day because they caught the kid, but all the students were freaking out and the teachers just told us to "stop being dramatic because crime doesn't happen in our city" which is the biggest lie I've ever heard.

      Multiple lockdowns and several intruder alerts all throughout elementary, middle, and high school. Still get them in college sometimes. It's traumatizing. There was a mass shooting in my community, it's freaking terrifying and traumatizing for anyone, even if you're not directly involved. You just have this fear, you know that when you go out to class it could be the last time you do so, it could be the last time you see your family, your friends. You just have to live with that knowledge and that fear and you have to prepare for it like monthly in drills and whenever you get things called in, which only retraumatizes. When a recent event occurred at my university (it was a hoax luckily), all the students acted in such a panicked yet prepared way, as if they were trained since birth for this sort of thing, and it's not too far from the truth to say that honestly.

    in the past month we’ve had major mass shootings at a grocery store, a school, and a hospital. we literally aren’t safe anywhere. i’m constantly looking over my shoulder and assessing my surroundings for danger when I go to get groceries or am just out in public. we all collectively, as a country, have PTSD from this toxic environment, which the government and gun lobby are trying to tell us is “unpreventable” and “like a hurricane or tornado, natural.” this doesn’t happen in other countries. it has a profound effect on every single child going to school in this country- having to have the possibility of being brutally murdered every day in the back of their mind.
    but the NRA wants to make more money, the government is willing to be paid off by them, and the police departments WANT us to be scared so that we keep throwing money in their pockets so they can continue to do NOTHING to protect us. 83% of Americans agree with passing more gun safety laws, but it’s been decades and none have been written. that’s democracy, right? where 83% of people want something and it doesn’t happen?

Another reason was the info on the body’s were never released and there’s no crime scene photos at all besides a few that only shows the classroom after cleanup apparently. There’s no autopsy to my knowledge or anything like that so people got suspicious. Vs with uvalde you saw the body bags. Or stone man Douglas where with a little digging you could find photos during and after the shooting before cleanup. (I don’t recommend searching for these photos) anyways back to sandy hook, the parents were threatened and called liars because of all the facts I stated above. Recently a lot of parents have been suing for misinformation and deformation

    I live in Australia, so just thinking about the fear parents in America have to go through, not knowing whether their child will come home from school in the afternoon, all because anybody has access to guns is just shocking. It makes me sick to think that their are still politicians and people fighting for the freedom of guns, when there are children going through life scarring experiences everyday. STOP GUN VIOLENCE!
    Yes I believe everyone has the freedom of speech and the ability to do what they want, but not everyone should be able to access guns. In Australia you can get guns, but you have to have a license and even if you own one, you have to keep it locked up, and you wonder why we haven't had a school shooting since May 7th 2012, but even then, nobody was injured or killed.
    If you have the right to own a gun, then students and their parents have the right to feel safe when going to school, or when their child goes to school. STOP THE GUN VIOLENCE!!!!
    In Australia there are rules around who can own a firearm for example they have to:
    (1) identify your 'genuine reason' for wanting a gun licence: sport/target shooting, recreational hunting, primary production, pest control, business or employment, rural occupation, animal welfare, firearm collector.
    (2) Depending on your genuine reason/s you will need to provide the required proof for that genuine reasons i.e.: proof of club membership, proof of employment, proof below to collector society, proof from accountant or solicitor that you are primary producer or employer that you are a security guard etc.
    (3) obtain an application form for a firearm licence
    (4) Complete a multi-day firearm safety course. Pass a written test and practical assessment which will provide certificate that you have passed and completed course.
    (5) Compile your firearm application form:
    Identify your genuine reasons for a firearm
    Identify Category of firearm you require: A, B, C, D and/or H. For D (most lethal firearms. For category D (Self-loading rifles and shotguns), applicant must show "special reason" as to why the applicant needs such a firearm and why a less lethal firearm would not fit the purpose.
    attach safety training completion certificate
    declaration that you meet safe storage requirements for the firearm category you are seeking. Firearm storage is generally not inspected but random checks are allowed.
    4) Firearms Registry processes your application and conduct background checks: includes - criminal record and any court ordered mental health orders and intelligence checks.

    If you have a record for a 'prescribed offence' then you cannot obtain a gun licence including:
    - sexual offences
    - Violent offences
    - Offences related to prohibited drugs
    - Robbery
    - Terrorism-related offences
    - Offences relating to organised crime and criminal groups
    - Firearms or weapons offences
    - Fraud, dishonesty and stealing offences5) Wait at least 28 days for checks to be conducted and application processed.
    6) If your application is approved you will be sent a letter. You then go to what is known as the Road Traffic Authority wit the letter and your proof of ID. RTA will take your photo, you pay a fee and RTA will issue and firearm licence.

Going to school is basically a life risk because you never know when some maniac is going to bring a weapon in the school. It's so incredibly depressing because the kids go there to have a future, get education, and see friends and they can't even do that. The poor kids who passed didn't even get a chance to grow up and enjoy their lives, it makes me emotionally exhausted just thinking about it.

