Thanks for listening. This is out of Texas. Uvalde father gets promptly arrested.
Where was this level of police action on that fateful day?
Cowering in the parking lot
Watching YouTube videos
With their little Punisher logos as wallpapers as they cowered
Watching a tutorial video by some Indian guy called "how to police, the basics".
Tosses in 48 spices and dips it into a vat of stagnant liquid before serving
Still tackling parents
In the hallway on their phones
Wow... just wow. Uvalde finds new ways to sink lower and lower.
This goes all the way to Austin. There’s a lot to sweep under the rug, and a lot of asses to cover.
I find it funny that even after this globally known bumblefuck of a police operation, they're still trying to make themselves not look too bad. Like dude. There is literally no way to accomplish that. Just cave and admit you guys suck.
Texas has blown goats for a good long while
At least the goats are happy
Goats have redeeming qualities. Unlike the Uvalde police force.
Oh we know. We are well aware.
This is pretty much standard for Republicans. When a very young girl gets raped and has an abortion, they are more concerned about jailing the doctor who provided the abortion than they are the rapist.
I think if anyone has the right to yell fuck, it's the parents in Uvalde. I mean, what the fuck...
I'd also like to point out that the parents were more than willing to jump into the fray to try to save their children (because the cops were too busy combating school floor tiles), and got denied by force.
They'll put in the effort to stop the parents, but not the shooter.
I know someone who did, and the amount of shit she’s had to deal with since then is unreal. Retaliation, intimidation, smear campaigns, all because her actions made them look bad.
Good for her! Her children are alive because of her disobedience!
Pretty on brand for them. Next time theres a school shooting in uvalde, lets just not call these walking vaginas with badges its not like they did anything helpful the first time.
“Vigilantism is illegal.”
“I counter that it is the duty of just men to ignore unjust laws. Particularly so when my child is going to be killed because the people sworn to protect them are cowering behind their cars.”
"next time theres a school shooting in Uvalde" - wow. Like that shouldn't be a thing right?
Scary how easily it just rolls off the tongue.
Vaginas are amazing, let’s not compare them to these moldy socks.
It was those with vaginas that stepped in to save their children. If more of those badges were worn by vaginas I bet there would have been less standing around doing nothing!
I get the sentiment but "walking vaginas" is a vile thing to say when trying to describe being weak and scared. Vaginas are strong AF.
A mom was one of the parents who said ACAB and got her kids out alive from Uvalde.
I think you should describe them as cowards. Words are important and vaginas are much stronger than the Uvalde Police.
Because at the end of it all the Uvalde cops are stupid frightened bullies who ended up getting kids killed. Fuck the Uvalde police, they belong in a ditch filled with poop and pee.
Patents didn’t have a gun so those pussies knew they could take them on.
I don’t ever use that word but if you are a cop and literal kids lives are in danger and you sit and wait for them all to be killed you’re a fucking pussy and you should quit your job. I’m legitimately amazed these cops could even show their faces in that town.
But no let’s get more guns in the country cause all these good guys will stop the bad guys!
It’s a fair word to use, that job isn’t for everyone especially pussies
They'll put in the effort to stop the parents, but not the shooter.
And, as evidenced by this meeting, they still are.
Did anyone see that video from the mega church in Texas? That cop hid in the corner saying he was cornered. Meanwhile, ATF was shooting at her like he was playing like a kid. Bullets ricocheted off the wall; and it still didn’t deter him from advancing. What happened to Texas Cops? They have come a long way since being bad ass rangers. Even at the end of that video, I even think a cop was trying to talk to the shooter and ask if she was OK, lmao!!
But think of the children
I thought that was covered under "freedom of speech"? Or does that not apply in court, and so he was held in contempt? I thought it would.. Should? 🙄
Not sure on the laws in Texas, but this looks like a city council meeting. The councilors could deem it disorderly and have the person removed from the chamber, but an arrest would could be considered a violation of his civil rights by a court, but I’m not a lawyer so this is not legal advice nor should it be construed as such.
