Joe Garcia, the husband of Irma Garcia, one of two teachers shot and killed in Uvalde, TX on Tuesday, has reportedly suffered a fatal heart attack.
Joe and Irma were high school sweethearts and married 24 years.
They leave behind four children.

Also the shooter had already shot his grandma. Local schools should have been on lock-down and the SROs should have been ready when he arrived and crashed the truck. Those poor kids died alone hoping someone would come to their rescue.
But even apart from that, the police were right on him, correct? And waited an hour and a half? If that is now established fact, there needs to be some kind of federal investigation, public Congressional hearings, and I’d support - with family consent - blurred face photos of the deceased to show AR damage to the victims. This is insane. I’m not aware of this kind of pussy-footing in the response to active shooter scenes. The Uvalde victims were sacrificed in part BY the law enforcement officers on the scene because of their cowardice. Call it what it is!
You don’t need blurred face photos of the victims. Their faces have been mangled beyond recognition by high velocity automatic gunfire. That’s why they have needed DNA to match each pile of blood and mangled flesh to a set a of parents - they are UNRECOGNIZABLE.
Law enforcement support for an assault weapons ban - at least at the leadership level - has been very strong for decades. They lobbied to have the ban renewed when it was set to expire in 2003. Law enforcement officers know better than anyone the devastating effects of these weapons and that they are no match for them carrying their standard issue 9mm handguns.
People are outraged about the delay in LEOs entering the school. Those kids and teachers were dead within minutes of his entering that classroom. There are articles on the internet by trauma surgeons describing the damage to the human body caused by high velocity bullets from assault weapons. These wounds are nearly always unsurvivable, even with immediate medical attention.
WAKE UP PEOPLE. GET OFF THE INTERNET AND GET INTO THE FIGHT FOR GUN SAFETY LEGISLATION. I live in a state where these weapons are still banned, as well as high capacity magazines. The relief is real. Go out there and get involved and make it happen for your kids, too.

The image should be displayed as vehicle wraps and large signs that you hold on street corners. If the "crazies" can do it to advocate against abortion, so can concerned citizens.
Americans should eat, sleep, breathe their choices and lack of action.
Once again, these parents do not owe us this sh*t. F that.
Why, are you afraid to face reality? Consequence of our inaction.

If nothing comes back from NCIS the purchaser simply gets to walk out with the gun and unlimited ammo in a few minutes in most states.
Then there’s the related issue of ensuring that background checks can be completed by the FBI within three days if a sale is flagged and all relevant mental health and criminal information is accessible.

Mr. Pozner at first tried to engage Mr. Halbig, asking to speak with him in a 2014 email. He received a response, viewed by The Times, from Kelley Watt, one of Mr. Halbig’s fellow hoaxers. “Wolfgang does not wish to speak with you unless you exhume Noah’s body and prove to the world you lost your son.”
Mr. Halbig helped spread a 100-page background check containing Mr. Pozner’s addresses, relatives’ addresses, and Social Security number among the hoaxer community. Mr. Pozner and Noah’s mother, Veronique de la Rosa, live in hiding as a result of harassment.
