Re: Shooter has been groomed for 4 years
In 2018 two teens were arrested for planning a mass shouting at their school in Uvalde Texas. Their plan was to carry out the shooting in their senior year which would be 2022. The teens were 13 and 14 years old. The youth were evaluated by mental health professionals and the older of the children was released to his mother. Here is the statement made by the Uvalde school system in 2018:

Uvalde CISD issued a statement on Thursday:
Our school district is committed to the safety and education of all our students and we want to clearly communicate about safety issues when they arise. One of our Morales Junior High students was experiencing a crisis. Upon rendering aid and support, the student revealed a future plan to conduct a school shooting in the year of 2022. With the type of detailed information that was revealed by the student to law enforcement and confirmed in their investigation, the student has been arrested and will not be returning to our school. Our school district has a strong partnership with our local law enforcement agencies and emergency responders. They share our commitment to student safety, and we are working closely with them to ensure all information is thoroughly evaluated and our school is as safe as possible.
We ask our parents to assist us in reminding their child/children of the importance of telling a staff member if they ever become aware of a plan to harm individuals or of a weapon at school. The STOPit app may be utilized by parents or students to inform administration of any inappropriate behavior. In this way, we are all working together to keep our schools safe.


So, they had 4 years to be groomed by professionals on how to carry it out. On his 18th birthday Salvador purchased to long guns.

Re: Shooter has been groomed for 4 years
You assholes have really got to stop with the video games argument. Millions of people play violent video games every day and there are no issues. If you're going to stand behind gun rights and blame mentally unstable people rather than the guns, then you must understand that your video game argument is exactly the same.

Bunch of hypocrites.
 Quoting: Duderson


Try to understand how it works for just one second.

Video games are constantly updated by IP address and Email address.

Every game has updates installed automatically sometimes daily.

Each of these updates are tailored for the particular user based upon their scores and equipment.

Now imagine if that game had a subliminal program attached to those updates by the government based upon the user's mental state and proscribed drugs similar to the methods used during MKultra but computer generated according to the governments needs.

And what is worse the next update would be able to wipe or overwrite the previous subliminal programming so that there was no trace of it in his computer.

Read how the "anti depressant" drugs work and what happens if the patient stops the "treatment".

The drugs numb the senses and if they stop taking the drugs, there's a period of time the patient is in withdraw, and completely lacks compassion.
It's a known fact. Most of these shooters were on these deadly drugs at some point.

 Quoting: docsquat


While I don;t indulge in conspiracy theories with no basis, the coincidental timing of this shooting in regards to the place Uvalde TX cannot and should not be ignored.


A few reported facts from the incident should also be considered.

The teens from 2018 in question, proclaimed they would shoot up the Uvalde TX High School not an elementary school.

Salvador Ramos was reported by the media, to have no previous arrest record.
If true this discounts him from being one of the teens from the 2018 article. However there is always the possibility he knew these kids or was in their social circle as it was also reported he hung out with the "goth" ad "emo" kids.

This could have been something planned in a social circle of troubled teens for a long time and Ramos simply followed through.

Another troubling question is that it was reported that police chased this kid into the school, yet it was a border patrol agent who entered the school WITHOUT BACKUP and neutralized the suspect.

Why did none of the police who were pursuing the suspect follow Ramos into the school or provide backup to the lone border patrol agent who entered the school?

Also, not sure about TX but every elementary school in my state has LOCKED DOORS and you must be buzzed in by the office to enter the school.

Why was this elementary school not equipped with locking doors from the outside and a "buzz in system" for entry?
This is a common place security measure to keep children from being abducted by strangers or by unauthorized adults and a way to keep track of each and every child who enters or leaves the school.

Why was it so easy to access entry into this school with officers actively chasing the suspect?


again, I am not buying into outlandish conspiracy theories but the coincidental timing and place of the shooting in regards to the 2018 incident as well as the police pursuit and security questions definitely need to be addressed by investigators or the families in my humble opinions.

My sincere condolences to the families in this tragic event and may these children rest in peace.

Maybe the grandma was cutting him loose on his 18th Birthday, and he was an illegal, and freaked out? Should have stayed in Guatemala or wherever he was from. He would still be alive then.

Re: Shooter has been groomed for 4 years
There are five tell tales I look for in every one of these shooting.

1) Video game history
2) psychotropic drugs
3) were the authorities aware of potential violence
4) disaffected young males
5) family member murdered before incident

If all five are present, there is a 75% possibility that the shooter was programmed to kill via his medications and subliminal programming encoded into video game updates automatically installed on his version of whatever game he routinely played.

That probability is as High as it will get it without examination of internal gaming software or forensic evidence.

