#ABCNLUpdate #uvalde
Praying for all these families; may they find strength, grace, and hope.
Sighhh
POS cops.
Who would send their kids back to that school
Uvalde should’ve pulled a Sandy Hook and destroyed the current school and move the location elsewhere.
They purposely did that so that the teachers, students, parents and community wouldn’t have triggers/PTSD from being forced to see/attending that location after all the loss of life and investigations took place.
Police lined the schools, but in reality the prescience is a facade of security. Cardboard cutouts of protection. What a joke.
Gregg Abbot and his cronies have put more time and energy into tormenting LGBTQ+ students and their families, banning books, and harassing teachers, than they have into keeping Texans safe from gun violence.

Make sure you're registered to vote (while you still have the right to vote), and vote like our democracy depends on it – because it does!
I thought they shut the school down?
The thing is did they replace the law inforcement half of those men doing deserve that badge!!!!
Close the school completely down. This is isn't good for the mental state of teachers and stupid. America is a mess.
Praying for those kids and staff. Heartbreaking. Hope they have a good year. So hard to send our kids to school fearing this will ever happen.
Why would you have those kids go back to that place?
hell nah….traumatizing. i wouldn't let my child go back
Honestly those police should have said “if we get fired for moving in now I’d rather die trying to save those children when they needed us the mostâ€ÂÂ
Why are these children returning to school period?! I don't understand it… -These kids need to spend their time healing & recovering from the trauma, not putting themselves back into the system & reliance that failed them…
Thoughts are prayers really don’t do anything
I literally just saw this and immediately began to think of “Stole†by Kelly Rowland
Wowwwwwwwww…..my kids would NEVER go back there
My heart goes out to all these children. I still want justice. Only firing one officer after this disgusting act is NOT ENOUGH.
I don’t understand how those kids can even walk back in there💆or how the parents can send them.. the anxiety they must feel is heartbreaking. Those families deserve a brand new school
I thought they were going to tear the school down?
My gosh, those murals are stunning!
I can’t image what they have gone through god bless them all. 😇ðŸ™ÂÂðŸÂ¾
It should not take children and teachers to die for the place to start coming out and supporting but I get it. I pray things like this stop happening
I thought the kids wouldn't have to go back in that school again i love the murals Rip children ðŸ’â€Â
I think what’s so horrible is how they have to go back to school in the exact same building that those poor 21 other kids got gunned down in cold blood, and what’s also ridiculous is how politicians are so self centered and racist that they won’t change gun laws for absolutely anybody for any event. For example those kids at sandy gook were literally some of the whitest kids in the country but did politicians do absolutely anything about it? NO! So if they’re super racist but won’t even help the people in the same group they’re trying to promote, that’s when you know it’s bad.
I could never drive by that murial everyday if that was my daughter. That would be too painful for me.
Oh god..
I’m a minute in on the train almost sobbing I will watch the rest later . This should’ve never happened ever to any child or parent. May god cover your families in grace healing so much love . I’m so sorry.
They sent deceased kids to school?
The same “law enforcement†that took 77 minutes to take the gunman down?
… how is that supposed to be comforting?
ðŸ’â€ÂðŸ’â€ÂðŸ’â€Â
Kids, if there is an emergency at the school, do NOT call 911…they will not help you! ðŸ˜â€Â
My heart ðŸ’â€Â
Yeah maybe not open the school yet, or broadcast it’s opening. It’s way too soon and I would never send my child back to that district. They really feel safe with that police response? Wow. Not it.
this is sad and all. but these aren't going to stop.
Send billions to Ukraine but no security funding for our children
Honestly I wouldn’t trust my kids to go back in that district at all and all those police officers involved should all be fired I won’t trust my fucking life with that county anymore
This report feels like they want us to sweep this tragic event under the rug without any major changes or reform. There was almost no accountability for how this was handled. Positivity is nice, but it erodes people's desire for change. A nice football game does not mean this community has healed.
My kid's been back at school for almost a month now, wth.
I pray 🤲 God will be with them!!!!! â¤ï¸ÂÂ
We need to raise the age to buy a gun to 21 and increase stronger background checks so this never happens again
It’s disgusting that they have to go back to that school
