So The Uvalde shooter, Salvador Ramos, was bullied in school.

This is sad. Another senseless tragedy because people were mean to someone for no reason. The article says he was bullied because he was poor.

Maybe his act was a cry for help that can show us that starting in elementary school, people need to watch out for others getting bullied.

eta- i am not justifying his actions or making excuses for him. i am merely trying to make sense of a senseless act

There’s apparently much more to this shooting than we’re being told. And very likely we’ll never know.

@soar2newhighs like what? that is speculation? the article seemed pretty thorough

@Penny I keep hearing "new" details that contradict previous details. At this point it's still hard to know what's accurate and who is just repeating something they heard somewhere. Right now everyone seems mostly to be focused on the screw ups made by law enforcement.

@robb65 maybe schools ought to be locked from now on during school hours. why not right?

@Penny Supposedly the lock didn't catch when the teacher closed the door. I heard a rumor today that the shooter had at some point talked to the officer stationed at the school. IDK if that is true but he may have known there was only one officer and sometimes he left to run errands. Who knows, he may have even known that there was a problem with the locks.
