Maybe a Texan can explain

It took 40 minutes or more to breach the school and take down the shooter. And when it was done, it was done by a tactical squad from the U.S. Border Patrol -- we are talking about 50+ miles from the border -- that the Texas Governor claims is ineffectual and not doing their job, while Uvalde residents complained their local law enforcement stood around outside doing nothing.

Have y'all asked Gov. Abbott to define effectual without using political labels?

seems like the police were told to stand down. All they did was block the parents from rushing in as they witnessed this tragedy unfold, standing there helpless. 40 Police standing around threatening parents with tasers not to go inside and tackling one father down to the ground because the police was doing nothing. Seems like a FF thing, but then again I’m no forensics expert am I?

They should all be charged with accessory to commit mass murder

@Onestarlitnight If we were privy to what they were told to do I’d be willing to bet they were told to stand down and let it happen. Sound familiar?
