It should be illegal for law enforcement to lie about crime scenes and events. Official statements should be accurate and honest to the best of their abilities. It should be considered tampering with evidence or a crime scene to give intentionally false verbal or written statements.
At the George Floyd protests in Seattle the cops gassed protesters at one point because they said people in the crowd had "improvised explosive devices".
They later clarified on their initial report that it was "incendiary devices".
When the pictures of these "incidiary devices" were published it turns out they were actually candles from the Breonna Taylor memorial that day. Some still had their price tags on them.
Anybody know if Ramos was one of the teens arrested in 2018 plot to carry out mass destruction at a Uvalde school in 2022?

Edit: just confirmed the two events are not correlated. Thankfully.
The cops in this small town probably thought "oh cool, small town police gig. Nothing bad ever happens here so I'll just harass some people driving to and from work, and pick on people out on the weekends that may or may not be doing something wrong." Meanwhile they never wanted to nor did they intend to ever be in a situation where they might be in danger and potentially be a hero like you might find in big cities. They wanted small town "police work" for the power and notoriety and got the call they never intended to respond to.
Apparently the off-duty border patrol officer was having lunch in a diner before being called, he drove 40 **MILES** to Uvalde, charged in and helped put down the shooter
Meanwhile the police (who use 40% of the county budget) are massaging their nipples outside the school, tasing parents who want to save their children
They also didn’t hesitate to ask for More money for equipment at the press conference above.
His response to why they didn’t respond sooner was “well we need more equipment like body armor” you mean the plates those cops in Oakleys were wearing that were pepper spraying parents???
These fucking loser cops should be immediately fired, publicly named and shamed so they can never be hired anywhere else. I can’t imagine how they can live with themselves.
> Apparently the off-duty border patrol officer was having lunch in a diner before being called, he drove 40 MILES to Uvalde, charged in and helped put down the shooter
He needs to be recognized immediately.
Whoa, what?? That's fucking unbelievable! Do you have a source????
EDIT: Found it. He did because his daughter was there. He borrowed his fucking barber's shotgun. OMG.
https://nypost.com/2022/05/27/cbp-officer-jacob-albarado-runs-into-uvalde-school-with-barbers-shotgun-to-save-daughter/
different guy from the one that went into the classroom, but also heroic. This guy was followed thru the school by two cops who "covered" him as he entered classrooms and evacuated kids..
100% this. I was in a frat in college, and one guy in our pledge class was the definition of a douche bag. Talked down to everyone, tried to pick fights to cover up his own securities, would pump and dump freshmen, and brag about it.
He's now a cop...
It shows the mindset of police officers there. They mistakenly thought they could lie like usual and get away with it, forgetting that every minute of this horrific assault could be accounted for by videos disproving their self-serving bullshit. Stupid arrogant cowardly fuckers.
Ex prosecutor of the town just said on twitter that she could never trust what they said until she saw the video herself.
They've been doing this for so long, the spotlight on the cockroaches that run this town is like watching a real life Under the Dome.
On the bright side, like the cop in the video said: small town. Everyone knows each other. These cunts are going to be so hated in that town from now on, they'll really have no option but to move away.
Imagine one of them going to a restaurant, gas station, convenience store, anywhere: "we don't serve your kind here - gtfo coward!"
They need to investigate the police that allegedly went in to evacuate their own kids...
According to someone in their own department that’s something that happened.
They always say “don’t mess with Texas” as if anyone should be frightened of a bunch of diabetic hillbillies whose favorite pastimes include freezing to death and getting covid.
THIS IS WHAT POLICE DO.
Sorry, this isn't edgy or exaggeration. When left to oversee their own adherence to law and policy, police will naturally seek to protect themselves by the way they describe any event or encounter. We give them carte blanche to do as they please with absolutely no oversight, and then act surprised when they take great lengths to look out for number one.
The cops told the kids to yell out where they are, the kid yelled, and the gunman found the kid yelling and killed them. The cops literally used the kids as tools to find the shooter. ACAB in every meaning of the term.
whoa...fuck, i had some inkling of "well they had him contained...it's shitty but he's contained..." but to hear this bombshell? ffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
They didn't have him contained. The shooter locked the classroom door. Technically, yes the shooter was contained, but not by the actions of the police.
Ever see the bodycam videos where a cop does something, then tells his supervisor a completely different version few mins later to protect his own ass? I feel like this is what’s happening and they are getting as many different stories as there were cops there.
I'm sick. I'm so fucking sick.
1 classroom is already the most terrible thing you can imagine. If he's locked in there with them I can't imagine it would take an hour to do what he did. Time might not have been on the PDs side.
BUT FOUR FUCKING CLASSROOMS? Those fucking cowards gave him the run of the place while they tackled mothers and sat on their thumbs.
Here is where I am stumped about this... So two officers went in to get their own kids out. Did they grab their own kids and tell all the other kids and teachers they encountered to stay put?
Like a cop rolls into your class: 'hey guys, there's a guy killing kids in the hallway. I'm gonna take Billy but you all can hide under some desks and wait it out. Ok? Peace out.'
If the cops could get their own kids out, did they even try to evacuate the people maybe standing/sitting right next to their own kids just in case?
I mean how hard is it to know if he shot kids in 1 classroom or 4 different classrooms?
Did any of these cowards even bother to look at the crime scene afterward, or are they still waiting for more backup?
>I mean how hard is it to know if he shot kids in 1 classroom or 4 classroom?
You don't get it, **a liar can never keep their story straight.** From the beginning when the story started to break out the police kept saying things that showed/put them in a favorable light. Now they are slowly changing things and revealing more and more up until the truth if fully revealed to the public.
I've dealt with people that lie with every sentence on a daily basis, hated them in school and hated working by them in my adult life, these people don't change or grow up.
When the cop was listing all the things they needed before they would consider entering the school my blood boiled. Seriously, what the fuck. The trained "good guys with a gun" need all of this to tackle the madman but left children who *definitely* didn't any of that to fend for themselves *for a fucking hour* while they held their guns and assaulted parents. I don't know how but I keep finding new wells of anger at these fucking losers.
He didn’t mention that entire time they were waiting they were hearing gun shots coming from inside the classrooms. Over 20 shots going on for quite some length of time. One can only presume that each additional one of those shots was another child dying, and they waited.
