A Terrible Shooting in Texas..

TEXAS school shooter Salvador Ramos shared three chilling Facebook posts warning of his deadly plot minutes before he slaughtered 21 at Robb Elementary.

On Wednesday, Texas Governor Greg Abbott revealed that 30 minutes before the school shooting unfolded, Ramos, posted: "I'm going to shoot my grandmother."

In a follow-up post, he wrote: "I shot my grandmother," according to Abbott.

Less than 15 minutes later, Ramos posted: "I'm going to shoot an elementary school," the Texas governor said during Wednesday's press conference.

Meta Communications Director Andy Stone said the messages that Abbott described were private one-to-one text messages that were discovered after the tragedy occurred.

The Republican governor said Ramos gained access to the school via a backdoor to an empty classroom.

Perhaps if Facebook didn't spend all its time censoring political speech it could have caught this and informed authorities!

Obviously, Facebook has no algorithms designed to alert them to those who talk about killing people, especially kids!

That tells you where Facebook's priorities lay!

This means that shooter Salvador Ramos was already in violation of the law when he entered Robb Elementary School. Therefore, the law prohibiting weapons on school grounds did nothing to stop him. So how would additional laws have made a difference?

The Gun-Free School Zones Act/18 U.S.C. § 922(q)(2)(A) restricts firearms on school property:
“It shall be unlawful for any individual knowingly to possess a firearm that has moved in or that otherwise affects interstate or foreign commerce at a place that the individual knows…

” … or has reasonable cause to believe, is a school zone.”
The school zone is defined as in, around, or on the grounds of a school or within 1,000 feet from the grounds of any school. 18 U.S.C. § 921(a)(25)

Per TX law, penalty for any weapons crime within 300 feet of a school was increased: https://t.co/Ospiw4gaud pic.twitter.com/b7svgOYfHa

Neither Constitutional carry nor concealed carry permits allow firearms on school premises and even DPS sanctioned programs like the Texas School Guardian Program require special permission.

Gun control consistently fails to prevent crime!

The only thing gun control laws accomplish is stripping the law-abiding of their rights!