They did, but it violated his Constitutional Right to redress his gov and that's not talking about the Free Speech violations... Their "policy's" aren't laws nor do they supercede rights. They just got their feelings hurt.
He has a very winnable Federal Civil Rights case against them.
his Constitutional Right to redress his gov
It's a Constitutional right to petition the government for a redress of grievances. If there were a right to redress the government, we would get an unfortunate eyeful of the elders at that meeting.
But it's not a violation of the First Amendment to establish restrictions on the time, place, and manner of petitioning the government. A city meeting can have rules of decorum that, if violated, authorize your removal without violating your rights.
I'm a civil rights attorney. They should have let him speak. It was cowardly to hide behind "decorum" to silence what he was saying. But it was, unfortunately, not an illegal violation of his rights.
The city council has police protecting them. They don't give a shit about laws or constitution.
Protected by Ulvade police.
The council are braver than they have right to be
Uvalde Council protected by police
Uvalde school children not protected by police.
Well those cops saw an unarmed man, so they had to take there change to try and look like they had balls.
I hate the people who will speak out against gun control and safety citing their freedom of speech and then arrest someone who said one wear word.
How many people were killed by four letter words, just in 2023? We don't even have any data for that. It could be billions. Better safe than sorry.
I just lost my fiance because she watched the video next to me. The word took her out instantly 😞 nothing I could have done to save her I did wait 77 mins before I acted though. /S
If anyone has the rights to arrest him, it's NOT the Uvalde police department.
Every American does. See Cohen v. California.
I can't think of a more disgusting failure of duty. Every cop involved in uvalde should be facing far serious charges than simply losing their jobs. They were complicit in the shocking loss of child life.
They should be in jail. They are accessories to a dozen murders.
The Supreme Court has ruled cops have no duty to try and stop a crime.
Then you'll see the same cops bragging how they did their duty by violently arresting a black teen for having a leftover roach between their car seat. They'll gladly stop those "crimes" but stopping an active shooter in a school is suddenly outside their realm of responsibility.
Here is what I am curious about. If cops have no duty to try and stop a crime when if someone says they are going to punch a Supreme Court Justice really hard in the face and the police heard that, would the police officer have any duty to stop it?
They didn’t even wait nearly an hour to do it as seems to be their customary response time.
Yup, I was installing a heatpump at a house across from my hometown high school, PA system announced a lockdown gun threat. The Cops arrived 2 minutes after the call and entered the building another minute later. I’m in a small town of like 20k in Canada. Insane how fucking slow those losers were.
Hahahahah right 🤣
Apparently the officials in Uvalde are so cowardly that they can't handle the word fuck. This isn't a surprise given their record of demonstrated cowardice.
Jump to action to apprehend a bad language word
won't lift a finger to save literal children from being shot, despite being armed to the teeth
Don't worry. They prevented the real good guys from entering the building to protect their children.
Honestly paying taxes for cops is bs. Have they ever done anything besides ticket and harass people?
Have they ever done anything besides ticket and harass people?
Once in awhile they shoot an unarmed person, so there's that at least
Don't forget deliberately inciting riots at otherwise peaceful protests, they throw that in for free
And killing dogs
Momma always told me cops was like a box of chocolates. They'll kill your dog
Good thing he didn't have a gun or the Uvalde police would have been too scared to arrest him for saying fuck, and would have had to stand around and try and decide who should rush in and arrest him...
they arrested him for his public criticism.
Him swearing was the legitimisation... but it wasn't why they took action.
Has to be so since the woman said “fuck” immediately after him in the same room and no one batted an eye.
You have a right to criticize whatever you want.
LoL since when have cops cared about a person's "rights"?
Want to know how the Uvalde citizens voted recently?
Cowards. Bullies with badges.
Name and shame. Genuinely fucking disgusting.
It's the Uvalde city council, look it up
Obscenity laws are inherently unconstitutional. I hope he files a lawsuit against the city. Its a slam dunk win.
