Within the article linked is the body-cam video of the police in the Nashville school shooting. As an amateur, I say they did everything right as compared to Uvalde and Parkland. Good on them!

Big Thumbs UP!

First and foremost, God bless those men who ran towards danger and worked fast towards the perp!

Just my opinion, but this is just part of their agenda.

The disparity between this and Uvalde is insane. The moment they realized where the person was there was zero hesitation to get there as fast as they could. I could only hope I would have the same courage.

Florida found a simple solution to fight evil! Guardian Program keep trained gun to the fight

Outstanding action from the LEO's. Seemed like they got on the scene and got in the fight immediately, no wasted time standing in the parking lot.

I just can’t fathom any part of this. The sickness that leads a person to do the heinous act of killing innocent kids, the responsibility to respond and kill a kid of a kid was indeed the shooter as they originally thought, the guilt of the survivors. Thankfully it ended quickly.

Where were the SRO's?

Private Christian school. Families pay taxes to fund SRO's for public schools, then pay to send their kids to private school in which has no public funding for SRO's.

Not always the case but very common for private schools not to get funding or appointment of SRO.

It takes amazing men and women to do that job. When I see a LEO I make it a point to thank them for what they do.

A lot of private schools don't like to address the evils of the world and make themselves soft targets

I believe the hopelessly insane have literally lost all compassion for fellow humans. Unfortunately there’s lots of insanity getting coddled and empowered these days. At least there are still good people running to danger to protect innocents.

How many of you members would run in there knowing you would die?

Heartburn I have with this story:
1. "Assault weapons" used and/or AR style rifleS (emphasis mine). We all know that the media is clueless about guns and that an anti-2A agenda is being pursued. One of the weapons was an AR-15 and the other was a Kel-tec sub-2000
2. A focus on using the "proper" pronouns for the shooter by reporters.
3. The shooter turned out to be a gender confused woman. It is a mental health issue that is being glossed over because "it doesn't hurt anyone". BS...it certainly seems to have killed 7 people in this instance.

Kudos to Nashville/Metro PD for handling the situation so well, especially when compared to other LE agencies such as Uvalde or Parkland. They did it right.

I'm no longer concerned with being politically correct, "enlightened" or woke. I will be truthful and say the truth. If it offends someone or gets me kicked off of a platform, it will be obvious that the platform is not concerned with the truth.

False decision. There is no way of knowing the future. Possibility of death...sure, but you don't KNOW.

I train for that very thing at my job, so I believe (don't KNOW) I would.

Kudos and respect to the Metro Nashville Police Dept. This is the way it should be done. The officers did right by taking the offensive and hunting down the shooter. There is no other path to successful resolution

Yeah, can't help but contrast this with the utter failure of law enforcement in the Uvalde Texas school shooting.

Both my sons attended a Christian school while I was LEO at a college dept. in town. I always felt they were safe and took comfort that they weren't in public schools, which were not good at the time. Times sure have changed. We have to change with them

Worth a mention here, people constantly fuss about the militarization of the police force, and what we saw in that video was very much a military type building clearing. The days of sending flocks of halftrained good ol boys are gone which leads to organized operation and safer response by PD personnel. I don’t necessarily agree with waiting to group up and go but that’s part of it. A lot can happen in 30 seconds of grouping and going, and that’s a lot of time for the shooter to keep shooting, but somehow it seems to not make much difference. I guess because 5 minutes after the first shots everybody is either hiding, evacuated, or injured.

we all have ideas that we would rush in there… but in reality of the moment … I would be scared out of my mind. Not saying I won’t, but I would be scared

Something I noticed from the security camera footage of the front door is that the shooter went down a couple of hallways looking for someone and not finding anyone for a while. Of course, the fool alerted everyone in the building by shooting out the glass on the front door to gain access, but this shooter in this example gave warning shots more or less.

You're a fool if you're not scared. It's the courageous who go anyway.

warning shots… yeah basically
I hate to think this way, but knowing that in almost all of these situations there is considerably more firepower available than what is used, it seems like there is an initial flurry just to get a response happening and the shooter holds back a bunch of ammo to battle with police. I don’t know if it’s thought out that way, if the shooter has a moment of remorse and stops shooting or what. The response time of police is clearly enough time to either do more damage or go somewhere else, possibly try to make an escape. What I have heard reported is 2 rifles and a pistol. That’s probably 75 rounds give or take if there is no extra mags. It’s amazing that the fatality count isn’t much much higher, and it seems that it would be if the shooter really wanted it to be. Seems more of a suicide by cop attention grab.

I watched the body cam footage. The two police officers seemed to drive the situation. People will naturally hesitate in these situations. Nobody wants to get shot. It shows the difference a couple of hard chargers can make in a desperate situation. God bless them and in a time when hero is thrown about indiscriminately, those officers truly earned that status.
