I am as quick to call for reform as anyone but I have no doubt they are and have been protecting people in the surrounding area.

Let's give them benefit of the doubt and be happy they are there.

Cajaha,
"Riding the clock"

For all you (or for that matter any of us) know, they maybe negotiating with the suspect for a peaceful surrender.

I hate to think of the officer "Still on the scene". Is that the media's polite way of saying hostage? They need to end this ****. I'd rather die knowing my fellow officers were coming to get me than the alternative...if that is the case. I hope he's not still in that house.

It's a dangerous job but they are riding the clock at this point.

I guess they are allowing the social workers time to enter the house and solve the situation.

People will always find a reason to complain.

What baffles me is that they haven't ended the standoff yet, with 15000 cops on the scene.

People have been shot (possibly killed) and y'all's complaint is that they told a school to keep the kids indoors and continue teaching.

Gosh, I use to think Joseph T was level headed and wise, but lately I am beginning to question my thoughts

Come on man, you know they are not sharing everything right now. Just pray for them and stand behind them

The shooter isn't in custody, but he is barricaded inside his house and it's surrounded by multiple law enforcement agencies. There is no reason to lock down a school that is 10 miles away.

The preliminary info I got was sketchy...still a sad situation. Funny the local news isn't all over this. Prayers for the victims

Sorry I thought I posted a retraction but it didn't go through. About a kid. That was inaccurate early info...

Apparently they don't know where the shooter is at this time. And are taking precautions JOE

Joseph,
If the shooter isn't in custody and by all available information the shooter isn't, if they didn't recommend these actions and the shooter was able to get to the school and harm kids...well then. Exactly how much law enforcement training do you have?

There doing what they need to do "JOE"

I am sure there are details that aren't shared at this time.