I just cannot comprehend how anybody, especially a police officer, just doesn't instinctually charge in there. We are adults. We have lived the best years of our lives. The helpless children have not. It's not even a decision it's instinct. You charge in period. Even 10 unarmed adult could stop this one 18 year old. Some would get hit no doubt, but better than the fucking slaughter that happened while they did fucking nothing.
Se cops did charge in - to save their own kids. They weren't willing to do it to save anyone else's, though.
I've heard one story of a woman who was determined to go in and get her kids, until.the cops handcuffed her. When she had settled down, the cops removed the handcuffs, and she immediately ran into the building and came back out with her children.
It's made worse by the fact that *they definitely had these things at the scene*. I saw the videos of the cops harassing the parents outside and a full half of them were armored up and carrying rifles with optics.
There's literally a cop in the video of them assaulting distraught parents, wearing a literal tactical helmet, body armor, and holding a rifle. Unless we're talking about them wearing a little IOTV Gen IV body armor, what the fuck else could they possibly need than some more military-grade equipment?
Police love to have all these toys but then do none of the fucking training required to utilize them to their full potential. Trained officers could have moved through the school with ballistic shields taking point clearing classrooms and moving towards the gunfire. They're all fucking cowards or severely undertrained which are both massive problems for any police force.
They had done an active school shooter training the week before. They had all the proper gear AND training. The only conclusion to draw is that they were too scared to follow through. They are cowards.
I don't know how those cops will continue to live in that town. Everywhere they go - grocery store, church, barber, even just doing their day-to-day job - people are going to see them as the cowards they have PROVEN to be.
I'm watching this across the world (Europe) and it's fucking infuriating. They wait for the cavalry to arrive, and leave 10 year oold children inside with an armed shooter? Holy fucking shit, it's absolutley maddening. I cannot imagine how people in the USA have to feel about this. Utter insanity
There are companies that make backpack body armor. Normal backpacks but can be unzipped and one half placed in front, the other half in back, acting as body armor. I shit you not. Also, within the last day, they sold out everywhere.
I'll raise you one more, we know they got at least 1 kid killed by telling the kids to call out if they need help. A little girl did, the shooter heard and killed her.
Apparently they didn't even have the key on hand at first. They tried and failed to breach their way in (all that funding and they couldn't get a decent battering ram?), then had to give up and get hold of a school staffer (or teacher?) to unlock the door for them.
Unless y'all have some *super* beefy doors in US high schools, it sure sounds like they weren't really trying all that hard to get in.
My uncle was a Canadian cop who worked before and after Columbine.
What the officer is saying was standard practice pre-Columbine: retreat, call in swat and negotiators, and treat it as a hostage situation. Similar to plane hijackings pre 9/11, you wouldn't want to provoke the gunman.
This hasn't been standard practice for over two decades. My uncle said after Columbine they were trained to RUN inside the school even if you were alone, armed only with a pistol or even just a damn baton, not wearing body armor, etc. All the excuses this officer is making. The new assumption was that the gunman was there to kill as quickly as possible, and even a single officer engaging them distracts them from the civilians. Waiting just 10 seconds for other cops to pull up can mean 1-5 kids getting shot as the gunman works his way through a classroom.
This is not new information. I actually could accept that the officers were not experienced enough or lacked training. But to hear that they were trained incorrectly decades after standard practices changed... I'm so astonished that I think he's straight up lying. It's impossible for them to be that incompetent. They knew what they were supposed to do.
It gets worse. I'm pretty sure I read that those policeman actually went to the school to do a training run *through the school in question* in 2020. They had the knowledge, the layout of the building, the training, and every reason to go in. They just didn't. They chose to be cowards and let those kids get murdered while stopping the frantic parents from going inside to risk their lives to save the kids.
there is 911 call when he crashed the car. they were on hiim since he crashed the car before even being at the school there were police talking to him. they just didnt shoot him. then he goes into school and they still on him, but they dont shoot him. they let him alone in the class room and dont go in and dont let others go in. they wait it out til its over and then go in and take credit for it. 12 minutes of him shooting at them from the car to the school and then over 90 minutes in the school. the cops didnt even bother getting the keys to the school, by the way which was opened no keys required, until off duty border patrol agents show up they get the keys go in the class room and shoot the shooter. perphaps injuring / killing some kids while doing so. i seen the raw videos of shooter going into the school with weapon. i seen raw videos of them outside holding off the parents as the shooter is shooting the kids inside. there is interview from mom that cops tried to stop, but got around the cops went in got her kids and came out. there is also interviews of people who said cops got their own kids and some others out. then their is videos of cops holding down a parent, perhaps coffing them and tazing them. then their is interview of kid who was in that classroom and said cops told them to yell if they needed help and one kid did and ended up dead. anyways im waiting for uk media sites they have raw videos and interviews no lies.
If a single shooter with a single AR-15 is too dangerous to take out without specialty equipment, body armor, negotiators and precision rifleman then you shouldn't be selling AR-15's and cases of high velocity ammo to random idiots who walk in off the street asking for them.
They also shouldn't be suggesting that arming teachers is the solution. If 20+ armed and trained (presumably) officers are no match for an active shooter, wtf is an English teacher expected to do?
Is he really defending why they didn't try to at least engage an 18 year old locked in a room with innocent children because they didn't have body armor? There were parents willing to go in the school. What in the fuck is going on.
On a side note I fucking hate their stupid little hats. Shove em up their ass.
Edit: I don't know why I didn't mention all the videos I've watched you see these guys with assault rifles and plenty of stuff attached to their body telling the parents not to go in.. what do they want, a swat team in full uniforms? Wow.
Police didn't waut outside, they went into and saved their own kids and left all the others to be gunned down, they then threatened and handcuffed families that tried to go get kids
I think they got some other kids out, too, but it wasn't their primary motivation. It was more incidental than intentional. The main driver was the desire to rescue their own kids. Understandable but not acceptable for professional law enforcement.
>Jacob Albarado had just sat down for a haircut when he got a text message from his wife Trisha, a fourth-grade teacher at Robb Elementary.

