And the town had a SWAT Team with military weapons! I hope every single member of their useless police force is fired and their salaries sent to the families of the victims.

Chris Hayes makes the salient point that the NRA worldview was tested at Uvalde and utterly failed (especially starting at the 9:40 point). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WJv4ZzFOzw Meanwhile, at the NRA conference, they were still getting cheers with the failed good guy with a gun line. Gun people have steadfastly rejected all reasonable and commonsense gun safety regulations. At the site of the NRA conference, on one side of the street were protesters crying, “Shame, shame, murderers, murderers” in the wake of the Uvalde massacre just a couple days before, and on the other side of the street were other people, brandishing their AR-15s, laughing and mocking the protesters. This is how gun people are radicalizing Americans to give up on reasonable measures and instead favor drastic measures like repealing the 2nd amendment. If they lose the 2nd amendment entirely, it will be their own darn fault for expecting to have rights without responsibility or limits. The party of personal responsibility—not. Besides, for reasons explained in other comments, the 2nd Amendment should have been repealed 200 years ago. Chief Justice Warren Burger called it the greatest fraud ever perpetrated upon Americans here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eya_k4P-iEo

Send the bill to Cruz and the other pols with big mouths who keep saying a good man with a gun will stop a bad man with one. I will lay odds that the police force had nothing worse to deal with then a privileged drunk they let sleep in a cell. What made the town think they needed a SWAT team anyway?
