I still want to know why it's so crazy to mistrust and internal investigation and prefer an independent 3rd party to investigate.

It's colleagues!
You do understand how US political organization works, yes?
Wait, obviously not, or you would not be asking that question.
The State investigating the County Police Department is not an internal investigation. So yes, people don't have a problem with something that is not happening.

Because we've seen this act before and possess basic pattern recognition.
If the case gets no national outcry and isn't prominent in the news cycle: Officers did nothing wrong.
If the case gets a huge media circus and can't be buried: Officer Patsy was at fault, hang him out to dry while the bosses who gave him the orders get off scott-free.
Nearly 400 officers were at Uvalde school as police waited to confront gunman, report says
A report says nearly 400 law enforcement officials rushed to mass shooting that left 21 people dead at a Uvalde elementary school. But “systemic failures” created a chaotic scene that lasted more than an hour before the gunman was finally confronted and killed.

There were over 400 officers who responded, and yet the outcome was still that fucked by their cowardice.

Now, I'm no expert on criminology or law enforcement, but it's troubling to me how an active shooter gets "asked" to put his gun down and come quietly, but people who are resisting arrest or making a run for it get their asses beaten within seconds. Or even gunned down outright, when it's too late to restrain them via hand-to-hand means. 
Anyway, really makes you think, huh? Especially in light of how so many other things went wrong, all culminating in mistakes that bought the shooter the time he needed to slaughter 21 people.

when there is a possibility of actually dying the police get a lot more polite. Which while logical is frustrating that they cant use manners and disgression more often.

Maybe, but considering how their target is an active shooter who's already killed a bunch of kids and teachers, well...
True, every time.
All just bystanders with no responsibilities whatsoever...

Happy to hear there was someone on site to stop any further deaths from happening.
Still, no one should've died that day, and whatever's causing these shooters to spring up in the first place—and I'm not necessarily blaming guns or any laws therefrom, by the way—it needs to be addressed. (But sadly, probably won't be, considering how the "powers that be" need to preserve their precious status quo of mental illness and power-mongering at all costs.

Honestly, multiple heads need to roll in this case. I don't think it's any conspiracy stuff here, however, just a case of bureaucracy and cowardice.
We should abolish the police and replace them with based 22 year old Johnny Wicks with Glocks.
they are 100% more effective!
"This" being.....what exactly?
Supposedly the Indiana shooter had the exact same weapons as the Uvalde shooter
In the sense of "they both had AR-15s", yes that appears to be the case. But they're not exactly the same per those photos, they've been configured differently.
Though even if they were identically configured, I'm not sure why that would be viewed as done sinister sign. These losers are notorious copycats, cloning a previous shooter's rifle setup sounds right up thier alley.
