After Uvalde, how can we prevent the next mass shooting? Former counterterrorism coordinator John Cohen explains how attacks like the Texas elementary school shooting can be prevented.

As President Joe Biden left Mass at a Catholic Church in Uvalde, Texas, on Sunday afternoon, he walked over to a crowed of people outside chanting,"Do something."Biden and first lady Jill Biden attended Mass at Sacred Heart Catholic Church. As they entered the sanctuary, Jill Biden reached out and lightly touched the hands of several people seated along the aisle as she and the president made their way to their seat in the first-row pew.

The 66-year-old woman, who police said was allegedly shot in the head by her grandson, is being treated at University Hospital in San Antonio, officials said. Some arrived with heavy equipment, others with whatever they could carry as they ran to the scene on foot. The Texas Department of Public Safety has said the incident commander wrongly believed the shooting had stopped.

The tactical team went in at 12:50 p.m. CDT and fatally shot the suspect, 77 minutes after the shooting started, officials said.

Looks like everything IS bigger in Texas especially the cowardice of the Uvalde police Dept who stood by without action allowing the vile shooter all the time he needed to murder 22 innocents They saved themselves though According to the sheriff that's all that counts SHAME! 😡

The shooter was picked on by other children /teenagers. This is the root cause of the shootings. Children and teenagers who are “ Bullies “. When parents stop their children and teenagers from Bullying other children and teenagers. The shooting will stop.

All hat and no cattle.

y que van a hacer? los niños no van a regresar 💔

With porous border, will stringent gun control laws work? The black market will thrive and bad guys can lay hands on illegal arms easily bypassing the stringent US gun control laws if implemented. First secure your home (border) , then clean your house( country)

Yes. Those cops were ass

They stood there inside fir 40 MINUTES! Police and all their “swat” gear and military grade equipment that costs tax payers $$$$$$$ and we get cowards who only shoot unarmed men and children. Stop it by letting the parents go in and rescue the children if police are too coward.

GROG! Get Rid Of Guns!

How do we stop a mass shooting? Thoughts and prayers bruh

The school should have been lockdown once 911 calls aboit a shooting across the street came in. According to some timelines, this would have given the school 10 minutes to prepare before the shooter came in.

USA n the world are passing laws in abomination to Gods laws. If they continue to do so Leviticus 26:14-17..if u do not do all my commandments...I will appoint over u terror, consumption, the burning ague...cause sorrow of heart..' Time to repent ask YHVH's mercy n forgiveness.

Talk about bullying!

Have national guard all schools.

Already copycat killers r out in force trying to become the next diabolical menace. Internet is buzzing w/ ominous threats of massacres by those who would be infamous We will almost certainly see more carnage in this fever pitch of bad +malicious intentions See something say…

No one is listening to this person who actually studies the problem. I would wager it doesnt help politically one side more than the other. Thats the real shame.

I got an idea don’t sell a 18 year old a gun. or anyone a gun police and military included! PTSD isn’t worth killing anyone over.

I think I heard that someone left the door propped open. So don’t do that for starters.

Vote for Democrats.

Gun control. That's how. Don't need a 'counterterrorism' 'expert' to comment on this.

Yeah, that's the answer, we will just militarize everything.

We ask we get angry for a couple of days then move on with our lives I say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

Prayer is the only answer, I’ve been told that by every member of GOP and they would never lie/mislead.

Why this is randomly happening now in America?

Very easy secure schools. Schools are easiest thing to secure.Big question is why taking so long after years and years and years of school shootings. Proving my point Democrats always put your children in line at Fire. But you keep sending your children to unsafe schools

Remember- This school was a shining beacon of all the things Republicans say will help stop mass shootings. Armed security gaurd on duty, cops not far away and kids even did active shooter drills weeks prior. It all still failed. 🤷

I literally would of ran into the school like Shawn Penn in mystic river running in the park through the cops.

It’s a huge mystery only every other nation on Earth has been able to solve.

You can't

Stop allowing everyday people to buy guns!

GunControl WarOnDrugs are failures let us pursue action that will be effective! SecureSchools and SchoolSafetyOfficers The removal of God from schools has led to the amorality of our children and SchoolShootings UnintendedConsequences PrayerInSchools

Scummy KenPaxtonTX has been under Federal Indictment for SEVEN YEARS. No trial. The DoJ should look into that.

We ask this every time....and we do nothing every time....

Gun control people it’s not ducking rocket science !!!!!

Uvalde shooting pushes Texas teachers to breaking pointTuesday’s school shooting is a tragic end to a terrible year for Texas teachers who faced two COVID-19 surges, staffing shortages, school boards fights, book bans. I swear, it seems that present day teachers are the whiniest group of government employees in the world. They have become more immature than the kids they are suppose to teach. It's a job, stop complaining. Let’s all understand that elementary kids applied their training in a horrific school shooting, being silent, calling 911, using blood from a dead classmate to appear dead, while trained police officers with guns and body armor sat outside the door and let them be executed.
