Poorly Trained And Prepared Cowards With A Badge And Gun
TX: Unfortunately, the Uvalde massacre on Tuesday, May 24, 2022 at the Robb Elementary School in which 19 students, mostly Mexican-Americans between the ages of 8 to 11 and two teachers were murdered by a lone 18-year-old domestic shooter from Uvalde showed the nation how 40 heavily armed law enforcement officers including Uvalde police officers and the Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District (CISD) police stood around for at least 45 minutes before a brave U.S. Border Patrol agent took it upon himself along with three other Border Patrol tactical agents to storm into the sieged elementary school where a lone armed gunman with a AR-15 rifle was barricated in a classroom and finally take out Salvador Rolando Ramos, 18, the crazed shooter.
Although some of the law enforcement officers helped get some school children out by breaking windows, even their own children attending the school within the 45 minutes others just stood by.
Many parents who arrived at the scene pleaded with law enforcement to storm the school and save the children to no avial. Heavily armed law enforcement officers just stood around and did nothing for at least 45 minutes, but instead turned against the parents by handcuffing a mother, tackling a father to the ground and macing others simply because they were criticizing police for doing nothing while school children were being killed inside the school.
These 40 heavily armed law enforcement officers that stood around and did nothing while Mexican-American children were being killed inside two adjacent 4th grade classrooms will be forever be remembered as poorly trained and prepared "Cowards with a Badge and Gun", who failed to follow the already established domestic school shooting protocol, to immediately storm into the school to saves lives.

Three police officers and 17 other victims were also reported injured with non-life-threatening injuries.
Update: On Friday, Steve McGraw, Chief of the Texas Department of Public Works confirmed that Pete Arredondo, the Chief of Police of the Consolidated Independent School District Police in Uvalde treated the school shooting crisis as a barricated incident rather than an active shooter situation. Arredondo made a mistaken decision to withhold heavily armed law enforcement officers from storming into the school to neutralize the active shooter, according to McGraw who seemed to throw Arredondo under the bus and making it seemed that the majority of those armed law enforcement officers were just following orders, but in reality, they lacked any common sense and instead cowardly remained silent and did not challenge Arredondo's decision not to storm the school and save children.
Arredondo was elected to the Uvalde City Council three weeks ago with 70% of the vote, according to news reports. He will be sworn-in to the Council on Tuesday, May 31, 2022.
