Interview with Angeli Gomez, the mother who ran into the school to save her kids:



Text

Angeli Gomez, the mother of two Robb Elementary School students, was handcuffed by Marshals after urging officers to enter the school during the shooting.

When she was uncuffed, she raced into the school to save her sons — and believes police “could have saved many more lives."

The "Protect and Serve" people did their best to keep her from saving her children.

way of a mother's love, well maybe a FEDERAL Marshal...but even being handcuffed by that marshal she found a way to save her children. Courage personified. Those cowards with their vests and automatic weapons and helmets and ...oh the hell with it. Their heroism:0 Mothers love heroism: to infinity

I still don't understand how those cowards could stand around doing nothing, Harassing parents wanting their kids saved from a gunman. There is just no excuse ever for their reaction or non-action to save innocent lives. No excuse!!!. The stain and smell of cowardice can never go away.

I am sure other parents would have done the same if allowed and they had not harassed by the supposed “protectors”. I am glad she is telling her story now, I am sure we will hear more in time.
