So two cops were shot early in the rampage is now coming out
Wasn't that known early?
i could have sworn i saw reports of that within a few hours after the shooting. Is there some new reporting that I missed?
The more I read about the police "response" to this the madder I get. 40-60 minutes is what law enforcement officials are saying how much time elapsed between when the shooter first opened fire on the school and when they supposedly shot him. But they were quick to point out they managed to force him to stay in one room -- the room where he did all his damage. You mean to tell me you knew which room he was in and yet it still took that long? How those fucking cops can look at themselves in the mirror and not be sickened at the sight of their faces is beyond my comprehension. They should do their communities all a favor and go resign and spend the rest of their lives in their mama's basements sucking their thumbs.
- When they did enter the school, they went to rescue their own kids first rather than deal with the shooter
Update: Joe Garcia, the husband of Irma Garcia, one of two teachers shot and killed in Uvalde, TX on Tuesday, has reportedly suffered a fatal heart attack. Joe and Irma were high school sweethearts and married 24 years. They leave behind four children.
I think there was some confusion with two initial cops who were "treated for injuries on scene" and banter joked that they had scraped knees from running away.
It gets better

There is much dispute and little verification about this. I'm not saying I don't believe because I absolutely do, however I won't let myself get further enraged until this is confirmed.
Press conference not going well for TX Dept of Public Safety.

Now thr gunman strolled in an unmarked, unlocked door unmolested? Resource officer wasnt carrying?
Sounds like a cover up and they haven't gotten their stories straight yet.
What a complete royal fuck up of maximum magnitude proportions. Fuck Texas. Fuck America. And Fuck Planet Earth.
Don't worry. I'm sure we'll vote our way out of this mess come November.
Texas Lt Gov Dan Patrick was on Fox & Friends talking about the need for "hardening our schools" and the role of violent video games and violent music in school shootings. Anything but guns.

*edit* Oh, and they may have even negotiated with the gunman. But it wasn't clarified.
BREAKING: Senate Republicans just blocked the Domestic Terrorism Prevention Act, which would have opened debate on gun reform measures.
What the fuck did he just say?
I am now dumber having watched that.....
Kids at a Texas elementary school yesterday were being “groomed” as future AR-15 owners. The presentation included, “A Liberal’s Guide to the AR-15.” The principal later apologized, saying it was “not age appropriate” and “not suitable.”
Photos of an AR-15 style rifle, the type of gun used during Tuesday’s mass school shooting in Uvalde, were shown by a sheriff’s deputy to students at a Fort Worth elementary school Wednesday during a career day presentation. The Tarrant County Sheriff’s Office deputy made the presentation during a career day event on Wednesday morning at E.M. Daggett Elementary School. In a photo of the presentation shared with the Star-Telegram, an image of a poster titled “A Liberal’s Guide to the Deadly AR-15” is highlighted on Google Images. The poster describes the different components of the rifle.