Suing and getting rid of the police standing idly by as his child was murdered should've been a slamdunk win, too.
time to abolish that qualified immunity just like New Mexico.
Put me on that jury
We train young men to drop fire on people, but their commanders won’t allow them to write “fuck” on their airplanes because “its obscene”.
Exactly ‼️🔥🔥 It’s fucking bananas
It’s fucking bananas
This one, Officer.
If you don't spend any time thinking about it, it doesn't seem sensible but in reality it is a very important part of controlling the people that have their fingers on the guns.
You misspelled fascist hypocrisy
Where you from Willard?
We just dick stamped the bombs, or wrote sweet little messages: With love, the Marines.
Reminds me of George Carlin talking about prostitution.
Edit - spelling
I get your point but also I prefer my large groups of young men with powerful weapons to be as disciplined and professional as possible.
Which is exactly why they got strict about the tattoo policy, or at least can't make up their minds about it because everyone knows you can't fight a war if you swear or have tattoos.
Uvalde: “Children are being mowed down”. Cops:”We need 45 minutes to strategize” Meeting: “Grieving father used a naughty word”. Cops, 2 seconds later “We’re on it!”
The Taliban would be proud
The taliban would be envious.
Gonna go write fuck on their town sign
That mayor is a pussy. I was a cop for 7 years, 4 as SWAT- everything thing about this case, start to now- pisses me off.
Fuck all them who stood and waited. You go in.
You should read the DOJ report. Well, I mean, no one should read it. I had to read it for work.
But it’s such a clown car of cascading error and fuckery and yeah, I drank a lot that week
Sorry you had to see all that. Cheers, my friend.
Can you give the cliffnotes version?
I’d rather not. You can find it here from the official source. There is an executive summary that will provide the cliff notes you’re looking for.
In this thread, and in many public discussions, there’s a lot of bad takes. The report is extremely thorough, and is very clear about the level of certainty for each point it puts forth.
I appreciate it! There's so many emotionally charged feelings, whitewashing, etc behind this that it's hard to cut straight through to the raw facts of what happened.
I think it was PBS News that did a really good documentary on the day and the events after, and it was just a complete clusterfuck. I don’t know why protocols weren’t in place for any of the big boys who showed up to immediately have control of the scene. That simple “who’s in charge” cost these kids their lives.
Since Columbine, the guidance has been to go in.
The Navy Yard shooting response proved people with different skills and training levels could work together, but needed to be on the same page.
https://www.alerrt.org/ is the system I was exposed to aside from the SWAT stuff.
In an active shooting, rounds stop going, esp with children, you go in. You might be the only one, but you go in.
dumbass Chief in Uvalde didn’t even have his own radio that day.
land of the free, obviously.
And home of the brave police.
The ones that are always scared for their lives? You know, the language that allows them to legally murder someone.
They will open fire on unarmed people because they "fear for their lives," but they won't open fire on someone who is actually armed because they "fear for their lives"
Cops here are bullies. Firemen are the real heroes of this world.
America!
Land of the free!
Free to the power of the people in uniform!
Up the punks! Didn’t expect to see a TSOL reference today.
Please make this front page news. Please.
If only the shooter at Ulvade yelled ‘Fuck’ while in the school. Cop’s would have been all over his swearing ass.
Right, or if he had committed the horrible crime of bringing in a rainbow flag and forcing the kids to look at it. Texas would have removed him promptly, but no, instead he brought with him one of their beloved and sacred ar15's.
Yes! I knew UVALDE was full of shit. The sheer stupidity of the whole police department of that city needs to studied in a lab.
They were there to promptly arrest a man obviously distraught over losing a loved one. But they stood around when the REAL perpetrator committed the most heinous atrocious crime that one human can commit to another. And that's why people are getting tired of LAW ENFORCEMENT.
Any more outbursts from you against our heroic first responders and you will be put in jail
Fuck that piece of shit, indeed.
Is this the higher free speech that I apparently don't have in my country. Can't remember the last time I was arrested for saying swear words.
