  1. Did not know how to drive. Did not have a drivers license. Did not have a vehicle. Did not have a photo ID. Grand father had no idea he had the rifles and ammo or how he got them to the house. No one questioned why and 18 year old is buying all that fire power. DON'T YOU THINK THE POLICE SHOULD HAVE SOME OF THOSE ANSWERS BY NOW???? Maybe, by next year.

  2. I spend summers driving throughout Europe on a motorcycle. This does not happen here. They have human beings here too. But they don’t have guns. They don’t have Republicans.

  3. Until you ask the right question. Why don't republicans want ANY gun control. Nobody asks the question. Continuing to shame them or have an intellectual conversation is getting everyone nowhere. You know why this is happening. Please, start an honest conversation about the MONEY!!! These politicians are just raking it in. The gun lobby is pouring a huge amount of money into the pockets of the politicians. This is the root of this evil. The greed is astronomical. The republicans aren't going to give up that kind of money. The corruption is beyond belief. Stop thinking you can reason with these horrible, greedy politicians. Start a different conversation. I'm a Canadian and I'm horrified about the same conversation when you know what's keeping this going.

  4. Will you bloody stop this madness NOW , America . After the Dunblane massacre in the UK, IN 1996 our strict gun laws were tightened, we've had zero school shootings since then. Gun deaths in the UK for 2020 to 2021, was 35 people. London has a population of around 10 million, gun deaths in the 6 months from October 2021 to April 2022, was 0. Granted we don't have any right to bear arms, but quite frankly we're happy with that. We do not want our kids going to school, to possibly die. We want them to learn, make friends and have fun. we know you all want the same too, please take to the streets, sit down and block roads, have town hall meetings, whatever you can do. We are heart broken and horrified on the other side of the pond.

  5. Ban Assault Weapons!! True no one civilian needs to fire over 30 rounds at anything to the point that DNA is the only means of identification!! Yes rights are not limitless!! Ban them!! Ban all assault weapons!! Eliminate the Daisy cutters!! Responsible gun owners would agree it's the cowards who won't. Ban assault weapons for any NON-MILITARY.

  6. This is going around on the internet. Could someone verfy?
    More oddities re: TX School Shooter, for your pondering… a

    18 year old who lived with his grandma. Part time job at McDonald's (8 hours a week), minimum wage. He dressed up in girl's clothes — and had a very expensive female wardrobe.

    Had a Brand new $expensive game console. A $brand new F250 pickup “fully loaded.” $Weapons: 2 Brand new Daniel Defense (brand) AR15/M4 rifles, with Military grade Optics. Each rifle is between 3,000 and 4,000 dollars. $Thousands of rounds of Military grade ammunition. A $thousand dollar bullet proof vest. All from a part time job at McDonald's…?!

    Ford F250 Platinum $71,000.00

    Clothes $3000,00

    Game Console $500.00

    Rifles $6000.00/$8,000.00

    Optics $1000.00

    Ammo $900.00

    Body Armor $1000.00

    TOTAL – $83,400.00

    On Minimum Wage ??!!

    Seems to me SOMEONE WAS FUNDING HIM and training him as well…

    And oh – he just happens to have known the Buffalo shooter? Seriously?!

    And add to the fact that those rifles were EXACTLY like one of the rifles from the Las Vegas "shooter". EXACTLY, down to the optics, AND the vertical fore-grip. And that particular configuration is (legally) only available to "Military and Law Enforcement" …

    And just before the NRA Convention, how timely…

  7. What a bunch of incompetent fools! They better raise the age of buying a assault rifle and the police really disappointed me in this case!(one hour of nothing being done about it)

