"Some of the police entered the school and retrieved their OWN children." That was the single most chilling statement of your analysis.
Totally agree
Preservation for themselves and kin.
We should know the names of these brave police officers. Maybe they will be published when the officers themselves are fired. Not holding breath.
and how is it they only took ONE kid? I’m not sure how that works
That speaks to the overall lack of empathy in society. During the early days of the pandemic, prople were not only against wearing a mask to try to hold back a virus, they were ripping masks off the faces of other people's children. More recently, a woman who was arrested for killing her child said she couldn't be bothered to feed it. People are barely thinking of their own, much less others.
I was an EMT for five years. I have seen my fair share of mass casualty incidents and have had to put myself in harm's way multiple times. I worked with 100s of other first responders in my time. NONE of them, be they fire, police, or EMS would have tolerated the gutless cowardice on display during this event. If there was a time to risk life and limb, it was HERE. Those were CHILDREN inside that school with that monster. Every one of those officers failed to do their duty not as a cop, but as an adult to keep our children safe.
Worse still, they ACTIVELY BARRED parents from trying to save their kids. If you don't have the balls to do what needs to be done, at least step aside and let someone else do it. Horrific.
@Pat R, Bottom-line; this entire gutless police force needs to be charged with abandonment, and gross Negligence.
@@nickc8819 NO!!!......MURDER
Yea they should have sent you with the jaws of life to stand in front of the door and peel it open for them. Firefighters decline such requests
Word.
Yes to everything u said.
As an outraged Texan, I thank you for your REAL and truthful analysis of the ALL of the cowards in Uvalde. The police officers that stood in that hallway for over an hour looking as if they are having an impromptu FOP meeting chatting with each other are the cowards that day we must all be truly truly concerned with. Thank you for your candor.
I saw that tonight too. That is horrific. They not only hid, each time they heard a gunshot they ran, even when they had bullet-proof shields. It was a lie to say they waited him out because the shooting had stopped. There was a lot of shooting for a long time while they hid in the hallway. Many went outside.
Cowards like this shouldn't have positions of power.
Maybe they would have stormed that room if donuts were getting killed
You must be referring the the Sorry Ass Barny Fife Coward Cops who ran in the opposite direction when they heard gunfire.
But one guy remembered to use the hand sanitizer dispenser on the wall.
The first officers on the scene were extremely quick in their initial response. They rushed down the hallway to the rooms with the gunman. Upon receiving gunfire they ran, fled , retreated and never re-engaged. They were paralyzed by the fear of being shot, so their own value superseded the value of those kids. That's the textbook definition of cowardice. Sounds harsh but it is what it is.
Seen that, that's when they should have taken action.
Nothing but the truth. Cowards. All of them.
Yeah most of us see if for what it is , cowardice. This is exactly how gangs and bullies operate, torment the weak and vulnerable and run away when confronted by real forces.
@@wowihaveachannel4862gang members dont tend to run away, theres consequences for that
Like it mattered. Everybody in that room was dead.
If cops don’t have to legally protect people, then they shouldn’t stop the ones who are willing to.
That part!!!
They think they're just there to control people.
Ultimately, isn't a police force supposed to be there to protect citizens? Isn't this why we have police forces?
I don't get it!
@@sunisbest1234 legally no. It's been proven in court. Defund the police
@@sunisbest1234 The job of police is only to investigate crime, gather evidence and present the evidence to the district attorney. The district attorney then decides whether they have sufficient evidence to have a probability of conviction.
Think of it. In my city there is only one police officer for every three hundred people. Assuming 1/3rd of those are on duty at any given time that's 1 per 900. If I'm facing some kind of threat they can't park a police vehicle in front of my house all night. And threats don't always come announced ahead of time, in fact they only very rarely do.
Which gets us to the inconsistency of laws against owning and carrying guns. Ultimately, we are personally responsible for our own safety and defense yet there are laws against carrying guns.
I was in the military for 9 1/2 years. If these officers performed this way in the military, they would be court marshaled for cowardice in the face of the enemy, and that commander in charged would be immediately relieved. They were 100% cowards, these are 8,9 and 10 year old's being murdered. What would you do if 8 year old's were being murdered. They were fucking cowards!
They claimed that were afraid of getting killed, uh there was more cops against one psycho and aren't cops trained to take down a criminal in these situations.. wtf
@@brenh2767 They were all wearing bullet proof vests for protection against onslaught of bullets, armed with high caliber fire-arms and running around like chickens with their heads cut-off. They are nothing but cowardly lions in addition to being chicken-hearted!
Exactly. I can’t even imagine a soldier or airman standing down in a situation like this. We’d be IN there. Jesus I’m so angry about this. How could they hear those shots and those childrens’ screams and just stand there behind the door? How could that on-site commander not change the order back to active shooter protocol immediately after the first 911 call from behind that door. Good lord.
Also this is the first I’m hearing that the cops on the perimeter were pepper spraying parents!! Wtaf!
It seems to be a recurring theme during these school shootings.
So true, I was in the Marines, infantry. I was also a teacher. That school had windows, they all do, and I saw the windows in the news video. It is standard procedure to take out a target from two different vantage points. Cops should have gone to the window and shot in some tear gas, then shot at gunmen or the ceiling to distract him and the other cops kick the down down and rush in. Why they didn't do that is beyond me.
I’ve been in the military for 10 years, was a firefighter, and an EMT. I’m 62 years old and know myself pretty good. There is not one bit of doubt in my mind that if my grand babies were in that room, I would have used my body as a shield so the guys behind me could take him out. I’ve lived a good life. Those kids should have live theirs.
god bless you ❤
I hope you never have to make that decision. Best wishes to you.
@@TabithaJones-rg9ig I don’t do lunatic conspiracy theories. Seek help. Seriously.
"They are trained to put their own safety above others....." Yet, a young mother- after handcuffs were removed, climbed a fence, got into the school and got her two sons without body armor, a weapon, or one thought for herself.... she should have been in charge.
Whered you see that story? I want to see!
@@elijazfrazelsassafraz3100 I seen it too if you wondering. You should be able to find it on CZcams, it shows her from about the time she got to the school, handcuffed, no handcuffs, running in, coming out with her children. She’s given interviews too.
link pls!!
@@mamiemonrovia7654 it’s called CZcams with a search bar… lol
@@mamiemonrovia7654 not to be cute but I’m a boomer, I have no idea how to post you a link. I just searched it and put in “woman who went in for her children in Uvalde”, it came right up.
Imagine being one of those parents who tried to go into the school and save their child but who was restrained by the police and then finding out that your child was killed...Living the rest of your life wondering if you could have saved your child from such a fearful death had you not been restrained.
nope. tbh unless the parent had a weapon themselves they wouldve complicated the situation even more. the event was treated as if it were a hostage situation. with this, the approach is to calm the perp, and you cant risk him becoming volatile due to random people are running in being vigilantes. unfortunately this is one that went differently. i know the way the news is presenting it sounds horrible, but this is the proper procedure..
Completely false and idiotic statement. Every distraction to the shooter is a moment of time where he is not focused on the children. Wake up dude. This information is readily available. The first thing procedure says to do in the event of an active shooter is CONFRONT. Look it up!