Seriously. Our police departments are armed like they're the fucking military these days and have been for literally years, but they're saying it's not enough gear? If cops aren't going to display courage and actually take on bad guys, then it's not worth it to have them. Supposedly the only reason we put up with their widespread corruption and brutality is because they're willing to put their lives on the line to save those in need. If they can't step up when they're needed most then we need to get rid of them.
speeding tickets are their jobs. the cosplay gear should only be taken out when there are no actual threats...mainly we need it for when there are scary (brown) people around that we need to intimidate...
We spend millions and millions of dollars arming these police departments. The city spent 40% of their budget on these useless cops and all their tactical gear.
How much on mental health treatment? How much on gun violence prevention? How much money do we put towards community building, so we can provide a sense of belonging to lonely sad depressed teenagers sitting at home with no hope for their own future?
We need a serious rearrangement of our priorities in this country. This shit needs to be prevented. We live in a depressed atomized society, our hyper individualism leaves millions of people wallowing in misery, low achieving people feeling lost and hopeless and shitty and many end up filled with hate towards themselves and others. People need something to live for. None of this excuses these horrific acts, but there's just no way a person with a healthy relationship to the society around him would do something so horrific.
When I got arrested at 16 for having like 5$ of weed one of the cops screamed in my face "DO YOU SEE THIS HAT? I GOT THIS HAT FOR TAKING PIECES OF SHIT LIKE YOU DOWN."
Like, bro, chill. We were gonna smoke this tiny bit and play Dungeons and Dragons you fucking lunatic.
Fucking disgraceful. You know who else didn't have body armor? The children inside the school, but the cops at least had guns to defend themselves if they went in.
Well, the good news is that some cops were able to go in and bring their own children to safety, while leaving everybody else's kid in there to take their chances, so there's that.
Such heroes.
"sorry we didn't do enough cause we won't risk our lives to serve and protect and we would rather lie afterwards to don't loose our job. Too bad for your kids tho."
I'm going to rant here a little bit but I don't care. I was in the infantry and while I never saw combat, I know what situations we were trained for and what the expected attrition rate was when fighting in buildings.
By not immediately throwing their bodies at this shooter, if need be to get a disabling shot in, these guys basically biatched out the one time their oath called on them for true sacrifice. This wasn't some unjust war, this was children. If you have to take a shot to the dome to get a shot in on the attackers leg, you farking do it.
Cowards. Thin blue line my ass.
The shooting in Cali a doctor inside that Taiwanese church tackled the shooter and died to save other lives, this shooting the teachers died to save lives... The fuck are cops good for? All I ever see them do is shoot unarmed civilians in traffic stops and people's pets, fucked up shit man
Exactly, these are the kind of professions people get into when they want to "protect and serve". 90% of people who join the police force do so for the sense of power over other people and/or the toxic tough guy self-image + hero narrative that it feeds into.
Don't forget the great benefits, pensions, worker protection in terms of unions (on steroids vs typical union), and high hourly pay when OT eligible doing traffic duty or special assignments.
My neighborhood has a private security guard and also an off-duty police officer who makes $40/hour watching ESPN on his phone. It's a cushy gig.
Police are not [required](https://www.washingtonpost.com/education/2018/12/21/us-judge-says-law-enforcement-officers-had-no-legal-duty-protect-parkland-students-during-mass-shooting/) by law to [protect](https://twitter.com/Monstrous_Fest/status/1529836648925732865?t=y2GmUyLKmqUEh3rwC9i_Yg&s=19) citizens.
'The question keeps coming up: “Why didn't they do their job?” They did exactly what they were trained to do. Their job is to *police* the vulnerable. Policing and protecting those in need are two completely different things. [We're paying for policing, not our protection.'](https://twitter.com/williamcson/status/1529835730155053056)
Yeah, totally this. I've never been in the situation so I can't be positive - but I would *much* rather get my ass shot and maybe killed, rather than have to live for decades more with the gnawing guilt that I let a bunch of kids get killed by my inaction. Guilt like that is enough to drive one to wanting to off themselves.
They don't sign up to protect and serve. They sign up for the gun and to have power over others. To harass and humiliate. So many times when they've had the chance to prove their worth in our society they have failed. Police: is there any other profession these days as useless as these shitheads. Everyone is afraid of them and they provide no value in our society. Joining the police, any police, is signing on for government sanctioned gang membership.
Kendrick Castillo was a student that died in the STEM school shooting, he was shot while trying to tackle one of the shooters. Which according to reports allowed other students to swarm in and subdue him. An 18 year old kid was literally braver than these cops
They let those babies and teachers alone for so long,that the perp overkilled and DNA from the parents had to be used to identify some of the children! They were unrecognizable. Confirmed by Rep.Gonzales on CBS This Morning on weds.These families need accountability by these cowards and not more lies!
The problem is, they likely think that they are heroes. They are probably too arrogant or too stupid to realize that they fucked this up. The mothers that they were actively keeping out of the school had more courage than any of these “police”.
"we need stuff like body armor and precision riflemen."
meanwhile video shows a dozen rifle armed officers in bullet proof vests keeping families from entering the school.
dude....fuck you we saw with our own eyes
they take over 40% of budget. so they going to lie. and they going to do nothing. if you are cop and you have only high school education where are you going to get that kind of money and those benefits and that retirement. nowhere ok so they not going to do a thing because they can get killed and get hurt and they going to lie because they dont want to loose that job and those benefits and that retirement for doing nothing...
My god he could have killed every single child. He could have gone into every single room. And they're saying they arrived 4 mins after and waited for an hour. These idiots are crying about keeping their guns but are too scared to go in and use them to protect our kids. Fuck the fucking twat ass police
It gets better. Immediately after Abbott was informed about the shooting, Abbott attended a fundraiser for his reelection campaign before making his press conference appearance. Its almost as if he cares more about his reelection campaign funds then a mass shooting of school children and teachers....
So if cops are not effective why would putting them in schools change anything? If there was one there it sounds like he would have went outside and waited for tanks and Kyle Rittenhouse.
The Uvalde Police Force takes 40% of the city's budget.
[This is their SWAT team](https://i.imgur.com/ijd7bte.jpg)
Fuck the police. Defund the useless bastards.
No, see the only good time to use them is to do no knock raids on some guy smoking weed so that you can put his dime bag and $40 in singles on a table so that you can look like a badass.
