I dunno, kind of seems like if there’s a gun that’s so scary that big bad armed/trained Texas cops don’t want to take on a single armed teenager, maybe that’s not a gun that the general public should be able to purchase? https://t.co/u9JXs1reM6

...the same way black parents have been doing as soon as their child can comprehend full sentences. https://t.co/kTTpZ7BnBp

It's why I hate most other gun owners. The culture is rancid and cringe as fuck. https://t.co/MHo8HKe6n8

We’re in the stage when Republican politicians hide and hope this blows over. Don’t let it. https://t.co/8LI0DhouDa

If an aggrieved relative does bodily harm to an Uvalde cop, Abbott should immediately pardon them & have their record expunged https://t.co/f3lrQBa3MC

Nothing says ban assault rifles like cops being scared of the shooter who has one.

the police are still figuring out their story. two days later, they're still working on an internally consistent lie. i almost wish they were faster at this so they could arrive at whatever bullshit narrative they want us to believe so they'll finally just stop talking.

This might mean something (but probably not) if y'all didn't repeatedly deny funding for mental health issues in this country. Paying lip service to something that is not the real issue anyway to avoid the guns conversation is cowardly and these parents deserve better. https://t.co/AsxIwKeLHk

If someone would just slap Ted Cruz for being a dipshit little weasel that would be great.

Police lie. All the time. Everywhere. Everyday. On routine paperwork. In conversations w/ prosecutors. To supervisors. In court. Under oath. In press conferences. To reporters. On TV. In legal filings in lawsuits. To victims and survivors of crime. Uvalde is nothing new.

Don't tell me police work is dangerous when police seem to have the option to skip the dangerous part when it suits them to let seven year olds act as human shields for them.

The Biden Admin just tried to launch a "department" that would look into radicalizing disinformation on social media, as he suggests here, and the GOP went berserk about it. https://t.co/VlgP2hPMJA

My favorite part about the reporting on the cops waiting outside while the shooter murdered a bunch of kids is how the country’s collective amnesia will kick in soon & criminal justice reformers will start getting pushback again when we try to implement long overdue police reform

“Let’s solve school shootings by allowing only one door in and out of every school” is so astoundingly, overtly stupid that I feel I’m being punked. It’s like an SNL skit. Too dumb to be funny.

Imagine thinking — knowing? — your supporters are such morons they’ll go for this.

I’m sorry, but this is fucked. The school district did have armed police officers onsite; the students did active shooter drills. None of it kept those 19 kids alive. The tired old horseshit you have recited over a decade has been implemented and doesn’t come close to cutting it. https://t.co/0KaJ8RYFXp

If any cop in Uvalde or anywhere else right now admits that they personally are unprepared to respond to an active shooter mass casualty event then throw the badge and gun on your desk and walk into traffic. You have all the goddamn resources at your fingertips.
