Uvalde Texas Killing

[KLB]

I'm SHOCKED! Isn't this a border town? Oh, wait, now they can also say "yes, we've been to the border"

Not exactly. About 70 miles from the border.

... Now the conspiracy people will be saying this was all pre planned and anti-gun liberal police wanted this to all happen to further the liberal agenda to take away guns.

Well, maybe not 'pre planned', but the tried and true playbook is "never let a crisis go to waste!" I'm personally convinced that they at least pre planned the sh** out of how to capitalize on the crisis that they knew would present itself.

My Bad. Thanks for setting me straight. I heard in early reporting that this was an entry point, and that's why the BP agents were there. I didn't check, and that's on me.

So... Branden STILL won't visit the border!

Near is a relative term. 70 miles is a 3-day walk, but only a little more than hour by car or truck.
This is a long thread. I do not know what nearness to a border crossing has to do with a killing by an American citizen in his hometown.

Close enough for talking heads and worthless politicians.

So you don’t read the thread but are willing to make statements about the intent of others in the thread?? It was because a federal agent whose job it is to secure our border that made entry and stopped the killing. How about go make your thinly veiled political BS statements somewhere else.

They operate all over the place. They have jurisdiction within 100 miles of the border.

He was killed by a Border Patrol Officer.

Can you imagine the power of the railroad border patrol?

They will have an even bigger situation when Parents start showing up with their own firearms desperate to go in and save their children if no one else will.

What parent would’nt be willing to put their own life on the line to do so?

I would not/could not hesitate.

That’s exactly what’s going to happen next time. And I’d put money says it’s not just uncle joe with a shotgun but a couple people showing up fully kitted out.

I’m starting to wonder more and more if mine shouldn’t live in my vehicle

Always have an AR in the vehicle along with loaded magazines.

Tuesday morning blow up your representatives phones, we need to codify the duty of the police to be protect and we need to repeal the legislation that made schools a gun free zone.

If those things had already been done we would be having a vastly different conversation

These are my own first responder tools.

Yep. They don’t make safes for vehicles for nothing.

Rifle, extra mags, first aid kit, bottled water, and a small amount of food.

Of course, the handgun as well, but that stays on me everywhere, so I don’t count that.

Well, school board meetings have been gaving issues with domestic terrorists (fka "parents).

SCOTUS disagrees. Castle Rock v Gonzalez.

There is rah-rah, happy talk; and then there is reality.

Reality is that we are always our own first, last, and only line of defense - and that we are always the real, first responder.

If you can 1st get past the actual paid 1st responders to get into the fight.
Did I read correctly that they tazzed and cuffed people attempting to get their kids. WTAF.

I have stated at every one of these threads that it would take a major effort to stop me from going in and dealing with this insanity. To the point of hurting anyone that attempted to stop me.
It is just mind blowing how these asshats deal with this. It's wrong. period.
We used to be a country of brave souls willing to help our fellow man. Now we have devolved to a bunch of phone addicts ready to film and stand back with the ability to hamper at every opportunity. LEO seems to have lost what we have them for. The brass is lost to our cause. It's just maddening.

But I digress.

OK here we go again.
Dont make me close this one because if I do there will not be another.
This goes to all involved.

I have slipped into emotion myself. Its so hard to do when the focus should be on the lives lost and yet we want to understand why. When the facts surface and the total failure of most involved comes to light our anger comes out and rightly so. I am angry. My heart hurts. Those who are supposed to protect and serve have lost their way.

Yup. The kids are merely pawns in the big play to disarm us. Or so it seems.
