You know how Alex Jones is the archetype that the feds want people to think of as a conspiracy theorist? And his Sandy hook skepticism (false flag/crisis actors) get everyone so riled up?

Can’t wait for the political establishment to pull out that comparison when people ask what happened to 18 minutes of police scanner.

    The cops admitted that he shot outside the school for 12 minutes after the state department dude revealed no one stopped him from entering. Also confirmed that cops went in for their kids then left.

    They clearly knew they fucked up so hard.

    Between Alex Jones ruining it for everyone and January 6th, you won't ever be allowed to question anything again. Liberals have ceded that ground in some weird appeal to authority because they finally feel unsafe on the regular.

        That shit is breaking in European countries right now. "No Ukrainians" signs are going up in shop windows in countries with high refugee rates due to thefts, prostitution is rampant too and people are absolutely not enjoying the presence of Ukrainians.

        They aren't going to be able to keep info suppressed easily when the impression being given to people in host countries of their refugees is bad enough for them to respond this way.

          Parrotting Ukrainian government propaganda is entirely unconnected to the refugee situation and will continue even if the refugees were to be put in prison camps

          Is theft and prostitution and LICE and THE PLAGUE really "rampant"? Right wingers and small business owners will just say this shit.

            There are two wolves inside of you. One of them hates russians for not submitting hard enough to america, the other hates ukrainians for being refugees. You have a bizarre complex about your great grandfather fighting the soviets.

            Oh of course it's likely a minority of them but it doesn't change the fact that the impression being given and the damage is being done. Opinion is shifting and some shops feel confident they can put signs up rejecting Ukrainians despite this kind of sign being very much illegal in EU countries.

                The point isn't that it's "good" or whatever, it's obviously not. The point is that the Eurozone's own chauvinist idiocy could well end up dissolving public support for Ukraine in the war.

    "Oh yeah some of our kids are in there, lets see if we can cordon the shooter off and get those specific kids out"

    So when Biden proposes 200 billion or whatever for police so they can 'tactically clear schools better', do you think the only objection will be some libertarian that got the shit beat out of him by his neighbor, or will there be complete unity?

    I lived in a community like this (and know lots of federal LEOs) and I would have assumed that a border patrol agent chased him into the school and the local cops sat around pissing themselves thinking he was one of el chapo's asesinos. Even those these places have very little violent crime, the level of propoganda they are forced to consume about the "boarder" is intense and internalized by dumb ass cops. Why would the wonderful governor deploy the army to your town if there wasn't an extremely grave and powerful threat?

    At least there actually ARE mexican drug cartels and they aren't imagining that a 10 ft tall superhuman like they said about mike brown.

        Scrawny kids have done most of the killing in human history. The perfect soldier is 19 years old, weights 165lbs, and is too young to have a fully developed prefrontal cortex that will tell him that what he's doing is insane and he should run as far away as he can.

      Michael Tracey:

      Just trying to think of what the most plausible explanation would be. If the explanation really is, "a large number of heavily-armed cops decided to just passively let the mass murder of kids continue without intervening," then the "abolish the police" people were right all along

        I’d like to know this as well. Based on his old tweets, he is a 9/11 first responder who served in Iraq and Afghanistan and has lost multiple nephews in acts of extremely newsworthy gun violence. Also he claims to have had a life saving liver transplant just last week.

        Looks like his dad died too last year but the only comment about it was that NFL shop sent the wrong jersey size

      Yeah I can't imagine. I've run in to some pretty fucking stupid situations over the last few years because I couldn't imagine doing anything else. I can't imagine the mind of someone who was there and had a gun and chose to sit outside and do nothing. I don't know what that kind of animal is.

    I mean didn’t police officers basically run in to grab their kids before putting up the crowd control barriers and tase civ parents?

    Shit doesn’t seem that far-fetched to me no one’s wants to work desk duty for clear homicide-based nepotism.
