        Huh ? I must admit I was shocked that the 911 had been called on this guy 39 times 39 ... the FBI did drop the ball & so stated immediately... I had a sense he was back stroking Until very recently no 1 spoke of the 39X’s he was reported to police. His watch

        I don’t blame the deputy who didn’t go in. He had a handgun and he’d have faced a maniac with an AR15! He’d be dead today and wouldn’t have made a difference. I hope he’s going to be ok...I worry he won’t be able to deal with it.

        That Handgun was no match for that AR15.

        But when they take the job its not only based on going up against hand guns only. It requires they take on all comers. As a sheriffs deputy thats what they train for yes its scary as hell but thats the job perhaps he needed more training but.. he didn’t confront the shooter 😞

        I wouldn’t have faced a man in full body armor and an AK15 either. No way. The deputy is waaaaay at the bottom of the list of who’s to blame in this situation. He was there to handle stuff like fights and obnoxiousness, not to fight a war against weapons of war.

        I see and understood both sides, it’s all tragic and bans on these weapons are necessary.

        He should be fired. @jaketapper great interview exposing this guy and his excuses for epic fail on multiple fronts.

        Maybe meant to say, OJ would have been prevented from killing. Certainly, there were warning signs. But there seems to have been a heck of a lot more with Cruz.

        One of the significant problems with policing in America is there a tendency towards tribalism - us vs them, with no tendency towards accountability.
