WE had the "good guys with guns" -- and the DID NOT stop the bad guy with a gun.[/quote]

I'm pretty sure he was stopped (i.e., killed) by a good guy with a gun, but understand your point.[/quote]

Unforunately that "good guy with a gun" took over an hour to arrive - meanwhie the cowards with guns just stood there and played with their d*cks while children died. [/quote]

The "good guys" with guns just stood around doing nothing -- and some were even holding back the parents who had guns (at least one grabbed one at the barber shop he was at, he was a CPB guy off duty).

The point is that arming people doesn't solve all problems b/c sometimes you actually have to have courage PLUS a gun.  Which obviously didn't exist for the first hour.  I'm just totally sick about this.  I can not imagine how raw the rage must be for the parents -- especially of the girl who called 911 (and others) -- little Amerie.  My god.  She's taking mature action to get help over and over -- and no one is coming?  Total cowards.  I would go insane on them if that happened to my 10 yr old. [/quote]

This. Your last paragraph is what is hitting me so hard, thinking about kids waiting and calling for adult help, and the adults knowing and letting them die. The worst betrayal. [/quote]

What really got me was that they said “please”.[/quote]

The little girl (I think it was Amerie) first called with her teacher's phone at 12:03 p.m.   She called about 8 more times over the next FORTY MINUTES... begging and pleading for the police to come.  She was telling them that there was a shooter, that kids were hurt, that some were alive, on and on and on.  Call after call.  She asks them to come.  Almost an hour of calls to 911 by a 10 yr old who is trying to get help and stay alive.  And the 911 operator surely is relaying this to the police.... who do NOTHING.

It's unforgivable.[/quote]

And now she’s dead. My God…..[/quote]

It's a latino school if it was a white school you bet your sweet ass cops wouldn't be wasting time protecting rich white people kids[/quote]

I keep reading this take - I don't think this is accurate.  yes, a predominantly latino school, but I think also a predominantly latino police force.  So this (racism against the kids??) isn't the explanation for the cops' inability to properly/best handle the situation.[/quote]
