Tomorrow is the one year anniversary of the terrible day in Uvalde Texas. May we bow are heads in rememberance of the children and their teachers 🙏❤️🙏


This is not an issue of gun control, this is an issue of broken families and mental illness. We the People who have our 2nd Amendment rights are not to blame, there stopped being God Fearing Parents and Right and Wrong. Also, to blame more than Hollywood is the makers of violent video games. They are brain washing the minds of young disturbed minds who are turning to beyond violent measures.

When did M for Mature start meaning E for Everyone?

Once again may the dear Lord be with the town of Uvalde tomorrow.

Bended Heart

Bended Knee

Tears to weep for you and me.

    Total lack of leadership. Someone will have to carry this to their grave.

    Lose their job?? I think they should be in jail!! I thought there were laws about willful neglect or something. Unbelievable!!

    To my mind it is wholly irresponsible to go out into the world incapable of preventing violence, injury, crime, and death. How feeble is the mindset to accept defenselessness, how cheap, how cowardly, how pathetic. Ted Nugent.

    It was a unique situation. Uvalde has its own school police force. Therefore the school police chief, a fat incompetent who was just putting in his time, so he could collect his pension, was in charge of the school shooting situation. Cobarde as they say in Mexico.


    Sadly, all the SWAT team cops followed his orders to do nothing.


    A shameful chapter in police work.

    A very sad and tragic day in our history. I know, anyone of us would have given our lives, to save one of those children. May they rest in peace.

    I feel so sorry that the members of that community were protected by such cowards. Those children deserved better.

    Some will die in hot pursuit
    And fiery auto crashes
    Some will die in hot pursuit
    While sifting through my ashes
    Some will fall in love with life
    And drink it from a fountain
    That is pouring like an avalanche
    Coming down the mountain

    In my career as a Peace Officer, I saw quite a few vacancies, and notices to fill said vacancies, on the SWAT team, also called the TAC team.

    One of the requirements, to which the applicant had to agree, was the requirement to "obey orders immediately and without question."

    I never applied for membership on that team.
