FedEx Mass Shooter Was Reportedly ‘Known’ to Authorities
New York Post ^ | April 16, 2021 | Lia Eustachewich

The gunman in the FedEx shooting spree was previously known to federal and local authorities — and had been flagged up to law enforcement by a concerned family member before the deadly attack, according to a report Friday.

The suspect, who committed suicide after killing eight at the Indiana facility Thursday night, has not been publicly identified by police. But CNN reporter Ana Cabrera said he’s no stranger to law enforcement.

“Authorities were warned about FedEx suspect’s potential for violence in the past, sources say,” Cabrera tweeted. “The suspect in the Indianapolis mass shooting was known to federal and local authorities prior to the attack.”

So the corporate media lies about not knowing who the murderer was and his motives are being exposed.

Biden calls it ‘too normal’ and yet too many of these shootings seem to have at least one commonality: flagged up to law enforcement.

When you need help, you always hear, “Until a crime is committed, we can’t do anything.”

You are missing the obvious.
They have all taken place AFTER Jan 20.

4283, in part:
When does your enemy expend ammunition?
Do you expend ammunition against a weak opponent?
Do you expend ammunition against a non_threat?

Did the DS get a reload?
Why use it now?

Respectfully, what are law enforcement supposed to do if a known or anonymous person calls them and says X is crazy and I am worried he is going to do something?

I have never understood the reaction among many that somehow whatever X did was supposed to be prevented when the other 999 X’s out of 1000 do nothing and all 1000 X’s have the same constitutional rights that you and I enjoy.

Half of our congress thinks you and I are X’s because we did not support them or their candidate. Law enforcement can only act if they have probable cause that a crime has been committed or will be committed. It is not enough for a person to call and say “I am worried about X”. That is not proof of anything.

I read stuff here on FR every single day where someone spouts off. Do I think they are going to go postal on whatever the target of their animus at the moment is? No.

We need to be very careful with this subject. My numbers are only a best guess, but we cannot lock up, incarcerate, or violate the rights of any person based on a “report”. If we do that, we no longer live in a free society.

But somehow the police always manage to show up when a family calls about crazy uncle Joe not taking his meds, and then manage to shoot him for waving a screwdriver around.

But on the whole, I agree with what you said.
