Texas shooting survivor says gunman told them, ‘You’re all gonna die’ l ABC News

1. 😭😭Dios Padre le ayude a recuperatse de tan horrendo recuerdo

2. Christopher Vanghele offers thought and prayers–tool

3. Where were the macho right-wing men and women gun owners? Cowering behind their saloons, likely. Eating fried chicken and potatoes and wings with their aquanet-sprayed hair and clown makeup.

4. rip to those kids and teachers may that sick "person" rot in hell

5. guarantee that the teacher that left the door opened is related to in some way to either law enforcement or prominent family or politician in that area and that's why they are not cooperating with investigation..mark my words .the cover-up need to be brought public.follow the relationship trail guarantee there's a connection

6. Unless they are unware of lack free will, PARENTS are the ones to blame for decide to bring their kids into existence, into a world where extreme pain, torture, and death is inevitable. Their children have NEVER consented to be here so by bringing them here, the parents are forcing their children to exist, to be in pain, to be tortured, and to die like everyone else all because they want to feel good about themselves. We need to ban people from bringing children into this world.

7. the thing 🥺🥺🥺🥺

8. you know, you can leave out George Stephanopoulos plugging your network at the end of videos with heavy emotional weight like this. It IS an option.

9. He needs to be on counseling. To make sure he deals with everything properly. Make sure nothing goes south

10. My English is not good. This is translated by google. I think it is very unrealistic to try to ban guns. From an objective point of view, the following are some of my thoughts. 1.Add the relevant laws for reporting those obviously weird posts although it is likely to cause other problems. need experts Improve but definitely worth trying.
    2.Bullying has a big impact on mental health and psychology determines behavior, so there should be relevant measures to detect and reduce the probability of bullying, such as “filling out bullying forms anonymously, teachers pay more attention and care about the interaction between students . Increase students' understanding of bullying and moral education courses“ These are simple directions that can be achieved in many ways such as rewards (including crowd praise or bonuses) and punishment (laws can be used).

11. Republicans will watch this with a straight face then tell you gun reform isn't needed. Their right to own a gun is more important than the safety of those children. This is despite the fact that guns don't actually make a household safer. Simply owning a gun increases the mortality rate.

12. Your a handsome courageous young man God Bless You

13. He's on autopilot. Numb. 😥😥😥

14. Pobre bebé, esperemos reciba toda la ayuda psicológica que necesite 🥺🥺🤧

15. My heart and prayers go out to all of those families who have lost there babies in the school shootings in Uvalde Texas they should never have to go through anything like this and I couldn’t believe that one of the reporters asked one of the kids that survived if he wats going back to school after summer vacation what the heck I would never send anyone back to that school ever again it’s an evil place now that school should be closed up for good and a new school built they need that place tear it down my love and hugs to all the families may god give you all the strength to push through all of this

16. Got him all going too die cowboy and Indian child or cops robbers America pay attention this is Texas next door child gamer tech talker tex

17. This wouldn’t of happened if they had more guns.. all the kids should have a gun

18. Is the second amendment untouchable? I do not think so. It is a tool to continue murdering children and adults. The United States needs the same guns control laws that exists in Japan. The second amendment must be defeated in a referendum.

19. Enough of thoughts and prayers. The do-nothing politicians need to prevent further tragedies.

20. Good actor

21. How this tragic happens? Well, answer is your are living in dictatorship government… so called democracy gov is a cover up.. your American government only do what they wanted, not your people ‘s needs or request. That’s why !Virginia Tech event in 2007 … it has been 15 years… how many presidency has been completed all these years ? Both gone through labor , democratic parties… so ??your gov played this game very well .. they put one party support gun control , one party against gun control. What’s a good set up to make sure this gun control law never able to get pass.

22. Children do deserve better. 4500 died due to guns in 2020.
    
    As a person with generally more Republican than democratic leanings, I resent the fact that preventing the death of children and adults by guns is a partisan issue.
    
    ** No politicians should take money from the NRA as a starter. Politics in America needs to change.
    
    The number of deaths in 9-11 was 2996. Gun violence resulted in 45000 deaths in 2020. 10% were children or teens i.e. 4500.Within the numbers for adults, 65% of those gun deaths were the result of suicides, while 30% were from homicides. For teens and kids, those percentages are roughly flipped.

    Restricting guns should not be a partisan issue and is only this because of NRA lobbying and political money given.

    "I heard an NRA person saying that schools should have people trained with guns".
    