This sort of programming makes MKUltra seem like a vague suggestion.
 Quoting: GORGLESNARGLE


The age is very significant — roughly 18 to 25. That’s also when mental health issues develop often times.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 73895558


There are actually two factors at play:

1. Most mental illnesses, specifically (what is, oh, so very inaccurately called) "personality" (brain) disorders cannot be diagnosed until age 18. This does not in any way mean the person has not been exhibiting behavioral symptoms throughout childhood.

For example, if it still stands, Antisocial "personality" (brain) disorder cannot be diagnosed unless "oppositional defiance disorder" or "conduct disorder" symptoms were present in childhood. I've not kept up with the diagnostic criteria for ASPD, so they may now just use it as an indicator rather than a requirement.

So, we have a shitload of kids being written off as ADHD, "just a kid, s/he'll grow out of it", "strong willed", overly emotional (BPD) when the overt behavioral signals are there.

Parents don't want to admit there's something wrong with little Johnny, that they are ineffectual in parenting or, worse, they are disordered themselves (big genetic component).

Kids don't "fit in" at school due to brain (cognitive, perceptual, thought disruptions...untreated mental disorders), and they become fringe and social outcasts. Again, many parents are disordered themselves, so not only no help there but, typically, emotionally neglectful or even abusive environments.

2. Major mental health disorders such as bipolar, schizophrenia, depressive disorder as examples, do start manifesting in late teens and early 20s and typically no later than age 25, which, interestingly, corresponds to the age the brain stops developing.

If there is any path to truth in this world, in 25 years it will be fully evidenced that mental illness is not fully psychological but neurological with symptoms that manifest psychologically and behaviorally. There's a great body of neuroimaging evidence that's demonstrating the structural and wiring differences. The brain is part of a complex biological system.

Genetics and epigenetics. Their brains are wired differently, and the ineffective field of psychology wants/needs to protect their (big business) industry. Psychotherapy (talk treatment) as it stands is not and will never be effective in treating the root cause any more than you can talk your high glucose levels down with type 2 diabetes.

As an aside, BPD is being successfully treated with DBT and EMDR, which they also inaccurately call "psychotherapy" but the techniques actually result in re-wriring parts of the brain (per leading neuroscientists).

We have a mental illness (brain disorder/disruption) epidemic in the US.

2. Major mental health disorders such as bipolar, schizophrenia, depressive disorder as examples, do start manifesting in late teens and early 20s and typically no later than age 25, which, interestingly, corresponds to the age the brain stops developing.

If there is any path to truth in this world, in 25 years it will be fully evidenced that mental illness is not fully psychological but neurological with symptoms that manifest psychologically and behaviorally. There's a great body of neuroimaging evidence that's demonstrating the structural and wiring differences. The brain is part of a complex biological system.

Genetics and epigenetics. Their brains are wired differently, and the ineffective field of psychology wants/needs to protect their (big business) industry. Psychotherapy (talk treatment) as it stands is not and will never be effective in treating the root cause any more than you can talk your high glucose levels down with type 2 diabetes.

As an aside, BPD is being successfully treated with DBT and EMDR, which they also inaccurately call "psychotherapy" but the techniques actually result in re-wriring parts of the brain (per leading neuroscientists).

We have a mental illness epidemic in the US.

Your making this way too complicated.

APPROPRIATE DISCIPLINE, starting at a young age would have nipped this in the bud.

The kid was obviously quite unsupervised for a long while if all these warning signs went unnoticed by a RESPONSIBLE ADULT.

Re: Shooter has been groomed for 4 years
Before people blamed video games they were blaming board games.

Every kid plays fucking video games.

This game became very real. The way he shot all these people, these games were likely "practice/training" in his mind. This shit desensitizes and motivates some people. The line between reality and gaming starts to blur.

This article also mentions that the grandmother was upset with him for not graduating this year as he should have.

(Much less that 50%)

"“He would message me here and there, and four days ago he sent me a picture of the AR he was using … and a backpack full of 5.56 rounds, probably like seven mags,” the friend told CNN. “I was like, ‘bro, why do you have this?’ and he was like, ‘Don’t worry about it.’”

The friend added: “He proceeded to text me, ‘I look very different now. You wouldn’t recognize me.’”

According to what the friend told CNN, Ramos “was taunted by others for the clothes he wore and his family’s financial situation,” and, the friend said, he “slowly dropped out…he barely came to school.”

The New York Times quoted former classmate Jeremiah Munoz, who said he played Fortnite and Call of Duty with Ramos. He told The Times that students bullied Ramos, “deriding his clothes or making crude references to his mother or sister,” as the Times put it.

But the newspaper also quoted classmate Charlie Marsh, who told the newspaper that, although other students called Ramos names, “including a homophobic slur,” she believed he was the provocateur."