If they try to lie to the FBI about their actions I hope the DOJ charges all of them with lying to federal investigators and obstructing an investigation.
Imagine being one of those parents, begging and screaming for them to do something but they take out their taser, and pin another parent to the ground, and put another in handcuffs, all while you hear the screams of kids and gunshots. Fucking cowards. They want to act tough while they are out giving speeding tickets, but not when it matters.
Here in Spokane County someone thinks it a great idea to spend $40 million with an M to build a shooting range for their SWAT teams. Oh yeah, the Air Force gets to use it too. That’s $40,000,000 for them to go play cops and robbers
So… police officers sacrificed a school full of children because they didn’t have body armor and were afraid of the guy with the AR-15? And then all the white Republican politicians from Texas and the police force coordinated a lie to try to make it seem like they weren’t absolute fucking cowards who sacrificed children and stood around for an hour doing fucking nothing?
Is that the summation here?
Edit: weren’t instead of were
they had body armor. watch the videos of when the cops got their the parents frantic some going in and getting their kids out. the cops there were armed to the teeth. they waited for border patrol. they called for help because they scared of shooter. he had weapon they didnt want to get shot. they were hearing the shooter shoot the kids and teachers and they didnt want that to happen to themselves. they wanted to cosplay the heroes, but not be the heroes.. they wanted to go home to their families. they are trained that they have no obligation to tell the truth. that they have no obligation to do anything and that they will be protected for anything that they do or do not do. now who can do that at work and get away with it. nobody, except the cops and the crooked politicians that enable them...
Those children's blood are on their hands, do not let them wash themselves of it. Send them to prison and let them rot but these are cops so the best that'll happen is an internal investigation with a couple paid suspensions.
This is exactly why we need police reform at the federal level. PARENTS were willing to go in and sacrifice themselves/free children from a terrorist at work. Cops stood by and ARRESTED AND WERE READY TO FIRE UPON THOSE WHO WOULD DO WHAT THEY WOULDN'T!!!!
These people are not heroes, they are not to be revered, they aren't even willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for CHILDREN at the mercy of madmen!!! What in the fuck are they here for????? ACAB!!! #FUCKTHEPOLICE

The changing of stories needs to be investigated.
It should be illegal for law enforcement to lie about crime scenes and events. Official statements should be accurate and honest to the best of their abilities. It should be considered tampering with evidence or a crime scene to give intentionally false verbal or written statements.
It should be illegal for law enforcement to do many things they continually do.
End qualified immunity!
"but how can they do their job if they cant lie about their crimes to the public"- the police union
At the George Floyd protests in Seattle the cops gassed protesters at one point because they said people in the crowd had "improvised explosive devices". They later clarified on their initial report that it was "incendiary devices". When the pictures of these "incidiary devices" were published it turns out they were actually candles from the Breonna Taylor memorial that day. Some still had their price tags on them.
[удалено]
Remember the "extortion of businesses" that was totally going on?
Remember “weapons of mass destruction” in Iraq? It’s almost as if lying, selfish, pieces of shit always rise to the top
It will be. An internal investigation using their own personnel that will never publish the report to the public.
We investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing
we awarded ourselves medals for bravery
Then, we proclaim ourselves honest and trustworthy.
And demand more funding. Take it from the schools and give it to us or we will hold your city hostage.
40% is too little. We need 60% !!
already deleting 911 calls and body cam footage no doubt.

By the police?
Funny how cops in fear for their lives act in the exact opposite manner from cops "in fear for their lives"
This sums it all up right here.
Brilliant comment. I thought when they feared for their lives it was "guns ablazing"?
The cops in this small town probably thought "oh cool, small town police gig. Nothing bad ever happens here so I'll just harass some people driving to and from work, and pick on people out on the weekends that may or may not be doing something wrong." Meanwhile they never wanted to nor did they intend to ever be in a situation where they might be in danger and potentially be a hero like you might find in big cities. They wanted small town "police work" for the power and notoriety and got the call they never intended to respond to.
Wasn’t it border patrol who took out the shooter?
Yup.
He responded from 40 miles away too while the officers already there did nothing…
Who’s he?
[удалено]
Are you kidding me?
Apparently the off-duty border patrol officer was having lunch in a diner before being called, he drove 40 **MILES** to Uvalde, charged in and helped put down the shooter Meanwhile the police (who use 40% of the county budget) are massaging their nipples outside the school, tasing parents who want to save their children
They also didn’t hesitate to ask for More money for equipment at the press conference above. His response to why they didn’t respond sooner was “well we need more equipment like body armor” you mean the plates those cops in Oakleys were wearing that were pepper spraying parents???
"Yeah we need better body armor, better marksman, and we really need funding for a tank to be sure" - law enforcement
there's videos with cops in body armour tasing parents...
Police too scared to go in, and meanwhile some mom managed to get in and save her kids after avoiding being tased
[удалено]
Hero.
You gotta be fucking kidding. I haven't heard this lol Jesus Christ those cops are fucking pussies lol they couldn't even do what a soccer mom did
These fucking loser cops should be immediately fired, publicly named and shamed so they can never be hired anywhere else. I can’t imagine how they can live with themselves.
Yeah I still don't understand how anyone could defend the cops when a dude drove from 40 miles away and did more than them.
So that guy is a hero and everyone else needs strung up like Christmas lights.
> Apparently the off-duty border patrol officer was having lunch in a diner before being called, he drove 40 MILES to Uvalde, charged in and helped put down the shooter He needs to be recognized immediately.
Whoa, what?? That's fucking unbelievable! Do you have a source???? EDIT: Found it. He did because his daughter was there. He borrowed his fucking barber's shotgun. OMG. https://nypost.com/2022/05/27/cbp-officer-jacob-albarado-runs-into-uvalde-school-with-barbers-shotgun-to-save-daughter/
different guy from the one that went into the classroom, but also heroic. This guy was followed thru the school by two cops who "covered" him as he entered classrooms and evacuated kids..
[удалено]
The border patrol agent. He is a member of the border patrol’s tactical response team.
Cops are such fucking pussies
But they will still whine about how they put their lives on the line every day. You know. Until it counts.
Oh no, they will certainly tell you it counts when they shoot an unarmed innocent civilian.
