Cops are in this video detaining parents, stopping parents from going in to try and save their children, while no law enforcement is doing anything more productive than "setting up a perimeter."

Parkland redux ...
Where I work part-time as a building inspector, there's a retired police sergeant who works in the next office as a zoning enforcement officer. Tonight was the night town offices stay open until 7:00 to accommodate people who have day jbs, so were there but we had to customers. So we talked about Uvalde. He confirmed that ever since Columbine, police have [supposedly] been trained that in a school shooter situation -- you go in. PERIOD!
He was disgusted by the reports he had seen from Uvalde. It seems like every piece on news that gets released just makes it worse.
When I first read that it was a Border Patrol team that made the first entry and took out the shooter, I was initially cheering that at least that agency was willing to do something.
And then I learned that several Border Patrol agents had kids in that school. So this wan't a case of a federal agency (which, of course, has zero jurisdiction in such matters) helping out local law enforcement. This was [just] a[nother] case of federal LEOs taking care of their own.