Before their police they are human and I'm sure they were scared themselves but they signed up for the job....now we see how useless police are when you need them and how they are johnny on the spot when it comes to harassing....
I have and the thought alone is enough to make you vomit. No fucking words......
I read that the police taped some parents.
In so many of these mass shooting incidents, you hear about unarmed teachers, administrators, and school employees who put themselves in harm's way to protect the kids. Whether they distracted the shooter or used their own bodies to shield the kids from getting shot. For trained law enforcement who have the benefit of protective gear to stand there and do nothing is unconscionable.
Damn right.
They let jfk get shot at by 5 people.. It's a Texas thing
The police officers' behavior was just shameful.
Well to be fair, the commanding officer was the one who ordered to wait for tactical teams. So i don’t think a lot of these officers had a choice but it is very sad.
'Just following orders' in not a reasonable excuse.
I just watched the police video and all I can say it’s embarrassing. There was 50 cowards in bulletproof vests, not one man had the heart to burst through the door and kill that psycho even if you take a bullet.
Why have the police made 12 changes to their story? Why. Because they know their FUCK UP Got 21 people killed. Thats. why.
Fam they had 4 ballistic shields and body armor and helmets and a whole hour and a half passed before they went in. There is no excuse fire them all charge them all. They are no longer considered men to society
Not taking a bullet for anyone else
@@robinantonio8870 Let's stop paying cops their enormous salaries if they don't want to protect children anymore, coward defender.
@@Moresco24fuck that bro. Grow up. They aren't "men", a "woman", a mother went in there to rescue her children without any weapons or body armor. Stop using sex as an excuse. They aren't HUMAN. That mother did more than any "man" did that day. Sex doesn't define courage.
The thing that infuriates me is the number of officers present at scene.Almost 400 armed police,
all parading around fronting in front of the news media. DISGRACEFUL.
YEP Barny Fife's. They acted like they were having a cop parade in the hallway holding their guns pointed at NOTHING.
@@anyabwilef.zainabu3507 backing away like an invisible ghost was pushing them back.
400 for one shooter 😩. Army units should be used for active shooters not Police.
Not only were the police cowards, they used FORCE against people that WEREN'T cowards to stop them from intervening in the murders that were taking place while they stood there doing NOTHING. These police AIDED and ABETTED this crime and IMO should be charged as such.
💯 💔💔💔
Why did they stop the parents from saving the lives of their children? Oh that's right, so that they public wouldn't know they let defenseless civilians do the job their known for, FOR THEM!
It's why I never call the police for anything and have no respect for them
Yes. Almost as if the cops wanted this to become a mass shooting in the school.
Idk man. You weren’t there. Kid had assault rifles and a bag of ammo. A town’s police force with 16,000 population may have like, a hunting rifle maybe. They aren’t equipped for that mass shooters because it doesn’t happen that much. Also, they weren’t just doing nothing, they were actively helping children and teachers escape.
Another thing, the other sources I’ve looked at stated the shooting happened before anyone got there and that the shooter was cornered, preventing him from moving from class to class.
Another thing. Letting unarmed civilians charge into a school shooting situation is a recipe for collateral damage. Yes your children are in danger but you are even less equipped to deal with these situation than that police force was, and charging in there recklessly would absolutely get more innocent people killed.
It hurts so much hearing that children were calling 911 begging for help while police were standing outside. I head a story that a mom that was handcuffed convinced the officer to let her free. She then snuck around, jumped a fence and was able to save some children from a window. Let's talk about that courage. 😭😭😭
Pathetic really. Unbelievable this happened. If the cops kids were in there, they’d storm it with SWAT.
Why was the mom handcuffed? O_O
@@Cathee.M. for trying to get the cops to go in as the people could hear shooting, but the cops wouldn't go in but wouldn't let the parents go in, so they they spent their time fighting with the parents rather than do their duty,
So obviously the mom must have told them some home truths about their cowardice
@@mazscsu Swat nothing, if their kids were there they would have stormed it themselves no hesitation
Did she save anymore than her own two children?
You explained everything so well. For me, I’m not upset they were scared. That’s basic human nature. But their fear drove them to inaction and for that I can’t forgive them.
Reminds me of that man stabbing people on the subway in New York, and 2 police officers hid in fear while a civilian got stabbed and pinned the guy down. It went to court and they said the same thing "it's not our job as the police to keep ypu safe" what are they even for..?
Bravery is not fearlessness. One cannot be brave without fear. Bravery is being fearful and still doing what needs to be done, regardless of your training or ability. By this measure those 19 men are cowards
An important distinction!
That’s courage you go speaking of. Bravery is more of chance taking and implies higher level recklessness. It’s courage that you want with times like this.
The two words are synonyms and if they weren't then it wouldn't matter in this case. Also known as a distinction without a difference
@Todd W. Bucy Absolutely correct. Anyone who says they're not afraid of anything is either a fool or a liar. Fear is a prerequisite for courage; without fear, there is no courage. But one must have the moral fortitude and faith to be able to master fear and use it as a motivator to do what must be done instead of allowing oneself to be paralyzed by it.
Oh a la mi
The police refused to stop him from shooting kids, while at the same time preventing others from stopping the shooter. They aided the shooter.
Welcome to The United States friend.
lmao literal cope
@Jarvis Richards it's Texas. Those parents were armed and ready to fight for their kids lives just like any of us would be.
The police have to actually be doing something for them to start claiming you're interfering
Hey barie, the shooter was locked in a classroom from the inside. Without a key U don't open the door. A door that is all metal including the door frame, hinges, door handle & locking system plus the metal bolt catcher. If there were 50 officers in the hall, they could not open that door. No police department would ALLOW unarmed or armed MOM or DAD to run into an active shooting scene. First it is too DANGEROUS! Second U had to have a KEY!!!
@@mitchellfraser634 The door wasn't locked, they said that during the 4 hour press conference. Also the cops had a hallagian entry tool. That's what firefighters use to get past locked doors.
Imagine if this were a hospital and there were people dying from bleeding out with enough time to save people, but the doctors refused to do anything because they were scared of blood.
I never thought I could be interested in these mental health situations, but your analyses have changed my mind. I find your videos fascinating.
Hearing exactly how the police responded to this shooting makes me literally nauseous.
Almost as if it was planned...
@@anarcho-savagery2097 As if *what* was planned? This won't be an Alex Jones type of conspiracy theory, will it?
@@christiananderson4909 Alex Jones claimed it was all theatre at the time. What I'm saying is that False Flag Operation can always be a possibility when it comes to high profile shootings like these to push legislation.
@@anarcho-savagery2097 Oh, for f*ck sake. . .
@@christiananderson4909 think about it. Why would the Uvalde police correct their statements after being outted for in-action in a mass shooting that cost the lives of several children??? They barricade the shooter inside, with children screaming, and then claiming that the shooter was dead, even after still receiving 911 calls from children. 47 minutes was how much time Ramos had with the children he massacred. It's too foolish and naive to assume every mistake in-the-book, could be made and not become skeptical about it. Not only that, but they detained parents of the children that wanted to save kids. Almost as if they were following orders.....
