When we arrived in this town one of the of the first people we met was the Vietnamese lady who ran the local cafe. Her husband was the Police Captain. One weekend, after we had been in town a few weeks, they invited us to go shooting with them at the range. The Captain provided several boxes of .45 ACP and 9X19 ammo and a fine time was had by all.
Afterwards we went for a hike on a trail they wanted to show us and he admonished us to “Carry always”. That was not because of crime. There hasn’t been a people shooting on the island in over twenty years. We do have bears and the occasional wolf sighting however.
Anyway, We knew right then that we were going to enjoy living here.
Just how big is the Uvalde police force? How many in 2017, 2019, and 2022?
How could so many conflicting stories emerge so quickly? How was the door which the shooter entered locked so the police had to wait for a key?
With so many police pictured standing around doing nothing, who were the other police breaking windows and removing children in other parts of the school?
This whole thing doesn’t sound like any Texas police force I know or have ever heard of. And yes I am very skeptical of what I have read and heard.
It’s too small of a town for so many contradictions. Oh, and then Royalty from
California flying in..ha ha.. do you know how large the airport is?
Reading this makes your blood boil!
CASTLE ROCK v. GONZALES, (Colorado)
This case in the US Supreme Court established that cops do not have a duty to respond nor a duty to take heroic actions if they do respond.
“The Supreme Court has repeatedly held that the government has only a duty to protect persons who are “in custody,” he pointed out.”
So the criminal gets more protection than a person under attack by a criminal.
WOW!!
This country has completely gone off the rails.
The “thin blue line” is a mirage, a hoax.
“That said, the police are more times than not AFTER the fact.”
This proves that even when they show up on time they can do more harm than good.
If they hadn’t shown up the parents themselves would have rescued more kids and shot the killer.
True, but I think his point was it was going to decrease the likelihood of someone doing something.
“Not only do I not trust the police, any police, I also see them as the enemy as they proved when they actively stopped parents from saving thier children by cuffing and tazering them.”
Now the cops have succeeded into making themselves hated by both the right and the left.
Maybe defunding the police isn’t such a bad idea if all they’re going to do is stand around and protect the criminals. It would save billions. Maybe that money would be better spent providing every one a gun and training.
So what’s a law abiding person to do? Seems like the only rational thing is to take responsibility for your own protection, which may end up in the formation of vigilante groups to protect the neighborhood you live in.
The police are not the good guy with a gun.
Border Patrol guy was....
“Everyone should remember that the police have no duty to protect them.”
So what is the duty of a cop? And why don’t states and localities make protection the most important duty by passing such a law.
The fact that the constitution doesn’t have such a clause, doesn’t mean localities can’t enact it. It leaves it up to the states and municipalities to implement it (or not).
In the military “dereliction of duty” is a “crime”. The police force is a paramilitary organization. It too should be subject to such a discipline.
I agree.

Society will always have law enforcement. The only questions are whose laws are enforced and who does the enforcing.
Why wouldn’t it? I argue it would affect an active shooter scenario most of all.
Maybe you can privately send me what town you live in. I am looking for such a town as you describe. Thanks.
Once cops no longer had a duty to protect, per the supreme court, they became superfulous and should have been dismantled.
I wonder, in Colonial America, in cities like Williamsburg, What size was their police force? Were the majority of citizens owners of firearms and did these citizens deal with criminal actions along with whatever police force theyhad?
It's no secret. I've posted/bragged about it a lot. Help wanted signs everywhere. We own the Pet Center and need help desperately (You wouldn't happen to be a DVM or Vet Tech would you? Perhaps an animal lover with retail skills?)
Petersburg, AK. "Alaska's Little Norway"
There are lots of videos on this channel about Petersburg and the general area of Southeast Alaska.
Petersburg is not for everyone. It's rustic. There are about 2500 souls, ten churches, two bars and one pot shop on an island. No restaurants open at night. Good schools. The hunting and fishing is FANTASTIC!
If you would like to know more I am happy to oblige.
I’ve stated for years that police only serve to enhance funding of the municipality they serve and write notes after an incident occurs. They have no other purpose in today’s society.
As for me and mine, we will trust in the Lord.
I will also trust in my ability to protect and defend me and mine.