    Then they will need checks in case they have sadistic leanings and what happens if someone doesn't show up and those people injure or abuse children.

    "it was the mad person with the gun, not the guns fault."" The reporter correctly said that if the person didn't have the gun.. to which the guy interjected that shootings happen in gun free areas such as church.

    The point was that obviously that if people did not have guns, the tragedy cannot happen. It tackles the root cause.
    
    "The door was left open".
    
    It wasn't the door that killed the children – it was the gun under the control of an 18 year old who just went and bought it with no checks whatsoever.

    There is no need to walk around with an automatic or semi-automatic gun and high capacity magazine. never mind getting one with no background checks.

    "Mental Health"
    
    The US has far more gun deaths than anywhere else and I don’t think this is because they have more mental issues. It is about gun availability and access.

    The unrestricted obtaining of the guns by an 18 year old or anyone is ridiculous.If politicians thought of the children as their own things would be different.

    https://time.com/6170864/cause-of-death-children-guns/

    According to a research letter published recently in the New England Journal of Medicine, firearm-related deaths went up by 13% between 2019 and 2020. However, firearm deaths for people aged 1-19 increased by a massive 30%. In total there were 45,222 deaths as a result of gun violence in 2020, the research letter says. Around 10% of those deaths were children and teens. Within the numbers for adults, 65% of those gun deaths were the result of suicides, while 30% were from homicides. For teens and kids, those percentages are roughly flipped.

    The NRA should not be allowed to fund and corrupt the politicians.
    
    I note that some politicians argue that they agree with pro-life when it comes to abortion and not pro-life of children.So is it that those politicians are happy for the baby to become a child and then ..? I do not think so if it was their child.

    "The NRA argue that it is not the gun, but the person."
    
    Well then can I have hand grenades , missiles and nukes to protect myself.

    "Background checks"
    
    The NRA just said it was the person and not the gun. So background checks are justified.
    
    This boy killer may not have been prevented by background checks but may have been, and may have made people aware of his mindset or put him off getting a gun. He should never had access to a (semi)automatic weapon.
    
    The fact that background checks should occur would prevent people with serious problems from harming themselves or others. Do you need an automatic gun and a high capacity magazine?

    "Bruh you realize we can’t even ban drugs how are we gonna ban guns Lmao"
    
    Most people who use guns recreationally will not be willing to go against the law and illegally order one and get a criminal record which may affect their life and put them in jail. Most people would not want to buy one illegally off the streets.

    "You will make it illegal to own guns"
    
    That is not the aim.
    
    There is no justification for having semi/automatic guns in the community. Never mind the right to hold one. I have been educated as I was told an AR-15 was used and I was silly as I did not know it was semi-automatic.
    
    I did not know it was AR-15 and just heard automatic. The point is that it can fire 46 rounds per minute and kill/injure lots of children/people/policeman very quickly.
    
    https://checkyourfact.com/2018/02/24/fact-check-ar-15-bullets-a-second/ According to the Bushmaster AR-15 manual, the firearm has a maximum effective rate of 45 rounds per minute
    
    https://usarmorment.com/pdf/opmanual.pdf
    
    Can be easily converted to a fully automatic weapon.
    
    Role of AR-15 in mass shootings:

    "Criminals don’t obey the law"

    This boy was not previously a criminal. As the figures indicate in adults a large number of the people commit suicide.
    
    In children, it is homicide that causes the deaths. I have included a reference to mass shootings. Look it up.

    Wikepedia says The motive for mass shootings (which occur in public situations) is a defining feature in that they are usually committed by deeply disgruntled individuals seeking revenge or payback for failures in school, career, romance and life in general and uses the reference
    
    Bjelopera, Jerome P. (March 18, 2013). "Public Mass Shootings in the United States: Selected Implications for Federal Public Health and Safety Policy" (PDF). CRS Report for Congress.

    Note the number of suicides in adults. They are likely not criminals looking to hurt other people.

    By restricting guns it will be harder for the criminals to get hold of guns. Reduced circulation of guns may be done by possible compensation, and a temporary amnesty period for holding certain types of gun, or to time to get a license.

    "They will get guns through the dark web"
    
    Why is death through guns less common in other countries then? They have a dark web also.

    "Guns are needed for protection"
    
    Another argument is that the guns are needed to protect yourself. Literature shows that guns are seldom used for protection.

    "It is my constitutional right"
    
    https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/second_amendment
    
    "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

    The constitution was written in the 1700s. There should not be militia. It mentions arms not guns. Can I please buy some nukes and missiles then?
    