The thought of those wounded children possibly laying in agony for an hour when they could’ve been saved is so infuriating.
At Columbine, heroic teacher Dave Sanders died slowly of blood loss while awaiting police. Any officer responding to a shooting should know this.
You would think after the coward LEO that stood outside fpr an hr at Parkland, they would've learned protocol by now.
Rest In Peace little ones we’ll all be together again ;(
Catie: It can literally drive people crazy to harbor those images in ones mind. Haunting. Disturbing. Traumatizing. We have entered a phase of collective madness, I think. The best thing we can do right now is practice meticulous mental hygiene. Whatever and however that works best for each. Peace.
I can’t stop thinking about that. How those cops can look a single member of the community in the eye after this…
Another sad aspect of what happened is that the police involved have shown zero remorse or shame for what happened. The department was more upset about body cam footage that got leaked than their own colossal failure.
To this day, as it was during the shooting, the main thing with these cops is protecting themselves.
Its probably better there arent too many serious investigations of police forces, cause we would hate the results.
I know many do their best, but many cops cover up what ever the really bad cops do, as they would be chased out of their jobs if they didnt toe the line. They can never work as cops again if they become whistleblowers.
Its truly a "gang in blue".
As career soldier of 22 years I can honestly say that you make good points on the mental state of people who have to make that choice of taking a life knowing that they are human as well. However, when it comes to actions that is expected from them we train are troops to handle a situation like war or clearing a building which in itself requires hours of training. This training is conducted so when and if that situation occurred they automatically revert to muscle memory where their actions come from training and act accordingly.
My analysis from my experience gives a different approach on this matter. When a person chooses to kill his state of mind is set to kill. So, our soldiers are trained to handle a situation such s as clearing or to be blunt to eliminate the target. They don’t retreat even if a member is shot. A member of the assault team usually from the back who radio that a member is down one member of that team will pull the injured member to safety. Yet the team moves forward to accomplish the mission or the intended action of eliminating the target. We have to remove the human aspect of the target and engage said target with the objective to neutralize the shooter. Does this impact the individuals after completing their task? Sure it does. However they reflect on what they have done with a different approach on the situation. The satisfaction they completed the mission objective which is obvious they eliminated the target.
I was trained to think from a different mind set about what I may do I’d put in that situation. In essence I train my troops in the same manner as I was taught just as those before me had been trained and to train their soldiers in the same manner.
I will also mention that when soldiers take a job as becoming a peace officer, they will recognize a perpetrator is in different about what they are doing their approach is changed and in a few situations they can talk deescalate the situation. That in itself should tell you that they don’t want to kill if they don’t have to but if there is no other choice. By that it means if the shooter is doing that then the choice is obvious on what must be done.
I appreciate your view from your experience and express your thoughts about the different behaviors that are imposed on police officers.
I hope that you may find my view helpful.
As a combat engineer I take many views on soldiers and the facilities where such things have happened but that would not be related to your shared thoughts about the actions or in this case the inactions of the officers.
Any children who show a tendency to hurt small animals MUST be intervened with and carefully monitored. That behavior is a dead giveaway of psychopathic and murderous brains. Parents have to understand that this is not just kids being kids-normal children by their nature feel affection towards animals. If they feel the need to hurt them it speaks of abnormal psychology.
Agreed.
I can't believe people still don't see this. Many serial killers start out torturing and killing animals. Everyone should know that by now. What kind of so-called human being can see animal abuse and think it's ok or be indifferent about it? Grow some empathy for animals already!
His parents are stupid
Not all dangerous murderers kill or hurt small animals as children (or become a murderer) but this seem to be one common thing among many of them. Any child or teen who enjoys hurting animals should be taken as a very serious warning of something horrible going on and appropriate action taken.
Some one should have said some thing for sure , the signs were there
If the cops knew that children were calling 911 inside the classroom and they still didn’t act, they deserve to be prosecuted. The reason why myself and so many others are angry, is because anyone who is a parent would have risked their lives to save innocent elementary school children. Either the 911 operators should be prosecuted for not relaying the calls to the police, or the police should be prosecuted for failing to act.
Well you could hear him shooting in the 911 calls from the kids saying kids were still alive. Of course the cops could hear the gunshots.
The local police should be fired and their 401(k) seized and given to the victims’ families.
Did you not hear that the police are not legally required to protect us? Therefore, they cannot be prosecuted for failing to protect us. Thank the Supreme Court for that ruling.
@@exrobowidow1617 great. Then there should be no restrictions whatsoever on private gun ownership. Fine. You won’t protect me and my family? Fair enough. Don’t stop me buying an M16 to do you lazy/cowardly scumbags’ job for you. We are seriously becoming PRC lite.
SCOTUS makes up “qualified immunity” in order to protect the government authority from lawsuits because law enforcement is serving the community and facing dangerous situations in order to protect the public.
SCOTUS subsequently decided that the police officers have no duty to protect the public.
It’s a crime to falsify government records.
Government records are considered factual as they are written...
as a matter of authority...
and so they write reports not as things factually happened but rather as they want the charges to read and however it would make them look good.
This behavior is fraudulent and criminal...
Corruption begets corruption.
No responsibility,
No accountability,
No transparency.
It’s not the firearms that are problem.
Such a good analysis, thanks Dr. Grande. So well spoken and choice of language was so well done.
Your analysis was thoughtful and spoke to the change in culture of law enforcement.
I’ve witnessed 1st hand and also seen on tv officers commanding a suspect for “my safety.”
Their primary goal from training is to go home at the end of their shift.
This is a gut-check for every department & every officer.
Ask yourself “why do I want to be a cop?” If it’s not to someday have the chance to risk your life for the life of a stranger, do anything else.
All anyone can do is pray for courage when it’s needed.
Sadly, I’m afraid the death toll from Uvalde hasn’t ended yet.
“It's too dangerous for us. The kids will have to deal with this on their own.”
Uvalde police logic.
Heartbreaking!💔
WE ARE READY TO BE PATROLLED BY DRONES AND FOR Y'ALL TO HAVE FREE WILL TO SHOOT CRIMINALS
This is what happens when police are attacked for doing their job. Ntm hiring people based on skin color and not work ethic.
Incident Commander. F
Police. F
Parents retrieved children. A
Don't trust Government, sad but true
😪
The shooter couldn't have had it easier. ... entered the school in a door that had been recently propped open, then goes on a shooting rampage uninterrupted by law enforcement. Unbelievable.
Fired outside for 12 minutes THEN walked right in an open(!) door....
@@shelleydunkle7867 I'm not saying you're wrong, but you are categorically a conspiracy theorist, given you just theorized about a conspiracy.
You’re not wrong, Jennifer D.
There had been an Honors Assembly that morning, hence the door was still unlocked. The cops who retrieved their own children were selfish cowards; the rest just plain cowards. Cops used to be brave people who wanted to serve others. Nowadays most of them are arrogant control freaks who see the position as an opportunity for power. Their cowardice mixed with ineptitude (and selfishness for some) enabled this tragedy.
