Negative.

It was a rogue, off duty BP officer that ended the killings.

Re: 21 - I can’t imagine the LEOs that exhibited cowardice would be readily accepted into another agency.

” The report detailed many attempts by officers to get keys to unlock doors inside the school, delaying efforts to get inside classrooms.”

KEYS!!!!????

Kids are being MURDERED and you are looking for KEYS?

Reminds me of that time that the police took the time to review surveillance videos while people DIED!

If the cops had done there jobs there would have been no reason for parents to try to enter the school. The perp would have been dead or arrested and medical aid would have been rendered.

When seconds count, it only takes police 77 minutes to react.

Uvalde - bunch of cops stand around chatting, making sure concerned citizens don’t interfere with the shooter, and enable further killing.

And

Making sure they get some hand sanitizer so that they don’t catch covid

“Kayce Smith, a Barstool Sports media personality, called the footage of the lingering cops “revolting.”

“so let me get this straight. Uvalde officers were inside within five minutes, stood around for over an hour, made sure to get HAND SANITIZER … while still hearing rounds being fired and the kids screaming,” she tweeted. “What the F— are we doing here?? This is revolting.””

Most cops run towards threats, those particular cops in uvalde however are a disgrace, as are their superiors who ordered them to stand down while kids were being shot and dying. The whole things was one of our nations most disgraceful times, and of course the left do everything In Their power to defend the despicable actions that day. It was almost as bad as obiden leaving Americans stranded in Afghanistan just because he hated Trump so much that he left Afghanistan without a plan or proper support to do so.

Uvalde police handcuffed and pepper-sprayed parents, who urged them to storm the school, including the dad of a murdered girl and a mom-of-two who got free, jumped a fence and rescued her kids herself..

They are still around- remember back to the church shooting I thi k it was where the gunman left the scene, but a citizen ran and got his “weapon of war” rifle and chased him down and ended the maggots life in a shootout. I think it was in Texas? But dont remember now. Also another church shooting where members of the church were murdered, folks ran out screaming, but a few stayed and drew their weapons and ended that maggots life in a shootout too inside the building.

What would you expect? Just like commie trash always defer to “fact checkers” to cover their criminal behavior, the coppers hired a 3rd party to take years to write a report.
Kinda like Fauci gave money to a 3rd party to fund gain-of-function research at Wuhan.

Everyone should sue. Big time. Report is PR toilet paper.

Probably the worst and most shameful thing of the whole,tragedy was the cops outside that detained and arrested parents who tried to run into the school in an effort to save their child from the shooter. They were willing to rush in when the cops were not!

I can’t beleive the left are still defending the actions of that tragedy shameful- victimizing the survivors and their parents even further!

2018 :: Broward County deputies were told not to go into the High School to protect the kids ... the Coral Springs PD ignored the * Cowards in Broward, Florida .. They entered the school / saved lives.

Hero Border Patrol cop rushed to Texas massacre school mid-haircut with borrowed shotgun to rescue 20 kids including his daughter, 8, after wife who teaches there texted him saying: ‘There’s an active shooter. ‘Help. I love you.’.

True enough - there have been situations where citizens, armed citizens, fought evil (I also remember that time where a young man fought an AR-armed mass shooter and killed him - and then the police arrived and killed him). But very few police officers are under the impression that they have any duty to fight to the death to protect the innocent.

All anyone has to do is look at how the police performed at Colombine, Parkland and Uvalde to see how the police - and their unions - have evolved from "protect and serve" to "get back home safely every evening and collect my paycheck".

“Prado also said families who rushed to the school that day compromised efforts to set up a chain of command,”

That’s what Uvalde needed right then, someone to set up a chain of command outside.

One mom hopped the fence, ran into the school and rescued her two sons and all his classmates. The cops in Uvalde were a disgrace.

A Whitewash report.

Never ever ever believe in the efficacy of blue ribbon commissions, expert review panels, or advisory committees. They are always chartered and staffed with reliable members of the deep state to get the desired outcome. One of the desired outcomes, which is alwasy achieved, is to kick the can down the road so that public outrage has cooled, memories have faded and priorities have shifted elsewhere.

Uvalde? What's that, most people would respond.
