The Adams Archive

Jun 2 2022 • 1 hr 15 mins

In this week's episode, we discuss the Uvalde, Texas shooting again now that the smoke has cleared and more information has started to come out. We discuss the three different sides, including the perspective that it was tragic and that everything that could have been done was done. The second is that more could have been done in the response. The third is by those who are questioning the mainstream narrative altogether. We also discuss the heroism displayed by many parents during this time of distress, including a mother who was arrested only to escape, jump a fence and save her children. Finally, we discussed the law enforcement's approach and if there was more that could be done. All of that and more on this week's episode!

Welcome to red pill revolution. My name is Austin Adams. Red pill revolution started out with me realizing every thing that I knew, everything that I believed, everything I interpret about my life is through the lens of the information I was spoonfed as a child, religion, politics, history, conspiracies, Hollywood medicine, money, food, all of it, everything we know was tactfully written to influence your decisions and your view on reality by those in power.

Now I'm on a mission, a mission to retrain and reeducate myself to find the true reality of what is behind that curtain. And I'm taking your ass with me. Welcome to the rebel.

Hello, and welcome to red pill revolution. My name is Austin Adams. Thank you so much for listening today. I appreciate it so much from the bottom of my heart today, we have a very, very interesting episode. It is now been a week or so since the tragic horrific, uh, shooting that happened in you validate Texas.

Um, and now it's time that the smoke has cleared a little bit. We have a little bit more information in, and I think it's time that we dive deeper into this topic. Now, the first episode that we did on you validate was basically about how our politicians reactions were just completely inappropriate, uh, how it was almost saddening to see the politicized.

Of the way that our politicians just kind of went about addressing this right? From, from president Biden to Kamala Harris, basically everything that they had to say about the shooting had to do in some way with gun control in some way with, you know, shaming other politicians. Um, and so today we're going to kind of look at the facts right there.

There's a lot of different controversies that have come out of this. Um, there's a lot of different viewpoints that people have when it comes to this situation and we're going to touch on all of them. I'm going to try and take as much as I possibly can. A non-biased approach in explaining to you guys the three, what I believe to be the three most common belief systems surrounding you validate taxes and the shooting that occurred.

Okay. So I'll take you through what those three things are. Okay. The first viewpoint that I see being somewhat common is that it was a tragic, terrible, horrible. The police did everything. They could. They, they, they were in there according to some sources. Uh, they didn't wait outside. Um, they did what they should've done.

Okay. That's one viewpoint. The next viewpoint is that it was a terrible tragedy. It was horrific. And the police, the sheriffs, the whoever was on the scene at the time did not do exactly what they should have done. They did not go in soon enough. Um, they did not, you know, follow their own guidelines of their own, you know, uh, books and trainings that they had on this, that somebody dug up where it speaks about how to address this situation.

Um, so that's the secondary, uh, approach to this? Is that not only was it, you know, obviously it was a terrible horrific tragedy and, um, but also the fact that maybe there should have been a different response. Okay. And then the third one, the most controversial opinion on this topic is that, uh, something that we've been seeing a lot around is questioning the narrative.

Okay. Now I have to tread quite lightly on that side of things. Um, we w like I said, this is going to be to the best of my abilities, a non-biased approach to going over what these viewpoints are, why people may believe that the police did do the right thing, why people believe maybe they didn't do the wrong thing, and why people believe or disbelieve the narrative that has been going on here.

Okay. Now you'll see, I have to tiptoe pretty, really pretty well with the way that I'm going to approach this, but I will try my best. So that is going to be our episode. All right. That's what we're going to be touching on the three different kind of viewpoints on that today. Um, so I hope you stick around.

It's going to be a great episode. I have a lot more things kind of organized for this podcast. I think it could be fairly clumsy if I just went about it my normal way, where I just kind of, you know, frivolously talk like I'm sitting at the bar with you. So I put together a little bit of a, a little, a little, a couple, few points that I want to touch on and some things.

