| This is becoming an increasing problem with law enforcement...cowardice. That's why so many unarmed people are being gunned down by the police and deputies, including a completely innocent man in Wichita, Kansas and the Australian lady in Minnesota. There are also more cops just shirking their duties, they just want to collect their paychecks and brag about being cops. |
| He needs to be fired, corrupt cops is bad enough, now we have complete cowards who are useless which is even worse. Make police great again by hiring veterans and other people who want to protect and serve instead of randos off the street looking for power or people like this guy who think being an officer is just about eating donuts. |
 |
| We have huge SWAT teams for drug busts for a little weed but a couple deputies are for mass killers with automatic weapons? |
| It turns out that there were four deputies on the scene in total who stood by and did nothing. So when Sheriff Israel comes out and tells me that I owe my guns to him because his people can't do their jobs, he can fuck off. |

| And this is why teachers should have guns, armed officials apparently aren't up for it! |

Even the article says "He also served in the military, he told the sheriff's office." "Under the Justice Department's COPS (Community Oriented Policing Services) program, 629 of the 800 police jobs funded for the next three years – all the newly hired officers – must go to veterans who served at least 180 days' active duty since 9/11. This is the first time the 18-year-old COPS program has required cities and counties seeking grants to hire veterans exclusively." https://www.csmonitor.com/USA/2012/0625/Military-veterans-to-get-priority-for-police-jobs-under-COPS-grants (article from 2012) traed said: We have huge SWAT teams for drug busts for a little weed but a couple deputies are for mass killers with automatic weapons? The problem with SWAT is that it takes quite a while for them to arrive and most shootings are over at that point. A couple of deputies who are already on the scene, on the other hand, could charge in and stop or at least engage the shooter, thus preventing further loss of lives. Which is why the government changed the procedures for mass/school shootings from "waiting for SWAT to arrive" to "go in and try to actively stop the shooter". NudeBear said: And this is why teachers should have guns, armed officials apparently aren't up for it! Right ... because if armed professionals aren't "up for it", it makes sense to leave the job to people who's job is to teach and not hunt down criminals. Anyone sees the problem with that or is it just me? |

I'm suggesting the police should have special teams on hand that can respond just as quickly but is better trained and equiped for those situations. |

Can't get killed if you kill them first. Let children and older students bring guns to school! |

Plus, the guy is 19 years old, which means he could legally join the army and be deployed in an actual war zone - we're not talking about a child or young teenager here. Being a "veteran of 30 years" doesn't mean all that much if you consider the fact that ~ 90% of all police officers never have to use their guns in their line of duty. traed said: NudeBear said: Even better.

Heat seeming AI shoot any student who aren't to class on time. Don't forget the landmines and heavy machine gun emplacement - how else can anyone guarantee the safety of the students? |
| Police getting scared now? That's probably as worse as corrupt cops. You know this profession can be dangerous and scary, why the fuck did you choose this? Either grow a spine and face your fears or resign and leave ffs Edit: Oh he resigned? Good. |

| I myself am not against ALL cops-but this is why so many people despise them. Many cops are corrupt and only care about themselves. |

| People think real life is like the movies. In the minds of the Gun-Loving Right-Wing if EVERYONE had a gun, there would never be a mass shooting or at least if someone attempted a mass shooting that person would be gunned down by a "good guy with a gun". The truth is, MOST humans panic in situations such as a crazy guy going around shooting people. In the end it comes down to "Flight or Fight". And the majority of us would choose "flight" to protect our own lives.....the need for self-preservation is stronger than the need to save others. And if you think otherwise, you're lying to yourself. Very rarely if ever will humans choose to save another life if it means sacrificing their own. |
| Uhhh why the hell would you sign up to be a cop if you can't handle the duties of being one? This cop literally signed up to be confronted with a scenario like this and he pussied out, and let this tragedy happen. Sorry, but I have zero respect for "cops" like these. |