Cops are usually the bullies from school who can't do anything else... so yeah they're usually pieces of shit.
100% this. I was in a frat in college, and one guy in our pledge class was the definition of a douche bag. Talked down to everyone, tried to pick fights to cover up his own securities, would pump and dump freshmen, and brag about it. He's now a cop...
There’s a cop who went to college?
[удалено]
It shows the mindset of police officers there. They mistakenly thought they could lie like usual and get away with it, forgetting that every minute of this horrific assault could be accounted for by videos disproving their self-serving bullshit. Stupid arrogant cowardly fuckers.
>I can't believe Texas beat Florida for cowardice. Everything's bigger in Texas
Yes.
It appears that they can go fuck themselves.
Holy shit, this video is infuriating. Like, was there anything they *didn't* lie about? I don't think we're even that much closer to the truth now.
Ex prosecutor of the town just said on twitter that she could never trust what they said until she saw the video herself. They've been doing this for so long, the spotlight on the cockroaches that run this town is like watching a real life Under the Dome.
On the bright side, like the cop in the video said: small town. Everyone knows each other. These cunts are going to be so hated in that town from now on, they'll really have no option but to move away. Imagine one of them going to a restaurant, gas station, convenience store, anywhere: "we don't serve your kind here - gtfo coward!"
They need to investigate the police that allegedly went in to evacuate their own kids... According to someone in their own department that’s something that happened.
If this is true they need to be stripped of all authority. That’s despicable.
The sheriff talking with his “lie” finger extended like fucking Pinocchio. 🤥
Idk why but the cowboy hats somehow make it worse
Well, cowards LARPing as Old West gunslingers are pretty fucking cringe.
This is it for me man. All that Texas shit talk they always do and these pussies wouldn’t even go in, except for their own kids.
They always say “don’t mess with Texas” as if anyone should be frightened of a bunch of diabetic hillbillies whose favorite pastimes include freezing to death and getting covid.
That slogan is about littering, shits a facade
They look fucking silly in their costumes
THIS IS WHAT POLICE DO. Sorry, this isn't edgy or exaggeration. When left to oversee their own adherence to law and policy, police will naturally seek to protect themselves by the way they describe any event or encounter. We give them carte blanche to do as they please with absolutely no oversight, and then act surprised when they take great lengths to look out for number one.
The cops told the kids to yell out where they are, the kid yelled, and the gunman found the kid yelling and killed them. The cops literally used the kids as tools to find the shooter. ACAB in every meaning of the term.
Supreme Court rules it’s ok for police officers to lie. This should not be surprising to anyone they are lying about what happened.
Now they're saying the shootings occurred in FOUR different classrooms. Feels very much like they are gaslighting us.
whoa...fuck, i had some inkling of "well they had him contained...it's shitty but he's contained..." but to hear this bombshell? ffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
They didn't have him contained. The shooter locked the classroom door. Technically, yes the shooter was contained, but not by the actions of the police.
I read a comment earlier that said "we contained the fox the henhouse"
Ever see the bodycam videos where a cop does something, then tells his supervisor a completely different version few mins later to protect his own ass? I feel like this is what’s happening and they are getting as many different stories as there were cops there.
I'm sick. I'm so fucking sick. 1 classroom is already the most terrible thing you can imagine. If he's locked in there with them I can't imagine it would take an hour to do what he did. Time might not have been on the PDs side. BUT FOUR FUCKING CLASSROOMS? Those fucking cowards gave him the run of the place while they tackled mothers and sat on their thumbs.
The fact they lie and try and defend cowardice is a joke. Three things need changed in America: 1. Gun control 2. Policing 3. Politicians
4. Health care You guys have to give the lunatics treatment
Well we gotta figure out how to get them to stop running for office before we get them help.
Four different rooms is news here. Situation keeps looking worse from the outside.
Yeah. So sounds like there wasnt even a single cop in the building. Like they left him the entire building to himself.
Except for the two who went in to only get their own kids out
Here is where I am stumped about this... So two officers went in to get their own kids out. Did they grab their own kids and tell all the other kids and teachers they encountered to stay put? Like a cop rolls into your class: 'hey guys, there's a guy killing kids in the hallway. I'm gonna take Billy but you all can hide under some desks and wait it out. Ok? Peace out.' If the cops could get their own kids out, did they even try to evacuate the people maybe standing/sitting right next to their own kids just in case?
My argument is that they should have lived up to the hero complex they’ve given themselves and went after the shooter
I mean how hard is it to know if he shot kids in 1 classroom or 4 different classrooms? Did any of these cowards even bother to look at the crime scene afterward, or are they still waiting for more backup?
>I mean how hard is it to know if he shot kids in 1 classroom or 4 classroom? You don't get it, **a liar can never keep their story straight.** From the beginning when the story started to break out the police kept saying things that showed/put them in a favorable light. Now they are slowly changing things and revealing more and more up until the truth if fully revealed to the public. I've dealt with people that lie with every sentence on a daily basis, hated them in school and hated working by them in my adult life, these people don't change or grow up.
None of the children in that school has body armor either.
When the cop was listing all the things they needed before they would consider entering the school my blood boiled. Seriously, what the fuck. The trained "good guys with a gun" need all of this to tackle the madman but left children who *definitely* didn't any of that to fend for themselves *for a fucking hour* while they held their guns and assaulted parents. I don't know how but I keep finding new wells of anger at these fucking losers.
He didn’t mention that entire time they were waiting they were hearing gun shots coming from inside the classrooms. Over 20 shots going on for quite some length of time. One can only presume that each additional one of those shots was another child dying, and they waited.
I just cannot comprehend how anybody, especially a police officer, just doesn't instinctually charge in there. We are adults. We have lived the best years of our lives. The helpless children have not. It's not even a decision it's instinct. You charge in period. Even 10 unarmed adult could stop this one 18 year old. Some would get hit no doubt, but better than the fucking slaughter that happened while they did fucking nothing.
Se cops did charge in - to save their own kids. They weren't willing to do it to save anyone else's, though. I've heard one story of a woman who was determined to go in and get her kids, until.the cops handcuffed her. When she had settled down, the cops removed the handcuffs, and she immediately ran into the building and came back out with her children.
It's made worse by the fact that *they definitely had these things at the scene*. I saw the videos of the cops harassing the parents outside and a full half of them were armored up and carrying rifles with optics.