    I live not too far from Uvalde and I have family members whose immediate reaction, rather than shock and horror and pain for these babies and their families, was to scream about gun rights on Facebook. So many posts about 'SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED', meanwhile the coroner was interviewed saying that a few kids were hit by so many bullets that they were decapitated and unrecognizable. The 2nd amendment is one sentence long and begins with 'A well regulated Militia'. An 18 year old is not a well regulated militia. Randos off the street with no background checks are not a well regulated militia. People with no training are not a well regulated militia. I lived in the UK for 5 years and felt so much safer because I didn't have to worry about guns everywhere. A school shooting happened there in the 90's, at Dunblane, and it triggered huge reforms.

      Sadly, I’m from America. You know what my mom said on our way back to our Airbnb? We passed a ice cream place and she said she wanted ice cream. My brother and I were disappointed noting how Americanized and desensitized my mom was despite being from Denmark while my brother and I were born in America. It’s so normal that even immigrants who live here for a period of time get desensitized to shootings.

As a result, politics in the US has become extremist. Some of the shit US politicians say, straight-faced, is mind boggling (looking at you Majorie Taylor Greene).
      The US is an oligarchy/corporatocracy being run for the interests of the rich and powerful. They've figured out how to make democracy into more of a facade than anything impactful.

    It’s crazy to think it’s become such a problem that many kids are desensitized to it. So many of my friends and literal children these days have gotten so used to the idea of school shooters that the common response is “I’m surprised we haven’t had a school shooting yet” with little to no emotion shown. They literally sell bulletproof sweaters and childrens backpacks FOR school shootings yet never want to actually do anything about the guns themselves. So many kids and parents are used to saying goodbye and telling their parents they love them more than anything in the world every time they leave for school in the morning because we don’t know if we’re going to come back home that day. It’s honestly sickening. The worst response I’ve ever encountered was when I took my brothers and puppy to the park near my house after a few days after the shooting happened and a little kid, no more than 7 came to me after playing with my brother to pet my puppy. He asked me if I saw what happened on the news because he said his parents cried and talked to him about it. When I said yes I did and that it was okay because it wasn’t going to happen to him he looked me dead in the eye, smiled the sweetest smile and said “but it’s okay if a bad guy comes because I can be like spider man and save all my friends when I stop the bad guy”. I literally started crying after he left because I was so disgusted at the fact that this little innocent kid already had a plan to try and stop a person with a gun if his school got shot up. Kids shouldn’t ever have to worry about that. Ever. And the fact that they do makes me physically sick

    We have a 19 year old cousin graduating high school and her 5 year old nephew (another cousin) graduating from preschool. High school graduation was first and it was a great celebration. Then a fight broke out afterwards outside. This fight started and stopped about 4-5 times and then someone pulled a gun and started shooting. A friend/co worker that attended with us was hit in the leg. We had pressed into the side of our vehicle to take cover. The the 19 yo and 5 yo were in our vehicle. The person who was shot got injured right behind where we had taken cover. 2 others were shot and one did pass from their injury. Our friend is fine now. The next week was the 5 yo graduation. He had been excited but then he had a moment where he was scared because he didn't want to get shot. Our babies should NOT be scared EVER but especially not on a special day... a milestone in their life.

I know this video will also attract people in the US who don't believe Gun Control is the solution, and want to take a mental health perspective or a school fortification perspective, but that is not the entire story. Please consider the argument, I genuinely want you to. Mental health is an aspect of this, but I can have all the intent in the world to cause harm, but if I don't have a METHOD to do so effectively my intent won't matter. Though the extremism and violent intent -- the underlying motivations -- also need to be addressed, gun regulations NEED to be the leading effort right now.
    Additionally, rampant personal liberties to firearms, that kind of freedom "to" does not outweigh my or others freedom "from." We deserve to be free from gun violence and from the threat of gun violence. And kids deserve to feel free from Gun Violence in school. Their freedom to education and to safety is not less important than your freedom to get guns quick. What is wrong with a background check? What is wrong with proper training? What is wrong with responsible Gun ownership? I'm not wary of guns, but I respect their power and the danger therein, and i think that respect should be ingrained into our laws and government.

I was on my last week of high school when we received the notice :( I do not have family over there but when we go and help the community it was devastating even if did not knew anyone. I gave all my prayers to them 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍

    Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings to our sister city here in Texas.
    You are 100% correct, no child should live in fear or be murdered at an early innocent age, EVER!
    We all need to stand up and stop the violence against the people who their only goal in life is to hurt innocent people/children.

    I live in the neighboring city that the Uvalde shooting happened in and it was the most devastating news to hear. I graduated the week this happened and we held a moment of silence for the victims of the shooting, and it was the most serious i had ever seen my class. It showed how close to home it was for a lot of us and how tragic this event was. Even for me, my dad had worked clinic at this school years ago and he broke down hearing this news. People at my school lost some family from this. It truly is the worst thing to have heard happen. These kids were just looking forward to summer and this happened. My heart seriously goes out to these families and these "thoughts and prayers" will never be enough to give justice to the kids and the families. Even at my school we've had multiple shooting threats and bomb threats that were NEVER taken seriously. There needs to be a stop to this cause it will just keep happening. When is the end to this?