The kids who were "saved" by their daddies while the other children were left behind now have to grow up knowing their fathers are cowards. These kids will now have to deal with survivors guilt and whatever relationship remains with their cowardly fathers. This is a type of survivors guilt that is new to school shootings: "I am alive because my daddy let other kids die".
"let's wait, he'll wear himself out eventually"
Dr. Grande thanks for the insight. I am a big fan of your work. I have read many of your analysis on various subjects. :)
Thank you Dr Todd for being very direct with your thoughts and not just rambling. Your points are clear, concise and non-blaming. It would be interesting to review all these mass shootings and identify common denominators. This may help someone non-professional to report a concern of a threat. IDK but parents need to wake up!
Cruelty to animals is a pretty good sign that a kid needs psychological intervention.
Exactly. That's why animal cruelty needs harsher charges... If someone is willing to hurt an animal, they are a danger to the community. They will hurt children, disabled, elderly, etc.
@@uekvowzkaebbzuvrgipqxhemmwbhe that’s messed up. You may not kill people, but I’m pretty sure you have limited empathy for other people. Correct me if I’m wrong.

Imagine if this were a fire and the fire department showed up with time to save people but refused to act based on fear. It would be completely unacceptable.
That's the difference between firemen and cops. Firemen will go in as long as they know there are people inside who need to be rescued. From what I understand the cops violated basic active shooter training. Once there is an active shooter any cop could go in on his own he does not need a supervisor to tell him when to go in. The schools police chief who gave the order to stand down and not go in has been refusing to meet the media. Texas sounds like a corrupt state. It appears there is no agency to hold anyone accountable. Currently in the news a family of five was murdered by a prisoner escapee who was able to pull off a Harry Houdini and escape while in chains off a prisoner bus transporting him to a medical appointment to another city. There should have been a notice to residents in the area of an escaped prisoner and to be aware and lock their doors. There is so much incompetence in Texas beginning with the governor all the way down.
Well cops don't have to save anyone regardless
they think their lives matter more than children lives
@@Verminator787 contrast these cops with two WWII veterans I saw in the news yesterday, June 6, on the beach of Normandy, France where they landed 78 years ago. They are around 97 years old. They both say they were in the second division landing. And that the men in the first division some of them died in the water when they were machine gunned by the Germans. They never set foot on the beach. The reporter called them heroes. They both said they were just doing their job, and that the heroes are those men lying in the cemeteries in France. Very different from those men who want to stay alive for their pensions after 20 years as police officers.
@@walterrising4276 proof cops are basically useless part 726 lmao
Thank you for your insight, Dr. Todd. I really appreciated your video.
Well spoken and reviewed. Thank you for your insight. I've always believed much of your analysis applied universally to many poor interactions with, behaviors of some officers. Some of them seem to defer to the "afraid for my life" statement/rationale for their poor decisions. I've always expressed my concern and frustration with this inherent fear they operate in. Fear causes people to make poor decisions, and increases the likelihood inappropriate aggressive behaviors. Hence, shootings of unarmed persons. This was a complete tragedy. Ramos' behavior and murderous act is the catalyst of it all. Yet, the inaction and seemingly cowardice of the officers is inexcusable.😢
The amount of cowardice,ineptitude, and malice on display that day in Texas is inexcusable.
You can also blame all of
those teens who said nothing as this monster was spewing all the red flags. Maybe even their parents too, if they told them that this monster was abusing cats and killing them. And calling himself “school
shooter”. Yet, they all stayed quiet. I bet they are reflecting on their mistakes now! Seems
like a lot of people there have blood on their hands.
You would have done the same
@Terri Kay
Lmao! How is that “Texas for you”? One incident and you ridiculously make a comment based on emotions.
@@ajsans9161 blame the children for not bootstrapping this? I have to give you credit for creative trolling.
Mostly by the police. The kid was clearly insane.
40% of the city's budget went to the police force. They have their own swat team.
To treat parents the way they did while getting their own kids out and not engaging the shooter is so far beyond the pale. The level of cowardice is staggering.
Well I’m not surprised, most people there are not really educated
I think the rpolice officers getting their own children out were off-duty police officers. This is from the New York Times: "Some of the parents implored the heavily armed police officers at the chaotic scene to storm the school. Others, including those who were off-duty members of law enforcement, went inside themselves to try to find their own children."
@@cindylouwho9060 How do you know?
@@cindylouwho9060 How do you know?
IT IS CRIMINAL. THOSE COPS NEED PRISON.
Well done. I hope the cops answer your last statement about finding peace in the form of placing their service weapon into their mouth and pulling the trigger.
You have made an excellent presentation here, thank you for your professional insights. A mistaken notion is that the shooter killed 19 students and 2 teachers. The reality is. he certainly shot them, but how many bled out over the hour that ticked past while police dithered in the hall? That portion should be chalked up to the police inaction. Police are fond of referring to their employers, the public, as civilians; what then are the police? If they are under the illusion, they are military grade then they should be brought up on UCMJ article 99, ‘misbehavior before the enemy’. If police had made a timely entry a significant number of wounded would have received medical care and likely lived. An impartial corner should make that determination and the probable loss of lives laid at the doorstep of those police and their departments. There were so many things they could or should have been done. Even throwing stones at/ through the window. My choice would be drive a front end loader with a man in the bucket, [or the police SWAT armored vehicle] up to the windows, sharp shooters or not so sharp shooters could provide covering fire if the shooter made himself a target by appearing at the window. This would open two fronts, assault at the class room door(s) and attack at window(s). What is the shooter going to do? Get angry and shoot someone? He is already doing that, at his discretion / leisure thanks to no notable actions against him.
I am for the Uvalde families injured and uninjured alike, making determination of the future of the persons in authority involved, aka a jury of ones peers.
GOOD PLAN. | Too bad, a loser was in charge; all those dead children for nought.
The cops failed to stop the shooter, but were very successful with folding up parents who were trying to get their kids. They're cowards. The whole force needs fired.
I agree. I have a grandson and a son who would no more stand outside a ELEMENTARY school and NOT try to save lives. This man is full of crap
They are police officers
The two teachers were braver than the so called police officers. I dint care what the chief told me to not do. I would risk losing my job to save lives.
@@shirleycoonce8726 You are a hero in my book.
Aren't you eager to have them come take your guns away according to the will of the Democrats? I don't mean to make it political but the Dems already did that themselves. Are we seriously expected to put our lives in their hands after so many repeated failures to protect the people?
As a former cop, and one who has entered buildings while being shot at, these cops are cowards and should resign en masse. The community is better off without them. That PD should be required to sew a yellow stripe up the spine of their shirt to signify their cowardice. It just rankles me how they could stand around and shoot the breeze while that monster was in the building. Heads should roll. 1) the incident commander that classified this as a barricaded subject situation. 2) The chief of the Uvalde police. 3) the sheriff of that county. 4) The Uvalde cops on duty standing outside that school. 5) The county deputies standing outside that school. 6) the state troopers standing outside the school.
These cops should resign immediately or be fired. they should lose their pension and have the money sent to the families of murdered children. If you can't save the elementary children, it's just cowardice like you said.
