“Do Something”: Crowd As Biden Visits US School Massacre Town

Uvalde: The request for despair to stop for the massacre of weapons that disturbed the United States rang on Sunday during President Joe Biden’s visit to Uvalde, where he prayed for 19 children and two teachers killed by an armed man in the small town of Texas.
“Do something!” Lined screaming from the crowd on the road when Biden left the Church of the Holy Heart where he attended Mass with a relative who mourned.

We will. We will,” Biden responded to the crowd, before heading to a private meeting with the relatives of the dead and with the first respondent.

Biden, accompanied by his wife, Jill Biden, was in Uvalde in less than two weeks after traveling to another mass shooting location – this time targeting Africans -America in racist attacks – in Buffalo, New York.

The first couple began by visiting the Emergency Temple at Robb Elementary School, where last Tuesday the armed man walked with semi-automatic type AR-15 and started his massacre.

Both of them wore black, Bidens holding hands in front of the warning, walking slowly along the bush of a bouquet of flowers, bouquets, white cross and photos that were blown away from children killed.

Biden, whose son Beau died seven years ago on Monday due to cancer, and the first wife and daughter died in a car accident, making a sign of the cross, seemed to wipe tears.

The arrival of the Biden car procession at the school was greeted with applause from the crowd. However, describing the tension in the city, there was a mockery of the appearance of the Governor of Texas of the Republic of Greg Abbott, who strongly opposed new restrictions on weapons possession.

We need a change,” shouted one person.

Our hearts were destroyed,” said Archbishop Gustavo Garcia-Siller in the church.

Biden was not scheduled to speak openly in Texas, but on Saturday he renewed his unreshemous call to the congress to overcome many years of paralysis to strengthen the regulations of firearms-especially for weapons such as AR-15.

We cannot forbid tragedies, I know, but we can make America safer,” Biden said.

– The Department of Justice Investigates the Police –

A terrible account emerged from the trials faced by the survivors of the attack on Tuesday, where the behavior of the police was under severe supervision.

Samuel Salinas who was ten years old was sitting in fourth grade when the shooter, who was later identified as Salvador Ramos, 18, broke in and announced: “You all will die.”

Then “He just started shooting,” Salinas told ABC News.

Texas authorities admitted on Friday that as many as 19 police officers were in the school hall for almost an hour before finally violating the room and killed Ramos, said the officers mistakenly thought that he had stopped killing and now in the vicinity.

Parents have expressed anger and on Sunday the Department of Justice Announces an Investigation “to identify the lessons learned and the best practice to help the first respondents prepare.”

Children who are still alive describe making a request for despair and whispering for help in 911 telephone calls while the police waited.

Some play dead to avoid attracting the attention of the shooter. Miah Cerrillo, who was eleven years old, smeared the blood of a friend who had died in himself to pretend to die.

Salinas said he thought Ramos shot him, but the bullet crashed into a chair, sending broken bullets to the boy’s feet. “I played dead so he wouldn’t shoot me,” he said.

Another student, Daniel, whose mother would not give his last name, said he saw Ramos firing the glass at the classroom door, attacking his teacher.

Even though his teacher lay on the floor of bleeding, he repeatedly told the students, “‘stay calm. Stay in where you are. Don’t move,'” Daniel told The Washington Post.

‘Have courage’

Vice President Kamala Harris on Saturday attended the funeral of a victim of mass shooting Buffalo-Ruth Whitfield, who was among the 10 people killed on May 14, allegedly by the white supremacy depicted.

“The congress must have the courage to stand up, once and for all, to the lobby of weapons and endorse the laws of weapons that make sense,” Tweeted Harris.

Uvalde shooting was the deadliest school attack since 20 children and six staff were killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut in 2012.

But apart from the epidemic of mass shooting and flooding the purchase of private weapons that are increasing, the congress has repeatedly failed to approve the possibility of new regulations.

This time may be different, said some parliamentary members.

Democratic Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy said on Sunday there was an ongoing “serious negotiation” involving members of both parties.

In Uvalde, Robert Robles, 73, said he was happy Biden had visited to show concern but said the President needed to endow a law that limits a strong military style rifle, such as AR-15, and “protecting these children.”