The higher free speech rights don't prevent the government from abusing their power. It just makes it illegal when they do.
Saying fuck is protected first amendment free speech and is not only the natural way to read the bill of rights but also easily supported by case law.
Unfortunately having the law on your side doesn't help much in the moment but these charges will be dropped and he will have a civil rights claim against the police and the government for they illegal actions.
Exactly
You'd think this kind of abject fuckery would only happen in the UK, but here we are.
Cannot believe a parent would say “fuck” when discussing how their kindergarten aged child was brutally murmured while hundreds of cops stood in the hallway listening to the gunshots. The nerve of that parent!
/s just in case.
“Sir, watch your language”
“My child is fucking dead!”
When I heard him say that, my heart broke for him.
When those people heard him say that, they fucking arrested him. They are devoid of ANY empathy.
Seems like they’re trying to decrease their response time averages by arresting him so quickly.
Uvalde can fuck themselves.
They sure got the cuffs on him fast.... too bad they couldn't get the cuffs on the kid that was MURDERING CHILDREN that fast! Pussies
All.of those cops are bitchs at Uvalde for not going in. No order or reason would change my mind, you just react to safe life. They just camp out..crazy
I see the police finally decided to do some work.
Fuck Uvalde's entire city government, from the ground up.
I smell a 1st Amendment lawsuit coming.
what a bunch of little snowflakes... wow
Are those some of these snowflakes everybody talking about?
What the FUCK was the arrest for, is it illegal to say FUCK to the police who are FUCKING responsible for the unfathomable deaths of children?
Free speech and all that amiright folks
So that was the issue all along, the dying kids did not say fuck or the police would've been there in a jiffy.
Just more evidence that the entire state of Texas is made of spare parts. Bunch of pearl clutching queens in 5 gallon hats pretending they're tough.
Agreed 🫶
I guess he used words that make them cry.
It seems like Texas law enforcement are a pathetic excuse for justice, only outdone by their politicians. Don’t mess with Texas! If you say a rude word they will take faster action than if you are killing their children.
Everyone of them police officers that showed up at Uvalde should be arrested for fraud. They should be pro, tried and prosecuted, because when they took an oath of office to a pull their constitution our constitution well they didn’t do it did they? They just didn’t do it, so they committed fraud when they took their out of office, just like this mayor committed fraud when he had this man arrested he took this man’s right away. Oh wait his first amendment does that not mean anything well, you know what I hope the man Susan Fedley and wins millions of dollars from this clown show.
I hope all those old fogies fall down a few flights of stairs
Being arrested for exercising your first amendment right? Wow. Just wow.
Mariano Pargas - Chief of Police for Uvalde when the shooting occurred
William Mitchell - County judge, seen here illegally arresting a man
https://www.txdirectory.com/online/person/?id=16605
Apparently ol Billy hates the F word
the police is only there to protect the corrupt political class
No freedom of speech in freedom lovin Texas anymore?
Let’s all keep him in our prayers. That’s how this works right?
And thoughts....don't forget the thoughts.
Wow where were these cops during the fucking Uvalde incident?
Considering their very prompt response over something as trivial as profanity, this man's chld wouldn't be fucking dead if they were there.
Oh right, it's just cowards protecting oligarchs. They don't give a fuck about civilians
His first mistake was being poor, his second was not being on that city council.
Remember kids the rules only matter if you’re super rich and making them for everyone else.
/s in case it wasn’t obvious
So ... If the shooter was yelling f bombs the police would have done something faster?!
But I thought Texas was such a great state?
Texas: The land of big men, driving big trucks, wielding big guns, but wilt like a flower when faced with someone brown or when they hear a bad word...
Remember kids: The Lone Star is just a rating out of five.
Barbaric. More interested in protecting guns than children.
"Freest country in the world."
What happened to the right to free speech?
Freedom of speech on governments grounds that citizens pay for?
This world is fucked completely
if only they had been that prompt at the fuckin school.
The cops are scared of their own shadows, and this judge is scared of …potty words ? Uvalde needs an enema
The good people of texas have their priorities straight! Make sure murderers have all the access to guns they want. Make sure you punish people that speak out.
