BREAKING: Active shooter at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, school district says

[sneakypete]

No, don't you see the media line will be all those children he murdered won't be his fault it will because he was bullied because he was transgendered, and that's why those little children that had nothing to do with it had to die. 

@GtHawk

I agree that is the JUSTIFICATION that will be used to excuse the shooter,but it is BullBush and anybody that thinks about it for 10 seconds will realize this.

There is ALWAYS a bully in any class of school kids. Yet,almost all seem to get over it by either maturing,or being taught manners by a fellow student.

EVERYBODY gets bullied when they are a child. Even some of the bullies,when they pick on the "wrong" kid. I personally cured one of this myself when I was in elementary school by applying a baseball bat to his person,and telling him through the tears if he EVER bleeped with me again I was going to beat him with the bat until I wore it out.

Didn't really hit him hard enough to really hurt him,but I did hit him hard enough to knock him down and scare the hell out of him. Hell,I was probably as scared as he was.

I did it in public,on school grounds in front of everybody,too. Never had ANYBODY  try to pick on me after that. And,of course,I never tried to pick on anyone else,either.

I had a reaction to the first batch of Polio Shots distributed,and was bed-ridden for a few months,and this seemed to have an effect on my height. I had been normal,or maybe a touch taller than normal before,but it did something to my genes that really slowed down my growth. Even after I recovered,it took me months to be able to run faster than a walk. This really pissed me off because I loved playing baseball,and this made it awful hard for me to run to a base without  getting tagged out.  Didn't interfere with my muscle development,but really put the skids on growing much taller.

Or at least I am ASSUMING it was the reaction to the polio shot that caused this to happen.

Don't remember that SOB ever bulling anyone again. He was one of those freaks of nature that was probably a foot taller than everybody else,and loved using his size to intimidate everyone else and try to impress the girls.

The truth is,I did him a favor because if he had kept that crap up,sooner or later he would have met someone who would have just killed him outright. Or even a group of "someones".

I have said it before and I will keep saying it until people listen or I pass away. We need to train and arm willing teachers and school staff.

Good luck finding one.

He wasn't exactly in the closet because there had to be someone taking those photos.

There are some in almost every school.  They just don't talk about it in order to keep the peace with the liberal whackjobs.

There are some school districts in Texas that allow teachers to be armed and have armed teachers.

Texas school shooter Salvador Ramos was bullied at school because of the clothes he wore and because his family was poor, former classmate says

    A 'close' friend of Salvador Ramos, 18, said the shooter used to be made fun of for his clothing and because his family was poor
     He said Ramos began showing up to class less and less from the bullying and 'slowly dropped out'
    'He barely came to school,' the friend, who didn't want to be identified, said
    The friend said the pair kept up with each other occasionally through Xbox messages, but had largely lost contact after Ramos graduated
    However, Ramos - who had purchased two rifles on his 18th birthday just days before the shooting - sent the friend pictures of his guns and magazines
    When asked why he had it, Ramos reportedly replied: 'Don't worry about it'

A former classmate, who asked not to be identified, told CNN he and Ramos were somewhat 'close' and used to play Xbox together. The killer was a fan of the shooting and combat game Call of Duty.

On his since removed Instagram account, Ramos is believed to have shared a photo of two AR15-style rifles just three days before the killing at Robb Elementary school, while the bio on his TikTok page chillingly read: 'Kids be scared irl' (in real life).

While the motive for the massacre is not yet known, one neighbor told local news channel Newsy that he witnessed Ramos, who worked at a Wendy's, arguing with his grandmother, claiming he was 'angry that he did not graduate'.

Shooting

Sometime before 11:30 a.m., Ramos shot and wounded his grandmother at their home in Uvalde;[18][19] she was airlifted and hospitalized in critical condition.[20]

After crashing his vehicle into a ditch outside of the school,[2][15] Ramos—who, according to police, was wearing body armor, a backpack, and all black clothing while carrying a handgun, an AR-15 style rifle, and high capacity magazines—entered the school through its south entrance at around 11:30 a.m. CDT.[18][21][22] According to police, Ramos shot a UCISD police officer who attempted to stop him from entering the building.[23] The UCISD police chief estimated that the shooting of students and teachers at the school began two minutes later and, according to a Facebook post by the school, the school was placed on lockdown at 11:43 a.m. in response to gunshots in the vicinity.[24] At 1:17 p.m., UCISD sent out a message on Twitter that there was an active shooter at the elementary school.[21]

As UCISD officers exchanged fire with Ramos, Border Patrol Tactical Unit agents joined them in response to a request for assistance; one sustained a head injury.[23] A source told the Los Angeles Times a Border Patrol agent shot and killed Ramos.[2]

He could have been taking them himself with his phone/camera on a timer.

Ok,if this guy was poor,where did he get the money to buy girls clothes and a couple of AR-15's? Hell,*I* can't afford to buy a couple of AR-15's without saving from my budget for a few months.

Also,if he "rarely went to school",how the hell did he graduate?

Always a good question (not just the gun(s) but the body armor and ammunition, too).

[txradioguy]

NBC 2 in Houston is now saying the shooter didn't have body armor...just the plate carrier.

Yeah, I haven't bought any new stuff in a while, it just isn't in the budget...

Only good as a load bearing unit without the plates...

[Hoodat]

I want to know where he got ammo.  'Cause I can't find any ammo for myself.

There are some that are supposed to stop a 9mm. Never wanted to test that theory though. I always wore my plates.

[Hoodat]

Do we know if the murder was born in the US, and if not, when and how he entered the country?

[Gefn]

@Gefn The very first recorded school shooting happened in 1840 John Anthony Gardner Davis, a law professor at the University of Virginia, was shot by student Joseph Semmes and died three days later.

That’s interesting. I didn’t know that.

I bet it was a horrible way to go too, with medicine at that time.

Thanks @verga