I am an medical professional.
We also go toward incidents, with the best possible efforts to save lives.
My husband and I agreed that had we been there, we would have acted.
I would be willing to bet, the majority of parents and emergency responders would do the same.
Shame on the police handcuffing parents and threatening with tazers instead of saving children.
They were cowards but should not have stopped people willing to risk their own lives to save others.
Totally agree
Well said! Thank you NONE OF THEM HAVE ANY BUSINESS WEARING A BADGE AND POLICE UNIFORM. ALL OF THEM SHOULD RESIGN IMMEDIATELY. ALSO, ALL OF THEM ARE COMPLICIT IN THE MASS MURDER. THEY ACTUALLY ENABLED THE KILLER BY NON ACTION WHEN THEY HAD AN OBLIGATION TO ACT THAT SUPERSEDED THE INCOMPETENT COMMANDER IN CHARGE.
@@melaniescott1039 It's a long story, but basically a gang did a drive by on a bar. I got to the bar first. Man hit at the base of the skull. I tried helping, then EMTs arrived. The gang decided to do a second drive by, with all of us inside. Myself and the EMTs didn't flinch (while everyone else dove for the floor). An EMT told me to get them, and I did. The man died, so the six gang members I arrested went to prison for murder.
I also come from a family with nurses. Nurses protect their patients. Since several doctors nearly killed me by injecting me with things I told them that I'm allergic to, I'm not too crazy about doctors. EMTs, lots of respect, lots.
Hands down no question they’re cowards. They are part responsible for the deaths of 21 people. Being confronted with a shooter is not all that intense. These are trained officers. No orders or anything should have stopped them. Idc if you’re alone and unarmed. You run in and do what you can
This guy is excellent. I really learned a lot from his videos.
There's no words even strong enough for how cowardly those cops were.
What about Abbott who enabled this by reducing so many regulations to satisfy the NRA, and keep the money flowing. Hard to be more corrupt than Abbott.
they were trained to do that by the "association of international police chiefs- a constitutionally illegal group that has police from Russia, China, Arabia, etc they come here and "train the training police= this is why you see so many abuses nowadays.
They sure looked tough sitting on that stage afterwards
@@lorettanericcio-bohlman567 again =trained by an evil international organization to take care of just themselves- we must stop the training from international groups
We have to remember that it is not the job of the police to protect people (Supreme Court, 2016) They were protecting themselves by not exposing themselves to gunfire.
My husband is a well respected and decorated recently retired police officer from a large first responder family. He's the most levelheaded and patient officer you'd ever meet. The kind of cop you pray shows up at your darkest moments. He watched the entire situation with silent rage building inside him and finally stated "If I'd been a parent arriving on scene and saw that cowardice unfolding, I'd shoot any officer attempting to restrain me from going into that building and neutralizing the subject. At that point, all bets are called off and someone needs to step up no matter who tries to prevent you. Some situations are not by the book, officers in charge are not always right and do go against their training and moral obligations when faced with a shocking situation. Those officers should be charged in this situation as they stood in the way of actual help."

19 Heavily Armed Cowards, R. I. P. Babies and Teachers xxx
I hear in the old days that police were elected by the people. It brought them a higher level of honor giving them more obligation to protect and a bigger push towards bravery. Maybe we should bring this back.
Maybe all cops need to be paid more and must have a bachelor's in sociology, psychology, and serve at least 4 years in the military. We should up the ante!
If you send them to modern universities..this problem will only get infinitely worse. They need to be trained by people very similar in disposition to a Green Beret in that they have a significant boost of leadership and beyond mastery in forming small to mid armies. The police also need an environment where there are consequences for failure at any stage and it is worked until it cannot be done wrong. Its time for the adults to take back control of every crucial aspect of society because the fabric of people under 30 are unprecedented in actual conceptual ability but are also unprecedented in their individual weaknesses surrounding the voyeuristic nature of their tech relationships that make them sedentary, impulsive and dull.
@@Goldie_Hawn_Solo " Its time for the adults to take back control of every crucial aspect of society " perfectly said
As a 31 year law enforcement retiree, I am convinced to many of these cops were more concerned about their own safety, than that of these children. I remember seeing some of my partners hiding in a dark alleys, while I , along with other officers, rushed to a dangerous call. Unfortunately, cowardice, does exist in police departments. It is simply, a reality.
Thank you for your input. Then, as Dr. Grande said, they shouldn't be cops.

Exactly. It'd be great to see those cowardly officers do a perp walk and to see their tearful pleas in the courtroom - all to no avail. Guilty. 10 years behind bars. Next case.
Ah, wouldn’t that be nice? However, the courts ruled that the police do not have a duty to protect citizens. So that’s super fun.
Over 75 minutes standing outside while hearing gunshots after barricading hun into a class full of kids
The results on being COWARD...19 COWARDS cops = 19 innocent students dead..
"Neat gadgets" lol...you talk like this nerd?
The whole situation is disgusting and heartbreaking. Now that the video is out it is so much more infuriating. So many look like they're just hanging out. To manhandle the parents outside instead of running in is beyond frustrating
Now that the the video of the hallway is released, please give an update.
Edit: just wanted to add that your analysis was spot on, way before the video release. So I guess no update would actually be needed.
As usual, you did a great job 👍
As a nurse for over 20 years if I see a person go down when I am out in public without a crash cart, I do what I can to save the person. These cops were trained that you stop the threat no matter what. Every cop that didn't breach that door should turn in their badge and gun today.
I had a seizure in line at the store. There was nurse behind me. She somehow caught my 225lbs self and helped me. So thanks.
Except when you help you don't have to put your life on the line. Not that I'm defending the cops but there is a big difference, its not easy mentally to sacrafice yourself for others.
@@awawdasd4341 it’s literally what they sign up for, the kids on the other hand didn’t sign up to be shot at
I wander how you breech a school door that opens out while the shooter fires into it and you don't know where he is inside the room. What tool is used how you do it without going down in the process. It hasn't been addressed but seems difficult. Either way the keys to get in should have been there immediately if it wasn't
💯 x 💯🙏
The most sickening aspect of the Unvale's police response is when there, above all, they retrieved their own children. May their shame be eternal.
No need to shame someone. You don’t know how our emotional work at a life Ans death situation. Are you saying If you are in their place you ll forget about your own kids and go save other kids bc that’s the right thing to do ? You would save your own out of instincts not bc you are evil and yin need to be shamed for that bad act. I don’t blame the police
This is just mind blowing. These officers SIGNED UP to have these life or death moments be their CAREER!!!!!!! The cowardice of you and the sick fucks you support is literally allowing children to be murdered. How do you not understand that this is what they signed up for? Then, when it comes time for them to preform their most basic job function, you are completely fine with them chickening out and running to save their own? Gtfo
@@wordsnsayings9063 Those cops are total TRASH! I don’t blame them from saving their own kids, but since they were COWARDS, why *prevent* other parents from saving their kids??!!! Why be a cop if you refuse to protect & serve?!?
@Words and sayings I may wrong however to me you're humanizing their indifference. It's as though there is way for these NPCs to avoid accountability.