All right. Now the very first part of this that I would like to talk to, um, is kind of some of the sources surrounding the way that I've been kind of gaining my, uh, perspective on this. Okay. Now it's very difficult when you know, every day and every scenario right now, it's difficult to touch on. Um, I really tried to get a non-biased opinion.

So there's a few new sources that I follow. And the one that I've been seeing do the best job following the, you validate Texas shooting to this point has been a, not so small. I started following this, this, uh, Instagram account probably at the very beginning of the Maxwell trials. I think we probably started our accounts around the same exact time.

Um, and they've just been crushing. It, it, it's, it's a great platform. It's where I get a lot of my, what I feel to be non-biased opinions. Um, and some really like boots on the ground, hard nose bad-ass journalists. Um, and that is real news. No bullshit on Instagram. Um, I think they got a website. I don't know what the URL is, but real news, no bullshit on Instagram.

It has a tremendous, I mean, they are literally in, you validate the last several days interviewing from what I've seen so far, they went and knocked on the door of the parents of the shooter. Okay. He has no name to me. He is a nobody. He's the horrific shooter in this incident. So he has no name, but he, they knocked on his parent's door.

And, uh, the, I guess the mom answered, she said, douchey didn't want to talk to him. Um, so then they, uh, father came out and asked them to leave. They respectfully said, okay, they walked away. Um, they did not push any further, but they wanted to at least see if they could get a comment. Okay. Now, when they did that, they actually got a man from across the street who declined to being on camera, but they showed a little bit of him, um, during this conversation and they interviewed this individual.

Now I'm not going to show this, this direct interview, but it had some key highlighted points. It was fairly long. Um, but the key points to me were that this individual said that he was like the, the, the, the town dad, right? They were the, this. Shoot or lived in a trailer park and you validate taxes. This guy said that, you know, I had all the kids come over, he had a pool table downstairs.

They all like to play video games. He said they didn't really see anything off about this individual. Um, it had been a couple of years since he had been over there. Uh, but what he felt was that, you know, it was, it was a, there was some key points that he had regarding the parents in this situation. Okay.

So they interviewed this guy who was across the street from where the mom lived of the shooter. And what he said was that, first of all, he had no expenses, right? There's all this talk around. Where did they get all the ammo? Where do they get the, the, um, you know, the Daniel defense I'm for, where did he get the other rifle?

Where did he get the, you know, all of this, all this conversations surrounding the financial aspects of it. And he said he had no bills. I guess somebody, I saw a few times that the guy worked at Wendy's. I don't see anywhere that that's been substance. Uh, but I think it's interesting. So he said there's, he didn't think he had any bills.

Now, the individual, the shooter in this case, um, lived with his grandma. Okay. The mom, according to this guy who lived across the street from her was, uh, according to him, hooked on what he called ice, which is methamphetamines. And, um, and so her boyfriend got her hooked on meth and there was a horrible situation and they got in all sorts of arguments.

And so after a while, um, he ended up moving in with his grandma. Okay. Now what I think was the key point from that interview was actually that he, he said that, um, the grandma owns the trailer that the mom lived in of the shooter. Okay. Owns the trailer. The grandma did. Now. He went to live with the grandma, the grandma, if you recall, the actual facts of the situation ended up being the first victim.

Of his shooting spree. And so, um, now the key point that I want to take from that interview was that he said that two days prior, two days prior to this individual going and shooting this school up and Rob elementary school, and you validate taxes two days prior, the grandma was trying to evict his mother from their trailer because she was trying to sell it.

Now, the mother's response specifically was that she was going to burn them according to this man, burn the motherfucker down if before she'd let her get evicted. Okay. So apparently there was a very heated exchange between the grandma, between the mother, um, about her getting evicted from the, uh, from the trailer that she owned the grandma owned.

Okay. Now, if you want to talk about emotive. I've seen enough law and order to know that that it's a potential motive, right? That's a heated exchange between somebody that he feels dearly about. Um, so I think that's really important now. And even more interesting point about that is the fact that they, the police never even interviewed this man.

