Another school shooting?

[Winehole23]

Arredondo told the Texas Tribune's James Barragan and Zach Despart that he dropped his police and campus radios outside the school seconds after arriving at the northeast entrance of Robb Elementary, stating that he believed the tools would slow him down while responding to the shooter. Arredondo said that one of the radios had a "whiplike antenna" that would hit his side as he ran. Another he claimed was likely to fall off his tactical belt.


"My mind was to get there as fast as possible, eliminate any threats, and protect students and staff," Arredondo told the Tribune.


The chief pinned the blame for the 77-minute span between his arrival at the school and the elimination of Ramos primarily on officers' inability to find the correct key to the door of the classroom in which the shooter had locked himself. Over the course of the attack, he says he was given two different key rings to try.


"Each time I tried a key I was just praying," Arredondo said. However, few elements of Arredondo's version of events at Robb Elementary that day have been confirmed by other officers and personnel in the hallway with him.

Gunman killed at Duncanville Fieldhouse during summer camp, police say

An armed man who attacked a summer camp in Duncanville on Monday is dead after being shot by police. Around 250 children were at the camp at the Duncanville Fieldhouse, which went on lock-down after the gunman fired shots. Police said the gunman attempted to enter a classroom, but the door was locked. No children, staff or police were harmed, said Duncanville Assistant Chief of Police Matthew Stogner during a news conference. Stogner said police responded to the field house in the 1700 block of S. Main Street at 8:45 a.m., two minutes after receiving calls about shots being fired. The field house was the site of a summer camp for children between the ages of 4 and 14, he said.

Law enforcement operating in self-protective secrecy

Texas law enforcement officials appear to be quite sure that they don't want the public to see or hear any further details of how law enforcement responded to the Uvalde,

Uvalde families won't be getting answers—ever—if Texas law enforcement gets its way

a HOLE Texas "legal loophole" could be used

to block nearly all future information about the murders from being publicly released, indefinitely.

Currently, law enforcement is refusing to answer basic questions about why police delayed engaging the gunman even as children bled out on a classroom floor,

after initial law enforcement statements on what unfolded proved to be utterly false in nearly every detail,

out of deference to the ongoing "investigation."

Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine is poised to sign a bill on Monday allowing teachers to carry guns in class after 24 hours of training, over opposition from teachers and a police group. Backers say the policy will make schools safer, but critics say that's not the case, citing experts' analysis.

The new law dramatically reduces the amount of training a teacher must undergo before they can carry a gun in a school safety zone. Instead of more than 700 hours of training that's currently required, school staff who want to be armed would get training that "shall not exceed" 24 hours, House Bill 99 states.

"Shall not exceed"? Nothing will go wrong there

[Winehole23]

"Shall not exceed"? Nothing will go wrong there

creating an express lane for teachers with grudges.

the more threatened public places are by gun violence, the more guns are needed for protection. and when that leads to more violence, more guns will be needed again.

the signifier of security -- moar gunz -- pushes out security in the same way idolatry pushes out religious belief. the purpose vanishes and all that remains is a more or less supers ious attachment to the fetish.

creating an express lane for teachers with grudges

The bas s had grudges on me, by God. A gaggle of 'em thought they had me as graduation closed in. They thought I was short 1 credit because I'd been kicked out of an English class late in my Junior Year. But, I'd taken a Summer School class that Summer and repaired it, got it back. Come graduation time a gaggle of 'em ed up, went to the front end to protest my graduation ("He's short 1 credit!") and found out.

The price of ammo makes bump shooting problematic and the accuracy is severely affected. Nonetheless anything that causes an AR to fire more than one round from the intentional pull of the trigger (not recoil pull) should be outlawed based on the NFA.

Countdown till your post causes legislation to make that happen

Countdown till your post causes legislation to make that happen

Start a thread about it. It only requires an amendment to the NFA by the DOJ, it doesn't require legislation. You would know if you weren't so triggered by being put on a clock.
