Why Is Texas Law Enforcement Telling So Many Lies About Mass Shooting?

Uvalde Police Officers Allegedly Saved Their Own Kids From Robb Elementary Before Stopping Shooter

Police were outside the school for up to an hour before stopping the shooter.

"As details emerge about the tragic shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, police officers are facing backlash for what appears to be a slow response to reports of an active shooter on campus. A 911 call was later made by someone who saw a crashed vehicle near the school and a person with a rifle going into the school. While the police went to the scene soon after, it took them a while to go into the school. It was later revealed that some police officers went into the school to save their children first. A police officer admitted that the police went inside the school to save their children first rather than stop the shooter."

It is understandable that police officers would waste no time to go into the school and get their own kids to safety before confronting the shooter; these cops can't always be the first line of defense...the first line of defense in situations like these should always be the teachers, janitorial staff, school nurse and the children themselves......Does it look bad to the other parents who was prevented from going in to save their kids? I am sure it does....but they would do the same if they were cops....but why did DPS and other law enforcement officials tell so many lies??? For example..........

"In the days after the massacre at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, officials with the Texas Department of Public Safety said the shooter encountered a police officer employed by the school district before charging through a back door — and gave conflicting accounts about whether the officer fired at the gunman. Agency officials now say there was no police officer on campus when the shooter first arrived — but did not explain why they first believed there was. “He was not confronted by anybody,” Victor Escalon, a DPS official, said during a press conference Thursday."

Authorities took an hour to stop Uvalde gunman, raising questions about law enforcement response

Officials clarified the timeline of the shooting Thursday after giving varying accounts. They refused to answer many questions about the tactics.

I am surprised Officer Escalon hasn't been fired yet because that press conference was an abysmal disaster....quite like the school's action plan to confront a mass shooter was a complete failure....and this is after the school doubled funding for on-campus security, including having a whole police force just for the school....where did the money go -- because if the latest story being told was true, there was no on-campus security. Why would they totally make up the "brave officer confronted the shooter outside the school" scenario if that never happened??

Seems the first and easiest line of defense to a mass shooter is for the doors to be locked....until we know how the shooter gained entry; it is safe to assume that the doors were unlocked. There was also an interview with one of the survivors of the shooting...He told a gut-wrenching story of hiding under the table with a classmate while they saw their friends and teacher die, one by one....he also said he heard police outside give the command "Yell help, if you need help" -- to which a little girl yelled help....and the shooter was alerted to where the little girl was; and shot and killed her.....why the FUCK would you give that instruction when you know the shooter has not been neutralized yet -- and why do we expect teachers to respond any better -- when we barely want to pay them what they deserve now?

Small towns take the D students, give them badges and just say they are cops.

This is one of those stories that feels like there's more bad news headed our way.

 

[pknopp]

It's.what cops do. We have seen instances after instances where they lie and for years they were never questioned over their lies.

They still haven't learned but at least on occasion now they are somewhat held accountable.

the whole town were full of border cops.

The whole story we do not know. However the deed was most likely done before they arrived. They may not be that practiced as police in busier areas. If any of them ever screwed with citizens and help to make things worse for them they can go screw themselves. Progs block any prevention measures because they are for gun control.

One student told how one young girl was killed when the cops told the kids to yell out so they could find them. The killer found her first.

"Progs" had ZERO to do with the police response to the shooter -- nor did "PROGS" have anything to do with how the police are constantly being caught in lie after lie after lie....but I assume it feels better to blame it on something else when you are trained to lick boots

There are many good and fair police. There are power hungry police and corrections fiefdoms who destroy others because they can also. We are seeing what is going on in this nation today because of that. Whether right or wrong. Progs do not want to pass legislation on Mental Issues to start. School security must be addressed. On school shootings near all are around the age of where they would graduate High School. Near all have issues. And near all give ample warnings. A problem arises because most people will get frustrated on issues and talk like warriors. Or on these forums we type like warriors at times because of aggravations. That kid gave ample warning.

Cops were pretty pathetic.

This is why I have so little respect for you folks, in all honesty...the fact you can type that; tells me you do not give a fuck about mental health -- or you may be suffering from mental health issues due to your severe cognitive dissonance...

Gov. Abbott's Mental Health Cuts Under Scrutiny After Deadly School Shooting - KFF Health News

You can't claim "progs" don't want to pass mental health legislation while ignoring the fact the TEXAS GOVERNOR ACTUALLY CUT FUNDING TO MENTAL HEALTH..IN REAL LIFE...and he did this AFTER virtue signaling about mental health after the El Paso shooting and Sutherland Springs shooting - BOTH IN HIS STATE....but here you are, lying about "Progs"

In fact, this is par for the course for Conservatives....in desperate attempts to deflect from gun control policy, they fake concern for mental health -- but never talk about how they have cut mental health funding, over and over and over and over again....but you want to tell me about "Progs" blocking mental health legislation..fuck outta here

Escalon was not fired because DPS is trying to piece all the facts together rather than hide anything

We all want answers

it takes time to conduct an investigation

but you are demanding information NOW whether it later proves to be accurate or not

He wasn't giving information -- he was contradicting information they had just given -- if he doesn't have all the information -- don't volunteer info you don't have...

that press conference was a disaster and if it came from any other organization (aside from law enforcement) you would be singing a different tune...that is boot lick behavior

 

[Devils_Advocate]

Every Officer that went into the School and got their kid need to be fired!

Why?

I understand they are parents first but they left other kids behind to be slaughtered!

They left someone child, grandchild and god child behind and only thought about their kid!

The mishandling and selfishness that has been shown is a damn wake-up call people because we now know the Police will not save your kids but they will save their own!

Serve and Protect!

I don't get how that is even possible, to go in and pull out your own kid and no one else.

The cop goes into a classroom, the teachers says, "Kids, this officer is here to rescue us." and the cop says, "no, just that girl with the Barney hoodie in the third row. Come on, Lisa, bring your backpack." Did the cops promise to come back and never did?

Yes, we need a full investigation, and it will probably have to wait until the GOP takes back the House and/or the senate, because the Dems in charge in that town will stonewall it.
