Reporter in Uvalde to CNN: Biden visit stoking 'a lot of outrage'
There is"a lot of outrage" over President Joe Biden visiting Uvalde, Texas, days after a mass shooting killed 21 in a local elementary school, according to a reporter there.
Stella Chavez, an immigration and demographics reporter for KERA News, was asked by CNN's Brian Stelter if the families of the victims care about Biden's trip on Sunday."I think it depends on who you ask," Chavez said during an appearance on Reliable Sources."I think, for the most part, the families who were affected want to focus on their loved ones who were killed.
Asked why that is, Chavez said,"I think some people are concerned about politicizing this event. And I’ve heard a lot of outrage from people. But I’ve also heard from folks who say, 'I don’t want to focus on that, on what could have happened, what should’ve happened, I just want to focus on the kids.' So I would just say it depends on who you ask.
Nineteen children and two teachers were killed in the school attack on Tuesday. Law enforcement killed the gunman, identified as an 18-year-old who officials say legally purchased two AR-15-style rifles days after his birthday, and now there are mounting questions about what took law enforcement so long to stop the attacker.Air Force One was landing in San Antonio as the interview with Chavez took place.
