No mention of mods or extended mag, Texas isn't big on firearm accountability but might make exceptions if you are the "wrong sort" (wink, nod).

Why is or better yet the reason for the ability to purchase body armor?????

WTF!


You know by the time a shooter shows up to kill somewhere, it is already to late anyway.


The gun loving and playing with toys crowd will talk a lot. In the end it comes down to ...... don't take my toys away. Little caring for others...

Typical for right learners and selfish pricks.....

What legislation would have stopped this shooting?

A ban on gun ownership by civilians.

Well you asked.

Further details revealed that police waited outside the school for forty minutes or more before entering the building despite pleas from onlookers outside.

Desperate onlookers urged police to charge into the school where their children were trapped. Instead, police massed outside the building for 40 minutes and waited.

Javier Cazares, whose fourth-grade daughter, Jacklyn Cazares, was killed in the attack, said he raced to the school when he heard about the shooting, arriving while police officers massed outside the building.

Upset that the police were not moving in, he raised the idea of charging into the school with several other bystanders.

Once inside it seems police were stymied by a locked door.

Meanwhile, a law-enforcement official familiar with the investigation said the Border Patrol agents had trouble breaching the classroom door and had to get a staff member to open the room with a key.

Now they're saying it was 80 minutes.

Police threw up a perimeter to deal with unruly parents (desperate to save their kids) while they rehashed state vs federal authority.

So...the first time I experienced this was back around 1990, I was out and decided to pick up a cup of coffee at 7-11. There's this patrol car sitting in the parking lot, windows down, cops there in the car. I figured it was a donut break. So as I'm heading toward the door the driver says something like, "You might not want to go in there." So I ask if there's a problem and I'm told that the store alarm went off. They obviously were not going in there. A few years later I'm on my way into a Target store, there's a cop at the door, tells me there's a possible incident, man with a gun inside. But none of the cops are going inside. About 10 years ago the silent alarm went off at the counseling agency where I worked. Nobody knew it had been set off, but there's a patrol car sitting at the curb in front of the office. So...the office manager asks me to go out there and check what's happening. The cop says..."Your alarm went off." So I innocently say, "Oh, OK, it's just that you've been out here for a while and we didn't know what it was about." The cop is annoyed with my comment and says, "We don't know what's going on in there, we're not going in there."

Well these 90 Texas cops hanging out in the hallway on the other side of the door of a fourth grade classroom for an hour knew exactly what was going on in there. They could hear the automatic weapons fire.

Some times they do, bro. Doug Schroeder, a small town police chief knew this perp personally. Knew he was shooting everybody in sight with an AK-47. Ran him down and shot him dead (IIRC with a pump shotgun, or maybe an AR rifle).
