    Anyone with the least amount of training or common sense should have known people were dying and gone in.

    It is disgusting so many, who had the training, the tools and the trust of the public to recognize the situation and to react appropriately failed to prevent so many from dying.

    Honestly, I don't think any training would be required, A spine and nut sack would be just fine!

    Why is this still news?
    Because people are still talking about it, investigative reports are coming out, lawsuits are pending, etc.

    I hope we don't forget Uvalde. I hope we keep the lessons learned in our hearts.

    I consider Uvalde like some news stories that, for gigantically large reasons, should never be forgotten, e.g. Epstein didn't kill himself.

    Because there are far too many that WANT us to forget about it.
    It is a very large event that proves the anti gun, anti stand your ground groups are lieing through their teeth when they say we don't need guns. We have law enforcement to protect us. Prime example that not only do the have no lawful obligation or duty to do so, but given the opportunity, many of them will not do so. Especially if it puts them in danger.
    Yes, they do want us to quit talking about. They want it very badly.

    we cant change it let it go.
    Absolutely not!
    I have found that people with your attitude of "it's past, let it go, forget it", are generally the ones that;
    A. Don't want to be blamed for it.
    B. Want to take advantage of it.
    C. Too damned lazy or greedy to want to fix it.
    There is more, but those are the main reasons.
    Water under the bridge.... or a pattern of behavior.

    Kinda reminds you of the losing candidate in the 2016 election saying "what difference does it make?" in regards to the Bengazi disaster

    Yeah. Kind of like " election 2020 is over. You lost. Forget it and move on"......so they can do it again in 2024.....
    Why does someone want you to forget? So they can do it again.

    Some former police officer who use to write articles for a police newsletter or magazine. She is stating that the cops were not at fault or cowards, and that the school administration, and faculty were the major breakdown of why what happened, happened. She almost defends Arredondo's actions that day, in stating his mistake was, treating it as a hostage situation, rather than an active shooter situation. She spends a lot of time criticizing people who weren't there for having an opinion, while at the same time, she's putting forth HER opinion, and she wasn't there either! (Talk about the pot calling the kettle black!)

    IMO, just someone spouting off and more fluff!
    I trust Mike Glover (former Green Beret and defensive trainer) on his opinion in this video. He gives an excellent timeline with video. I didn't go back through it all to see if it had been posted before, so forgive me if it's redundant.

    What he says in the beginning says it all to me.

    It's a long video, but I highly recommend that everyone wanting to know and understand the breakdowns that led to 21 people dyining at the school, then please watch it.

    Thanks @easy rider for linking this video.

    DPS announced five officers are being investigated for their actions at Robb Elementary. Two of the five have been suspended. Also, McCraw has gives guidance that, going forward, an active shooter response remains the tactic until said threat is neutralized.

    School district officials knew this wouldn't be a popular choice for a police officer with her reputation.