I could be wrong so I'll guess you're not a parent nonetheless a police officer with children.
They have the ability and training to stop a criminal from wantonly murdering people and they chose not o.
IMO, Their ability to serve in this profession must be revoked without recourse. Clearly the these police officers have their own objectives in mind and quite possibly are there primarily for the check, benefits and sadly perhaps, perceived clout. The responsibility is theirs, the blame is theirs, the shame is theirs. They lose on the most basic scale.
Even the Buddha condones killing to save the innocent.
Being a coward is human ,so yes, get your shit straight before assuming the responsibility to protect.
@@wordsnsayings9063 Sure, none of us can be certain what we would do in a scenario like Uvalde. If you choose to be a cop however, you have given an answer to that question. These men signed up knowing that they are the ones who handle these situations. Would you respond the the same way if the school was on fire and the firefighters chose to stay back because they were afraid of being burned alive? Of course, you wouldn’t. Police don’t deserve slack because their jobs are dangerous.
I think what produces courage is anger toward the threat and empathy for the potential victim. That was what drove me to run toward danger when a man was being attacked without thinking much about my own wellbeing. I felt empathy for him, like a jolt in the chest, when he screamed for help as if he thought he was being murdered, and anger at the attackers, anger at the injustice of their actions. I immediately began to sprint toward the sound of his voice, and fought off the attackers, one of which managed to graze my chin with a blow that took off a little skin. They had him down on the ground, and where kicking him hard, which is potentially lethal.
Not sure why I'm not already subscribed, but this episode was especially.. Blunt, that'll do.
Sir, I quite like your style. I'll endeavour to get through the rest of your videos over the coming weeks!
If police aren’t obligated to protect civilians… then what’s their purpose? If their purpose is to uphold laws, and someone’s killing kids, isn’t that a law they should uphold?
Stay in school kids. Who told you this crap?
To protect the interest and property of wealthy Anglos. That is all. No more no less.
@@howiegruwitz3173 The Supreme Court has ruled several times that cops are under no obligation to protect citizens if they don't want to. Officers are, according to precedent, not required to protect you even if you are in imminent and severe danger.
Which to them does not include POCs who choose to classify white. You are not Anglos. That goes for Ellis Islanders also. Fresh of the boats, too.
@@howiegruwitz3173 they don’t. Look it up. They have no obligation to protect anyone unless they’re in custody. That’s a decision directly from the Supreme Court. It’s terrifying but that’s the way it is.
A little girl in the connecting room to where the shooter barricaded himself displayed more courage & bravery than the police. She took the cellphone from her dead teacher’s hand & dialed 911 multiple times asking for help! I believe she called at least 5-7 times! She also had the wherewithal to cover herself in blood from her classmates in order to appear deceased.She also helped muffle the cries of a classmate that was shot in the leg whenever the shooter started coming into her side of the room. This went on for over an hour! This is beyond heartbreaking, and to think there were only 2 days left in the school year.May all these 19 children & 2 teachers that lost their lives so senselessly RIP 🙏 and may all the survivors , their family,& community find the solace they deserve. We need to do better,it seems as though there has been one mass shooting after another.
She reminds me of the two teens at Astroworld who climbed up on stage to top the show to save lives.
I can't find info on this, you should make a video, I really want to know what happened to that girl and those in the room more specifically the timeline. This way it will be clear what the cost of the police mistake was.
@@drmichaelsunsschoolformath I think she survived, thankfully.

There is a startling increase in narcissists that are committing heinous crimes recently.
What an incredible magnificent explanation about these policemen enactment at this school shooting. This is why you are the best here Dr Grande.

As most members of the military know, cowardice is contageous and often leads to poor decisions. The officers on scene who now know they are not suited for police work should resign. I have noticed a change in law enforcement over the last 30 to 40 years, and it's not a good change. Everyone wants to live a long a fruitful life, but when you sign up for risky dangerous work you need to be willing to engage when necessary. It seems that police these days are quick to fire on just about anyone for little justifiable reason but when confronted with a heavily armed maniac committing murders, some of them seem dumbfounded as to what to do. We have all seen examples of police bravery and compassion, but we've also witnessed gross misconduct. I'm not sure what the solution is. I doubt if it will get any better.

Many cops act brave when they encounter people who commit misdemeanors, but in this case they failed miserably, smh. Rip to those kids, and both teachers, condolences to all the families.
I do wonder if your police were not routinely armed if they would be so 'brave' when attacking law-abiding civilians. Our police in the UK are not routinely armed, we have special units for armed work. But I suppose your insane gun culture makes that impossible.
@@alisonwilson9749 not my culture, I'm a citizen of America yes, but I don't make the laws, nor do I own a gun! You need to check yourself real quick like, and not make dumb ass comments as if it's my fault!
Exactly!!! When I was a kid, we had a local chapter of a renowned outlaw bikie gang in the neighbourhood. Those guys rode their (magnificent) Harleys around the ‘hood at three times the speed limit and the cops turned a blind eye. Instead, they were busy monstering scared 11 year old kids who didn’t have a light as well as a reflector on the back of their bikes. Goddamned yellowbellies!
Cops love to shoot your dog for no reason as well. I was in the Marines, infantry. I was also a teacher. That school had windows, they all do, and I saw the windows in the news video. It is standard procedure to take out a target from two different vantage points. Cops should have gone to the window and shot in some tear gas, then shot at gunmen or the ceiling to distract him and the other cops kick the down down and rush in. Why they didn't do that is beyond me.
Cops are only cops when they counter minorities and it's eight to one. America is a sick and sad place.
If police are really being trained to be "scared" or "fear" their jobs, then this is systemic failure. If you become scared in preparation for being PREPARED, then you need to pick a different job. Police are trained to be prepared, and cowardice has no place here. Very much disagree on the basis of the analysis of police duty.
Almost all police know it is their job to "shoot the bad guy" when the bad guy is shooting innocent people. It is irrational to fear your own death when you are the main thing society has put in place to fall on the sword in this particular case. Whoever was making the decisions in Uvalde was certainly a coward. At least border patrol still has some dignity left in their lives.
When cops are scared, then they can shoot you, so they are "scared" a lot of the time
I am from Uvalde, Texas. Thank you for covering this.
They went in and got their own kids while stopping others? That’s beyond cowardice.

Cops make to much money.

The Uvalde police officers were not cowards, they were paid to do THIS by God knows who.
@@gincal-abuelit8235 I can see how you would think this. The cops were so terribly incompetent, taking zero action to save those kids that it makes you explore conspiracies.
The fact that the department's story keeps getting backpedalled is truly telling. Not only did they not act out of cowardice, but they can't even own up to it. Like a child caught in a lie that they refuse to own up to.
Reminds me the amber heard trial
Well that's been typical 40 years and more
When this first happened they were saying on the news he had "no signs of mental illness", looks likes they misled us about that too. Though in fairness, if he wasn't in treatment they wouldn't be able to find out until they got to interview people who knew him.
They should be held accountable for their inaction and failure to control a weak ass perpetrator!
