With the gunshots of seven mass shootings in the US sounding in the background, an investigation report of the Uvalde school shooting in Texas, one of the deadliest in US recent history, was released on Sunday local time, which found "systemic failures" and poor leadership in response to the shooting as it took nearly 400 equipped officers more than 70 minutes to stop an 18-year-old shooter who killed 19 children and two adults on May 24. 

The report underscored the dereliction of duty in one mission, but observers pointed out a notable trend that increasingly militarized US law enforcers, with full equipment, are incapable of properly handing emergencies like mass shootings. 

The "systemic failures" of law enforcement is "the tip of the iceberg" in front of the failures of US' domestic governance, observers said, explaining that many deep social problems were expressed in the fiercest way such as mass shootings while the US system cannot alleviate or address them.
