This crap is going to get real bad before it is all over. Lawyers are going to get rich. Some people need to at least get fired. Some need to have bad things done to them.

Disgraceful. Absolutely and utterly disgusting display of incompetence.

Couldn’t get past 3 paragraphs. Would be shocked if the chiefs house isn’t burned down by 5pm.

The incompetence of Uvalde Independent School District Chief Pete Arredondo is absolutely reprehensible. DPS Director Steven McCraw said the doors to the pair of classrooms where the students and teachers were killed were unlocked, but never checked by police as Arredondo continued to frantically search for a skeleton key to a door that could have been opened at any time, had anyone tried it.

So dozens of cops milling about in the hallways while the buffoon in charge was searching for keys to enter an unlocked classroom where children were being massacred.

"The officers had weapons, while the children had none. The officers had body armor, the children had none. The officers had training, the subject had none," McCraw said Tuesday. "One hour, 14 minutes and eight seconds. That’s how long the children waited, and the teachers waited, in Room 111 to be rescued. And while they waited, the on-scene commander waited for radio and rifles. And he waited for shields, and he waited for SWAT. Lastly, he waited for a key that was never needed."

I’ll wait for concho and his professional opinion to post before I jump to conclusions.

100% this.

FFOX News I'm NOT Disabling Ad Blocker.

Absolutely unacceptable.

The chief and the police inside are an absolute embarrassment. There is no place in policing for cowards like that.

Release their names, they deserve to all be in prison. We wont get that because the supreme court already ruled on this matter and said it was okay for Police not to protect us, and specifically children.

Concho??? The guy who blindly defended the actions of the Uvalde police despite all of the insurmountable evidence showing their cowardly behavior and incompetence? That guy's "professional opinion"?

I would think the Texas DPS spokesman who is all-in on this case has more of a "professional opinion" than anyone...so it's safe to jump to conclusions.

I understand Arrendondo is still on the job. Why?

Uvalde police are fighting tooth and nail to avoid releasing information.

It's a national embarrassment for Texans. It should be a story about how Texas police quickly and swiftly took this clown out, but it the opposite. The only way to save face is to get to the bottom of the story, be transparent, and take action so it does not happen again.

International at this point. Saw articles on BBC about it

Sad
Very very sad

If he didn't think he was in charge of the scene, who in the hell did he think was in charge of it.

Absolutely disgusting!

This is really starting to smell bad.

Well at least it looks like McCraw is getting to the bottom of the story and laying out all the facts, making some progress here...

I understand the whole jurisdiction thing but I really have had an issue from the get go with a small school district police chief with like 6 employees I believe....being in charge of such a major event.

Damn.

Ohhhh but what about those guns? Tell me about how these guns are to blame, and why we need to trust the government and more specifically the police to protect us. Surely these are the correct answers!

Who said he was in charge? Why would not the other LEO forces that where more trained take over. This is a "goat rope" gone bad.

If sarcasm isn’t your thing I’ll try another method next time.

I thought it was pretty good

Starting? Epic failure from the beginning of the truck crash!
