  1. It was reported that the teacher did close the door but it didn't lock as it was supposed to. The shooter, it was reported,shot at ppl from the funeral home,911 calls went out, Active Shooter near the school, and the first police on scene engaged shots and were grazed with bullets . So how did they not take him down immediately instead of him making it to those classrooms! He was apparently all over the school bc one child said they were hiding behind the stage when he came in and said basically " little kids, come out wherever you are". They stayed quite. The first officers that got " grazed" should have neutralized the threat immediately. Better some grazed police than 19 dead children, 2 hero teachers, a heartbroken husband who died 2 days later, orphaned children, 22 funerals, wounded and recovering victims and a heartbroken nation. I still can't understand the delay in storming the school. Prayers for all of Uvalde and our country 🙏😭💔🥀

  4. I don't know how Arradondo could order a stand down. They should have rappelled down into the room through the window

  5. Ok he just said officers in building 2 minutes after shooter, Grazed by gunfire and they didn't run him down immediately?..A couple more officers might have been grazed but certainly a massacre could have been avoided, my opinion. At that moment the shooter had already shot at several people, including police, and possibly children at that time idk , my point is he should have never made it to those classrooms at all. The police could have done a total barrage of him, not just stand there calling for backup. Do firemen not go in to save people because they might get burned? No, I think not. Prayers for all the families 🙏🥀💔😭