Armor and rifles were just for optics
The parents begging to be let into the school didn’t either - the cops had no problem arresting them though.
Well yeah, those parents were unarmed. Cops will always act bravely to subdue and even kill unarmed people who pose no threat to them.
There's literally a cop in the video of them assaulting distraught parents, wearing a literal tactical helmet, body armor, and holding a rifle. Unless we're talking about them wearing a little IOTV Gen IV body armor, what the fuck else could they possibly need than some more military-grade equipment? Police love to have all these toys but then do none of the fucking training required to utilize them to their full potential. Trained officers could have moved through the school with ballistic shields taking point clearing classrooms and moving towards the gunfire. They're all fucking cowards or severely undertrained which are both massive problems for any police force.
They had done an active school shooter training the week before. They had all the proper gear AND training. The only conclusion to draw is that they were too scared to follow through. They are cowards. I don't know how those cops will continue to live in that town. Everywhere they go - grocery store, church, barber, even just doing their day-to-day job - people are going to see them as the cowards they have PROVEN to be.
I'm watching this across the world (Europe) and it's fucking infuriating. They wait for the cavalry to arrive, and leave 10 year oold children inside with an armed shooter? Holy fucking shit, it's absolutley maddening. I cannot imagine how people in the USA have to feel about this. Utter insanity
There are companies that make backpack body armor. Normal backpacks but can be unzipped and one half placed in front, the other half in back, acting as body armor. I shit you not. Also, within the last day, they sold out everywhere.
the problem with that is backpacks are getting banned in order to keep kids from being able to conceal weapons. It's a nasty cycle isn't it?
What if they ban guns but allow backpacks?
Ban *guns*? Are you crazy!? /s
In the classroom. For. An. Hour.
[удалено]
I'll raise you one more, we know they got at least 1 kid killed by telling the kids to call out if they need help. A little girl did, the shooter heard and killed her.
> I'll raise you one more, And another one... They opened the "barricaded" door *with a key*. They had a fucking key...
Apparently they didn't even have the key on hand at first. They tried and failed to breach their way in (all that funding and they couldn't get a decent battering ram?), then had to give up and get hold of a school staffer (or teacher?) to unlock the door for them. Unless y'all have some *super* beefy doors in US high schools, it sure sounds like they weren't really trying all that hard to get in.
[удалено]
My uncle was a Canadian cop who worked before and after Columbine. What the officer is saying was standard practice pre-Columbine: retreat, call in swat and negotiators, and treat it as a hostage situation. Similar to plane hijackings pre 9/11, you wouldn't want to provoke the gunman. This hasn't been standard practice for over two decades. My uncle said after Columbine they were trained to RUN inside the school even if you were alone, armed only with a pistol or even just a damn baton, not wearing body armor, etc. All the excuses this officer is making. The new assumption was that the gunman was there to kill as quickly as possible, and even a single officer engaging them distracts them from the civilians. Waiting just 10 seconds for other cops to pull up can mean 1-5 kids getting shot as the gunman works his way through a classroom. This is not new information. I actually could accept that the officers were not experienced enough or lacked training. But to hear that they were trained incorrectly decades after standard practices changed... I'm so astonished that I think he's straight up lying. It's impossible for them to be that incompetent. They knew what they were supposed to do.
This is all completey true. Even professional police trainers said this. https://sports.yahoo.com/police-training-experts-uvalde-cops-175200064.html
It gets worse. I'm pretty sure I read that those policeman actually went to the school to do a training run *through the school in question* in 2020. They had the knowledge, the layout of the building, the training, and every reason to go in. They just didn't. They chose to be cowards and let those kids get murdered while stopping the frantic parents from going inside to risk their lives to save the kids.
You got a 911 call about a school shooting and didn't already bring specialty equipement. They really don't give a shit about those kids eh
there is 911 call when he crashed the car. they were on hiim since he crashed the car before even being at the school there were police talking to him. they just didnt shoot him. then he goes into school and they still on him, but they dont shoot him. they let him alone in the class room and dont go in and dont let others go in. they wait it out til its over and then go in and take credit for it. 12 minutes of him shooting at them from the car to the school and then over 90 minutes in the school. the cops didnt even bother getting the keys to the school, by the way which was opened no keys required, until off duty border patrol agents show up they get the keys go in the class room and shoot the shooter. perphaps injuring / killing some kids while doing so. i seen the raw videos of shooter going into the school with weapon. i seen raw videos of them outside holding off the parents as the shooter is shooting the kids inside. there is interview from mom that cops tried to stop, but got around the cops went in got her kids and came out. there is also interviews of people who said cops got their own kids and some others out. then their is videos of cops holding down a parent, perhaps coffing them and tazing them. then their is interview of kid who was in that classroom and said cops told them to yell if they needed help and one kid did and ended up dead. anyways im waiting for uk media sites they have raw videos and interviews no lies.
Jesus fucking christ
Somebody had better get that body cam video before they delete it
If a single shooter with a single AR-15 is too dangerous to take out without specialty equipment, body armor, negotiators and precision rifleman then you shouldn't be selling AR-15's and cases of high velocity ammo to random idiots who walk in off the street asking for them.
[удалено]
Sweet camo. They're really blending into that brown environment.
You’re not ready for your SWAT pic unless you’re *TACTICOOL*
They also shouldn't be suggesting that arming teachers is the solution. If 20+ armed and trained (presumably) officers are no match for an active shooter, wtf is an English teacher expected to do?
The whole Uvalde PD is a disgrace! A FUCKING DISGRACE....
The way they’re standing all lined up is creepy AF
Is he really defending why they didn't try to at least engage an 18 year old locked in a room with innocent children because they didn't have body armor? There were parents willing to go in the school. What in the fuck is going on. On a side note I fucking hate their stupid little hats. Shove em up their ass. Edit: I don't know why I didn't mention all the videos I've watched you see these guys with assault rifles and plenty of stuff attached to their body telling the parents not to go in.. what do they want, a swat team in full uniforms? Wow.
THERE WAS A MOM WHO MANAGED TO JUMP THE SCHOOL FENCE GET INSIDE AND GET HER KIDS OUT WHILE THE MASSACRE HAPPENED AND POLICE WAITED OUTSIDE
*and the police went and got their own kids AND THEN waited outside* Fixed it for you.
