Yep. |
1 or 2 did after 19 waited around for 40 minutes because they were scared. |
If kids were running around hitting people with sticks, we would take away the sticks. Think about it. |
More than two. Let’s at least give them their due, given they were being told to stand down by their chief. |
Is there new info or more details? Last I heard it was a group of 3-4 that went in with 1-2 being sheriff's deputies. I'll praise whomever deserves praise. |
So they helped a buddy get his kids but handcuffed others? |
| I would like to see a time lapse birds eye diagram of the school with dots representing people that shows who went in, came out, died, and when. I hope someone will create one. |
They were at the door within minutes. Imagine the possibility that some of those children bled out while they waited, and possibly could have been saved had they breached the door earlier. No, they didn't pull the trigger, and the shooter is ultimately responsible. But what they did was indefensible. Do you have kids? Can you imagine the abject terror of the children locked in that room with a gunman for over an hour, begging for help from police? It sickens me to look at my Teo young children and imagine them going through that...or anyone else's kids. |
That is an absolutely lie. There are 9/11 calls within the timeline of the cops standing outside the door from kids inside the classroom pleading for 'police' only to be dead once they breeched it 90 minutes in. He entered classrooms 111/112 at 11:33AM. A female student IN THOSE CLASSROOMS called police at 12:03PM and again at 12:13PM. And a third time at 12:16PM. She reported that at least 9 of her classmates were still alive. A child was on the phone from 12:36PM - 12:47PM. The mass shooter died at 12:58PM. https://apnews.com/article/texas-school-shooting-timeline-6069b0cf01e5f732ef55f9fd0b7109d7 |
Im sure orhers did but in this case we're talking about the assault team led by the off-duty CBP guy. At least one sheriff's deputy and one other CBP joined. I'm not sure how big a group it was but it was small. What's worse is the CBP borrowed the ballistic shield from the Uvalde guys who were too scared. |
Yeah, that's what I said. I'm the PP you quoted. Exactly where did I lie? The officers standing outside the door likely could have saved some of those poor kids. |
The article I read said it was him, 2 officers providing cover, and 2 more helping escort children to safety. He evacuated the wing his child was in, but it doesn't sound like he started with his child's class (whether that's intentional I couldn't say). I remember a line that was something like when he found his child, he gave them a hug and sent them out with the other officers and continued evacuating the other children in that wing. I've heard the stories about some cops going in and getting their children out, but the DPS director said that wasn't true, and I haven't found any articles backing it up. This is the closest I can find to that rumor. Cops going in and getting out individual kids is inexcusable, but what this CBP agent did, leading a team and evacuating a whole wing (even if he picked that wing because his child was there), especially if they'd been told to stand down, I can at least understand it and support it to an extent. Their training was to take out the shooter first, but as much of a clusterf*** as this has been, at least he did something valuable. |
| So the whole tough talkin’, cowboy hat wearin’, lawman thing was a simulacrum the whole time? Plus, why are so many officers in this country so fat? |
Is that why they were standing around outside for 40-60 minutes?

I'm talking to the OP who posted before you - The high likelihood is he did all his murders in the first 15 minutes of entry. |
