 “First responders must put themselves between the shooter and the victims as quickly as possible.”

For #Newstodon Friday, we'd like to highlight Correspondent Jason Buch's report on the continued avoidance of a real public hearing on the many questions that still remain about the botched response to the #Uvalde school shooting:

 @ba07ee6f Unless they are police wearing body armor, they themselves armed and supposedly trained and are members of Uvalde Police Dept, which is not a real police department, but rather a show dog for the corrupt mayor and governor. Essentially.  

DO NOT LET UVALDE BE FORGOTTEN. Stop letting Republicans hold up children as human shields for their corruption. The sacrifice is a disgrace.

 @ba07ee6f
How about mitigating the actual problem so that no one has to think about putting themselves in the way of the shooter???
