    But remember the police militarized because they were outgunned because of body armor and assault weapons.

    The police chief said they only had handguns, those don't look like handguns to me.

    The fact is they were afraid of the assault style weapon the shooter had.

    Finally getting the message

    School police Chief Pete Arredondo resigns from Uvalde City Council

    Pete Arredondo will resign from his seat on the Uvalde City Council, he told the Uvalde Leader-News Friday.

    Arredondo, also the Uvalde Consolidated ISD police chief, was elected to the council position May 7 and was sworn into the role on May 31, behind closed doors. The swearing-in came less than a week after the May 24 massacre at Robb Elementary School that killed 19 children and two teachers — the deadliest school shooting in Texas history.

    As I said they were afraid of the assault weapon.

    Question is, where was the tear gas, smoke and flash grenades?
    It appears they assumed everyone was dead in that room, wounded or not, and they could just wait the guy out.