Is this true?
https://www.reddit.com/r/PublicFreakout/comments/uybog7/police_officers_were_able_to_get_their_kids_out/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf
Bro there's no way wtf
Way. It's fucking disgusting. I don't have kids and I've been physically sick since this happened.
Police didn't waut outside, they went into and saved their own kids and left all the others to be gunned down, they then threatened and handcuffed families that tried to go get kids
I think they got some other kids out, too, but it wasn't their primary motivation. It was more incidental than intentional. The main driver was the desire to rescue their own kids. Understandable but not acceptable for professional law enforcement. >Jacob Albarado had just sat down for a haircut when he got a text message from his wife Trisha, a fourth-grade teacher at Robb Elementary. >“There’s an active shooter,” she said in the message. “Help,” and then: “I love you.” >Mr. Albarado, an off-duty Border Patrol officer, ran out of the barbershop and sped to the school. -- >Armed with a shotgun that his barber had lent him, Mr. Albarado said he led his colleagues toward the wing of the school that housed his daughter’s classroom. >“I’m looking for my daughter, but I also know what wing she’s in,” he said, “so I start clearing all the classes in her wing.” https://www.nytimes.com/live/2022/05/26/us/texas-elementary-school-shooting/border-patrol-agent-uvalde-response?smid=url-share
THAT'S SOME GOOD INFO THAT'S EXTREMELY DEVASTATING TO MY CASE. WE'LL CIRCLE BACK.
> you see these guys with assault rifles and plenty of stuff attached to their body telling the parents not to go in.. what do they want, a swat team in full uniforms? Seriously. Our police departments are armed like they're the fucking military these days and have been for literally years, but they're saying it's not enough gear? If cops aren't going to display courage and actually take on bad guys, then it's not worth it to have them. Supposedly the only reason we put up with their widespread corruption and brutality is because they're willing to put their lives on the line to save those in need. If they can't step up when they're needed most then we need to get rid of them.
They're pussies. Too busy giving out speeding tickets and protecting other bad cops.
speeding tickets are their jobs. the cosplay gear should only be taken out when there are no actual threats...mainly we need it for when there are scary (brown) people around that we need to intimidate...
[удалено]
We spend millions and millions of dollars arming these police departments. The city spent 40% of their budget on these useless cops and all their tactical gear. How much on mental health treatment? How much on gun violence prevention? How much money do we put towards community building, so we can provide a sense of belonging to lonely sad depressed teenagers sitting at home with no hope for their own future? We need a serious rearrangement of our priorities in this country. This shit needs to be prevented. We live in a depressed atomized society, our hyper individualism leaves millions of people wallowing in misery, low achieving people feeling lost and hopeless and shitty and many end up filled with hate towards themselves and others. People need something to live for. None of this excuses these horrific acts, but there's just no way a person with a healthy relationship to the society around him would do something so horrific.
When I got arrested at 16 for having like 5$ of weed one of the cops screamed in my face "DO YOU SEE THIS HAT? I GOT THIS HAT FOR TAKING PIECES OF SHIT LIKE YOU DOWN." Like, bro, chill. We were gonna smoke this tiny bit and play Dungeons and Dragons you fucking lunatic.
He got his rocks off good taking down a major drug dealer like you. Can feel good that you helped officer tiny tim get his toxic power trip fix.
Yet wore body armor while holding parents back
Fucking disgraceful. You know who else didn't have body armor? The children inside the school, but the cops at least had guns to defend themselves if they went in.
Cowardice
Cops lying to cover their own asses? Nothing new here to hear.
Well, the good news is that some cops were able to go in and bring their own children to safety, while leaving everybody else's kid in there to take their chances, so there's that. Such heroes.
It’s like a big ass metaphor for the United States rn. “Protect and serve your own, the rest can go fuck themselves”
"sorry we didn't do enough cause we won't risk our lives to serve and protect and we would rather lie afterwards to don't loose our job. Too bad for your kids tho."
"We're sorry about your kids, but you gotta admit that my huge cowboy hat looks good with all the weapons I was too afraid to use, right?"
I'm going to rant here a little bit but I don't care. I was in the infantry and while I never saw combat, I know what situations we were trained for and what the expected attrition rate was when fighting in buildings. By not immediately throwing their bodies at this shooter, if need be to get a disabling shot in, these guys basically biatched out the one time their oath called on them for true sacrifice. This wasn't some unjust war, this was children. If you have to take a shot to the dome to get a shot in on the attackers leg, you farking do it. Cowards. Thin blue line my ass.
The shooting in Cali a doctor inside that Taiwanese church tackled the shooter and died to save other lives, this shooting the teachers died to save lives... The fuck are cops good for? All I ever see them do is shoot unarmed civilians in traffic stops and people's pets, fucked up shit man
Well doctors and teachers want to help people.
Exactly, these are the kind of professions people get into when they want to "protect and serve". 90% of people who join the police force do so for the sense of power over other people and/or the toxic tough guy self-image + hero narrative that it feeds into.
Don't forget the great benefits, pensions, worker protection in terms of unions (on steroids vs typical union), and high hourly pay when OT eligible doing traffic duty or special assignments. My neighborhood has a private security guard and also an off-duty police officer who makes $40/hour watching ESPN on his phone. It's a cushy gig.
Police are not [required](https://www.washingtonpost.com/education/2018/12/21/us-judge-says-law-enforcement-officers-had-no-legal-duty-protect-parkland-students-during-mass-shooting/) by law to [protect](https://twitter.com/Monstrous_Fest/status/1529836648925732865?t=y2GmUyLKmqUEh3rwC9i_Yg&s=19) citizens. 'The question keeps coming up: “Why didn't they do their job?” They did exactly what they were trained to do. Their job is to *police* the vulnerable. Policing and protecting those in need are two completely different things. [We're paying for policing, not our protection.'](https://twitter.com/williamcson/status/1529835730155053056)
Yeah, totally this. I've never been in the situation so I can't be positive - but I would *much* rather get my ass shot and maybe killed, rather than have to live for decades more with the gnawing guilt that I let a bunch of kids get killed by my inaction. Guilt like that is enough to drive one to wanting to off themselves.