    I have a high schooler and a middle schooler and I am afraid every day that I send them to school and have been for years. They are both afraid as well. This year there was an incident where the high school contacted parents to let us know they found a student with a (supposedly unloaded) gun and that he had been taken into custody and was being dealt with by the appropriate authorities, but they never told the kids. I just hug them both a little tighter every morning. Even though they have the option for virtual classes, both of them have ADHD and were virtual schooled through 2020 because of COVID regulations, and it was a horrible solution for both of them. Led to a lot of depression, anxiety, and failing classes because they had trouble understanding the content when the teacher wasn't in the room with them. So unfortunately those virtual classes are not for everyone.
    The fact remains that it's not just schools. It's everywhere. I am afraid for my life every time I leave my house. I order groceries instead of going to the grocery store myself, and every time I go to the bank or the gym or anywhere else I wonder if there might be someone just waiting to kill everyone in the building.
    It's unfortunate that our country has been so broken with the two party political system for so long. That even when we are able to elect people who actually want to do something about it, we are fucked over by the gun-loving psychopaths elected in red states blocking the laws put on the floor.
    I really do wish it were easier to emigrate to other countries, because the US is SO screwed up it might as well be a third world country by now, and it's disturbing that people in EVERY OTHER COUNTRY can see it but half the people in this one are too stupid to.

    It is so incredibly frustrating in a way words can’t describe to live in Texas. Especially when things like this happen.
    My mother is a high school teacher. My brother just graduated high school. I was in college this past year, and the way almost every day but especially after this happened, I prayed and hoped that they would be safe. That every time we had a shooting drill or warning that they were safe. My mom is in charge of locking the doors of one building and that’s such a dangerous and important position, and every time I was stuck in a dark room with my other classmates, I hoped that she was okay. That my brother was okay. And now, I have to beg and plea and pray that my mom will be safe since my brother and I are off to college now. I need her to be safe, miles and miles away from both of us.
    When people talk about arming the teachers, I just can’t take them seriously because I imagine my mom. My mom with her 20+ years in education just trying to make it to 3 more so she can retire after we finish college. My mom who has never held a gun in her life, who just wants to help her students succeed and keep them safe. My mom who should never be put in this position. It is frustrating to live in Texas when they care and act about all the wrong things and hem and haw when change is demanded.
    The amount that Texas cares about issues like this is disgusting. None of the children should ever be afraid of going to school. No parent should ever have to lose their child, especially like this.

    The little boy from South Carolina was near my hometown. About 20 mins away. The teenager stole the gun from his dads safe and walked to the elementary school. The kids were outside for recess and the shooter shot him in the leg and it hit his major artery and he lost too much blood. I believe the shooter also killed his own father.

    The first video happened in my state of Texas. It happened in May of this year. There were 376 law enforcement officers there at the school. Several different law enforcement agencies there. They waited 77 minutes before finally going into the classroom and killing the shooter. That day the police officers were cowards. But by the time they finally breached the classroom 19 children and 2 teachers were dead. And 17 more children were injured. The shooter had an AR15 rifle and had so much ammunition (bullets). They killed the shooter.
    The police were scared to confront this 18 yr old shooter because he had that AR15. But the police were heavily armed as well with body armor, bullet proof vests and shields. But they were scared. Our state of Texas has a governor who set policy that all adults can carry a weapon, no permit needed. No background check. No training at all. The parents of Uvalde, Texas were hysterical. Screaming and crying and begging to go in so that they could try to save their children. One young mother broke away from the police and ran in and saved her 2 young sons along with others. They tired to arrest this mother. Our governor said "it could have been worse." He should be so ashamed of himself because he's made it to where anyone at least 18 yrs old can buy a gun no questions asked. This was a tragedy and not the 1st mass school shooting in the state of Texas. I'm heartbroken. 💔😞😓

    I'm all for people wanting to buy guns for protection or hunting game but people should not have access to military grade weapons. And I support raising the age to buy a gun cause 18 year olds should not be worrying about buying a gun, they should be focused on school or working. But of course the u.s. politicians are not gonna get anything done and the cycle will repeat the next time a school shooting happens.

    These past few weeks have been very taxing emotionally and mentally for a lot of Americans. Even though I do not have any children myself, I have a young niece and nephew who are going to be school-age soon. I really, really hope my brother and his wife decide to homeschool because sending them off everyday while being unsure of if they'll return home safely is just so terrifying. School shootings are not "a side effect of a free society," as some Americans seem to think. It is an entirely preventable tragedy that can be possible with stricter gun laws. I have no fantasies about completely abolishing guns, of course, but AT LEAST make it harder for those unqualified to get them. Also, I personally see no need for automatic/semiautomatic weapons in the hands of normal civilians, that is just ridiculous to me.
