Even Barney Fife would have put his bullet in his gun

Barney probably would be a step up. 👍

Cops are your friends

Sure, the friend that always shows up late, who needs money for gas, the friend who never picks up the phone.

I'm VERY pro cop, bt in this case, pretty anti-chief.

BY THE GODS!!!! even in a thick South Vietnamese jungle, under fire, the medic tried to do what he could!!

this gentlemanly undefinable excuse for a man put his bare foot dead square into a fire ant heap!!!

Sue this man for his cars, his house, the food in the pantry and all the dishes in the cupboard, his clothes, any items of value including heiooms, his bank account, and his pension!!

County LEOs are fine. But every state should have an elite LE arm of exceptional personnel granted extreme latitude.

Imagine what Michigan's Whitmer or California's Newsome could accomplish with THAT tool!

"Extreme latitude" also means the latitude to not respond, or to even prevent others from responding. LEOs answer to the executive branch, by both design and definition. The construct you are asking for is exactly what the FBI was supposed to be.

Do you trust the FBI?

“But every state should have an elite LE arm of exceptional personnel granted extreme latitude.”

That all depends on who is running the show — libs or conservatives. It would work for FL, but in CA ... not so much.

"Pete Arredondo, the Uvalde school police chief who assumed the role of incident commander at the scene, decided to clear the rest of the school instead of immediately confronting the gunman."

Cowardly, lying scumbag.

I know looks are deceiving, but with the exception of the little girl, they all look like experienced operators. Where were they? The more I read, the more I'm aghast at this massacre.

The latest being the Chief of School Police fiddling with different keys. There had to be a way to take down that steel door. And, as the LEOs were helping some kids escape through windows, why didn't they go in through those same windows? Or were those rooms not attached to the shooter rooms.

I can understand not wanting to breach too soon so as not to antagonize the shooter into killing more hostages. However, if the reports are true about the kids calling 911 and everyone outside hearing repeated gunfire, I would think that would be the time to risk everything for those children. But then, I'm just a simple aviation swabbie.

What's your take on this disaster, and what would you have done differently with combat SpecOps experience with the reports we have so far? Please help me with this Travis.