Never, never interviewed this man. Once he said he even went up to them and talk to them and like never not a single person came up to him. He like came out there and found real news, no bullshit over by the trailer. And like, Hey, you guys want to come talk to me? So he like sought them out. It wasn't that hard.

Okay. So, um, interesting point that the police have yet to interview this man, a man who lives right across the street, who has the potential idea of what the motive was in this situation. You think that that might be an interesting individual. For these police officers, the FBI, whoever the hell is on this case, I'm sure Scooby doo and all his friends are there too.

You think that this man would be a person of interest for them to interview, especially if he knows something about what was happening about the lives, about the mom's drug addictions, about the relationship between the grandma and the mother about, you know, so, so many intricate parts of this relationship.

He literally had a front row seat to this house and everything that happened there. Okay. So why is the police not interviewing this man? Why are they not talking to somebody who claims that two days prior? There was a huge altercation at this house. Why, why are they not talking to this man? Okay. I think that's interesting now the next thing that they discussed, um, or the next part of their story, which I'll play some of it here for you.

I kind of want to get away from playing too, too many longer clips for you guys. Um, so I'm going to try my best to tell these stories for you now, the next individual that they interviewed. Um, and again, this is real news, no bullshit on Instagram, tremendous journalism. The next person that they interviewed was a border patrol agent who drove 85 miles from 85 miles away at like 150 miles per hour.

He doesn't say how fast he's going. They go like a hundred. And he's like, yeah, faster than that, 85 miles, this man got there in 40 minutes. Somebody out there is much better at math than me and you guys can do the math, but 85 miles in about 40 minutes. And, uh, he said that he got there and I'll play a little bit of this clip here.

I think maybe we'll we'll touch on this, but basically what this man says is. He got there. He was curious as soon as he got there, it took him. So it took him 45 minutes to get there. They radioed in, there was 45 minutes. This man hauls ass, 85 miles away from the border let's go of for illegal immigrants so that he can go handle.

This situation gets there. And the shooter still not taking care of right there, sitting outside. He said, now this is an important key point because there's been a lot of back and forth here when it comes to, were they outside? Were they inside? And we're going to dive deeper into those conversations. But I think it's important to note that this border patrol agent said that he got there and there were in there.

They still hadn't shot him. He was still in there. They retreated according to this man. They went in initially they received. And then they retreated, right? No injuries, no police are dead. At least from my knowledge, I don't believe any police died if they did that's horrific too. Um, but it, it tells me something that he was on scene at the time he was there and he says they went in and then they went out, they left the area, you know, the area that was being shot up by a single individual while there's 18, 20, however many guys sitting out there with their rifles ready, enable, and obviously not willing, but ready and able to be able to go in there.

Was it a breakdown in the chain of command? Was it a retreat because they weren't tactically ready? Was it? I don't know, but what I do know. Is that it should not take that long to get into a building. Now I said that would be non-biased, I'm going to try and retract and not retract because I believe every one of those things that I just said to you, but let's touch on the first topic here, which I think is important.

Now, one thing I think is a, is an important issue to touch on too, is, you know, a lot of people are saying, why is this happening in the U S right? Why is this happening in the United States, more than any other country, right? Is it the access to guns? Cause that's, we know it's a contributing factor according to these people, why does the us have a higher percentage of these mass shootings occurred, uh, compared to other countries?

Why? And I think that's an interesting question. And I think it's an important question. I think it's something that we have to deal with head-on and I think as something that we have to take an educated non-emotional approach to answering. And so here's my thought on that. Okay. When, when I believe when things, so there's a good example.

I have this, that will kind of drive this point home for you. But so when, when it's something, as in the human consciousness, the youngian theory of the, um, of the greater consciousness, of, of the consciousness of humanity, that's all intertwined. Um, if you don't know anything about that theory, you should go look it up.

But basically the idea is that there's a collective unconscious is the actual term for it. Okay. Now, when something is happening in the universe, in the, in the, in the ether, in the ether, when something's happening in the ether, it, it goes across the consciousness of all the individuals who are intertwined with that individual.

