Texas’s response to school shootings was as predictable as it was doomed to produce only more violence in schools — violence by cops.
texas pigs bleed like any other
But they squeal so much louder.
Not surprised. Nothing gets a cop more rock hard than being able to bully somebody weaker than them.
There are horrific details. Kids are routinely slammed to the ground for minor misbehavior. Police punch children in the face. They shock students with Tasers for being in the wrong place. Or point guns at unarmed teens. Cops put handcuffs on a 6-year-old who later cried to his father, “The police wants me to die!” In some cases, low-level disciplinary infractions that should lead to no more than a trip to the principal’s office left children facing criminal charges; the well-documented school-to-prison pipeline in all its ignominy.
Gotta keep those private prisons stocked full future

I’m shocked! Well not really shocked.
Because the police were so fucking helpful during Uvalde.
…to the surprise of nobody
The real reason they are in schools, not to protect but rather get kids used to their authority.
Nah, I think the purpose of the school to prison pipeline is to keep a percent of black people enslaved for corporations
I really want to some day see these fuckers pay for their crimes