    So, I have been educated. Have you?

    Donald Trump after the school shooting and talking to children said He said the time for change had come and it wasn't going to be just talk. (see https://youtu.be/Je-89pC2YYw 'Fix it!' – Florida shooting survivors meet Donald Trump and urge him to change gun laws). He said their would be action and then changed his mind. He was thinking about votes and money.

    Having had sympathies for Trump when he came to power, I have none now. I thought him having money meant he would not be swayed by lobby groups. I was wrong. He promised children he would do something after the shooting 3-4 years ago. He did not. He received financial support from the NRA in his election campaign – see below.

    Trump did nothing.
    
    He says he is pro-life when it comes to abortion.He is not pro-life of children.
    
    .

    I listened to Abbots re looking at the causes and taking action/not just talk just as Donald Trump did 3-4 years ago. He said he wasn't responsible for rule changes. He went on to dismiss background checks with the reason being that they don't always work. What a jerk.

    Abbot talked about mental health treatment being improved and was clearly already making excuses. Shame on him.

23. "THIS IS CHILD ABUSE!" SHAME ON FASCIST NEWS MEDIA. USE, ABUSE, INDOCTRINATE, BRAINWASH, MOLEST, RAPE OUR CHILDREN. DEMOCRATS' PARTY OF DEATH, MISERY, DOOM.

24. I hope he and his family and his friends and their families someday get an opportunity to emigrate from that shithole country.

25. Deep down there are some cowards in this world…those cops that hesitated, fat, and lazy are guilty as F*. Guilt is a B** when they go home and sleep over it. That's straight facts… real heroes are rare.. those are the ones fighting in Ukraine that are voluntary. Wait till the food crisis hit us…

26. Unless you are a part of a "well regulated militia", you have zero business owning an AR-15. LEOs hate criminals having such firepower, the FOP supports the ban.

27. "You're all gonna die, because the coward cops are outgunned and scared".

28. Really playing this one up🥴🐑. Make sure to ask yourself why they would put this child on national tv talking about what should be a traumatic experience without any regard to his fragile mind🤔 seems low

29. Make it harder to have guns legally or ilegally.

30. Poor baby 🥺 this is so devastated 😭

31. Here's an interesting challenge for you viewers. Search for side-by-side comparison images of those Newtown kids singing at the 2013 superbowl, and then look at the 20 kids victim photos in searchimages. After you get your answer,…I highly doubt that Texas is not what they say happened there.

32. It's interesting to see how many times this happens but nothing ever gets done about it. I read this is the 130+ time a school shooting has happened just in Texas! You would think someone would have come to their senses by now. Bonkers.

33. A kid like this would be a broken and emotional wreck if he actually saw what he was describing here……. I mean seriously this 10 year old kid is describing a massacre that he supposedly almost died in….. You really would have to be an unbelievably naive person blindly trust this piece of news. At the very least people should be open minded to questioning it.

34. Brave soldier , I'm so sorry Americans go through this most likely everyday my condolences from England to loved ones who lost family and friends

35. He will probably go to jail for only 10 years

36. I hope all the survivors get the help they need.
    Whatever that is.

37. That's why you don't bully people they will kill anyone and bullys have no life

38. God bless lil dude

39. I’ve been working as a Dental Hygienist for Public Schools mobile dental program for many years. Yesterday when I was going to the classrooms to get kids for their cleanings, I noticed all of the the doors were locked. I had to knock on every door for the teachers to unlock the door for me before entering the classroom. Great idea to prevent someone from entering a room and opening fire. Although, it seemed sad for the teachers to even have to go to such drastic measures…😔

40. Welcome to the world of Fox News. Thanks Rupert.

41. How brave of this little boy. It’s time for us to reassess what’s going on in America.

42. So ridiculous for unanswered one hour stand by…

43. America: As long as I can keep my guns, you can murder my children!

44. I hope your ears still work gregg abbott are you listening 👂 to these kids ??

45. Amazing,..they are literally selling this fabricated event even harder than they did for fabricated Shady Hyuk in Newtown. The Uvalde P. D. literally HOSTED ACTIVESH00TER TRAINING just two months ago at the local high school to prepare for this week's scheduled exercise at Robb Elemetary. So, the real question is,..who dies in a scheduled drill?

46. Coward Texas Police, could not even save those innocent children. Your job is to serve and protect and you couldn't even do that. I prey they all get punished for this but it would not bring these beautiful children back. May your soul rest in piece 🙏
