This video make so much more sense now. The cops literally stopped parents from helping their kids.

Every cop in this video could be a hero tonight. Just write a little note and then do what needs to be done. Be a hero for once. You should really do it this time. If you’re a cop and reading this, I believe in you. Do it. It’s your one opportunity at redemption.

Not only did cops with long guns have their tasers out, ready to stop parents from saving their own children, it looks like the cops have one parent pinned to the ground.

You can hear one person yell, "what the fuck are you doing to him? Let him up!"

The full video is over 6 minutes long:

At least one additional kid died directly because the cops were incompetent.

“When the cops came, the cop said: 'Yell if you need help!' And one of the persons in my class said 'help.' The [shooter] overheard and he came in and shot her," the boy said. kens5.com/article/news/s…

Precisely as many as the cops did, by the sound of it.

One thing I heard in this video only after several viewings was a cop saying "we're taking care of it" and a parent yell back "bullshit, he ain't dead yet!" It makes me wonder how they knew from the parking lot. The Washington Post reports gunfire could still be heard at 12:52 pm

Which brings us to the question of when this video was shot exactly. There's another angle on Facebook from across the street where you see the cops finally let the parent on the ground get up. That video is time stamped and puts the beginning of the top clip at around 12:54 pm

It’s hard to say definitively based on the sound from the video but the parents clearly believe they’re hearing gunfire. They’re saying as much and panicking.

Cops will only do their job when the public stops criticizing them for murdering unarmed people.

Imagine thinking the solution is “more cops” after all the videos we’ve seen showing dozens of cops doing nothing but harass parents at the scene.

We still don’t even know when the shooter died. It’s all so bizarre.

“Once freed from her cuffs, Ms. Gomez made her distance from the crowd, jumped the school fence, and ran inside to grab her two children. She sprinted out of the school with them.” wsj.com/articles/uvald…

The video is even worse than the headline suggests. Cops are cowards.

"Miah got some blood and put it on herself so she could pretend she was dead," said Rivera.

Local TV news will be working overtime during the next few weeks to convince you cops are heroes

Just a complete failure to protect
