    It's so obvious these pigs killed someone aside from the shooter in there. That has to be one of the biggest reasons as to why they've circled the wagons and decided to be petulant about any investigation.

      One of their very first public pronouncements was "law enforcement officers did NOT kill any kids. Repeat, did not kill any children on the crime scene."

      Okay. Weird thing to open with. :fry:

        yep, ‘Texas law enforcement officials at a press conference say they believe that all the children that were shot and killed in Uvalde, TX were shot by Salvador Ramos and not anyone else [i.e. law enforcement].’ https://mobile.twitter.com/Tom_Winter/status/1529524085759385600?t=ZeDs0p3ksabKcqxQA07QdQ&s=19

        The justice of the peace said the police moved children’s bodies into two separate rooms. He isn’t a trained or expert coroner. They are absolutely covering shit up.

      One child reported that an officer called out from the hallway, "Yell if you need help!" And when a child in the class yelled out, the shooter found them and shot them. So they directly got one child killed, at least.

    Let me know if it needs a content warning. I'm leaning towards no but I'll change it if asked to.

    I've seen so many people radicalized by this shooting. But I've also heard from friends of friends making up some of the most bullshit conspiracies to make up for the lack of police response.

    lol, good content. the inserts of Frakes doing his beyond belief thing is :chefs-kiss:

    i never watched that show growing up, but clips from it kill me every time. his delivery is the perfect counterpoint to the stumbling bullshittery offered to the generally non-confrontational press.

          :thumb-cop: First I want to acknowledge the brave law enforcement officers---it was an active situation right now it's a terrible situation right now---officers are actively tactically engaging with the situation as it evolves. At this time we do know that the suspect was travelling at a high rate of speed for a long period of time and at this time we can say that the suspect is neutralized thanks to the brave work of our law enforcement officers---that's all the we can report about the current situation---it's a terrible situation---but we have eliminated the suspect thanks to the brave law enforcement officers who were able to tactically engage the suspect before neutralizing him.

        Sheriffs love them too. I think they can be neat, like bolo ties. But any old white guy who’s politically connected with a bolo tie and/or cowboy hat is probably demonic.

    very good use of the clockwork orange boot licking scene

    very good use of :picard:

    nice agitprop. always good to see people make stuff

    EDIT: that 2nd to last clip glitched out because you were using screen recording software (or at least I surmise from the visible watermark). I recommend youtube-dl command line tool for ripping vids from the internet. Even if it's not on youtube it often works for other websites, especially if you're able to find an m3u8 playlist link in the Network tab or HTML tab of your browser's inspector tool. It's a little extra work but it helps you get a hold of files you'd otherwise not have access to.

      It was glitched on the source. I couldn't find, or was too lazy to find it on youtube. I use yt-dlp, which is even faster than youtube-dl, but I didn't know it worked on other sites; that's boss. I used Video DownloadHelper on some sites but it wasn't always helpful.

      At first they said it was true, then they said it wasn't true. And now they're not cooperating with federal investigators so who knows. :shrug-outta-hecks: I think they're covering up the story.