  8. A time to be absolutely embarrassed to be a Texas Republican. News about another gunman who killed over 20 people, primarily children, at a school. A gunman who was able to purchase the weapons used during the shooting with such great ease because our pathetic, soulless politicians/lawmakers continue to prevent something as simple as universal background checks from becoming mandatory (I’m not saying the background check would’ve prevented this from happening, but it’s a fckn start and it sure would’ve made it more difficult for someone as whacked out as this kid to purchase assault rifles on his 18th birthday). Their lust for power and fear of losing the support from their primary donators such as the NRA prevent them from being human. I hope to God they go to sleep every night realizing that the blood of those kids are on their hands. The pathetic excuse of a police chief who told the cops to stand down and wait while the gunman continued to shoot and kill these poor, innocent children. I hope to God he goes to sleep every night knowing the blood of those kids are on his hands. You’re the police chief and you don’t even have a fckn radio so that you could hear the 911 calls being made BY THE CHILDREN IN THAT SCHOOL?!?! Where tf is the competence?? Where’s the accountability?? I understand Uvalde is a small town, but come on!!! And I thought police at least had to pretend to have an ounce of courage to do their job?? This worthless, spineless coward who calls himself a man and a police chief needs to do the world a favor and disappear. And then, news flash, a week before the school shooting, Gonzalo Lopez, a convicted capital murderer with ties to the cartel and Mexican mafia who murdered a man with an ice pick, who shot a cop, who repeatedly stabbed another cop, “miraculously” escaped from a prison bus, went on the run for 21 days, murdered a grandfather and 4 or 5 of his grandsons before being found and killed by our great Texas cops. I felt the need to mention that because that made ABSOLUTELY NO national news!!! The pigs, I mean the cops of that county were trying to minimize and cover up that fck up (or, more than likely, inside job) from the day he broke free!! Man, is it a sad sad sad time and an extremely embarrassing time to be a Texas Republican. I tend to support cops, but I don’t support and will NEVER support weak little spineless pigs in cop uniforms. From those of you who stood down and waited for swat to do your job because you were too fckn scared to do what you took an oath to do while poor little children were being murdered in school, to those of you who were so overly arrogant and made us feel like y’all knew exactly where Lopez was when he escaped, when in reality you didn’t have a fckn clue, ALL OF YOU PLEASE DO THE WORLD A FAVOR AND DISAPPEAR!! The world would be a better place without any of you! The blood of several innocent lives are on your hands and you should feel that guilt soak into your skin, let it travel through your veins, into your hearts and minds gand live the rest of your pathetic existences knowing that you could’ve done so much more to keep your word when y’all took an oath to SERVE AND PROTECT!!! Beyond Pathetic

  9. How do you know this isnt the person who manipulated that kid I tracked it to Texas 4 years ago nobody cared its on my fb I called 911 and report hypersonic weapons being used on me they didn't care and it was cops who got back in their cars and didn't aknowlage the recording multiple times not one detective came too me you have a cops family involved has this sunk in yet https://youtube.com/shorts/a9hHZJXgExM?feature=share

  10. This is yet another product of a corrupt American system. This guy felt so let by it that only thru gun violence could he see any way out, he was obviously very unhappy with the Country he was living in?

  11. The important question won't be asked: Was this kid prescribed antidepressants, antipsychotics or other SSRI type drugs ?

    Have you stopped to ask if the shooter was on mental health medication, was he being treated for ADHD, depression or psychotic behavior and if so what drugs was he on and where is his therapist ? Drugs like Xanas and Ritlin have proven suicidal and murderous ideation side effects proven in court in liability cases.

    What has changed to make this happen: we drugged an entire generation with drugs that most of Europe has ruled are destructive and illegal to give to children under 18.

  12. Nobody understands nobody gets the real picture why nobody think 💭 this through that all this mayhem and chaos and division can be created by intelligent smart and great online skills created by RUSSIA 🇷🇺 These conspiracies ARE to create division chaos and Mayham in our beautiful country did you guys ever stop and think or thought of that they are dividing us from left to right black to white color to color race to race race to religion all these conspiracies controversies confusion division are created on online social media Internet platforms and who is the mastermind on the Internet conspiracies and even interfering on & in our elections RUSSIA 🇷🇺 hopefully God bless us all and may God really make America the United States of America AGAIN one day IT is my wish my prayers and my blessings love you all dearly coexistence IS THE ONLY WAY ☮️✝️☪️✡️🕉📿🔱🌟🧿🌌🙏💯🌳🌏🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 We are burning everything with our own hands

  13. Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil; May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; And do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits who wander through the world for the ruin of souls. Amen

  14. HE HAD BEAT HIS GRABDDAD TOOK GRABDDAD WALLET WITH CREDIT CARDS, & IS. ..
    SELLER IF GUNS NEED TO BE CHARGED AND GUILTY IF 21 PERSONS KILLED… SELLER NEEDS. DEATH PENALTY!!!!

  15. Why is nobody questioning how this kid got over $9,000 worth of guns and ammo? Put that together with the stand down order, and what do you get? Call me a conspiracy theorist or whatever, but it doesn't add up.. it's almost as if, a person, or a group of people, set this up to scare us into giving up our gun rights during this already turbulent time.
