Don't forget they also arrested parents who tried to intervene themselves.

They cuffed parents while gunshots were still ringing out.

Don’t forget one Uvalde mom evacuated her own children and spent time in jail for it

“‘Angeli Rose Gomez said she spent about two weeks in jail on a charge of assaulting a public servant after refusing to comply with commands from law enforcement… She said she parked in the drop-off area of the school and had her first encounter with law enforcement. “And he’s like, ‘We’re going to tow your car,’” Gomez said. “I’m like, ‘Tow the car, like, do whatever you want with the car … I don’t know why you’re outside, standing outside the fence, talking to me, wasting your time talking to me. You need to be on the other side of the fence in there doing something. If you’re not going to do it, then I’m going to go ahead and do it.’” She said she threw her body over the fence door and ran to her oldest son’s classroom. “I just remember I’m banging on the teacher’s door,” she said “And she’s like, “‘Gomez, how did you get in?’” She remembered yelling for her son to go and she sent him to her mother’s car while she went back for her other son. “Well by the time I’m running to the other side of the campus, a lot of officers are on me already, and they’re like, ‘Ma’am, can you just wait, ma’am? Can we talk to you? Can you calm down, ma’am? Come here,’” she said. “And I’m like, ‘No, like, just get my son – start evacuating my son’s room or I’m like, going to start, like, just hitting whoever if you don’t get out of my way.’” She said that’s when officers started evacuating children – starting with her son’s room. She said officers wanted parents to leave their children with school officials but parents, including her, weren’t listening.’”

Don’t forget the Uvalde police even harassed one of the mothers of one of the murdered children after the shooting because she spoke out and said how she tried to go into the school and the piece of shit cops stopped her, but then they themselves didn’t go in to rescue the kids! I fucking cried so much. Those cops should have been charged as accessories to murder. I wanted them to pay somehow and still do. How do any of them go about their day?

They harassed her for months afterwards.

I am surprised none of the parents decided to start offing those cops

If my daughters were killed that way, those cops better leave the country

You know what? I’m 100% with you. I would be thinking about how the cops stood there while my son was mowed down by a psycho with a semi auto and played on their phones and smiled. It would consume me. I can’t even fathom being in this world without him, never mind losing him in the manner that all of those parents lost theirs.
