President Biden told a local lawmaker while visiting Uvalde on Sunday that the federal government may provide resources to raze Robb Elementary School, where 19 children and two teachers were shot and killed earlier this week, the NY Post reports.

“He said, ‘I’m not going away. I’m going to bring you resources. We’re going to look to raze that school, build a new one,’” state Sen. Roland Gutierrez, who represents Uvalde, told KSAT.

“I can’t tell you how many little children that I’ve talked to that don’t want to go into that building. They’re just traumatized. They’re just destroyed.”

Other sites of mass shootings have been demolished in recent years.

Sandy Hook Elementary School, where a gunman shot and killed 26 people in 2012, was torn down and replaced by a new $50 million school on the same property in Newtown, Connecticut.

School officials in Colorado were considering razing Columbine High School in 2019 due to a “morbid fascination” surrounding the building where 13 people were murdered in 1999, but they ultimately decided not to tear it down.

  1. Why don’t they tear down the homes of the killer and their families like the tzionim do in Eretz Yisrael? That would make more sense.

  2. Oh that’s just brilliant. Let’s punish the taxpayers of that small town. Let’s tax them for a new campus until they bleed to death. No question, Joe Biden is the smartest President in our Nation’s torrid history.

  3. So on 2019 Columbine had the idea of razing their building from an attack which occurred 20 years prior. Change the name maybe, not the building. I’m pretty sure there are are no students (and very few staff) thet were there back then. The name may be infamous however so it could be if they want a change they should focus there.

  4. Yes, it’s a good answer, makes sense. There’s such a long delay in approving posts that it wasn’t up yet when I posted.
