Blame Broward Sheriff, FBI and cowardly cops--not the NRA

The shooting rampage at the Parkland, Florida school is the worst failure of law enforcement in American history as far as I can tell. 

Coral Springs police, who responded to the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting, say several Broward sheriff's deputies waited outside the building while the gunman kept shooting and killing students, rather than doing their job!

In all, 17 people were killed by the mentally deranged 19-year-old whose name will no longer be written herein.

The Broward Sheriff Scott Israel knew about at least one cop who was hidden behind a barrier outside the school while the shooting took place, but instead, Israel blamed the NRA, an organization that wasn't there and aren't responsible for the protection of those students. 

What nonsense.

In fact, in the Texas church shooting, an NRA instructor, who is a civilian, was there and went after the shooter, unlike Scot Peterson and the other deputies who hid outside. 

In fact, it was an AR-15 that saved lives that day.

Peterson was suspended by Scott Israel, not fired, but he resigned in shame.

The Florida Sun-Sentinel reported that according to police sources at least three Broward deputies, including Peterson, waited outside while the killer mowed down people. The Broward Sheriff's Office said Friday that it's investigating the Coral Springs officer's claims, but someone needs to investigate Sheriff Israel, who clearly has a political, rather than a law enforcement agenda.

All the red flags about the shooter were disregarded. The police had arrived at his house about 38 times in the past. A vlogger went to the FBI after the gunman had written on a post of his vlog with his real name, that he wanted to become a professional school shooter. 

Nothing was done.

The shooter had a history of putting a gun to his mother's head and threatening her. He threw chairs at people in school and was eventually expelled for his violent behavior.

Just which red flag were they looking for?

And the knee-jerk reaction is to go political, to call for more gun control laws, as if that would have made a difference. The left now claims that even those with guns [the cops] weren't able to stop a guy with an AR-15.
Scot Peterson
That's because they didn't do their job. Trump nailed it: they are cowards. He was referring only to Peterson when he said it, but I suspect he would agree about the others.

The FBI admitted it failed to investigate warnings about the shooter, but they also failed to apologize for that failure.

A child welfare agency looked into claims about the shooter, but they concluded he wasn't a risk to himself or others.

Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel admitted to the Sun-Sentinel that three Coral Springs officers said one or more sheriff's deputies didn't go into the school, and while he knew that before he went on camera to attack the NRA, he never admitted this until afterward.

I blame Scott Israel for not doing his job and for his vile dishonesty. He called for gun control and attacked the NRA, but would anyone in their right mind give up their guns and expect these incompetent buffoons to protect our kids?

I don't trust Scott Israel. If Peterson hadn't been caught on tape cowering behind a barricade, and the Coral Springs officers making their statement about the other cowardly deputies, I fully believe Israel would not have revealed this happened.

Coral Springs city manager Mike Goodrum, the day after the shooting, confronted Israel about the deputies' failure to respond. Goodrum only said he and Israel had a "heated discussion."

The Coral Springs PD issued a statement late Friday:
"There were countless deputies and officers who responded on that fateful day from multiple jurisdictions, whose actions were nothing short of heroic."
Broward County Sheriff's Department was not among them.
