yikes, could the authorities have stopped this?

I keep hearing that America has the biggest problem with mass shootings. I find that hard to believe. I looked around and found this article...

Some good points in here:

The tragedy that happened in Texas, has caused high emotions on all sides. Every time a bad person uses a gun to kill multiple people (except Chicago), the far left, and now the President make pleas to people about more gun laws. They say republicans have stopped them from preventing these kinds of tragedies. They even assign unwarranted blame to those who disagree or oppose them. I am not sure if they actually believe this or not, but they act like more gun laws would stop the next one. However, these people don't want to talk about some of the simple things that really led to this tragedy and others. First let me say, let's live in reality... people can get guns if they want to, no matter what restrictive laws are passed. What irks me, is that they talk about the problem of "guns" like nothing else in the tragic set of circumstances mattered. Often there were warning signs in the mental health of the gunman, that were ignored. (i would say the spiritual health is the more important factor that led to what they did, but anyway...) Do you know what the main thing is that we should be talking about, but i don't hear much about except from the right side of the isle? How did the mass shooters get into the schools where the shootings happened? Unlocked doors. No armed guards or teachers. This is huge! To act like making guns hard to buy or to take them away from people saves the next school when the next maniac gets a gun and shows up with the intent to kill is absurd. I am ok with people hating the 2nd amendment and wanting to make new laws, since they are entitled to their personal and political opinions. However, how can any sane person ignore the main reasons these tragedies happen? So when you hear conservative people say to stop politicizing this, they are right! Unless politicians and news media talk about the real issues and not just guns, they have done just that...

My mother has a new book up on Amazon, “The Rapture ; When Does It Occur?”

It’s free on Kindle for the next few days.

https://www.amazon.com/Rapture....-When-Does-Occur-ebo

It inductively examines and then charts Old Testament and New Testament prophecies. It also examines the four main views of the Rapture. Her conclusion is the post-tribulation rapture.

Personally, I believe the Democrat Party *wants* school shootings.

Saw this posted elsewhere on social media (by a GN via MD). It adds detail to a fact pattern that I think is accurate.

Do you know what DEF fluid is? It's Diesel Exhaust Fluid. Every Diesel truck that has been made since 2010 is required to use it. It's a product made of 32.5 percent urea and 67.5 percent deionized water. Every newer diesel truck you see driving down the road today has to have this product to drive (by law). DEF is sprayed into the exhaust stream by an advanced injection system and then converted into ammonia on a catalyst. The ammonia breaks down dangerous NOx emissions produced by diesel engines into nitrogen and water.. That's the purpose of DEF.
Right now, Russia is the largest exporter of Urea by a wide margin. Qatar is second. Egypt and China are Tied for 3rd. Both Russia and China have decided to no longer export Urea. On top of that, India is the largest manufacturer of Urea in the world even though they consume most of what they make. What little they would export..........they no longer do. They are now stopping the exportation of any and all Urea minus a deal they just cut with Sri Lanka.
What does this mean for you and me? Well, first, the United States imports most of it's Urea fertilizer. We are the third largest importer in the entire world. We depend on other countries to eat, drive and ship our products.
Secondly... Flying J is the largest Service provider for Truckers around the Unites States. I'm sure you've seen their massive gas stations when traveling around the country. Flying J gets 70% of their DEF fluid from shipments via Union Pacific railroad. UP has single user access to the Fertilizer plants that Urea/DEF fluid comes from. No other rail provider has access to these distribution points. This means Flying J can't just go around Union Pacific. Union Pacific is in charge....for a reason I'm gonna mention in a few paragraphs.
Flying J provides 30% of all DEF consumed in the United States. UP has told Flying J to reduce their shipments by a whopping 50%. And if they do not comply then they will be completely embargoed. That would in effect bankrupt FJ. This means that 15% of all DEF consumed by truckers in the US is no longer available at the largest travel service center for the entire trucking industry.
Rome rotted from the inside out. It was easily invaded because it was occupied with internal problems. It appears we have discovered the Trigger. DEF fluid. If this holds up, DEF shortages will be the catalyst that causes food shortages in the coming months. Not only is there a shortage of fertilizer to grow crops in drought-stricken states (See Kansas' drop in wheat production for 2022)....but....now it looks like, unless the Federal Government intervenes via the Defense Production Act, ...which I am no longer confident they will....there is gonna be an absolute massive shortage of trucking in the coming months.
There simply isn't going to be DEF fluid sufficient to keep the engines running and moving. Home Depot is now limiting the amount of DEF you can buy in their stores.
I would think long and hard about the decisions you are making right now. Where you live. What you spend money on. How you prepare. This is so real that the CEO of Flying J, Shameek Konar was summoned to a Surface Transportation Board hearing to give them all this info.
From what I'm reading....Blackrock is the majority shareholder of Union Pacific railroad. How is that important? Americas biggest fertilizer producer is CF Industries. Their largest shareholder is Blackrock. Blackrock controls the fertilizer industry in the U.S.. Union Pacific has exclusive rights to distribution points of fertilizer. Urea is fertilizer. Flying J needs Urea/DEF. Blackrock is controlling everything.
The Chairman of the BlackRock Investment Institute is Tom Donilon, President Obama’s former National Security Advisor. Tom Donilon’s brother, Mike Donilon is a Senior Advisor to Joe Biden. Tom Donilon’s wife, Catherine Russell, is the White House Personnel Director. Tom Donilon’s daughter, Sarah Donilon, who graduated college in 2019, now works on the White House National Security Council.
It appears Blackrock is spearheading the dismantling of the US system on behalf of the Globalists. And the first domino they are pushing over is the energy sector. They are using DEF to get the party started. This is one sector of the biggest downfalls in political repercussions this country has ever faced… 😑

My boy shaved 25 seconds off his 2 mile time and still took 8th. Still, this mighty fast.

To anyone in the know, the lies are so infuriating!