@Ken Ward come on, man, Trump is the archetype lying cry baby and you know it. The mayor, chief of police, governor, and leuitenant governor are all birds of a feather.
Wow, you hit the nail on the head, my friend!
I swear a God if I was there, I would put my life in danger to save those innocent kids!. These officers know it well, they signed that job and got paid to protect society's lives by risking their lives.
That is not what police officers do and is not what they are obligated to do. They do not have to rescue people or put other people's lives before their own. Do some research
@@hardtakeoffyou do your research. It’s their job. Their job is to protect. Why do you think we call them for help🤦♀️
The teachers put themselves in front of the students to shield them. The cops - trained in active shooter situations - wouldn’t even go in the school to save the kids.
Of course not, they’re not White and thus not worth the risk.
Because the police is only _brave_ when confronting those who they know cannot or can barely fight back.
did you listen to his explanation of why that might b
And yet those cops ha e better insurances, better Social Security, better 401Ks, better unions and definitely better checks than the teachers. The same teachers who basically YEETED themselves towards the gunman.
@@LadyCoyKoi *Theoretically,* cops’ higher salary is because the job is more dangerous, higher burnout, higher rate of injury and death on the job. The cops in Uvalde chose to stay safe and allow others to be in danger, despite having signed up for a job they knew is dangerous.
The officers that rescued there own children while leaving others in danger should face criminal charges of dereliction of duty. They shouldn't just loose their jobs. They should face criminal penalties because when you take on the role as guardian of your community you should consider all children as your own.
You can't. Unfortunately police officers are not obligated to defend a human life. People need to understand people that being a police officer is basically a job nobody wants to do anymore the training's low the pay is low and the respect is super low. What kind of people do people think that's going to draw in.
@@joshboyfuture9698 stop making excuses for cops, everyone needs to know they’re not your friends, they are part of the state
Agree!!
No offense but if you were in a life or dead situation where you can save either your OWN children or others most likely you would save yours. I agree that these cops were cowards but at that moment the father or mother comes out and you can’t care about anyone else safety
They're job is not to serve and protect, it's to uphold the law at their discretion.

hi from brasil doctor!
unfortunnatelly we are suffering from the same thing here
thanks for this wide landscape about this cases
thanks for dont show the scenes in your channel
The police should be ashamed of themselves, they let those kids and teachers die. Heartbreaking and infuriating.
They should be put behind bars. Their negligence and cowardice costed us the most valuable thing as human beings, meanwhile we are supposed to pay for their "work", their training, equipment, salaries and everything. Truly disgusting.
“Ashamed” is not a strong enough word. They should have not applied to be police in the first place.
Whoever that leaded them (the chief) should be locked up.
If he was unable to define how dangerous it was, possibly he should never be placed in such important positions
It was disgusting how they handled it and how they tried to cover it . Gross
they should be fired. Ashamed isnt nearly enough, they went in to get their own children while allowing others to die
Crooked 👮♀️
They're not ashamed, they consider cop lives more valuable than kids and teachers, that shouldn't surprise you.
Basically, what we saw in Uvalde was a bunch of cops protecting a mass shooter while he murdered a bunch of little kids.
They secured the building, ensuring that no one who wanted to stop him from shooting those kids was allowed to get in.
That’s why I believe the government is behind most mass shooting to push their agenda
Sadly true Declan
spot on
@@gavinstevenson3126 Definitely I have no doubt.
They'll kill as many children as they need to kill to reach their objective.
Wow if I ever heard words of truth these are them ! You said it , to prevent anyone from entering & stoping the shooter , I never looked at it as this but it's more then clear to me now ! They secured the building until his programed task was done ! Kudos to you for opening the eyes of us all !
Brilliant presentation.
Another great one! Thank you
Imagine being handcuffed while your child is in danger that close to you. Those parents will never recover.
If the parents showed up with guns the cops probably would've shot all the parents while their kids were inside being murdered like sitting ducks
I would have lost it. God be with them
Thank you for your analysis,,🙏
My mom told me something she heard on the news that sent chills up my spine she said the news said some of the parents had to go in to identify there kids by there shoes because there heads were decapitated. When she said that I felt hairs stand up on my arms and legs
To enter a career where you are expected to encounter danger, and fail to act when the lives of the most innocent are on the line is the most unforgivable cowardice. If you can’t do the job, at least don’t interfere with those who will.
Police don't require to save people in danger
Exactly, it is not cowardice to stop Border Patrol who arrived at 12:10PM and hold them back for an hour. It is not cowardice. It is not waiting for the tactical team, because they were there already. It was not waiting for body armor or whatever poor excuse, because the tactical team was there with everything needed and ready to go or assist in any way possible.
@@walterrising4276 But they are required to uphold the law i.e. don’t let someone have the time of their lives murdering little kids
@@walterrising4276 true, it's not a lawful obligation, but it is a MORAL obligation. These coward police conveniently ignored the latter
@Jackie McCall
"To enter a career where you are expected to encounter danger"
Even though most police officers don't encounter spree killers during their entire career.
"fail to act when the lives of the most innocent are on the line"
You've confused not doing what you wanted them to do with not doing anything.
"is the most unforgivable cowardice."
Says the armchair general.
"If you can’t do the job, at least don’t interfere with those who will."
The idiots trying to run into the building couldn't do the job either.
They waited….for a key.
You have got to be kidding me. They don’t wait for a key when they execute no-knock warrants. They don’t wait for a key when there’s “reason to believe” that a crime is being committed. May I suggest that they had an inkling that a crime was in fact, being committed? That they were perhaps simply “in fear of their lives”? Kind of like all the small children frantically dialing 911?
The fact that some officers went in to rescue their own children proves that they were well aware of the nature of the situation at hand.
The much maligned word “woke”, is fitting for the general mood of much of the nation.
I don’t see a single thing wrong with people waking to the nightmare we’ve been living in, and finally stomping on the brakes. Demanding that at long last, the wax museum figures in Congress get off their asses and do their job. I, for one, am pretty sick of paying for them to hang around exchanging stock tips, meeting with lobbyists, getting in sound bites for campaign ads, and taking lovely extended “breaks”, that would have anyone else facing dismissal from their job.
I’m sick of their projection and pivoting, game playing and finger pointing. Please, for Pete’s sake, someone stop playing hot potato with the buck.
Edit: I’ve heard now, that a parent sneaked into the school, and got her kids out. I don’t know what the truth is. It does add to the absurdity of the situation.
That mom was placed in handcuffs, got out of handcuffs, jumped the fence and got her 2 kids. Can't blame her. I agree with all you've said. Truly heartbreaking. Thoughts and prayers are all the congressmen ever offer, no change
So far as cops " waiting for a key" uhmm why not go in the propped open door? Or bust the front door down
It will depend on how often they could hear a gunshot while they waited whether it was a hostage situation or murders were being committed and people were bleeding out. It will depend on how hard the person in charge was having to demand brave officers to stand down on what my opinion is of those officers but I’m quite sure that you would’ve had to shoot me to keep me from going in.
