Horrific as the Texas School shootings were, I can hardly believe that the police waited for 40 minutes for SWAT to arrive, FFS!

Especially as this was actually contrary to their own Departments official policy, put into place after a previous school shooting.

FFS!

Even more ridiculous is that some of the US politicians are suggesting now is the time to arm and train teachers to defend their own schools.

Aye, be a bit of a challenge to disarm a country of over 300M people I suppose. Nutters will always get hands on what they need, easy enough to get a gun (legally) in this country too.

Convenient timing too given the absolute horrorshow for them being exposed for having parties, and utterly taking the piss out of us, when we were only allowed 30 people at close friends' funerals. 
 

 

Or exposes the complete hoax that covid is/was?

Easy enough to get a gun legally you say Mull !!! 

That’s absolutely incorrect. 
We have some of the strictest firearms laws of any developed nation. Good reason to possess, medical checks, probationary periods etc etc in all honesty it’s easier to get a firearm illegally than legally in the UK.

If I’m not mistaken the armed teacher training programs have been going for a few years already.

Obviously a good reason, but that can be shooting targets, medical checks? Most of us aren’t mad! Probationary periods What are they?

Mull you obviously have zero understanding of what it takes to obtain and retain an FAC.
