The gunman, an 18-year-old from the small city, is also dead, authorities said.

“He shot and killed, horrifically, incomprehensibly, 14 students, and killed a teacher,” Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said in a press conference, hours after the Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District reported an active shooter at Robb Elementary School. The suspected gunman entered the elementary school about 11:30 a.m. Tuesday with a handgun and possibly a rifle, and is believed to have been killed by law enforcement officers who responded to the scene, Abbott said.

Well why don’t we get started protecting those past the third trimester then? Because it doesn’t look like we really believe all lives matter. It looks like we believe all guns matter.

Please, EVERYONE take a StopTheBleed class.

I don't care about it

When I saw this news, my apple13 suddenly turned to black screen, it popped up a message asking me to watch Rambo, Spider man, Captain America, Iron man movies for 10 times. Where are the heroes. Why don't come save the kids.

A Hispanic transexual just killed a bunch of children. I am very curious to see what the establishment response to this will be. I suspect it will be out of the news by the end of the week because it does not fit the narrative.

This is BEYOND BEYOND SICK & TWISTED!Something NEEDS TO BE DONE & NOW!We can't Continue to Allow this type of stuff to happen it's Literally killing Our Country Piece by Piece!Ppl are losing loved 1's at EXTREMELY FAST PACES & for WHAT?Are So Called Politicians NEED TO STANDUP!!

Here's what we know also, that there are many people that have a collection of guns smh

Make sure to include the shooter was trans and mentally ill.

Gun reform now.

Time to do home schooling in neighborhoods and online instruction til they figure out how to run secure s schools 🏫

The shooter was just defending his 2nd amendment rights. ~ GOP

We know a 18 year old boy was able to buy machine guns. Sick USA

We know Republicans won't do a damn thing to stop the next slaughter of school children.

I think you can safely drop the 'suspected shooting' from the cutline on the photo of the kid getting on a schoolbus amid law enforcement.

This tragedy should remind us that criminals and those that wish to do evil do not adhere to the rules and laws of a functioning society. The gun was brought into a gun free zone and the weapon was likely acquired illegally.

lets keep teaching kids to solve problems with guns and play with guns then blame the gun instead of the recreational media companies and the adults that embrace recreational assassination as screen play virtualimmersion drowns holistic development(2015)

Learn from England

Time to pass stringent murder laws.

It's time for President Biden to sign an Executive Order that creates the national Federal School Marshals Program. Every public school will be staffed by a pair of highly trained specialist Marshals that will guard all of our nation's public schools from future gun attacks.

Stop continuing to make schools soft targets schools need armed police security or staff....a sign that say defensless inside is not a deterrent to the homicidal pieces of shit

Biden better manage your own country war.

So disgusting

'Lord, have mercy!' 🥺 🥺 14 students 👨🏽‍🎓👩🏽‍🎓👨🏻‍🎓👩🏻‍🎓 and one teacher 🧑‍🏫 have been killed in a mass shooting at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas. The gunman, an 18-year-old from the small city, is also dead, authorities said. I will pray on it 🙏🏽 and allow God to strengthen me!

This is not politics, it’s a moral issue. Kids learn life has no value.

If only Texans owned more guns… 😞

America's biggest enemy is also a very good friend of the American law, his name is Mr Gun.

Stricter gun laws would have prevented this. GunControl GunViolence

With all this 'gun control” talk, haven't heard any Democrat or Joe Biden say how they plan to take guns from criminals. There were 41 mass shootings during the eight year Obama-BIDEN administration and THEY didn't fix the problem, why?

Gun terrorism is a micro war! POTUS must act now to fight thos war!!! NOW!! 14 CHILDREN ARE DEAD! DAMN WAKE UP!!!!!!!!

do we need those guys? i dont think so. they cant handle their anger tbh. i feel bad.

We know more coverage will cause this to happen again

That it shouldn't have happened.

He who kill by gun will also die by gun. May the innocent souls taken untimely Rest in perfect peace..my sincerest condolences to thier families and loved ones

Please hug your kids and tell them you love them

the 2nd Amendment’s vagueness allows you to support that right while also being open to gun law reform: there is nothing in that vague one sentence that suggests this is a contradiction- and don’t let Right Wing America’s arbitrary interpretation of the 2A convince you otherwise.

By 'here's what we know' time really means to say 'we don't know anything, but we will reword the same generic information that has circulated the last 5 hours to keep out news rank high so we can collect the ad revenue, while deciving our readers we have any new relevant info.'

This shooting might be a staged government coup to try to get rid of guns tbh. Biden will do anything to get rid of civilians guns to get more power over them

Thread on Sandy Hook, and the suicide of Jeremy Richman:

Weird the race of shooter isn't making Its rounds this time? Disingenuous 🗑

We know the lack of gun laws made this a whole lot easier to do.

damn.

All the money we’re sending to other countries could of paid for a lot of armed officers at schools.

Human beings are inherently unstable, highly emotional creatures. Giving them an unchecked supply of guns is utter madness. Thousands of years of human history proves that curing mental illness is not a viable solution. Taking guns out of people's hands is. NoGunsNoGunViolence

I don't think thoughts and prayers are helping...

If they’re white it’s called “mental health issues 😢”

Can we please use this picture with credit?

Texas is lost to the rest of the world

Blast their fucking photo like you do black criminals

aluluc_ 😥😥

Buckleup36 The gunman’s grandmother was also shot dead by him.

America's reluctance to move beyond its antiquated cowboy laws was a self-fulfilling prophecy. Weird they don't have same energy for still travelling via horse and wagon though

We all want this to stop, so how about a real answer? Why not put security at every school? We can protect planes at airports, why can't we do the same with schools? Or we could just keep trying to prevent law-abiding citizens from having guns to stop garbage like this guy.

I'll bet the men who enable this kind of insanity sent their kids to private schools with full security. They don't send their kids off to school in fear everyday. Nothing will change b/c it will never effect them. Pro life my ass, these people are pro DEATH.

Im assuming The shooter must NOT be white..since cops killed him... If he were melanin challenged.. cops would have pat him on the back gently taking him to a burger king.. uvaldetx Texas Buffalo Robbelementary
