The head of the Texas Department of Public Safety on Tuesday called the police response to the Uvalde school shooting an “abject failure,” adding that the shooter could have been apprehended within three minutes of entering Robb Elementary School as officers waited for “a key that was not needed.”
An 18-year-old male, who will not be named per Daily Wire policy, killed 19 students and two teachers at the elementary school on May 24.
“There’s compelling evidence that the law enforcement response to the attack at Robb Elementary was an abject failure and antithetical to everything we’ve learned over the last two decades since the Columbine massacre,” said Col. Steve McCraw, director of the Texas Department of Public Safety.
“Three minutes after the subject entered the West building, there was sufficient number of armed officers wearing body armor to isolate, distract, and neutralize the subject,” McCraw continued. “The only thing stopping the hallway of dedicated officers from entering room 111 and 112 was the on-scene commander who decided to place the lives of officers before the lives of children.”

The whole charade was cowardly.
I guess children are not important in Uvalde, TX.
I too thought it was cowardice but just saw a report on OAN that police were ordered by upper level commanders to stand down, people not even on the scene!!!!! They were afraid of losing their jobs for disobeying an order but should have put saving lives first!!!!!!!!!!
We obviously need more good guys with guns.
Agreed
Sorry, this is crap. The police were not cowards. They have a trained Swat Team in that town. I smell a rat. Does anyone actually know people in that town and can confirm those people actually died??? It's no coincidence that this particular shooting is the main talking point for the democommunists gun restriction bill. Nothing about the towns that actually stopped their gunman. I smell a CIA brainwashed rat that was triggered to kill. For all we know, the vaccines and 5G could have set him off. The Transhuman world is here and normal people are their targets.
Oh,, and nothing in the news about who gave him the money to purchase all the guns and ammo. Like 2000 mules, we need to demand that the people funding these criminals are brought to Justice!!! Tyranny and treason are punishable by death. Hang'em high in the public square just once and see how quiet the criminals become.
Tim, AMEN AMEN AMEN AMEN AMEN!!!!!!!!!!
