” the stand down order”

That is such a lame excuse for these cops. In this situation you DO THE RIGHT THING and worry about asking for forgiveness later.

I agree with your comment. Based on info I could find, the timeline went something like the following:

11:33 a.m......The suspect enters the schoo1
11:35 a.m......Officers arrive at the school
11:51 a.m......Police sergeant and US Border agents start to arrive
12:03 p.m......Officers assemble in the hallways
12:03 p.m..... Students begin to call 911
12:45 p.m......Border Patrol Tactical Unit disregarded orders to not engage
12:50 p.m......The shooting suspect is killed

If this is accurate, I can come to no other conclusion than yours.

And now Arredondo has a police cordon surrounding his house, protecting his cowardly ass!

What is wrong in Uvalde?

That place stinks more than Joementia’s diapers.
