Very interesting read Even the Supreme Court affirmed in 2005 that police departments are not in fact obligated to provide protection to the public. https://theintercept.com/2022/05/27/uvalde-texas-shooting-police-law-enforcement/ “Neither the Constitution, nor state law, impose a general duty upon police officers or other governmental officials to protect individual persons from harm — even when they know the harm will occur,” said Darren L. Hutchinson, a professor and associate dean at the University of Florida School of Law. “Police can watch someone attack you, refuse to intervene and not violate the Constitution.” The Supreme Court has repeatedly held that the government has only a duty to… Read more »

Another school shooting, another probe? What happened to the democrats mantra to never let this ever happen again? Evil exists and government overreach will continue to disarm the wrong people. We know this will happen again because you can’t legislative morality to the mentally impaired.

Next the democrats will come for our non electric cars. Nothing can stop a evil person from doing evil deeds. The courts used to lock them up !!! now the courts turn them lose and pay off their student loans. When they destroy personal property or rob a store the law looks the other way.

When you are law abiding citizen they want everything you own by way of taxes inflations a fees for ever public service. Yet the elected become multi millionaires on a congressman’s salary in washington.

Democrats Credo, DO AS I SAY NOT AS I DO

Laddyboy

AGREED! a few word changements of your comment.
“DemoKKKrat NAZI Credo; DO AS I SAY SUBJECT, NOT AS I DO (with impunity).

The government’s failure to do its’ job within the confines of the Constitution is by DESIGN. The politicians want us disarmed and helpless, especially so they can do things to us that would get them SHOT!
Our only recourse may be to take up arms to prevent this fate, and hit that 1776 reset button.

Hazcat

The only ‘probe’ needed is the sharpened stake every cop should be impaled on and left standing on the front lawn of that school. Useless, cowards all of them.

Ed

So when social media takes down a suspects page is it still available for Leo investigation at its fullest or are they destroying evidence? When I was an Leo I didn’t deal a whole lot with social media and pages weren’t pulled down like today.

Henry Bowman

The school police, city police, City council, everyone involved there are refusing to cooperate with state investigators. Sure sounds like people are afraid that their involvement in this false flag attack will get them the death penalty!
Until the Commiecrat Party is able to ban all guns and nullify the 2nd Amendment, the false flag attacks will increase in severity & frequency till they get what they want, which is a disarmed America! At that point, watch the tyranny explode: good people tossed in the gulag (like the J6ers) and the liquidation of dissidents (like China)!

How about a probe on why NRA, Abbott & Phelan have done NOTHING to ban “gun free” zones by statewide preemption?

Henry Bowman

The NRA is worse than useless. Abbott & Phelan are RINOs, as best as I can tell. The local police are apparently cowards who ‘just follow orders’ jawohl! …and who knows what’s going on at the federal level that we don’t know about!

Laddyboy

Who called for the STAND DOWN ORDER? Who ORDERED the HARASSMENT of the Parent CITIZENS of the Children? KUDOS to the Mother who ran in and brought out Child CITIZENS! Why did they have to bring in an ASSASSIN to finish off the TERRORIST? “Dead men tell nothing”! Why did the “law enforcement” NOT put this TERRORIST on the DO NOT ALLOW LIST of NICS? Where did the funding come for the over $4,000.00 worth of equipment? Who TRAINED this TERRORIST? Was it the FBI who TRAINED him as was done in Buffalo NY? Was this TERRORIST on PSYCHOTROPIC DRUGS?… Read more »

“Where did the funding come for the over $4,000.00 worth of equipment?”

Why is it so hard to consider that he may have earned that money?

Rebel VA

Drugs? From China/Mexico?

JSNMGC

Wendy’s?

Henry Bowman

Dude, they guy didn’t have a job. Period. SOMEbody gave him the money! And why would someone who is about to commit mass murder save his receipts? The receipts are documentary evidence, which suggests he had to make sure someone saw that he was the purchaser and that there wasn’t someone buying that gear and simply giving it to him. Ask yourself why that would be?

You need to ask the right questions. When you do, you’ll see more clearly. Arm up & carry on!

Russn8r

I seem to recall seeing someone claim he had a low wage job. Could be bullshit. Do we know he didn’t steal &/or borrow from granny too?

Henry Bowman

Convenient for the coverup that she’s dead…. But even if he had a low-paying job, it doesn’t explain him having TWO Daniel Defense rifles worth AT LEAST $2k EACH.

JSNMGC

Even if he only worked at Wendy’s and not any other jobs (like mowing lawns), and even if he never received any cash presents for Christmas or birthdays, and assuming he only worked 20 hours/week during the school year and only 30 hours per week during the summers, he could have earned over $12,000 (after taxes) in just two years. Saving enough of that to buy the firearms and ammo would not be a stretch at all.

JSNMGC

Reply on hold, but he could have easily saved that much money working part time at Wendy’s. The guy was 18-years-old.

JSNMGC

Replies on hold, but he could have easily earned and saved enough for the firearms and ammo.

JSNMGC

How did you conclude he didn’t have a job? I don’t know why he saved receipts – maybe he didn’t care about leaving evidence because he knew he was going to die. I wouldn’t put anything past government employees – they have shown in the past that some are capable of shooting hundreds of unarmed old men, pregnant women, and children (including infants). Maybe Uvalde was a false flag, but if someone starts off believing it was a false flag and then asks questions and answers his own questions with the goal of finding support for his original belief, that doesn’t… Read more »

I think I’ll pass on casting my pearls before swine today, I have somewhere I need to go and I don’t have time to “understand it for you”. You clearly have a fetish for trusting the government that deserves ZERO trust, regardless of whether it’s federal, state, local or school district police.

JSNMGC

Ok.

Russn8r

That’s uncalled for abuse. His posts have all been well reasoned. He was being sarcastic about “really smart people.”

jack mac

Considering the media is anti-gun and its reporting of this murder is extremely erratic, accurate assessment is impossible. The background checks with sale records maintenance’s only purpose are to establish a national firearm registry. Anyone not locked up is free to acquire whatever is available. This murderer could have acquired the same firearms cheaper through private sale and at an earlier age. No matter how long we wait for accurate information it may not come from the media. I am not criticizing your comment, Laddyboy, just pointing out the fact that no facts as been presented.

Henry Bowman

There are facts,but the MSM has simply ignored them, or misrepresented them. Depending on sources, you may be able to deduce a number of things, but you may have to wait a spell for independent corroboration that confirms your assessment.
