  1. Has he been checked, he could have had a key or a badge to get in, yeah small towns they cover for one another cause most of them are related, or have known each other for years.

  2. Abortions illegal. Mass shootings… Sure, why not. It's in the constitution.

  3. DOJ. lighting strike, get this going, better to have things started than waiting 6 months.

  4. People need to stop blaming the teacher. Blame the guy with the AR-15 murdering people.

  5. Why is everyone trying to blame the cops when it was clearly the STUPID teacher who left the door propped open! If one of those dead kids were mine, I'd be filing a huge wrongful death suit against this teacher!
    Weird how the media isn't commenting on this fact! This door left open is the reason all those ppl are dead! I wonder if that brainless teacher can sleep at night knowing they are directly responsible for so many dead!

  6. Leave the teacher alone. Focus on peter and his troops.

  7. Do you realise of this sounds to us in europe.One door is responsible for a massacra.You need a bad needed injection on common sense.It the door not the gun STUPID!

  8. No one knows what really happened with that door. Im sure when she saw him coming with that gun she took off fast and didnt have time to wait to see if it actually shut all the way.

  9. I feel so bad for the parents of all the children that passed away, All Guns should be illegal except for authority (Police etc). The amendment is dated, They also thought it was ok for salvery and women couldn't vote etc. What was once deemed ok for the 1700s doesn't necessarily mean it's a great thing for 2022.

  10. Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it. ' (Prov. 22:6.)

  11. When are the investigators going to reveal if 911 dispatch told the police on-site that there were children still alive calling for the entire hour????? Because I’ve seen a tape made by a bystander if the police out side the school and in the background is dispatch telling them that at 12:13. Were they told about the other calls??? It was their duty to go in right away. If they knew, and let those kids bleed out, how is this not criminal negligence or manslaughter?

  12. Instead of telling them to hold the scene an taking time to dress up like swat they should have just made entry you have a vest on side arm an grab shot gun or rifle but no need to wait at all. Just cause you guys want to look good in your gear running around the scene instead entering right away. You are cowards.This police chief an sheriff needs to face charges just like the rest of the cowards that did not go in. The officers if they had any guts an not cowards would have disobeyed the order an went in a real police officer would have known that being told to wait was wrong an would have took it upon there self to enter. Each officer that arrived an did nothing needs to be inditied no excuse at all
    Will

  13. Police: it's everyone else's fault, we did nothing wrong, we're perfect, stop attacking us

  14. Amusing how gun owners still use the tired excuse of "if you take away my assault rifle, how we will stop future criminals" 😂 Inherently weak males who can't defend themselves with a normal hand gun or rifle. OR even better….how often are you being robbed or attacked that you need to "defend" yourself and stock pile weapons of warfare? grow up. Facts hurt the brains of those with no neurons firing………More than 30 years of public health research supports thinking of guns as statistically more of a personal hazard than a benefit. Case-control studies have repeatedly found that gun ownership is associated with an increased risk of gun-related homicide or suicide occurring in the home (Kellermann and Reay, 1986; Kellermann et al., 1993; Cummings and Koepsell, 1998; Wiebe, 2003; Dahlberg et al., 2004; Hemenway, 2011; Anglemeyer et al., 2014). For homicides, the association is largely driven by gun-related violence committed by family members and other acquaintances, not strangers (Kellermann et al., 1993, 1998; Wiebe, 2003).

  15. This is not the teachers fault this is a cop fault

  16. I've just read he spoke to NBC and said he has been in touch with the investigators daily?!
    And I've also read that federal agents disobeyed his instruxtions and went and got the gunman – so was it or was it not coal they were waiting and he still wasnt going to let anyone in? We need answers and the parents need to know what happened to their children!

  17. In a world without 2A the the only non military with guns would be criminals and cops. The former choose their time and the latter (if they even come in time) may not have the competence or resolve to do their duty.

  18. The teacher should have used a cart to make one trip.

  19. Probably afraid she will be sued

  20. Stop getting mad at a teacher for possibly leaving a door open or unlocked. Having an open door or an unlocked door should not be an issue.

  21. He's gotta get groceries eventually.

  22. Even if the teacher didn't leave the door open, whenever she goes outside, the shooter can always force her to open the door with his guns.

    Guns make evils powerful.

    You give guns to evils, and then let saints carry guns to fight them. That becomes an infinity war.
    You simply just don't give guns to those evils.
    Gun control will solve this.

  23. The issue is NOT the damned door. It isn't the type of gun or the shooter, the he and it are the primary cause. The issue is the good guys standing back and standing by while babies are executed.

  24. blame everything but the assault rifles easy access. Where do thing stand with the police chief. they will get a promotion….I believe he was appointed to the county council.

  25. Whatever it is , the reason why you don’t put a rock to keep the door ajar . There’s a reason why there’s a door , duh . Now all those lives will be in the teachers stupidity .

  26. Whatever it is , the reason why you don’t put a rock to keep the door ajar . There’s a reason why there’s a door , duh . Now all those lives will be in the teachers stupidity .

  27. why the teacher even go out??? when you cant mind your own business

  28. CSI Chief of Police elected to protect children hides from investigators. But makes time to get sworn in for a city council position. Did he attend any of the funerals?

  29. Are US schools meant to be prisons…keeping crazy folks out? Or should AR15s be banned from the whole country?

  30. The coward who would not let his officers protect the lives of children is now part of the city council……truly a tragedy. Good luck to all 🤔

  31. Even if all the doors in the school was opened wide. That is not the problem here, how untrained 18 year old got his hands legally on two rifles which he didn't need for work or anything is the problem

  32. All they do it lie. Lawsuit.
