We need to catch and act on the many red flags that were up with these shooters.
Over and over again, you make claims, then avoid addressing the responses. I'll try again.
What were the "many red flags that were up" with the Uvalde shooter?
What should we have done to address each one?
Some of these are red flags from the shooter in Buffalo
All of this sort of stuff happens all the time. And this is also true with regard to, for example, the Buffalo shooting, the Buffalo shooting, there were plenty of red flags nobody ever filed for an executive restraining order, no one ever filed for a, in an ERP restraining protective order that would have prevented this person from being able to purchase guns despite a long and lengthy history of mental issues, violence, mental issues. So when the laws were on the books, but then they don't actually properly get enforced. This becomes a question of human behavior, and this is particularly true when it comes to police procedure, we've seen over and over again, whether it is Parkland or whether as it now turns out it is you've already that the police in these cases, whether it is failures of training or failures of courage have not done their job to protect innocent people.
We saw this when it came to Parkland most prominently, when it turned out that Scott Israel, the sheriff in Parkland was completely incapable of either trending his officers or getting his officers to go in and do what they had to do in order to stop the Parkland shooter. And then he sat by grinning as various members of the media and some of the school children themselves attacked politicians for broad scale gun laws. Dana lash was attacked on CNN as sort of the progenitor of the Parkland attack. Meanwhile, Scott Israel, who's really responsible for the failures of security that led to the Parkland shooting and to the terrible response to the Parkland PD. He was sitting there, basically grinning it away on national TV. And we see this over and over and over again.
There's a great irony to the fact that the left's attitude toward the police generally is incredibly skeptical. The idea is that the police are the oppressive arm of the state. The police are systemically racist. The police are bad guys, but then when it comes to situations like this, we're not allowed to discuss whether the police actually did their jobs. And this is a bizarre circumstance. So yesterday for example, the white house was specifically asked about the behavior of the police involved. And as we will discuss in just one moment and now appears that there was basically no protection at the school that the police did not do their jobs. The police set up a perimeter, the police did not intervene to stop the murder of these children for at least 40 minutes. And the white house when asked about it, they said, we're not calling for an investigation. So every time a black person is shot under conflicting circumstances, the white house calls for an investigation and six to the DOJ and the police department.
And when the Confederates saw Jackson standing fearless like a stonewall, the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.