Okay. So in this particular situation, it is a part of the United States of America is human collective unconscious that these shootings have been happening for a while. Now, now I posted a statistic today and what I said was on this day, CNN was founded 42 years. Since that date, that CNN was founded 42 years ago, school shootings have increased by 100% per decade for the last four decades.

So under the logic of the gun argument, it would be just, it would make just as much sense that we, I don't know, ban CNN as this to ban weapons. There's a correlation. And if you look deep enough into anything, you can always find some way to connect the strings. And that's what we see our politicians doing here is they find a string.

They pull on it. It's something that they've wanted to do all along, and they're utilizing this as a platform to do so. Okay. So if you look deep enough into any one of these, any specific piece of data, usually you can find some way to play mental gymnastics and find that to be the. So in this individual case, I think the reason that we have a higher percentage of these shootings in the United States is because of that collective unconscious, the same way that, um, you know, when it gets romanticized in these terrible, you know, really deeply distraught communities of like, you know, the, the deep dark corners of shadows of the internet, i, I would see it easily being romanticized people, watching the Columbine shootings and like, you know, all sorts of terrible things. Now there's the analogy that I'm speaking on that I think speaks to this the most is that there was a book that was written surrounding the difference in manifestations of mental health issues.

And so what this book kind of outlined was the trans movement, having something to do with a new manifestation of the same mental illnesses, because what. You know, and again, I'll say that I just talked about it. You can correlate a lot of things, but what this book outlines for you is how the percentage of young individuals who were having mental illnesses that were presenting themselves in the way of bulemia and anorexia had that same amount that went away like that the same statistical amount that did not, did no longer identify as having bulemia or anorexia, or had these, you know, actually psychological evaluations to do so.

The same percentage that were normally presenting their mental health issues as anorexia and bulimia. We're now presenting them in this, you know, transgender, gender dysphoria, whatever this book wanted to outline it as. Okay. So my point with that is it's a manifestation. It it's, it's the, you know, the collective unconscious way for a manifestation of these mental health issues.

Okay. So that's just that, that is a piece of the puzzle. I'm not saying that's why it happens most often the United States. I do think that there's a conversation to be had surrounding. Weapons right surrounding, you know, the amount of weapons that we have. However, there's definitely contradicting data points.

Like I believe it's Iceland, that's far more armed than we are that has far more guns per individual, per thousand and has far less gun crimes. Okay. So there's contradicting evidence for that, but I do think that there's absolutely something to that collective unconscious. And I do believe that with it being such a hot topic in the United States, it's always deemed to repeat itself because now the sick individuals who have the most rotted mental, uh, I don't know, state find, uh, now know the way that they can get the most attention out of, out of their anguish, and how they get their name on every news station. And it's gross and it's sick and it's horrible, but it's a manifestation of those mental health issues and the mental health issues that, you know, some politicians even went as far as to say, as he has no mental health issues really. He has no mental health issues because there's no way that you're able to do this horrific act, unless you have some type of horrific mental health issue.

Okay. Anyways, let's go back to the original point here. Okay. So the three parts of this conversation, the first one's going to be, this is a horrible tragedy, right? The three different perspectives on this shooting. The first one is this is a horrible tragedy. It's terrible. What happened? The police did everything right.

It's happenstance. There's nothing we could've done to improve this situation. Um, it's just terrible. The cops did everything. There's that's the main point. Okay. Now there was a video that came up where a teacher that was within the building came out and said that she believed the cops were in the building.

Okay. She believes that the cops were there at the moment. They were trying to help us. And she goes on to say that she sh you know, who's ever saying this, and she doesn't say this specifically, but basically she was outlining the fact that the cops. Now, when we go into the next part of the conversation, we'll realize that there is evidence to show that they were in there.

Just like that individual, who I was talking about earlier that border patrol agent, who said that they came in there, then they retreated. Then they went and sat in the parking lot for 55, 60 minutes, and then they decided, oh you know, we're still not going to go in until this border patrol agent that was off duty when against their orders and went and took him down.

