With the release of the Texas House Committee Report https://www.cnn.com/us/live-news/uvalde-shooting-texas-house-report/index.html on the Uvalde police response to the active shooter at Robb Elementary what tack do you think the gun community should take?
By that I mean, do we play up the failures of the police in these situations while pointing out the good Samaritan in Indiana who just recently took out a mall shooter and risk alienating the police by implying they are not ready for prime time? Or can we state that we are the best substitute when the police aren't there?
It seems the media is not linking the idea of a good guy with a gun (not police) to the police either not being able OR willing to engage a mass shooter.
This seems missing in the national conversation.
