The secondary headline, had you bothered to click on the article, clearly says child endangerment.
Which is absurd. The chief didn't put the kids in danger. He merely failed to act when they were in danger, which SCOTUS has already ruled is fine. This should never go to trial.
He absolutely should have lost his job but the slippery slope that is locking people up who fail to put their lives on the line for strangers scares me. Today it's a random Texas police chief for innocent kids. But tomorrow its your son or daughter cop for a drugged out thug. We can't go down this road.

That’s the dumbest shite I’ve read today.

Every cop is taught and knows that in an active shooter event you enter and engage the threat immediately.

And everyone who isn’t a bitch protects children because we’re suppose to.

Funny how somehow we hold military to a higher standard, where they can go to prison or be executed for cowardice, dereliction of duty, or desertion, yet LEO get better pay, benefits, and living conditions with none of the legal strings attached.
Why are we ok with LEO held to such low standards??
Eta, LEO need something like a UCMJ to standardize conduct here, with legal consequences for failures to follow the rules.

Military to LEO is damn near apples and oranges.
My dad always tells a story of being in the army and getting drunk and sunburned. So sunburned he was out 3 days. They talked about or actually disciplined him for damage to “military property”. lol
You belong the to military. You work for the police department. You are also charged and tried my a military legal system.
Side note. My take away. This dumb bastard Arredondo was still in Uvalde? Still in Texas? What the frick!!? Why?
They’d have to extradite me because I’d have moved that far away. What in the frick would you stay in or near a town you are a pariah.

It is amazing how this stuff gets buried, like las vegas shooter.
Total f@ck up sparks calls for taking guns, then the actual criminals who created the incident slide away and years later the patsy gets a slap in the wrist if he has not been epsteined..

In Nashville, officer Rex Edmonton called for three other officers, immediately entered the school, wasted the school shooter. There was zero hesitation for those guys. Edmonton has been a Marine ... "go to the sound of gunfire."

Good luck hiring new recruits for bullshite pay if they can be executed for having a bad day at work.
Then don’t be a cop, pussy. I’m not, but if you are you should be willing to die for the job.

Exactly. Zero hesitation from the Nashville cops and they’re fricking heroes. Honestly how you could be a Uvalde cop and not have the dignity to blow your own head off by now is unfathomable to me. If any of you Uvalde cowards are reading this:

I think last name is Engelbert, but another good example is the Allen, TX cop who took out the shooter at the outlet shopping center. Running towards the gunfire and then taking the punk out.

I fricking like it!!!
The problem with this is when cops make the mistake charging in, example of the police killing the child hostage that had plate armor on and charged the officer after being abducted.
When shite hits the fan do we want violence of action and take the good with the bad? Or more of this bs cowardice. I’d rather have shooters then pussies and back the police up when they frick up a bit in high stress

How about having some standards, ensuring these guys have and maintain their pt test standards, how about supporting the police and ensuring they have the training to go in there in a high stress environments and be willing to pull the trigger, rotate them with other police units on the border with dea and get some licks in. Then once they have done a few raids delt with some scum backs buried some ppl then they can rotate out and into a position charged with the protection of others.
Idk how you do this. I think the police force needs some Major overhauls and I think the only way is to get these pos small town cops out and make them rotate out with some crazy shite going down in Chicago, Miami, border patrol. They need to see the ways of doing things and get some experience.
These cowards not making a decision or taking action is not ok.

The chief kept the police from storming the classroom while kids and teachers bled out.

You are absolutely right. It is alarming the level of irrational stupidity in this thread. This problem of making decisions with emotion instead of thinking permeates society.
