[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This would be like a doctor going to school, taking all the necessary courses and ongoing training and then during your heart surgery. Just being like you know what I'm not comfortable with this and walking out of the operating room. Who goes into a profession trains for that profession gets paid to do that profession but then refuses to do the actual work when it comes down to it. [/quote]

And yet we require 18 year olds to register for the selective service.  And they could be called up after high school graduation and shipped to a foreign country against their will and handed the same weapons and ordered into the line of fire. And we allow other 18 year olds to commit to being sent to war, no excuses.  We expect it of soldiers. And if our Army turns tail and runs, that’s very bad as well.   We also expect it of police, many of whom are older and all of whom knew going in this was a possibility.

And here’s something else to think about. Unconscious bias is a powerful thing. If this were a classroom full of UMC white kids, 77 minutes would not have elapsed. [/quote]

About your last comment. The political pressure from parents alone would have had cops in the room much quicker if there were UMC white kids.  Imagine this happening at a private school? Never would 77 minutes elapse.[/quote]

That is the most racist thing you could ever say. You know nothing about Uvalde at all.[/quote]

DP It is not racist to point out racism. If this had happened a Sidwell or Choate do you think the police response would be different- yes. Would the police still be lying about what happened - no. Would meaningful gun restrict be in place- yes. [/quote]
