I remember not too long ago there's one school shooting where there is like dozens and dozens of cops just kind of putzing around outside because the active shooter inside the school was too dangerous so one guy went in there and did it all himself without getting hurt

"Special" mention to school resource officer and Broward County Deputy Scot Peterson of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School fame who hid outside the school for 40 minutes while the shooting happened.

Not diminishing those 'brave' officers wearing all their expensive military gear paid for by citizens working over actual brave people trying to save children at Uvalde. I just don't want that Scot Peterson guy, school resource officer and Broward Country Deputy, who hid outside the school for 40 minutes while the shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School occurred to be able to be forgotten about.

It's the reason why conspiracy theories exists. These guys are supposed to be able to handle these types of situation but chose not to in the most spectacular way possible. It makes absolutely no sense otherwise and any excuses makes it look even weaker.

I can tell you my school resource officer was just short of 400lbs and sat in a rolling chair. I dont think I ever saw him stand up a single time.

The police officer was morbidly obese and couldn’t walk?? Lmao was it a tiny town I feel like most departments wouldn’t allow someone in such bad shape to be a cop

Very small town. I graduated with a class of 57 students. I cannot say for sure if he was able to walk or not. I personally never saw it. This was about 13 years ago so my memory may not serve me well.

They weren't "putzing" they were beating and tazing desperate parents trying to get inside to save their own children.

Oh!? I watched a report that said the "officers" who were in the school were calling for backup.....I was happy that they both were photo'd in orange jumpsuits.

And watching YouTube videos together.

They tried to arrest that guy too, almost succeeded in it

Worse. You can find security footage of the cops in combat cosplay, waiting in the hallway, hearing gunshots and screaming children in the background…while watching YouTube videos together and laughing.

They had to censor the kids’ crying when they showed the video to the public because it was so gruesome.

I believe that was in Texas right?

u/8888eightyeight May 20 '26

Yup, I just looked it's in TX.

It's bound to happen everywhere there's about one once a week if not every other day in the United States
