The 19 children and two teachers killed in Tuesday's elementary school massacre in Texas were in the same classroom, where the gunman "barricaded" himself and fired indiscriminately, a law enforcement official said Wednesday. Those who were hurt in the shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde were also injured in that one classroom, Texas Department of Public Safety spokesperson Lt. Chris Olivarez told CNN. The shooter, identified by multiple senior law enforcement officials as Salvador Rolando Ramos, 18, "was able to make entry into a classroom, barricaded himself inside that classroom, and again, just began shooting, uh, numerous children and teachers

I am waiting to hear if Ramos was an American citizen. I read one news article that said he was, but I haven't believed everything I read in the papers for decades.

And the next time the leftist lying talking heads say "this only happens in the USA"......note that the top 12 school massacres world wide all happened in other countries. Chile, Russia, Sri Lanka, all over the world. Sorry, this is just another worn out LIE. Sadly, vicious, evil, violent people who want to cause a lot of mayhem see a bunch of children grouped together as an attractive target.

Ramos was "from" South Dakota earlier...moved at some point to Uvalde. Some question about how long ago.(some question of whether his Mom/Dad/He were all citizens, where he was born) He was a lisping, make up wearing, emo/goth, who dressed all in black...not a great "Fit" in a town like Uvalde where nearly everyone dresses "Cowboy" regardless of race/creed/color/national origin ...or birth gender.. Sort of like the Columbine guys and the Sandy Hook freak.(and your friendly local Antifa...everywhere)

At the school where i worked, all exterior doors are locked all the time. Visitors have to be “buzzed in” by the school secretary. School system employees have ID cards that will allow them to enter one entrance. Seems like all schools should go to this.

Poster 6 -- That was my first question -- how did he get in the school? You have to show ID and best buzzed into my kids' public schools. I thought after Sandy Hook this was protocol for all public schools. It definitely should be.

How many kids were in that classroom? How many survived? These families will bear this trauma for the rest of their lives and so will the children who survived. Take God out of the public square, murder over 60 million unborn babies, teach racial hatred to toddlers and this is the end result. Jesus wept.

I do not believe he intended to target this svhool. He was being chased by Border Patrol officers when he crashed his vehicle into a ditch. He ran. Was the school the nearest place where he could take refuge and barricade himself? He did just that in one classroom, where he shot the victims. What caused the Border Patrol to be vhasing him? The border is near Uvalde. He was legal, a citizen born in North Dakota. Was he dealing weapons at the border? Something else? We have much to learn...

The President is protected by guns. Congress is protected by guns. Judges and court houses are protected by guns. Children are protected at school by a sign that says “Gun free zone”.

Americans, this type of senseless brutal mass murder happens frequently a few hundred miles south of where this took place. MS-13 and the Cartel thugs regularly wipe out entire villages of innocent residents, including children, if they feel "betrayed" by the residents. Now that the Cartels have infiltrated the American southwest, expect more of this senseless violence to increase. The pressure on young Hispanics boys to join these gangs is immense.

Seems lots of red flags that this kid was unstable. Felon grandfather seems a bit questionable that he did not know the kid had a couple of long rifles in the house. Expensive ones at that. I would like to know how he was able to afford that and ammo at 18. I guess he wasnt saving for school.

The shooter was a coward for picking on children and women. An absent father and a drug using mother are not good for either male or female children. If we're going to continue the trend of women having babies and being the sole parent in their upbringing then we need to address the ratio of female to male teachers in the education system. We need to make teaching more LUCRATIVE and attractive to men of all ages, and backgrounds, in spite of the complaints that the feminists will no doubt voice. We have a real ongoing problem here, which, feminism, and the welfare state has created: the lack of males in the household. Male teachers beginning from Kindergarten on can fill a hole in children's lives if there is no father, or Grandfather at home. I cannot believe that I will say this, but perhaps it does take a village to raise a child. This will continue to happen if we don't pay attention to our boys' mental health issues.

Man Busted Beto for 'Propaganda' While

We reported earlier how Beto O’Rourke tried to hijack the press conference that Gov. Greg Abbott and other Texas officials were holding in regard to the Uvalde mass shooting. Most found his action unconscionable when people were dealing with such tragedy, although some on the left appeared to praise it. Rep. Dean Phillips (D-MN) compared O’Rourke to the “Tank Man” from the Tiananmen Square massacre in a horrible take, claiming Beto was “speaking truth to power.” Phillips subsequently deleted the tweet. But while Beto was trying to interrupt the people dealing with tragedy, a man in the audience interrupted Beto in turn. Cody Ytuarte, a carpenter who was there for family affected

Just one week ago, this same pollster offered an outlier single-digit gap for Joe Biden’s job approval rating, 42/50. Suddenly, however, the Reuters/Ipsos tracking poll has Biden at a -23 gap and 36/59 on overall job approval. That puts Reuters/Ipsos on the other side of the outlier category, with a gap fully ten points larger than the latest survey from … Rasmussen Reports. What happened? U.S. President Joe Biden’s public approval rating fell this week to 36%, the lowest level of his presidency, as Americans suffered from rising inflation, according to a Reuters/Ipsos opinion poll completed on Tuesday. The two-day national poll found that 59% of Americans disapprove of Biden’s job performance.

More voters trust congressional Republicans on gun policy than Democrats, a Politico/Morning Consult poll released Wednesday found. The poll asked 2,005 registered voters who they “trust more to handle” gun policy. Forty-four percent trusted Republicans, while 41 percent trusted Democrats, a three-point gap and above the margin of error of two percent. Sixteen percent had no opinion. On Tuesday, 19 children and 2 adults were killed in a mass shooting at a Uvalde, Texas, elementary school. The shooter was 18 years of age and old enough to legally purchase a firearm. The Associated Press reported: The Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District said the active shooter situation was reported

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) says she doesn’t believe “that DC solutions are realistic” for stopping massacres like yesterday’s in Uvalde, Texas. NBC’s Jake Sherman said Sinema stopped reporters outside the Senate chamber because she “had something to say.” “This is rare” for her, he added. Sherman asked if Sinema would be willing to “set aside” the filibuster to force some kind of gun control measure through the evenly divided Senate. Her fellow Democrat Senator, Jon Tester of Montana, waited mere hours after Tuesday night’s slaughter to press for universal background check legislation. “Come on guys, kids got killed yesterday for Christ’s sakes,” he told colleagues this morning.

A recount will be held for the Republican Pennsylvania Senate primary in Pennsylvania, the state’s top elections official announced on Wednesday. Dr. Mehmet Oz, the TV show host who was endorsed by former president Trump, led former hedge-fund manager Dave McCormick by 902 votes after all counties submitted unofficial vote tallies on Tuesday. An automatic vote recount is triggered under Pennsylvania law when a candidate wins by less than 0.5 percent of the vote, and Oz won the primary by 0.08 percent. “I want to emphasize that this automatic recount is intended to ensure that the count is accurate and that there is confidence in the results and outcome,”

Described by one pupil as an 'emo', his lisp also made him a target, according to the Washington Post, with classmates claiming he endured gay slurs. Another said he was mocked for his clothing.

That’s what you’re going to hear from the Republicans. They will divert it, so they don’t have to talk about the real problem, which is access to guns.”
