People have said these things. We know this. What's new.... anything? AR47 or AR-15?

What we know about the Uvalde victims who were hospitalized
Of those 17 [survivors who were injured], six remained hospitalized as of Monday, including one in serious condition, one in fair condition and three in good
condition. The sixth patient‘s condition is unclear.
The Uvalde Memorial Hospital said it treated 15 patients in the aftermath of the shooting — 11 children and four adults — while
two additional children that arrived at the hospital were declared dead on arrival.
Seems to me, there is a lot of fake news floating around. Maybe people have an agenda.
With Her Police Officer Husband In Final Moments, Judge Says
Uvalde County judge Bill Mitchell said officials had briefed them about some of the final moments that slain teacher Eva Mireles shared with her husband Ruben Ruiz, a police officer who was outside the school when she died.
Yet,
we hear she died in the ambulance.
I just watched
the unedited video of the whole thing, from start to finish, and I am glad I did, although it left me feeling sick to my stomach - sick to my stomach at those calling for the badge, and blood of those officers.
I sat and watched those men go toward gunfire from an automatic rifle. One officer was ready to take on the gunman, but the guy had no backup from his colleagues. He had no protection but his vest, which couldn't save him from a barrage of bullets from the gunman's rifle.
They definitely were not a tactical team.
He even injured himself moving away as bullets ricocheted off the wall.
I sat and watched officers train their rifles at the door, and I can imagine what could have been going through their mind... "What if a child runs through that door? What if that happens and I pull the trigger? What if I hesitate, and the gunman appears... shooting? What if...
The adrenaline must have gone into overdrive.
I did see them use ways to distract the gunman.
They planned... of course, and stationed men with rifles at the windows, just before the team in the corridors donned their gas masks, armed themselves with canisters, and
non-"rifle rated" shields, and moved toward the door... after a volley of shots, which I assume was the distraction from the men at the windows.
If I assumed correctly, that plan failed.
The doors were locked. Someone talked about shooting the door... again, I assume the reason they discarded that idea... They are in a corridor, with a team of officers, and we know what bullets do when they hit metal, or steel.
We know what bullets do, when they hit wood too. Children are inside.
The officers then wait for the keys.
It took about 40 minutes to get the correct key. Was that the cops' fault? You decide.
By that time, the large shield arrived - "rifle rated". I could tell the difference. It was heavy.
When they finally got the right key for the door, they went in. There was a lot of gunfire - more than 20 shots fired.
They got the guy.
I would not say these cops stood around doing nothing.
What was sickening to me too, is to realize that the CNN cast, looking for something to criticize, zeroed in on a cop sanitizing his hands
10 minutes after the tactical team went to the door of the classroom.
What was the man supposed to do... Go up to the door and yell, "Open Sesame"?
They really went overboard in their condemnation.
Which brings me to the other lie circulating in the media.
We hear that police waited around, and
failed to stop the massacre.
Yet,
when the cops arrived, the massacre was over.
The gunman mowed down the classrooms in just 3 minutes.
The cops arrived just before he fired the last 100 rounds.
One girl said, "...he walked around the class, shooting everyone in sight.
She said the gunman then went to the connected room next door and continued shooting.
Drastic measure huh. I wonder what those are.
I am glad no cops were hurt,
(just a minor injury of the officer who hit his head, or was hit on the head with something) or killed.
I commend their efforts, and understand their fears.
I see the dangers they face, and the measures they take to continue they work.
Ballistic shields: A 'must have' for street patrol
A ballistic shield is not always recognized as a necessity until it is too late and an active shooter situation has occurred
“Departments are calling for ballistic shields because their patrol officers are often the first people that might have to handle an active-shooter situation. They should have something to protect themselves further other than a vest,” Thomas said.
If more police are killed in the line of duty, sooner or later, there would be no policemen, as they would all be either dead, resigned, or not available... and none of the critics, here, or anywhere else will say, "Okay. I'll take on the bad guys."
I'm also glad to hear that of the 15 injured, 12 or 13 will likely live.
Speak for yourself.
You cannot speak for the children out there.
How would you know that?
Even people who are blinded mentally, by demons do not even know they are saying what they do not know. So, how would you know?
I quoted no ancient fiction.
Why do you constantly say
what you believe as though it is actually factual? Do you imagine yourself as some god sitting outside the realms of the universe?
There we go. That's what you believe.
It's not true because you believe it.
Knock knock. Any of that registered?
Great! I hope you know why.
This cop should know better. Does he think he is on a movie set? He could have been injured, or worst.
About 20 minutes
before the cops with shields arrived.
Didn't look that way to me, but if you consider it 'standing around'....what did you want them to do. I hope you didn't want them to shoot up the place.
The "kids" acted wisely, with thinking ability. They played dead when the gunman started shooting.
They could have charged at the gunman, and said.... "To the rescue. Here I come". .. but they weren't stupid (not saying the woman was stupid, just that her emotional reaction caused her to take action she later realized... hopefully, was stupid).
Even
one girl was sensible enough to keep her mouth shut... and she didn't get shot.
She said,
"He shot the girl next to me, and she said, ‘I’ve been shot!’ And, I didn’t want to say anything because I didn’t want him to come over and shoot me. So, I stayed quiet. He came back and shot her again because she wouldn’t be quiet."
I didn't say that. You can read, I'm sure? So please read what I said, instead of claiming your ideas came from me.
Wow.
I really hope billions of people do not act on emotional responses that override thinking ability.
I hope they go play Lemmings instead, and have the sense to understand, it's just a game.
Why did you bring it up then?
