Most of the crime in Uvalde is larceny and property crimes. Violent crime rate is below the national average and is mostly assaults.
They weren’t really prepared to be cops who would lay their lives on the line. So they didn’t.
When the far-reached theory suddenly became their reality, they all froze. Every one of them. Bc the theory of dying to save others may be ok, but the reality—not so much.
But yet they had and funded a SWAT team?!!!??

Police have no legal duty to save lives.
You are correct. But it is still hard to accept that they stood around inside the school for over an hour (with at least one LEO checking their phone for score updates or whatever) and did...nothing. I mean, at minimum they could have stepped aside and let parents who wanted to retrieve their kids go in and do so--at their own risk. Regardless of what happens to these specific LEOs (nothing, I'm sure), the overall image of LEOs has forever been tarnished in the eyes of the public.
Please provide evidence the officer in question was checking scores. I’ll be waiting.
So many Chairborne rangers here with zero police training; who want to abolish all guns and have never handed a weapon or been in a combat situation who want to just blame the cops and stomp their feet and offer no viable position of how they would have done different.
So easy yet cowardly to be an armchair after the fact quarterback.
So much to unpack here.
Of all the things that you could have taken issue with regarding the Uvalde incident, the bolded is what annoyed you?
Nobody wants to "abolish all guns" jackass. But keep on parroting NRA/Fox talk points like a good foot soldier for our homegrown fascist movement.
"Blame the cops"?! If there was ever an example of LEO cowardice coupled with incompetence, this surely is the one. Do you know of any job in the world where the person doing the job is never to blame for anything and can't be fired, let alone questioned or criticized if they fail to perform their duties?
"Offer no viable position of how they would have done different"? I can assure you that most parents in the same situation would have rushed in to save their kids--if the LEOs had let them. JFC, wouldn't you?! Doing anything would have been better than what the cops did--which was nothing for over 70 minutes.
