from 12:03pm to 12:51pm, MULTIPLE children called 9-1-1, begging for police to come.
48 minutes of pure, abject horror for these kids as the cops and border patrol DID ABSO-FUCKING-LUTELY NOTHING!!
They are accomplices to mass murder!

We needs wolves heading the DOJ and FBI
We need liberals with teeth who aren’t afraid to use them!
Make those who break the law actually fear Justice!
And yes. I’m referring to holding republicans to account for all their crimes against America

Republicans' statements on causes of Uvalde shooting. Have I missed any?
Republicans’ statements on causes of Uvalde shooting:
1) too many doors
2) unarmed teachers
3) “woke”’culture
4) critical race theory
5) mental illness
6) video games
7) rap music
(Yes. Those last two came up again!)
Anything. But. The. Gun.

It’s way past time to repeal the second amendment. It’s obsolete, not absolute
No child should have to endure THIS. Covered herself with blood from a classmate!
11-Year-Old Survivor of Uvalde Massacre Put Blood on Herself and Played Dead, Aunt Says
The girl's mother says "she saw her friend full of blood and she got blood and put it on herself"

"Around midnight my sister-in-law called me and she was just crying, like 'I think it just hit Miah. I think everything came to reality now,'" said Blanca Rivera.
Rivera said Miah's teacher, Irma Garcia, was one of the two teachers killed. Her friends and classmates were also targeted.
"Miah got some blood and put it on herself so she could pretend she was dead," said Rivera. "It's too much for me to play that scene over and over again, but that's what my sister-in-law said is that she saw her friend full of blood and she got blood and put it on herself."
Miah was injured but taken to the hospital and has been released.

He is a fourth-generation Irish American.[14] In his infancy, his family gave him the nickname "Beto", a common Spanish-Portuguese nickname for first names ending in "-berto", initially to distinguish him from his namesake grandfather.[
So, obviously, as an INFANT, he saw the political clout he'd gain by having a nickname that sorta kinda maybe might sound Hispanic while running for governor there one day.
Not that it should matter to ANYONE but here's how Beto O'Rourke got that nickname

WTF is wrong with this country?!
The cops were engaging parents MORE than they were trying to get to the shooter!
What?! A parent DID make it inside Robb Elementary after having been briefly HANDCUFFED
https://www.wsj.com/articles/uvalde-residents-voice-frustration-over-shooting-response-11653588161Ms. Gomez convinced local Uvalde police officers whom she knew to persuade the marshals to set her free. Around her, the scene was frantic. She said she saw a father tackled and thrown to the ground by police and a third pepper-sprayed. Once freed from her cuffs, Ms. Gomez made her distance from the crowd, jumped the school fence, and ran inside to grab her two children. She sprinted out of the school with them.