I try not to think about Uvalde too much, because if I do, it always takes me back to the realization that the people in charge are evil and anyone can be a victim to their crimes.
Happened once in Sandy Hook. Not only did we not do anything about it. We let it happen again and again. And again and again and again. To children.
All these parents want if for Texas and Uvalde to admit that things fell apart on scene. That it was a logistical clusterfuck. They want them to own up to it, so that it can be fixed and never happen again. That is not too much to ask, but the City of Uvalde and The State of Texas don’t have the decency.
Only thing those cops are capable of arresting a non violent person. And they actively let children die. U.S.A #1
Fucking pigs
Well now, I can take listening to horror stories of children being murdered, but that foul language just burns my ears 🤡
Arrested literally for speech, directly by the government. That is a violation of the first amendment, which is obviously less protected than the second amendment.
What happened to freedom of speech? 😒
This is legit how you create terrorists. What does that man have to lose? He lost everything and you’re denying him any kind of closure or justice.
Dude that sherif should be tried and face capitol punishment. I’m a full on police supporter. I served in the Air Force and I appreciate them for everything they have to do and put up with… that guy sat outside afraid. As a cop your job is to be in danger when it’s necessary. That doesn’t me walk up to a guy with a knife and have a chat while he butchers you. But it does mean when there a gunman in a room full of kids you don’t sit outside with your dick in your hand and “wait for back up.” That’s when you put yourself in danger
A bunch of fragile, senile, dusty old men. With their kids long out of the school, grand kids enrolled in expensive exclusive private school. They could care less about children
He should’ve shot and killed children. The cops would have been scared of him.
You really can't be serious.
Russia, USA
IF only someone at the school in Uvalde yelled "fuck", maybe the police would have given a damn. Fucking state funded domestic terrorists is all they are.
Notice it didn't take them 77 minutes to arrest me.
I hope this guy gets compensated for this somehow. Fuck Uvalde's fucking fucked-up police and the fuckhead who had him arrested.
Wipe that counsel of the face of the FUCKING map! All of them are worthless!
I am surprised more people haven’t taken on the role of vigilante.
So the Uvalde police will do their job when it’s an innocent victim expressing his feelings but won’t do it when there’s actual lives at stake. Good to know. Cunts.
We need less school shootings and more government buildings shot up, only way they’ll listen
WHY IS THE REST OF THAT ROOM NOT LOSING IT SHIT TO DEFEND THAT FATHER AFTER THE UTTER INCOMPETENTLY FAILURE OF THE POLICE FORCE DURING THAT INCIDENT?
He was ABSOLUTELY right to not want to be left alone in that elevator with them.
If I was there I'd try to get the crowd to chant "fuck, fuck, fuck" in solidarity
Ahhh this must be the free speech some Americans tell me I don’t have.
My littler law experience tells me this falls under disorderly conduct maybe even contempt (even tho this looks like a hearing). But unfortunately it’s the judges courtroom so he can do what he wants regardless of free speech.
Swearing at government officials is unequivocally protected speech, and this isn't a courtroom. He was speaking at a public speaking period during some sort of council meeting.
Your law experience is pretty bad.
After the school shooting, the county STILL voted Republican for the gun happy governor. And parents who lost their children in the school shooting are not allowed to show honest emotional anger with any cuss words. The panel could have cut this father some slack and empathy. Instead they enforced the bend the knee to us or else policy.
Fucking disgusting… yet Texans will continue voting for pieces of shit like Abbott.
So much freedom, in the free-est state!
1st amendment party when you say fuck
Texas is a "shithole country".
Fuck Texas.
Worthless state
Let's say it together.. "FUCK TEXAS!".
Quit voting Republican. It's as simple as that
BUT DRAG QUEENS!
/s
Looking at footage from America now is crazy. Growing up I thought America was the land of the free, greatest country on earth.
Place is fucking backwards and brainwashed. Land of the free my arse.
