not that they did anything at Columbine either – police were on site pretty much the whole time, SWAT arrived half an hour later – and they both sat on their thumbs for another hour
I specifically remember watching the Columbine massacre live, and being angry that the cops were dawdling around, chatting in groups, laughing, taking their time. It was like a paid day off of work for a fun training exercise on a sunny spring day. There was absolutely no sense of urgency at all.
Meanwhile, students were being murdered the entire time.
Are you thinking of columbine in 1998, in Colorado? Or are you thinking of that one in Texas about 2 years ago, where they gathered in the hallway, and wouldn’t let people through while the killer shot something like 23 kids?
Then there was the Parkland cop, who cowered outside, listening to the killer shoot one kid after another, then convinced the first cops on the scene to not go in, too.
He was later charged criminally, but was acquitted. He may have beat the charge, but he will always be guilty of abject cowardice.

yep, Columbine, not Uvalde – suicide at 12:08, SWAT entered school 1:09
