Omar Mateen purchased his weapons legally—although one gun shop owner refused to sell him firearms and body armor, and contacted authorities afterward, but they did not follow up.The highlighted sections above are contradictory, if Dr. Hanson will excuse me for saying so.Terrorists who are not directly dispatched from the Middle East (as were the 9/11 killers) are “lone wolves” who emerge from the shadows, channel Islamist extremism, and are almost impossible to preempt. But that is only a half truth.
And the reason they are contradictory in this case is simple: it is not in the interest of the elites who run our nation for firearms-murderers to be preempted. Let anyone think I am exaggerating, I need only remind that person of the details of Operation Fast and Furious, in which very dangerous military-grade weapons were allowed to be exported to Mexico by members of the Obola administration, in - I am certain - a direct attempt to further the wishes and desires of President Obola himself.
My thesis is not only not far-fetched, it is completely obvious, and has been admitted to - implicitly, anyway - by the disgusting Obola administration itself.
And nothing has been done about this.
Obola took an oath to "preserve and protect" the our Constitution, which oath he has demonstrated over and over again might have well been made of used toilet paper.
Which is literally true, since it was made with one hand on the Koran, if the rumors be true.
In defense of the FBI, the gun shop owner who notified them said he had almost no solid evidence to hand over.
“Abell says the young man left empty-handed and that the shop alerted the FBI, but since no sale was made, the shop did not check the man’s ID and had no name to give authorities.”
“...and the only surveillance footage they had was grainy.”
