A police chief who had his men sit back and watch children get murdered instead of ordering them to storm the room probably shouldn't feel safe.

Preferably for the rest of his life.

Not that I’m endorsing any threats against him, but how could he ever show his face in that small community ever again? Uvalde is small enough that he’d probably run into family members on a daily basis. How could he ever look any of them in the face without feeling tremendous shame for his failure?

He'd be crazy not to move out.

Here's an ugly truth. Some people only live next door and to them you're just a stranger.

I don't trust the presses description of what happened. After years of "defund the police" they turned on a dime into yet another new narrative.

I don't really think we know what did or didn't happen.

The surveillance videos and body cam videos are freely available on the internet. You can watch them (like I did) and see that the cops were hanging around in the hallway for over an hour before the BorTac SWAT breached the room.

The amount of naivety here is so absurd, that I can only assume willful ignorance. The government will gladly let people die to push an agenda, and even children aren't safe when they can use something to push for more control.

He doesn't feel safe because he knows he's guilty of letting children die.

Nor should he.

The west as a whole is obsessed with feeling safe. It's why they were able to ram all the covid restrictions through.

If you've ever been abroad, you know that the west's safety obsession is an abberation. Driving in Central America reminded me of Mad Max. People have a way higher tolerance for danger there.

It's another abstraction of victim culture. If someone says "I don't feel safe", a non-trivial number of people will interpret that to mean the person isn't safe, AKA they're being victimized. That's why professional victims always use that language. "I felt unwelcome" is translated as "I was being ostracized". "I felt that my race made me a target" is translated as "I was being hunted by the racist white man". They don't have to say these things, they let the stupidity of the audience do it for them. Then when they're exposed a liars, technically they can say they never actually lied. They were just feelings, after all.

Why is "feeling safe" a first-order concern of anybody?

If you were absolutely determined to escape having to face those parents at the meeting, you'd likely end up writing something like that. As far as public statements go, "feeling unsafe" is always an excuse these days, not a concern.

I'm glad he's feeling safe now.

Thoughts and prayers. I hope he can recover from this ordeal.

Look at him complaining about "legal procedure". Some union will get him his job back (or money as compensation).

He shouldn't feel safe anywhere on earth.
