Uvalde... Who's at fault


In regards to the action by police in Ulvalde. I am interested in the mayor or school board or police commission, city, county, or State jurisdiction. I have an opinion about how local governments are run. This is a perfect situation for someone to investigate. In any given locale the politics doesn't matter Democrats and Republicans do the same thing.. but I believe there are some places where the local governments are in cahoots..with county and State governments. I believe Texas is one of those places. Once the Republican party has a hold ...it's power is derived from the bottom up.. and The policies of State legislatures and governor are forced upon local governments to play ball
They insure people are put in authority that support the structure's loyally of local governments in Texas.. They support wealthy at the expense of middle class and poor, at the expense of people of color and opposing view points, Finding who is the REAL power in Ulvalde is essential to determine what will prevent such action.. I have no doubt the mayor failed in making security a primary function. The money went elsewhere.. Check the city offices and city buildings... check the city contracts......see who benefits... Check the schools, The health and human services, and the police. I can pretty much guarantee you rich white people in Ulvalde are getting richer.....And trickle down economics is not just a result.. it's a policy. That's they way it is in TEXAS.

My Gosh there is enough blame to go around..
Blame the Federal government.
Blame the State government,
Blame the City and county government
Blame the police force
Blame the school..

It's interesting to me about who's to blame... Who need to take the responsibility in a Democracy... Why did this happen, this way in Uvalde?

First blame goes to the citizens of Uvalde
Next blame to the citizens of Texas
Next blame to the citizens of the United States.

"WE the people".. are responsible for our city, our State, and our Federal Government. Yeah a great country.. That hasn't taught the 75% Hispanic in Uvalde What their responsibility is.. What democracy is.. and the power they can wield in Uvalde.

Who did that? Texas did that

Too bad the shooter was not a victim of abortion rather than the bullet that sent him to hell.
Or you could blame sperm.
Party On!

That kid was mentally unstable when after hi9s 18 birthday he bought an AR-15 and 1000 round......WTF did any one think he was going to do.

WE could get rid of all the Ar-15... by taking them away from the mentally unstable..
and the mentally retarded!

WTF is wrong with you?.. other than the fact you live in Texas.

WTF is wrong with you? Always the blame game! The gun didn't do it! He could have taken an SUV and mowed people down and killed them like the crazy dude did in Wisconsin, or even the guy who used a truck and killed 28 people in the UK!

Did the vehicles just start up and decide to kill people? Maybe we should get rid of those too? How about hammers? Get rid of those too!

You don't like Texans? No one GAF!!

The "good guys" with a gun, nineteen of them, stood just a few feet away outside the school while the shooter slaughtered these children for more than one hour while the parents beg them to get inside the school and save them.

The governor and the police repeatedly lied with their narrative. The entire police force, from chief on down needs to be in federal custody pending charges on the failure to act. In my opinion, it's on them as much as the shooter.

That is the problem ... No responsible adults with any of it. Kids r being babysat by technology. It's like R rated games, movies, etc. Not even the person who sold the killer the guns. That is my thoughts on it. They train U for all kinds of things, but don't care about selling weapons. Geez I was in my 40's and got carded buying alcohol. They have all these stupid things to do to get attention on social media. TikTok, Twitter, Yubo, makes no sense. Just pass the buck on whose fault it is ! that's what they do

Texans have nothing to do with it..
It's Texas..and the way the State is run, and the State patriotism that is phony as a three dollar bill
Texas is a countryless state. The United States of America..will never be good enough for Texas
Texas is the "Lone" Star state.
In the name of Texas.. what people put up with in that state is fricken amazing.
California, New York, Florida, and Alabama.....all have their problem.. All are members of the United States.. In those States, the people can control the State
But not in Texas.. the State controls the people....subtly and underhanded. There is no state in America that the people have less of a say.

Texas... Jesus and John Wayne

Where woman make babies . yet have no control over their own body
Where men are measured by the size of their cowboy hats and length of their guns.
Where Hispanic have no voice and black people are herded
Where you don't need a reason to hate.. just the bible.
Where rich people sell their soul for no state taxes

Koffla your opinion that the law is guilty as the shooter is the stupidest statement in Jiminys blame blog.
The shooter is responsible for all the killing. He initiated the event.

So should we now defund the police or take away the officers weapons?

Methinks the stupidest thing I heard is anyone defending the inaction of the cowards "good guys" with a gun. I listened to a Texas lieutenant defending the inaction of the police officers, saying they didn't enter the school as "they could've been shot". Bunch of cowards.

They were busy handcuffing and using taser to the parents begging the police to save their children outside the school, while the shooter slaughtered their children.

Defund the police? No, those "good guys" with a gun should go to prison and charged as accessory of murder.

No. but think of all the thoughts and payers, That satisfy the responsibility to it.. of all those on SFF... Except those Texans that see it as business as usual. Abortions, disasters, border crimes, Electric grid, voter suppression. election fraud, and trump supporters... A state problem..that always expects federal help, yet always blames the Federal government.. The political corruption in Texas is certain not less than other states.. Yet if it doesn't involve a democrat.. you never hear about it.. Texas is a giant cover-up...and a STATE of mind. That thinks what ours is just ours and what's yours (America) is ours too.

LOL, BS! You attack my state because you know I am correct about the fact that mentally unstable people will use anything as a weapon if they get it in their head to kill people. So what do you do? You change the subject!

Listen.. you're a hypocrite and a Liar..

I can accept it's mental illness causing this.. I agree with you...
Now tell me the action you take because of it..

Tell me how you can keep guns out of the hands of the mentally ill....If you don't support background check and red flag laws.. Are we going to attempt to identify who is mentally ill, then not have the tools to do anything about it?

But your real point is.. if your mentally we can't so anything about it.. you'll find a way. kids die because that's the way it is.
So do nothing....but carry an AR-15 and out gun them.

LOL, now you call me names. Why? Because you know I'm correct. Typical for you.

Even if we could figure out who was unstable and got all the guns away from the nut cases, now tell me what we are going to do about the criminals who kill people everyday? How do we get the guns out of their hands? Do you really think cops are going to go into a bad neighborhood and collect all the guns from the gangs? Nope, not going to happen. More deaths are caused by handguns than rifles, and BTW, knives kill more people than guns. Look it up!
