Just pointing to you that while your sources might be telling you that "nothing is going on," there is a whole lot might be going on on the front lines.
the way I see it, this is probably Russia's best chance for a victory claim and save face withdrawal if they can get complete control of the Donbas region..even then they will have to get Z to go along with it and he already said he would not..after this week or so, the tide will slowly turn I think to Ukraine's favor..
And that's the catch 22.
Same kind of dilemma, the knot as it was with Donbass BEFORE February 24th.
The NY Post reports that a mother had to run into the school to rescue her two children since law enforcement were standing around with their thumbs up their butts. (Last pat was me editorializing, of course) She said she was originally handcuffed by US Marshalls, but convinced local police whom she knew to tell the Marshalls to uncuff her. That's when she says she made her way into the school.
Before she did this, she had driven 40 miles to the school after learning something was happening there to find the lack of response by law enforcement.
Good for her. The cops should have stormed the building in multiple directions. The shooter can't shoot but in one direction at a time. They may have likely got his attention such that he might try to escape the cops and be occupied with their assault over the kids. He may have shot himself or been killed sooner. If he was bent on not being captured alive he may have charged the cops = dead. The shooter had nothing to alter his attention for way too long.
Uvalde--Parents being swabbed for DNA because they cannot ID the dead children
Sounds unbelievable--horrifying even, but parents reportedly are being swabbed for DNA to identify bodies of the children, so badly were they shot up by the good for nothing gunman. This story is 4 days old and I haven't heard a word about it. If this was reported earlier I apologize.
I wouldn't be surprised if one of those parents 'Shoots a few of those Sheriffs right between the eyes~' _____ Reports are now that Sheriff waiting up to 1hr and 20 mins, to act. I don't think the Sheriff acted at all...i believe it was 'Border Patrol' who had the Nuts to go after 1 gunman....Jaysus....
Conservatives: "mental health! This is a mental health issue!"
Me: so should an 18-year old kid that's still in high school, who has mental health issues, be able to walk into a store and buy an AR-15 that easily?
Conservatives: *crickets*
Because the Republicans have no sensible, realistic answer to that question.
I'm not even talking massive, sweeping changes to gun laws. I'm talking small but meaningful changes, like simply raising the age to buy a rifle from 18 to 21. Most conservative gun nuts are even against that

And young peoples decision making is considered so poor, there’s rules against renting a car, a hotel room, or buying a drink.

I wonder what percentage of people are against that. I’m for raising the age to legally purchase.
