The inexplicable, heart-wrenching delay in Uvalde underscores the indispensable role of police.
@davidaxelrod When a group makes a disaster worse it just goes to show how important that group is, so true
@davidaxelrod Actually it underscores the need to re-direct law enforcement spending to rigorous hiring, screening, psych testing, training, more training, ongoing psych assessment, more training, accountability, developing real leadership, training, and the ability to remove the unsuitable.
@davidaxelrod WTF are you talking about? Police have the least responsibility for such catastrophes.
@davidaxelrod Yes. Because if they hadn’t pepper sprayed and handcuffed parents they might have actually had the time to enter the school instead of standing outside doing absolutely nothing of use for over an hour.
@davidaxelrod There were plenty of police there that day. They just didn’t do their job for those poor little kids. There’s no acceptable excuse for that.
@davidaxelrod This is 4D chess at its finest. Frankly I’m not even sure you could explain it.
