    southpaw @nycsouthpaw
    According to officials: - the shooter went in a classroom and locked the door - police on scene left him in there - when border patrol showed up they couldn’t break down the door - after 40-60m they got a member of the school staff to unlock it with a key https://apnews.com/article/uvalde-texas-school-shooting-44a7cfb990feaa6ffe482483df6e4683 … pic.twitter.com/Dwt0vGfKtQ

        It's easy to comprehend; you just don't want it comprehended. The government allowed it to happen.. Ask yourself why.

        You need to lower your expectations for the NRA, Republicans, and police then.

        My takeaway is: * Cops aren’t that great at stopping crime in progress * The shooter was young enough to know the active shooter drill by heart and used it against law enforcement. * The cops’ priority was keeping themselves safe. Shooter was contained so job done!

        They also aren’t great at solving crimes that already happened so I’m unclear on what they do.

        Police inaction has been the school shooting protocol since Columbine.