Okay. So, but there is an individual who says that they were in there. It's a very, very low, very it's, uh, it's, uh, it doesn't have much substance to it, to me because there's already evidence showing that they went in there initially, but then they retreated pulled out according to this border patrol agent who was there at the time.

And then they went back in. So she could be very well referencing the, the initial part, where they went in there before, and then actually retreated because how would she know she was sitting in a, a, um, you know, a school room by herself with her kids right. In this chaos. How would she know exactly what's going on?

I'm not saying she's not telling the truth. When I am saying is they went in initially according to other accounts, then they retreated out. Then they went back in 55, 60 minutes later. So that doesn't disprove anything that we're talking about here, but it does give a talking point to the individuals who were saying that they did everything, nothing could have changed. And this is a horrific event and we shouldn't be pointing fingers and maybe we should be looking at policy reform and all these other things. Okay. Which isn't wrong. Isn't wrong. In some sense. And the fact that, you know, obviously we have to have a deeper conversation around why these issues are happening, but also if we have a police force, that's sitting there with rifles, get your ass in there and save the kids.

That's your job. That's what you're supposed to do. And we're going to outline an incredible story of a mother who did just that to save her children after being handcuffed by these police officers got out of the handcuffs. All right, we're going to talk on that. And then on the next portion of this, so we're going to talk on that mother because it's truly an incredible, you know, bad ass mama bear moment.

Really, truly one of the heroes of this day was this mother who jumped the fence after being handcuffed placed on the ground, went in there, got into the building and saved her children, walked out with them. Incredible. We'll, we'll, we'll discuss more of that detail in a minute here. Okay. So, so in other points of this though, is, is to me, is like, what, what would be frustrating is if you were a teacher, like think of a teacher, I feel.

Sending my children to, I have children, I have children. And when these things happen, right when the Oxford shooting happens a few months ago, um, it was much more near me than you validate Texas. Um, it hit really close to home. And so, um, it was really difficult then next day, it's like, it's concerning. I placed my child in the care of somebody else and I have no powerless.

And if something, if I'm in a room and something, shit like that's happening or going down, I know I can do something about it, but to place your children in a situation like that a day or two after, because again, that collective unconsciousness that young and collective unconsciousness around those days presents itself in copycats.

We've seen it when they came to the, when it came down to the Oxford shooting, the days proceeding that. All the schools in the local area shut down because there is so many threats, so many stupid ass, 16 year olds, 15 year olds posting on their Snapchat story that they were going to do the same thing.

Like all this gross, disgusting, this that was going on after of all these people threatening to be copycats in this situation. Um, so it was very uncomfortable as a parent to send your child to school. After this week, I've still feel like dropped my daughter off at school today still feels weird. Don't like it it's uncomfortable.

I don't like being out of the control of my child's safety, right? Especially when these things are happening in the, especially when the percentage likelihood that thinks things will repeat themselves around these dates come up again, right? The likelihood that that collective unconscious is coming together and some other super messed up mentally unhealthy individual who bought $8,700 worth of guns and ammo decides that he wants to put his name up on CNN's lights.

So th so they go into the situation and the, and the, just the likelihood, the collective unconsciousness is surrounding that, that action. And then they see the outcome. They see that these people, you know, their, their names everywhere, they're famous. And they're, they're infamous. And when you're in that sick, disgusting, horrific place, it almost becomes romanticized.

Like I said earlier. So as a parent, it's uncomfortable. Now, I also can't imagine being a teacher in this situation, can't imagine being a teacher in this situation. Imagine if there was a massive shooting where somebody went into an accountant's building, just accountants, right accountants. They went into accounting and accountants building, and they shot up 20 accountants.

And you're an accountant. The next day, you got to show up at your cubicle and go to work like a bunch of accountants. Didn't just get killed in an accountant's building. Yes. Now you expect our kids to go into that situation, but also to expect the teacher to also expect the teacher who is old enough to know what happened is old enough to be extremely scared of this situation.

