Sounds like a dem gun control plot as sick as that is to say how else do u explain officers being told not to enter the building and to stand there while kids are murdered
That’s what a Mama Bear does! 💯 I will make sure my kids are ok, and they better watch out. 🤬
That's crazy… as a parent they would had to shoot me cause that's the only way they stopping me from getting in that school for my kids…
Cops only concern is to get home alive. They have USSC laws that tell them their lives are paramount in all situations. THEY ARE NOT HEAR TO PROTECT US.
can you imagine being a child in that school KNOWING that the police are out there but not coming inside to help, and the fact that the police were out there for hours as innocent children were getting murdered. the children that died that day because they attended school woke up and went to school to learn and see their friends, instead they watched as their friends got shot one by one until they got shot themselves. those police officers could have saved the lives that were lost that day but instead, they chose to stay put only thinking about themselves.
#Supermom
Thank you for sharing this!!! That woman..an amazing mother needs our help.
The police were absolute cowards. What are they getting paid for?
GUYS ….SHE IS ON PROBATION AND WENT IN FRONT OF JUDGE!!!!! JUST TO SAVE HER CHILD!!! THE SYSTEM REWARDS CRIMINAL BUT WANTS TO FINE A MOTHER!!!! AMERICA IS A TERRIBLE PLACE.
Um why didn’t she help the other kids too?? She was already in there wtf is wrong with people this woman isn’t a hero she was looking out for her own. She went in a classroom with an active shooter still on campus and didn’t think to help anyone else?
She gives new definition to the term “Mama Bear!” That is definitely her spirit animal! Pete Arredondo you should take notes from her!
She single handedly made sure she saved her kids while the police were outside. So disappointing and frustrating of the police they should have ran in there at all costs
I would have did the same thing for my kids 💪🏾
I hope this mother doesn't end up in jail or worse please keep us updated on her.
Brave mother.
Hero MOM! If the police were as brave as she is, many lives could have been saved.
Why is she at work? America should gofund this girls whole life after what she did
She had bigger balls than every single one of those garbage cops. They should all be in jail for negligence
I live in Texas and am so very dissapointed and angered at the Law Enforcement in Uvalde…..they acted cowardly & shamefully and ALL need to be reprimanded…..
She a real one got more heart than the men I feel her fasho
These cops should be embarrassed. 75 minutes? They're real tough guys.
WOWWWWWWW! What a COURAGEOUS MOTHER!!!! 🙏💯💪
So so sad!! What cowards!! Those cops should live with what they did that day for the rest of their lives!!!
Good for her. I would have rescued as many kid's as I could while saving my own even if I didn't have any kid's who went to school their. We need more super heroes like her. Those kids would have been saved
Bless this lady for being brave and fearless. She is a warrior. Yes , officers should not let people go in but if they aren’t going in to save her children and others children what else would anyone expect her to do. I am a rule follower, this makes me appreciate people who aren’t.
She just went and acted the police were planning and kids were killed
That mom is smart, brave, and articulate. Someone needs to give her a good job.
They should have given the parents the guns and vests, they would have been more effective in getting those children out
I have a feeling that there was no gap of communication. I believe the police were instructed to delay and stay out. Think about why. Think. I'm not saying more.
Yes all the agencies there my point proven not one protected them kids Only The Mother Was Brave Enough That Tells us few things tax dollars shouldn't go to help out police department or other agencies if they just want be out side for #looksAndNoActions
Freakin hero!
I am a mother of 3 and 5 grandkids I can't see why they waited so long to help with this /I don't see why they have to Serve and protect on the car's if you're not interested in really helping when it's needed a bullet proof vest is made for protection this is a perfect example of lack
Now that I’m a mom, I felt this 💯 more.
If one cop had the courage this lady had that shooter would not have been able to damage so many lives.
This MOM had more balls than all them PIGS…. good for you and cuz of YOU now your babies are ALIVE.
I actually believe what another person commented. These families and their children were marginalized by their police force. The Border Patrol finally went in! How long would they have stood around if they hadn't is more a scarier thought I'm wrestling with!!
She is 10 times braver than all of the cops there!
AND, what's with this,"getting under the desk, act like you're sleeping"?????????? WTH, seriously who came up with that one? How can staying in a classroom, while an active shooter is in the building, sitting under your desk, "like sitting sucks" be THE SAFEST alternative????? My God, break the damn windows and flee the danger!!!
Mom or the year !
She is a a Mamma bear. Good for her, and her babies are alive. Bless her. And if the law goes after her to keep her quiet, that is not obstruction, only says they have something to hide.
this sounds like the government set this up
Cops need to be charged with aiding and abetting a homicide also theres a law that states you must help someone in distress
I take my hat off to that special lady
She did the right thing. Very dangerous but at least she saved her children.
RIP to all the others that lost their lives. 💔.
