I sure hope that is not the case. They key points here are how long after entry did the resident "School Resource Officer" (SRO)take to engage and what was the timeline from initial breaching, engagement by the SRO and final kill shot by the Border Patrol Officer who took a crease to his melon.. Only then would a comment be valid.
Reports are that he was engaged by SRO before he ever made it inside, after he crashed his vehicle, and somewhere around an hour later he was shot by BP.

'Let’s Rush In Because The Cops Aren’t Doing Anything': Frustrated Parents Debated STORMING Texas School To Stop Shooter
Newly released footage from Tuesday’s tragedy at a Texas elementary school shows frantic parents yelling at law enforcement officials and debating whether or not to enter the school themselves to stop the active shooter, Radar has learned.
On Tuesday, as an active shooter murdered 19 children and 2 adults at the Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, frustrated parents were outside fighting with police and questioning why the authorities were not inside the elementary school stopping the gunman.
“What are you doing? Get inside the building!” one angry parent can be heard screaming.
“They're trapped inside!” another parent shouts as screams of panic reverberate in the background.
Although it is not known what time this newly released footage was taken, the first 911 call reporting the tragic shooting was at 11:32am, and the shooter was not killed until 1pm, suggesting the tragedy lasted nearly two hours before law enforcement officials were successfully able to stop the rampage.
Recent reports also revealed that Customs and Border Patrol agents who first arrived to the scene struggled to stop the shooter because they couldn’t obtain the key to the classroom where the shooting was taking place.
By the time the agents successfully stopped the shooter, 21 people were already dead.
“Let's just rush in because the cops aren't doing anything like they are supposed to,” Javier Cazares, whose 10-year-old daughter Jacklyn was killed in the shooting, said. “More could have been done. They were unprepared.”
“There was at least 40 lawmen armed to the teeth but didn't do a darn thing until it was far too late,” he continued. “The situation could've been over quick if they had better tactical training, and we as a community witnessed it firsthand.”
As RadarOnline.com reported, an 18-year-old since identified by police as Salvador Ramos entered the Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas and opened fire shortly after 11:30am.
When Ramos was killed nearly two hours later, 19 children and 2 adults had been killed.
"It is believed that he abandoned his vehicle, then entered into the Robb Elementary School in Uvalde with a handgun, and he may have also had a rifle," Texas Governor Greg Abbott said in a statement following the attack.

Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.
40 lawmen, armed to the teeth, almost 2 hours. Hmmmmmmm, worse than I originally thought. I can't think of any good reason the parents and onlookers would lie about this, what is their motive to lie?

Other than a misconception that IF (big if) they were unaware other officers were already inside, of course we should believe them. Like I've said, the timeline will tell the real story, except of course for the kook brigade's "almost as if it was planned" nonsense.

Yea, I don't buy into the "it was planned" nonsense.
Unconscionable tragedy struck the once-quiet community of Uvalde, Texas, on Tuesday morning. Situated eighty miles west of San Antonio and just over fifty miles from the U.S.-Mexico border, Uvalde was a place hardly known to anyone outside the tiny Texas vicinity before yesterday.
However, in the span of a few minutes, the name has become synonymous with so many other fateful towns like Columbine and Sandy Hook.
Videos that surface this morning show angry parents that are begging the police to react and if they don’t do anything they wanted to let the parents react.
Frantic parents of the children murdered in their Texas school screamed at law enforcement officers to enter the school and discussed storming the building to rescue their kids, harrowing footage shows, as it emerged that the gunman was only stopped when authorities obtained a key to open the classroom door.
New footage shows the chaotic crowd outside the school, as heavily-armed sheriffs and law enforcement stand guard and hold them back – in one case, seemingly wrestling a panic-stricken woman to the ground and pinning her down.
‘What are you doing? Get inside the building!’ one person can be heard screaming.

Wow
Rio Grande Valley is a Democratic stronghold. The Uvalde school district defiantly said "No!!!" when a few people wanted to arm the teachers. Now, we see the results of letting Democrats running the show: dead children.

Just my observations on that video.
It was way back in the parking lot and had police tape, and officers keeping frantic parents out of the crime scene. No shots were heard in the video, so it's probably after the shooting was over.
At what point do you think it's wise to let unarmed (or armed) emotional parents into a crime scene?
The officers in that video were simply keeping people away from the scene. Not hiding from any shooter.

Just the fact the parents even had time to get there while he was still shooting is quite telling.
At least one shot can be heard in the beginning of this video.

EXCELLENT post that will fall on blind eyes...SHALOM..

I'm beginning to think that the shooter should be dragged outside DEAD, ASAP, when these tragedies occur. Run his body up the nearest flagpole or tree and leave it there for the locals to use as a pinata.

Was he shooting one every 2 minutes, or did he shoot them all in the first minute or two?
Does that really make a difference? Seems to me that if you take an oath to protect and serve, you need to protect and serve. And if that means going in as soon as you arrive on the scene to make sure he's not shooting any more children, that's what you took an oath to do.
If that oath was upheld, we’d be in much better shape in this country. I think the death squad in Magnum Force had it right.
