SIAP. Lots of threads on the topic, possible I missed previous discussion of this news that has broken in the last couple of hours.

TX DPS Director Escalon: "It was reported that a school district police officer confronted the suspect that was making entry—Not accurate. He walked in unobstructed."

UVALDE, Texas—The gunman behind the mass shooting at an elementary school here lingered outside the building for 12 minutes firing shots before walking into the school and barricading in a classroom where he killed 19 children and two teachers, authorities said in a news conference Thursday laying out a new timeline of events.
Victor Escalon, a regional director for the Texas Department of Public Safety, said he couldn’t say why no one stopped the now deceased gunman, 18 year-old Salvador Ramos, from entering the school during that time Tuesday. Most of the shots Ramos fired came during the first several minutes after he entered the school, Mr. Escalon said.
DPS officials previously said an armed school officer confronted Ramos as he arrived at the school. Mr. Escalon said Thursday that information was incorrect and no one encountered Ramos as he arrived at the school. “There was not an officer readily available and armed,” Mr. Escalon said.

Ramos shot his grandmother Tuesday morning and then used her truck to drive to Robb Elementary School, crashing the truck into a nearby ditch at 11:28 a.m., according to the timeline laid out by Mr. Escalon. The gunman then began shooting at people at a funeral home across the street, prompting a 911 call reporting a gunman at the school at 11:30. Ramos then climbed a fence onto school grounds and began firing before walking inside, unimpeded, at 11:40. The first police arrived on the scene at 11:44 and exchanged gunfire with Ramos, who barricaded himself in a fourth-grade classroom. There, he killed the students and teachers.

A Border Patrol tactical team went into the school an hour later, around 12:40, was able to get into the classroom and kill Ramos, Mr. Escalon said.

Do most elementary schools have SRO? In a town with population of 15k

Yet another failure at many levels it would appear. If true, these details paint a very different picture.

Yep.
Funded by taxpayers of course

probably not. The same people who want to ban all guns don't want their little children exposed to a policeman with a gun.

There are so many reasons why school security is vital to the safety of our children, and a mass murdering gunman is just one of many.

I can see it... all kinds of end of year programs going on and parents coming and going... people get lackadaisical

This is becoming even more sad, if that’s even possible. Seems like failures on multiple levels gave these kids and teachers zero chance.

These fricks are talking out of both ends of their asses and I don't believe one fricking word they say at this point. Blue will cover blues arse and blues arse alone

Class action, incoming.

The school actually spent half a million dollars installing security measures and to have a full time armed SRO at the school....money well spent apparently

so it took almost an hour for a border patrol agent to show up and kill the sick frick. Did the cops outside not realize that ramos was shooting children? were they treating it like a hostage situation? IDK how anybody armed could stand around outside while that was going on.

What a fricking shite show the response to this was from LEO. Until this afternoon I was inclined to give them some room to clarify the timeline and benefit of the doubt, but it sounds like it is even worse than others were speculating.

Many, many people need to be fired. Some probably prosecuted. There needs to be maximum punitive damages sought.

Have the scumbag lawyers like Ben Crump ascended on Uvalde yet? Or do they only show up when black criminals get killed by cops?
