Yeah this has already been litigated over and over, police have no obligation to protect or serve

Edit: Spelling

But they forcibly prevented the parents from protecting their own children. It's fine to say you won't protect and serve but by preventing the parents from going in should be some degree of murder. How the fuck could good Samaritan laws work if the people are required to act.

The officers literally instructed hiding children through the door to shout for help during an active shooter situation

This resulted in the direct death of at least one child that would otherwise have survived

The cops literally caused more dead kids than if they never showed up at all, indicated by the parent who fucking Metal Geared past the police line to extract their kids

Not to even mention how their messaging post-incident indicated the cops killed kids with indiscriminate shooting

Someone’s gotta do something about these cops.

They can literally shoot innocent people for no reason and not get charged with murder. you think they are gonna get charged with 'some degree of murder'?

Which means that every single time you see police protecting nazis, it's because they chose to. Uvalde was police showing us who they don't want to protect.