Thank you, Mama Petillo, for voicing the truth in a no nonsense manner. Everyone has a voice and must use it. All the platitudes from politicians is absolutely sickening. Beto O'Rourk stood up to them and his first amendment rights were violated. We're not going away.
Congress needs to get rid of “gun free zones”, allow teachers to arm themselves, get rid of CRT, end touchy feely PC police policies, stand up to the anti gun lobby and left wing media
Spot on Dr. Grande!
This case is why I truly believe that in school shootings, the nearest Green Beret, Navy Seal, Army Ranger or Marine Raider or anyone that's a veteran, should be running into that school. They will. And they will take down the perp immediately. So many of those kids could have been saved if it weren't for the fearful cops.
No one can accuse you of lacking courage, Dr.Grande. I had no idea about the background or the facts of this tragedy. I agree with you; none of us know how we will react under that kind of situation/pressure, but - damn!! None of those police officers should keep their jobs. I'm sickened and horrified at a whole new level after hearing ALL the facts. Thank you, Dr. Grande, for speaking TRUTH.😪💖
No, they did lack courage. 19 armed officers just sat to watch 20 kids get sprayed with bullets and did NOTHING to stop it. thats the ultimate price of cowardice. Miserable people in my eyes. Theyre shooting unarmed civilians left and right, but what happend when the duck shot back? They ran and hide while ELEMENTARY SCHOOL KIDS were being massacred. And even when they begged for help to save their lives they did nothing. They should be held accountable just the same way they hold us accountable.

The reason I consider an action cowardly is not because it was committed under the influence of uncontrollable fear. It's only cowardice if the fear is controllable and one fails to control it.
I'm a teacher, my first year teaching was in a rough school where we went on lockdown multiple times for various reasons.
Every time, I knew that I would lay down my life to protect my students if necessary.
Over a decade later, teachers and students are trained every school year in multiple emergency scenarios including active shooter response.
I know how to secure the building if there is a threat.
Several teachers and I have an unwritten pact that we will take down any active shooter.
I am 42 / F math teacher.
We show up at work every day prepared to sacrifice our lives for our students.
I'm very sad to learn the LEOs who responded to this were not.
Be careful. Those drills tend to eventually go Live. This school had that type of drill a couple of weeks before it went Live.
It’s not their job apparently, it’s their job to arrest and pepper spray parents whose children are being shot
Every school should have had security guards or police. And the gate should have been locked.
School I went to allowed teachers to carry and they had a plan of action they practiced during drills. If you’re school allows it, it’s something that is highly recommended
It's easy to say that, much more difficult in a real life situtation.
I can’t believe the police didn’t save the children and handcuffed and pepper sprayed upset parents instead, but made sure to save their own children. They should be sued! Maybe they’re not soldiers and no one really wants to do that job, but if they don’t want to actually do the job they shouldn’t be allowed to just ignore that a classroom of little kids is being murdered. And this was a huge event that will be in history books and that the entire world is now aware of. This is almost crossing the line of acting like criminals instead of police. It certainly wasn’t a heroic act. I guess it was good of them to decide to do something after 2 dozen people had been killed an hour after the shooting started, but it sure took a lot to motivate them into action. Every one of them should be fired, and it does seem like they deserve some kind of jail time. It’s similar to nurse standing there and watching 20 people in their care die and not even trying to do anything to help them.
Absolutely, great comparison with Nurses.
Nurse doesn't have flying bullets speeding towards them
Yeah, the pigs just literally conveyed to future school-shooters that they aren't gonna do shit once they arrive. Great job, pigs!
@@CalledHigher-ib8ce No excuse they should not have gone into law enforcement everyone knows THAT is a possibility.
I am pro-police. Because of that I realize they MUST be held accountable if they want the public trust and respect. Many, if not all of these cops should be jailed for decades at the minimum. This is despicable behavior.
Thank you for you point of view
Someone really needs to come up with a protocol to identify and stop these psychopaths. I'm always shocked how many red flags there are... Especially in a social media age, these guys are often literally telling you what they want to do!
Yes, a society where we are monitored and jailed on our thoughts, sounds great.
@@hardtakeoffonly way we can all be safe 😊
@@georgewbush9326 What a dangerous delusional thought. Who exactly gets to “identify who needs to be stopped”?
One of the mothers the police handcuffed got out of her handcuffs, jumped the fence and located her children and escaped with them. Shame on the police. I hope the parents file the mother of all lawsuits against the police.
She didn't get out of her handcuffs. She was released from them.
As much as I wish the parents to win a lawsuit against the Uvalde PD, I predict that when that case reaches the Supreme Court it will rule in favor of the police ruling "The police had no duty to protect (those kids)". The SCOTUS has been ruling this consistantly case after case for decades. example cases include but not limited to: Waren V DC, Gonzales V Castle Rock, Lozito V NYC, and even Parkland the SCOTUS ruled in response to the suit regarding the school resource officers standing outside the building during that rampage shooting "The police have no duty to protect those outside their custody".
Good Mom

These Police officers acted unlike any Cops I know ,they went after the parents but not willing to go in after the Shooter ,this whole situation and killings seemed to be Orchestrated for Political purposes and those 19 babies and 2 teachers were sacrificed!!!
If you as a Police Officer leave children to bet slaughtered by a deranged shooter. Then you had no right to wear a badge at all.
.....but some of the police made the decision to save they own children and leave others kids in harm's way. So shameful.
I think your analysis was not only right on...... But very insightful as well.
Wow great analysis as always. I just learned that the police officers were there and aware of the situation before any student called police.
These children were taught to call 911 to get help, when they did call, help didn't come when they asked.... I cant imagine how any of those surviving children will trust law enforcement or any adults really ever again... 😓
Yeah rhe kids cried out for help yet the ones who should have been there failed them miserabl...
And they shouldn't trust law enforcement, law enforcement is not here to serve and protect. Legally they have no obligation to protect the public. Look it up, they have a Supreme Court ruling that says they do not have to protect life. They are an army for the government and revenue generators. They occasionally keep the peace but if their life is at risk to do so they can put their interests first.
The one little girl says she didn’t wanna talk to any men
If it were a predominantly white school there would have been an immediate violent response
Bingo. It should be no mystery whatsoever to any serving officer in this country why so few people trust them. If good cops want to be treated like good cops, they need to OUST THE BAD COPS.
How many of those babies were laying in pain desperately waiting to be saved.
What the police did was unacceptable. Each one needs to be held accountable.
But the saved THEIR kids.

I’ve heard this claim, but I can’t find a credible source for verification.
@@richrelaxes1154 Same
I guaranty the Sheriff will NOT be re-elected
@@richrelaxes1154 one of the cops literally says it in a news interview.
Very good evaluation.
“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”
The fact police detained parents who wanted to go in & do the job **they** were too chicken shit to do themselves… yet still went in to save their own kids… is unfathomable.
May they reap what they have sown.
They need to be held accountable!
Could not agree MORE .
Grown ass men who are supposed to be pros....are scared of an 18 yr old.
I know hell isn't real. There is no god, but if there is one thing I wish for in this lifetime, is that I sincerely hope that there is a great suffering waiting for them somewhere, when they finally die.
