Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Texas DPS Official Admits ‘Wrong Decision’ in Police Response to Uvalde School Shooting

That is a mute point when you have an incident commander who won't let a response team go in.

It doesn't sound like the UPD SWAT team was even deployed, as the team that was assembled on the incident site only had a couple of them, a Zavala County deputy, and 3 BORTAC from border patrol.

Sounds like SWAT teams need to be like Fire Departments... Subject to being on call with a rapid response time.

Not only that, but put someone in charge who knows enough to send the hammers in after the nail.

That five foot one female in the front would scare the daylights out of any terrorist.

Anytime where you have a situation where “no you can’t get back in here, you have to walk all the way around the building instead” you’re gonna have doors propped open.

I see nothing sinister.

I’m in a public high school, doors get propped open all the time. Mostly by the students, and usually un-propped by teachers and staff, who generally have keys/swipe ID’s to get in.

Add to that that years go by with nothing bad happening. People get complacent

Have they released that idiots name yet?

Worthy to NOTE: A dumbfugk teacher left the door propped open.

Sinister not needed. Stupidity was clearly enough to get 19 kids and 2 teachers murdered.

Scum was outside shooting for 12 minutes when the teacher opened the door and left it open to go to their car. 12 minutes to go to your car and return? Without hearing gunshots and thinking "Hmmm, I wonder what that is?"

A woman teacher, and we all know that women have the situational awareness of cucumber. Kodiakisland and few other clam apologists will along soon.

Any word on why/how the truck got wrecked?

I don't think it was a woman teacher.

Firing ain't enough for some of them.

Besides the public humiliation, those who contributed to the death count by either negligence or cowardice need to be held accountable.

Other people in the same positions in other towns and places need to pay attention. Everyone needs to learn not only what to do in this instance, but what not to do.

Nothing will bring those kids back. But maybe others can be saved.



Just one simple thing can change the outcome. Imagine if the nutjob could not have gained access. Or if the first cops there had gone in with the first 6-7 cops?

Totally agree.



But the pic still makes a point in many ways....

Aside from that they spent plenty of money equipping that
"SWAT" team and got a nice picture from their tax payer paid investment for public safety.
👍👍👍

And you could be right, I'm only going by what I've read.

"At 11:27, we have video evidence that the exterior door where we knew the shooter Ramos entered was propped open by a teacher," Steve McCraw, director of Texas Department of Public Safety, told reporters Friday. He said the teacher had gone to her car to get her cellphone."
