The 18-year-old who shot dead 19 young children and two of their teachers on Tuesday messaged an acquaintance on Instagram hours before the massacre and said: ‘I’m about to’.
Salvador Ramos who is a Hispanic of Native Amerindian origin, was shot and killed by law enforcement at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, after he had murdered 21 people.
Ramos on May 12 messaged a Los Angeles-based woman he knew on Instagram, tagging her in a photo of the guns.
‘You gonna repost my gun pics,’ @sal8dor_ direct messaged her.
‘what your guns gotta do with me,’ she replied on Friday.
‘Just wanted to tag you,’ he said back.
Then at 5:43am on Tuesday, @salv8dor_ messaged her and said: ‘I’m about to’.
The girl asked ‘about to what’ to which he answered: ‘I’ll tell you before 11.’
He said he’d text her in an hour and urged her to respond.
‘I got a lil secret I wanna tell u,’ he messaged with a smiley face emoji covering its mouth.
‘Be grateful I tagged you,’ he wrote.
She replied: ‘No it’s just scary,’ adding: ‘I barely know you and you tag me in a picture with some guns?’
His last message at 9:16am on Tuesday was ‘Ima air out’.
The shooting started around 11:32am.
The woman reacted with horror when she learnt what he had done.
‘He’s a stranger I know nothing about him he decided to tag me in his gun post,’ she wrote.
‘I’m so sorry for the victims and their families I really don’t know what to say.’
She then added: ‘The only reason I responded to him was because I was afraid of him I wish I stayed awake to at least try to convince him to not commit his crime. I didn’t know.’
When an Instagram user asked if she was his girlfriend, she replied: ‘I don’t know him and I don’t even live in Texas.’
Ramos, born in North Dakota but who lived in Uvalde, was a student at Uvalde High School before finding work at a Wendy’s.
He had bought the guns he used in the shooting legally when he turned 18.
Under a new Texan law passed in September, those aged 18-21 could buy guns if they had a protective order, because they were at risk of family violence, stalking, prostitution or sex trafficking.
The law also removed the requirement for a permit for a handgun. Rifles were already permitted in Texas without licenses.
Ramos’s social media was full of photos of his new guns, which he bought on his 18th birthday, state senator Roland Gutierrez said.
Robb Elementary School, which has 600 students enrolled, is located in the city of Uvalde, hometown of Matthew McConaughey, 60 miles east of the Mexican border and 80 miles west of San Antonio.
A school friend of Ramos’s said that he sent him the photos of his guns too.
‘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.’
‘He proceeded to text me, ‘I look very different now. You wouldn’t recognize me,’ he added.
The friend said Ramos was mocked by others for the clothes he wore and his family’s financial situation, and eventually was seen less in class.
He largely dropped out, and took the job at Wendy’s, where co-workers remember him as quiet.
Adrian Mendes, evening manager at the Wendy’s, said Ramos ‘kept to himself mostly.’
‘He felt like the quiet type, the one who doesn’t say much. He didn’t really socialize with the other employees,’ Mendes told CNN.
‘He just worked, got paid, and came in to get his check.’
Mendes said that he did not know Ramos well – he was already employed when Mendes began in February – and didn’t see him most of the time because they were on different shifts.
Ramos worked from 11am to 4pm or 5pm, five days a week.
Thank God he wasn’t a white boy or else we wouldn’t hear the end of it of how evil white people are and supremacy and patriarchy and all that nonsense. Even like this, with the shooter being a “hispanic” or a Amerindian Native, leftists are spinning this.
Look for example, Michael Moore is calling for scrapping of Second Amendment of the US constitution. His argument? “We will not acknowledge that we are a violent people, to begin with. This country was birthed in violence with genocide of the native people at the barrel of a gun.”
So even though a native was the mass shooter here, yeah they are the victim. The fact of the matter is there wasn’t a systematic genocide. If there was, there wouldn’t a single Native left alive today.
When you use such words like “genocide” then the entire race has to be erased but it wasn’t erased. There were just continuous wars between the Britons and the Amerindians and the Britons won as they had much more sophisticated weaponry. There were also disease outbreaks… That’s not a genocide but whatever, facts don’t matter to leftists. They just have their agenda to push.
Regardless of his shitty anti-white rhetoric, these liberals might be right, perhaps its better for weapons to get banned in the US. They were allowed to have weapons to defend themselves from tyrannical governments. This was the purpose of the 2nd Amendment but there have been many oppressive governments and Americans didn’t do anything with those weapons they have. When is the last time they had a revolution there?
So basically their weapons ownership comes down to petty crime and mass shootings like this and yes on some occasions also defense of home invasions, but this is a false dicotomy. Had they not had so many weapons, there wouldn’t be so many home invasions, break ins and carjacks as the arguments they use are: “I need a gun in case someone breaks into my house with a gun.” Well if both you and that someone wouldn’t have a gun maybe he wouldn’t break in at all in the first place. It is only logical, the more weapons in a society the more crime, not the less crime.