And so I put myself in those shoes and I know the first thing I would want to do if I was a teacher the very next day, or if I was an accountant and there was all these shootings happening where accountants were dying in massive droves, what am I going to want to do? I'm going to want to protect myself, right?

I'm going to want to do everything I can to put myself out of harm's way. And to be able to defend myself if something like this happens and how do you do that? Because our police showed that even if you're got 20 guys with Bulletproof vests on the area, completely cordoned off in 35 rifles, then maybe you're still not going to go in.

So I need to be able to defend myself. And if I'm a teacher and you tell them. You can't carry a weapon in to defend yourself or your children that you feel responsible for tomorrow. When you go to work the day after a shooting like this happens, that's terrifying. That's like if you're a teacher, the first thing I would want to do, if I was a teacher is to carry in school, is to defend myself as to, I feel responsible for these children.

I feel like, you know, they're they, to spend more time with me as they do with their parents during the school year, why would I not feel responsible for these children? And I want to defend them and how can I do that? If you're going to strip that away from me and not allow me to carry a half of the firepower of somebody who's willing to come in here and commit harm on these children and harm on me, I want to carry a weapon and there should be able to defend myself.

Now, another thing that came from that interview was the fact that teachers in the local school area of the sheriff, I believe was. It might've been, I don't know, some type of law enforcement officer that they were interviewing again on real real news, no bullshit. Um, the individual that they were interviewing said that in 2018, there was legislation passed in their county that allowed for teachers to carry

how different, how different could this situation have turned out. There was one individual in that school who carried, who is near this shooting and was able to immediately respond and do something or even able to defend themselves when this coward walks into their room, intending on doing these children.

And the strip them of that, right? No school's zone sign that says gun-free zone has ever stopped a school. You think some guy who's in this state of mind, that's completely mentally unhealthy and unfit walks up to a school with his AR 15, his assault rifle sees the sign and goes, Aw, shit, can't go in here.

It's a gun-free zone. Not going to shoot these kids. No that's never happened. Ever, ever a gun-free zone sign has yet to have any statistical significance in stopping mass shootings. And it's the sign is just the physical part of it. That means the policies don't work. The policies, the laws that you implement are not going to stop somebody because if they're willing to walk into a school and shoot 19 children, if that's where their mental state.

Do you think, uh, making it difficult for them to purchase a firearm is going to prevent them from doing so, do you think that putting a gun-free zone sign up on your school or not allowing your to, is there ever been a teacher? Has there ever been a teacher that's committed a mass shooting ever point me to one, maybe I'm wrong.

Maybe it's happened. I don't know, but I've never heard of it if it has happened. So you're not going to allow that teacher to defend himself or herself. You're not going to allow them to defend their children that they feel responsible for. And you're going to put a sign out front and say, we got this right there.

Nobody's going to come in here. It's sick. It makes no sense. There's no logical explanation as to why any type of legislation would actually prevent this from happening now, the gun-free zone. Which has shown again, I talked about this on our last episode where we discussed this two episodes ago, where it manifests itself in Chicago and New York and LA, which have the strictest gun laws in the country, but you'll still have the highest murder rates per capita of almost anywhere in the entire world.

So we found that policy legislation doesn't seem to have an effect again, please tell me I'm wrong. Leave a comment, email me, whatever. Tell me I'm wrong. Show me it. Point me to a teacher that's ever went through with a mass shooting on their children. The children they're responsible for show me that.

Tell me I'm wrong. Maybe I am. I don't know, but I've never heard of it. Okay. So that leads us to the next portion of this, which is the idea that, okay, it's a horrific tragedy, right? And again, to highlight what we're going to discuss here, the first one that we just discussed was it's a horrible tragedy.

Everybody did. Which I don't know if I did very non biasly there. Um, but it's, it's difficult for me cause I, I just, it's hard for me to look through the evidence that's been proposed and, and, you know, I have the utmost respect, utmost respect for police officers, the utmost respect for border patrol agents, for anybody who in a daily basis puts themselves in harm's way for the, we are good if humanity, but I have that respect because you put yourself in harm's way for the better of humanity.