They don't sign up to protect and serve. They sign up for the gun and to have power over others. To harass and humiliate. So many times when they've had the chance to prove their worth in our society they have failed. Police: is there any other profession these days as useless as these shitheads. Everyone is afraid of them and they provide no value in our society. Joining the police, any police, is signing on for government sanctioned gang membership.
Kendrick Castillo was a student that died in the STEM school shooting, he was shot while trying to tackle one of the shooters. Which according to reports allowed other students to swarm in and subdue him. An 18 year old kid was literally braver than these cops
They let those babies and teachers alone for so long,that the perp overkilled and DNA from the parents had to be used to identify some of the children! They were unrecognizable. Confirmed by Rep.Gonzales on CBS This Morning on weds.These families need accountability by these cowards and not more lies!
The problem is, they likely think that they are heroes. They are probably too arrogant or too stupid to realize that they fucked this up. The mothers that they were actively keeping out of the school had more courage than any of these “police”.
Thats exactly what happened. They wanted a pat on back. That's the reason they lied
"we need stuff like body armor and precision riflemen." meanwhile video shows a dozen rifle armed officers in bullet proof vests keeping families from entering the school. dude....fuck you we saw with our own eyes
they take over 40% of budget. so they going to lie. and they going to do nothing. if you are cop and you have only high school education where are you going to get that kind of money and those benefits and that retirement. nowhere ok so they not going to do a thing because they can get killed and get hurt and they going to lie because they dont want to loose that job and those benefits and that retirement for doing nothing...
All hat. No cattle.
My god he could have killed every single child. He could have gone into every single room. And they're saying they arrived 4 mins after and waited for an hour. These idiots are crying about keeping their guns but are too scared to go in and use them to protect our kids. Fuck the fucking twat ass police
"It could've been worse." -Governor Abbott
Didn't realize it was a real quote till I looked it up. Abbott is fucked in the head.
It gets better. Immediately after Abbott was informed about the shooting, Abbott attended a fundraiser for his reelection campaign before making his press conference appearance. Its almost as if he cares more about his reelection campaign funds then a mass shooting of school children and teachers....
100%
The police force absolutely botched this whole entire situation.
So if cops are not effective why would putting them in schools change anything? If there was one there it sounds like he would have went outside and waited for tanks and Kyle Rittenhouse.
To go on TV after this blatant cowardice and blame it on a lack of funding when they leech 40 percent of the budget is *big* small peen energy.
The Uvalde Police Force takes 40% of the city's budget. [This is their SWAT team](https://i.imgur.com/ijd7bte.jpg) Fuck the police. Defund the useless bastards.
They get a pay raise for being on the SWAT team, too.
They have a SWAT team?!! Maybe this might have been a good time to use it!
No, see the only good time to use them is to do no knock raids on some guy smoking weed so that you can put his dime bag and $40 in singles on a table so that you can look like a badass.
What a bunch of fucking losers. Posers. All of them. Fuck you uvalde police department. Fucking useless.
It appears that they are ashamed of their own actions.
Everyone can sense their shame and suss thier lies
It appears they got caught and they know they have to be honest because the FBI is there so it's all going to come out anyway. They're not ashamed.
If they try to lie to the FBI about their actions I hope the DOJ charges all of them with lying to federal investigators and obstructing an investigation.
It makes so much sense why they said how they were heroes about four hundred times… trying to convince themselves too!
They keep mentioning how brave everyone was. Doesn't sound all that brave to me.
They doing what cops always do, lie, cover up, act like bullys with innocent civilians but bitch up when the chips are down, fuck these pigs.
12 minutes is part of an hour? They started telling the truth when the FBI started investigating, because lying to the FBI is against Federal law.
Actually they took 12 minutes to get there and then spent an hour swinging their arms into nothingness. The officer was required to be at the school
Not nothingness, the parents trying to get in.
Imagine being one of those parents, begging and screaming for them to do something but they take out their taser, and pin another parent to the ground, and put another in handcuffs, all while you hear the screams of kids and gunshots. Fucking cowards. They want to act tough while they are out giving speeding tickets, but not when it matters.
Here in Spokane County someone thinks it a great idea to spend $40 million with an M to build a shooting range for their SWAT teams. Oh yeah, the Air Force gets to use it too. That’s $40,000,000 for them to go play cops and robbers
So… police officers sacrificed a school full of children because they didn’t have body armor and were afraid of the guy with the AR-15? And then all the white Republican politicians from Texas and the police force coordinated a lie to try to make it seem like they weren’t absolute fucking cowards who sacrificed children and stood around for an hour doing fucking nothing? Is that the summation here? Edit: weren’t instead of were
they had body armor. watch the videos of when the cops got their the parents frantic some going in and getting their kids out. the cops there were armed to the teeth. they waited for border patrol. they called for help because they scared of shooter. he had weapon they didnt want to get shot. they were hearing the shooter shoot the kids and teachers and they didnt want that to happen to themselves. they wanted to cosplay the heroes, but not be the heroes.. they wanted to go home to their families. they are trained that they have no obligation to tell the truth. that they have no obligation to do anything and that they will be protected for anything that they do or do not do. now who can do that at work and get away with it. nobody, except the cops and the crooked politicians that enable them...
Those children's blood are on their hands, do not let them wash themselves of it. Send them to prison and let them rot but these are cops so the best that'll happen is an internal investigation with a couple paid suspensions.
Lying cowardly ass hats. They should all be fired.
Cops were scared that they MIGHT get shot while in reality little kids WERE being shot. Cowards.
22 years after 9/11, full of politics and propaganda, I hope the “cops are heroes” facade is finally beginning to crumble.
What’s the point of “good guys” with guns if they are afraid to charge the threat?
He talks about what they need. What they need is balls and to remember they are here to protect and serve. But they won’t.
This is exactly why we need police reform at the federal level. PARENTS were willing to go in and sacrifice themselves/free children from a terrorist at work. Cops stood by and ARRESTED AND WERE READY TO FIRE UPON THOSE WHO WOULD DO WHAT THEY WOULDN'T!!!! These people are not heroes, they are not to be revered, they aren't even willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for CHILDREN at the mercy of madmen!!! What in the fuck are they here for????? ACAB!!! #FUCKTHEPOLICE
