Following the deadly shooting in Uvalde, Texas, the fallout continues for the school police chief, Pete Arredondo, who investigators say made the call to wait before taking down the shooter. The Uvalde City Manager also told NBC News that Arredondo was recently elected to the Uvalde City Council, but will not be sworn in tomorrow as planned. The chief has not issued any comment since the shooting.

White children would have had cops running into the building. Not so for blacks and hispanic schools. We all know the truth. Its not political its a fact.
Sandy Hook School was closed for 4 years before their incident, and then they got a new school too.
Here it is the face of the coward
I can't believe this man is showing his face..
WHY DID THE TEACHER PROP OPEN DOOR AND GO TO THEIR CAR the return AND LEFT THE DOOR AJAR. Just within the few minutes shooter was on school property HE WOULD NOT HAVE GAIN ENTRY if the door was Closed and Locked as the Police arrived about the same time. We are talking 11:33 am to 11:35 am ?
If the police chief joins the city council he'll be in the spotlight and will have to take the communitys' and reporters' questions. I don't believe he'll set himself up for this scrutiny.
If this chief of police is sworn in as a part of Uvalde councilman, then there are gonna be some very, very, very hard question asked to government involvement and logical reason as to allowing a "possible, corrupt psychological," mindset set in an oath of office seat, that is bound to protect and serve over movements of donuts and coffee being served by those who had trust in US Government status quo!
These cops are a disgrace . Cowards should be fired .
VOTE GREG A OUT OF OFFICE
YOU DONT GET TO LEARN LESSONS OFF THE LIVES OF OTHER PEOPLES KIDS…. THAT MAN IS AN ABSOLUTE COWARD AND SO IS EVERY OFFICER THAT FOLLOWED HIS ORDERS!!!!!!HE DOESNT HAVE ONE OUCE OF REMORSE ON HIS FACE… THEY SEE IT AS LESSONS LEARNED… I HOPE THE VOICES OF THOSE KIDS BEGGING FOR HELP HAUNTS YOU FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE!!!!
Failure on every level …🐽
Questions still remain? My question is where is the teacher that propped open the door, where is this person in this “investigation” nobody has mentioned a word on this one critical item that could have prevented most of these deaths – entry into building
Lmmfao what is there to question ❓ 19 armed uniform skells failed to confront and terminate an active shooter.insted , they chose to rescue there own kids , arrest and detained parents, who made attempts to enter the school and reach there children as they were being slaughtered
Arredondo will not be sworn in city council today and he doesn't deserve to ever be sworn in as community focus on funerals of little victims. But they, abbott and the republican senators (if you want to call them governor and senators, I have other names they deserve TO BE CALLED), wouldn't cancel that nasty, evil kkk nra convention in respect for the little ones that they CAUSED. THERE IS BLOOD ON THEIR HANDS!
THIS IS OUR POLICE . THEY WOULD RATHER KEEP A PAY CHECK THAN DISOBEY ORDERS AND SAVE OUR KIDS .
THESE ARE OUR AMERICAN COWARDS .
Another wicked liberal sacrifice for their evil agenda.
Questions like if they were trying to help the maniac accomplish the mission there's nothing more they could have done, Questions like this?
LISTEN to the 9-11 calls.
Let his head roll … Too many "glorified meter maids" are there just to collect a pay check … Hanging out all day by a new stop sign, and looking for broken tail lights is not what they are there for.
So in other words, we are going to wait till people aren't paying so much attention and then we will promote the person most responsible for this instead of charging them like should happen 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Mockery answers to these questions
Had no knowledge that 21yrs was federal for obtaining a handgun.
Someone suggested why not raise assault rifle age to 21.
HALF RIGHT about school shooters.
HOW ABOUT 21yrs federal as the age for ANY SEMI AUTOMATIC weapon AND a fixed (unremovable) magazine only for non semi auto below 21yrs !
That makes logical sense!
(Too proper adult chest height solid wire rod fence and entry exit federal policy , also emergency vehicle access gates as appropriate , for schools also).
In school shooting it is the rapid fire ability.
I think for most somehow people of 18 19 years old remain children in their minds and do not have a true sense of distinguishing self control or community cooperation as part of a nation in terms of what their own wants and actions are.
Stepping from school to the real world generally requires a few years to understand they simply are not a child and there is no tolerance for some thinking or behaviours around other people and what that means in going about whatever they do without causing trouble to others.
However, that type of action is bizarre but does need guard against.
I agree it never actually occurred much until this millenia, but it is here and it need not be such a fail.
Point is, all semi auto to be 21yrs and bolt and single allowed below 21 may well do better than attempting red flag.
However, this brings us to Timothy McVeigh, a bomber. Through Australian history post firearms ban there are many instances of bombers albeit somewhat negligable, but they do point well to the fact that not only do some methods of attack not stop but the problem of the mass killer does not go away. However, neither does mass killing by firearm.
It can be readily deduced from this that at no time does removing firearms and second amendment rights create a fair or just society and in fact would be the level of a dictatorship of which only corrupt prosper (because second amendment supports the point of right to bare arms and right to bare arms makes the point of the second amendment valid to being enacted with, cannot have one without the other or they are the value of an AKA wooden coin)
