1. there were armed people at the school shooting in Portland...

their fear was that they would be mistaken by the swat team as the shooter so their weapons never came out

[atreides1]

2. Ahh

So far one has resigned/retired, two other deputies were placed on restricted duty while the sheriff's office investigates whether they "could've" or "should've" done more!

Could the remaining officer belong to another agency, other then the Broward County Sheriffs Department?

3. Well...

4. Well There Goes Yet Another Trumpublican Talking Point

[Ligyron]

5. Of course not.

They might get shot.

7. Sorry NRA - the police aren't going to bail you out

Nobody would walk toward their death...

8. Police have no duty to protect individuals or enforce any particular law

9. So, we need 5 good guys with a gun now? n/t

[sunonmars]

10. if the cops aint going in, what makes you think a teacher gonna get involved...

[procon]

11. Stop all this nonsense and just get rid of the damn military style weapons.

We've already passed the legislation and it was in effect for a decade, but Bush let it expire, so just vote to renew it.

Republicans are so eager to spend money training and equipping teachers and paying them a bonus to double as armed security guards, instead, fund a buyback program to take some of those weapons off the street.

12. Meanwhile a football coach ran toward the gunfire, unarmed, and died

Those officers are cowards and need to be FIRED IMMEDIATELY

Those poor kids
