...”BTW, it ain’t your Daddy’s FBI.”...

Indeed it ain’t. This story demonstrates another reason why Americans are going crazy over Donald Trump.

This isn’t the FBI that was around when your parents raised you...at some point STUPID stepped in and took over.

Hmmmm. Young white man kills 9 blacks in church. News Alert 15 minutes later. "White RACIST Confederate flag flying extremest white supremacist murderer kills 9 blacks in church."

It took them a while to find the guy. Once they did, though, they found his manifesto and reached the conclusion that he was a racist. He said as much. When the selfies he took were released, the media started to play up the Confederate flag angle.

Something is strange about the Chattanooga case, though. The FBI says it's too soon to tell if he's been "radicalized" but they are treating him as a "homegrown violent extremist." If somebody's a violent extremist, haven't they been radicalized? Either these are very painstakingly nuanced terms, or the authorities are playing word games.

If they can't tell if he's been "radicalized" yet, then aren't they pretty well admitting that this could just be normal behavior for them?

He was not a radical. Just your typical Muslim.

You really expect the Obama run agency to say so without his permission?

LOL
