What the actual? OVER!
tin foil hat on and wondering how many/if any of these were groomed by son's of J Edgar
Now in Uvalde TX? Shaking my head about that one. Where were the good guys with guns. Uvalde ain't Austin or Dallas. That's freaking "real" Texas.
Naught to do but wait for more info and pray for family and loved ones who are grieving.

Texas' use of force laws may be amazing, but IIRC their laws on where you can or can't carry are nothing to brag about.

So looks like a Border Patrol agent went in and took out the shooter -- and got wounded in the process.

Iirc, both Pennsylvania and Indiana are both better where the latter is involved.Netpackrat wrote: ↑Wed May 25, 2022 1:32 am Texas' use of force laws may be amazing, but IIRC their laws on where you can or can't carry are nothing to brag about.

So, apparently no good guys inside with guns.
Border Patrol Agent
Border Patrol Agent
"rushed into the school without waiting for backup and shot and killed the gunman, who was behind a barricade, according to a law enforcement official speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk about it."
sources told him a BORTAC — Border Patrol Tactical Unit — agent and other border agents "formed a stacking maneuver while Texas law enforcement was engaged with the shooter who was barricaded." As Melugin continued, the BORTAC agent "ended up exchanging gunfire with the shooter- killed the shooter," and suffered a leg injury caused either by a shot from the rampaging gunman or shrapnel flying as a result of the firefight.

Once again, the cops showed up and did nothing except prevent others from actually doing anything

Not advocating... but if LE keeps this crap up, sooner or later they are going to be at the center of a crossfire between the goblin and responding parents.
