Description

On May 24, 2022, a mass shooting occurred at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. 18-year-old Salvador Ramos fatally shot nineteen students and two teachers, and wounded seventeen others. Earlier, he shot his grandmother in the face.

The killer shut himself inside two adjoining classrooms without locking the classroom door, killed the victims, and remained in the school for more than an hour before the Border Patrol Tactical Unit (BORTAC) fatally shot him.

Police officers waited 74 minutes on-site before breaching the classroom to engage the killer. Police also cordoned off the school grounds, resulting in violent conflicts between police and parents who were attempting to enter the school to rescue children. Uvalde Consolidated Independent School District (UCISD) police chief Pedro Arredondo was identified as the incident commander. Arredondo refuted the characterization of his role as incident commander, but was later fired by the Uvalde school board for his actions during the shooting.

Lyrics

Every time this happens
Dead bodies are not seen
The pictures that we show
Always very clean

Show the bodies
Show the children
Show the god damn gun destruction

Show the bodies
Show the blood
Show us what our gun love does

Show the bodies
Show the blood
Show us what our lover does

Every time this happens
We put dead bodies in a box
The pictures that we show
Are just for prayers and thoughts

Show the bodies one by one
Right to life versus right to gun
Show the bodies show the blood
Show us what our lover does