Now, if you take that position and there's 17 other men who would have walked in that building and done something, 'cause, you bet your ass. If my daughter's in that school and I'm driving there, you know, what I'm doing is I'm stopping at home. I'm grabbing everything. I need to go in there and I'm walking right past these cops.

And if they try and stop me, I'm going to tell them to shoot me in the. And I'm going to have somebody video recording it so that I can show that you are more likely to shoot the parent who was going to do something because you're being a coward than you were to go in that building and save those children.

And that's what it took. It took one man who decided that enough was enough, because could you imagine standing outside of that school and hearing those sounds

and just having to witness it, just having to sit there, wait on your chain of command. Fuck that. So the individual that did go in there was actually an off duty border patrol agent who did so against the wishes of the police that were there. So had this individual knock on against police orders and knock on in there.

How many more lives would have been. How many more children would not have seen their parents that night.

It's sickening to me that this happened. And they went down the way that it did. So there was documents that came up documents that were released recently that showed in the valley school district that they had active shooter training two months prior, they went over everything that they should have done, nothing, nothing in these documents said that they were supposed to wait outside for 90 minutes, not a single part of the documents.

You know what the documents did say the documents said that you go in there regardless of your own safety. The documents said whether you have. I don't know, 20 people standing outside with rifles, or there's one of you, you go in that building because that's your job. And if you don't want to do it, I completely understand most people are not cut out to walk in that building and do the things that you would need to do to take care of the situation.

I understand completely get it. Very few people are cut out to pull that trigger. Very few people are cut out to open that door against gunfire and go in and do something about this. Very few people are built that way. And if you're not stepped down, find a different job and let another individual who's willing, ready, and able to go in there to stop a situation like this from occurring.

Because if you take on the job of a police officer and you just think you're going to be doing traffic stops all day, you're in for a rude awakening. When you get a call like. You're in the wrong profession.

And again, I'm not knocking anybody who doesn't want to go into a building where there's somebody with a, a rifle shooting at you. I get it. You got kids, you got family, you got a life ahead of you too, but you're in the wrong job.

Now I have some people that are close to me that are pretty big influencers in the police space that I highly respect that has a differing opinion on this. And, um, and I get it and I hope we start hearing some information that's countering this, maybe everything was done. And that would be ideal to me.

Th th it's, it's terrible, terrible that this happened. And it's even more terrible that we get to, we have to sit here and wonder what could have been done, not even why, because why is a hard enough question in itself, but could there have been a different outcome if we had a different.

And that's even more difficult to wrestle with because why is one person, why did he do these things,

but why did the outcome not differ because of these large amounts of individuals, cop cars on cop cars, on cop cars, at least 20 men sitting out there with similar a weaponry as this individual had in there, just sitting out there and you know, where they were facing away from the damn school and you know who they were facing.

The parents, the parents who were screaming and crying and agony, and all they wanted to do is go inside. They were literally saying, I will go inside. I don't even need your weapon. I'm going in there. And they literally put a mom in handcuffs. And the only reason she got out of the handcuffs was because she knew three of the officers.

And they went up to the, whoever was in charge in the area and said, she's fine. She's not going to do anything. And then she tiptoed her way back and jumped a fence and got her damn two children like the bucking bad mama bear that she was to go do this because that's awesome. That's a hero. That's who I want wearing that vest.

That's who I want going in there with an AR that's the person who has the balls to take on that job and know what's at stake when you don't address it properly. And so I do want to read this article about this mom, because I just think that's probably one of the most incredible, incredible stories that I've ever heard.

This woman's screaming and crying and wants to save her children in this school.

She's yelling at these police officers go in there, go in there. Why are you not going in there enough to where these police put her in handcuffs on the ground? Like she's a criminal for wanting to save her child's life.

So here's the article. The article says cops handcuffed mom, amid Texas school shooting before she
