Officers in Uvalde, Texas, took more than an hour to kill a shooter who massacred 19 children. That lapse of time will likely be a key part of a Justice Department probe that could last months.

Justice Department officials probing the Texas slayings will examine a host of questions about the police response in Uvalde. A similar review that largely praised the response to the San Bernardino mass shooting was over 100 pages long.

A U.S. Border Patrol tactical team finally used a janitor’s key to unlock the classroom door and kill the gunman, raising more questions about the choice of entry. The review will also likely examine how well officers were prepared with gear like weapons and body armor. The shooter wore a tactical vest and was armed with an AR-15-style rifle, a powerful weapon capable of piercing basic bulletproof vests.

In San Bernardino, meanwhile, only one of the first officers on scene had a shotgun and several did not have body armor. But they still used their training on active shooter situations to form up in a four-officer team to immediately enter the complex.Moving quickly is important not only to stop a shooter from killing more people, but to help the wounded.

And the Texas”Boss” says it could have been worse Disgrace

About time that the so-called Justice dept did something

There was a bathroom and closet next to the classroom where the shooter was hiding. Why didn't the cops not cut a whole and enter from windows, door and closet at once?

Cowardice isn't a crime, yet, in the USA.

It's crazy because had he been running away cuffed or already on the ground he would have been shot immediately.

I get swat teams need time to plan how to make entry but a hour that is crazy

A probe that ends with 'recommendations' that have no teeth, no punishment for any of the cowards, and no methods to make anything safer. Waste of money so the govt can say it did something while actually doing nothing.

Cops didn't do shit. He shot himself. Save this tweet

I would still really like to know the name of the teacher who left that door open.

My AR your life. ComeAndTakeIt

FAKE!! WANT THE REAL TIME LINE At 7:56 am, this photo was taken of the training exercise. See all the emergency and cops? See the shadows? Liars. meta data shows the drone operator location. At a school counselors house around the corner. So happy nobody really died.

So why are parents let off the hook when kids are abused and neglected? Can we have some legislation to criminalize bad parenting? That would change the game! We love to blame the gun- but what about neglectful parents?

I don't want to play Devil's advocate, but I have to side with some law enforcement officials. If the school had been hardened and the staff appropriately trained (as they should have been), the shooting probably would have never happened in the first place. ⚖️

'The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the Government, and I'm here to help. '

These clowns want to puff out their chests and claim the mantle of 'hero' in every state whenever a cop is hurt. Now they get to claim the mantle of coward and baby killers.

I thought the dad with the shotgun killed him? Not the police…

These trivializations of guns has to stop because this kind of incidents show that no matter how trained you are when it comes to a life or death situation everything can go wrong and all the easy talk about how somebody can stop somebody else just because he has gun is nonsense

After reading posts I've come to the conclusion that there is widespread ignorance about firearms. This link to a brief instruction is informative, factual and unbiased, please take a gander before speaking another word.

'nianian good guy with a gun' if he had the time.

Is somebody going to tell them . . .

Lawless investigating cowards is an interesting twist for the justice department

Texas already “hardened” schools. It didn’t save Uvalde.After the Uvalde mass shooting, GOP leaders are again pushing to boost school security. But similar legislation after a 2018 school shooting has fallen short of its goals, and experts said there’s no evidence such tactics work. Republicans want to do anything they can to appear to be doing something that will not address the problem of gun violence in the country whatsoever Nothing on this planet will ever harden schools to the impenetrability of a Republican official's heart.
