The Mayor of Uvalde, Texas, the location of the horrific mass shooting at the Robb Elementary School, is pondering the same question that has perplexed many of his fellow Americans.
That is, why do politicians seem okay with writing a taxpayer-funded blank check for foreign aid, even benefiting hostile nations, while there are so many serious problems needing attention here at home?
Lamenting the lack of sufficient resources for mental health treatment, Don McLaughlin told Fox News in the video clip embedded above, ,”No one wants to pick up that tab…we give billions of dollars away to countries that don’t even like us. We ought to be taking that money and invest in our own country and build facilities.”
In an interview on “America Reports” while he was in his car in transit, Mayor McLaughlin underscored the need to address the psychological and emotional well-being of potential offenders. “How many times do we hear that a shooter had mental health problems — he never got help that he needed…they dropped them off the face of the earth. Nobody wants to pick up that tab to treat the mental health deal. Mental health is real.” more
“they dropped them off the face of the earth.”
Nah. We know about them. Where they are. What sets them off. How to reach them.
We even keep in contact.
For later use.
Excuse me and my deplorable mental health when I say that I want Federal money to dry up for most everything except Constitutionally-mandated ‘Federal’ activities.
(And forgive me for not itemizing.)
Can that be said of every city/county/State where there’s been a mass murder that there’s no money for mental health but plenty of money to murder an unborn child? Priorities are screwed up. However, I believe that no amount of health care can help anyone who is hell bent on killing. Even Satan can’t be fixed. Anyone remember this school massacre? Probably not since it happened in 1927. The man was a pillar in the community, but look what he did. He was also called the most “sane” man in town. A total of 45 people died.

Uvalde police had class 4 vests given to them that would stop rifle fire.

The patient list would be 98% liberal Democrats
Right, every problem is caused by the govt not spending enough money :/
America couldn’t be kept, getting it back won’t be fun. Buckle up it’s going to be rough.
Installing Biden was a last-ditch effort so anything else that comes from the Democrat party would no longer surprise me now.
^^^^^^ Well what’s coming next is gun bans.
Easy-peasy you can no longer be saved, your a lost cause! Next!
Our US (and Allied) Marines and soldiers had magnificent courage when they hit the beaches in WWII. 180 degrees from those police in Uvalde.
The only way for them to claim innocence is proof that the standdown order came from a very high echelon – higher than the Texas government. Gov. Abbot seemed to be as genuinely angry as the parents who lost their kids.
The story of Uvalde is far from over.
