      She was also running into a building the shooter wasn't in. She broke a perimetre, distracted the officers trying to secure and evacuate the other buildings, and basically rhew roll call to the wind all because HER babies were not accounted for yet. Sorry, she's an idiot and she should be thankful there wasn't secondary shooters waiting for someone to cause a commotion to make an opening.
      TLDR: HEr children were fine, were never in danger form Ramos, the only danger they would have been in is if someone else broke though with her and was a secondary shooter. She put her kids and others in danger being selfish.

      Columbine went down the same.
      Kids were holding signs in the windows begging the cops for help. The killers had been dead for over an hour. There had been no gunshots since. Cops still decided the kids pleading for help were some kind of trick and didn't go in for a while longer. Kids died from injuries that could have been treated. That's only a tiny part of what went wrong that day and I suggest looking into it.
      A lot of school shootings go down with this level of incompetence. This is just the first time it's not getting buried before it hits the news. The information is easily findable, but no one ever looks because people have a lot of unfounded trust in the police.

      YES! It's not just "bad apples", the entirety of the CJS is broken. Corrupt beyond repair. It's never been about one bad cop, it's been every cop who watched it and said nothing, every DA who ignored it, every chief who covered for him. How did you people not see this coming decades ago? What were you expecting when they changed their slogan from "protect and serve", to "all that matters is we go home at night"? They stopped even looking for crimes, and started busting up homes over victimless use of plants, and the whole system was behind it, and people STILL refused to look. Refused to care. Uvalde is not unique in this, and you're dooming us to another tragedy if you think this entire interdepartmental episode is just a bunch of bad apples who happened to be all in the same place. It's much, much easier to just blame the chief, but the truth is we need to completely overhaul our CJS or we can expect more incompetence. And more angry, violent young men too.

And they do it every day. So the idea that some random person could carry a gun on school grounds where any kid could take it from them and have access to many other guns from many other idiot teachers… teachers are just people and most people are dumb is what I’m saying I guess.

It takes a lot of training to become proficient with a firearm and even more time on top of that to know how to handle close quarter combat with hostages. This is also training that has to be maintained, alongside the other training we already do yearly on education and child development. On top of all of that, while I firmly believe that I would do whatever it take to defend my students, I don’t know that I’ve ever been half so scared as the children and the teachers in that classroom were. I would be lying if I said I knew 100% that I could keep my cool, get my students to safety, and get a clear shot off on an intruder while being fired at.
      I would also like to mention that, while I am not personally struggling with this right now, many teachers are feeling completely burnt out. Already teachers feel underfunded and unsupported, asking them to provide police services on top of providing an education and social, emotional, and behavioral services is just more than we can handle and more than we’re qualified to handle.

    One of the teachers that died was the wife of an officer in the hall. The officer was on the phone with her as he was in the hall because she called to let him know she was shot and was dying. He was ready to encounter the gunman, but the other officers took his gun and escorted him out of the building. Arredondo knew there were people alive and suffering. They never tried the doors to see if they were unlocked. They never tried to enter the classroom despite officers with rifles and shields arriving.

      @James Drake - You are correct. I don't know what these cowards did in the academy, assuming this Podunk police department had one, but when officers "graduate" from the police academy, so many of them get fat and lazy. The annual PAT (physical agility test) to stay employed is an absolute joke in so many departments. I saw a deputy in his late 70's with crippling emphysema pass their test every year. He finally couldn't pass it - after they gave him 4 tries at it. I'm sure that is a problem in the majority of the departments. The only ones that are usually in great shape are the K9 officers, and that's only because their partners are dogs and they make them stay in shape.
