While President Biden and the Democratic Party pursue a political agenda involving gun control following the horrific shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, the emerging profile of now-deceased shooter Salvador Ramos is replete with red flags, including one of the more common traits seen among deranged gunmen — animal cruelty.
A video has emerged of the 18-year-old killer smiling while holding up a bag with two bloodied cats inside, the New York Post reported. The sick trait is textbook behavior for psychopaths — the teenage suspect in Buffalo, New York, who killed 10 black Americans at a grocery store reportedly killed cats, even decapitating them.
The Post obtained the undated video showing Ramos grinning as he holds up a bag of blood-soaked dead cats while sitting in the passenger seat of a friend’s car.
In addition to this friend clearly being aware of the sick behavior, a classmate has said Ramos had a tendency to be “violent towards women” and an ex-girlfriend described him as “scary.”
“The shooter was known for hurting cats,” David Trevino Jr. told the Post.
Related to the shooter’s grandmother by marriage, Trevino suggested this was well known.
“He liked hurting animals,” he said. “I’m told he killed the cats and carried around the bag of bodies for s–ts and giggles.”
“The video shows he was not right in the head,” he added. “He’s not all there. The video raises all sorts of red flags.”
Ramos reportedly bought two AR-15 assault rifles after his 18th birthday earlier this month after asking his older sister to buy him a gun last year. The sister, who serves in the U.S. Navy, refused the request. Last week, Ramos reportedly got into an argument with his grandmother, whom he lived with, before shooting her. He then fled the house and headed to Robb Elementary School. Once there, he reportedly walked through a door that had been left propped open, according to authorities, and opened fire, killing 19 children and two adults. The mentally deranged teen even reportedly told the kids, “You’re all gonna die.”
Despite all the questionable actions of the Uvalde Police Department, the most egregious being to wait far too long to go into the school and confront Ramos, there were enough red flags at play involving the teen that should have been acted upon that could have prevented last week’s massacre. As popular podcaster Joe Rogan has said, America doesn’t have a gun problem, we have a mental health problem.
