So much for a good guy with a gun will stop a bad guy with a gun.

The Uvalde School system had its own police force and they still couldn't protect its schools and
the city of Uvalde had its own SWAT team too.

He prevented the cops from going in for 77 min and 15 min after their backup arrived. The Border Patrol f(backup) finally had enough and took over or else I wonder if all the children would have died before the gutless idiot finally did anything?

Claiming the grounds are "private property". Totally bogus if you ask me, but it happens.

YouTube 1st amendment auditors for examples.
