The Gateway Pundit ^ | 05/07/2015 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 05/07/2015 12:30:23 PM PDT by Rusty0604

Elton Simpson (on left) , reportedly tweeted minutes before the attack that he and his fellow assailant had pledged allegiance to Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

The FBI knew Elton Simpson was heading to Garland, Texas. It’s not clear if local authorities were notified.

FBI Director James Coomey said they may have missed others.

Comey added: “There are “hundreds, maybe thousands” of people across the country who are receiving recruitment overtures or directives to attack the U.S.”

“What pisses me off is they didn’t bother to tell Garland police, let them do all the work, and then the FBI came in at a late hour and took over. The took affidavits from all of us and got our personal info, and didn’t release our cars until the next day.”

They needed your info to give to the IRS.

Yeah,,, but everybody forgets. They rolled up that guy from who escaped prison for a probation violation on a vehicular homicide charge from back in the 1950s. They caught him hiding out in florida where he was hiding by living as a retiree.

SO don’t do telling me the Feds aren’t keeping us safe.

Trade that car ASAP. As a potential domestic terrorist for having attended a hate rally, your vehicle is now well and truly bugged.

Think I’m kidding?

Everyone who knew of this in advance and took no action should face charges.

Did you miss the memo? We live in a totalitarian nation. End of story.

They know pretty much every terrorist attack that is going to occur, but they choose not to act to stop them. Why? I’m sure they have their reasons.

The FBI knew about it DAYS before because they are most likely the ones who recruited those two to execute the Jew and members of her audience. Who supplied the terrorists with their weapons, the FBI?

Well the people running the country would have to sorta want them stopped for starters... That’s been proven repeatedly to not be the case. But don’t let your lyin’ ears and eyes deceive you folks.

Personally I cant think of one good reason that the people promoting abortion, death panels, global warming and national health care would want a smaller population. But I’m a nut anyway.

The evil predates Obama. He’s just a willing stooge. After he’s gone, the evil will still be there.

The hero was a local cop. Fed cops stood down. Now we know why 0bama wants to federalize the municipal police.

“The Federal Bureau of Investigation warned Garland, Texas, police to be on the lookout for Elton Simpson just hours before he and an accomplice tried to attack a Prophet Muhammad cartoon contest Sunday evening, FBI Director James Comey said Thursday.”

Here’s more:

The FBI sent a bulletin that included a picture of Mr. Simpson to police earlier in the day after agents learned that he had expressed interest in the event, Mr. Comey said. But they didn’t know he was planning an attack or even that he had left his home in Phoenix.

Mr. Comey said he has no reason to think that the bulletin contributed to the speed with which a police officer shot and killed Mr. Simpson and his accomplice, Nadir Soofi, when they opened fire outside the event.

LoL. I thought maybe they wanted to teach us Islamaphobes a lesson by holding us so late and our cars even later.

Giving a muzzie a flush terlet actually cleans him up a little. What’s wrong with maybe just a slit trench? Make him feel right at home. Next to a basket of corn cobs?

“Mr. Comey said he has no reason to think that the bulletin contributed to the speed with which a police officer shot and killed Mr. Simpson and his accomplice, “

And there is the rationale you’ll see for less cooperation between feds and local in the future.

That’s right, Jews and Christians are not worthy of any protection by Obama. Just ask the families of the four Americans held in Iranian prisons at this time, not to mention Sgt. Tahmooressi an active duty Marine who made the wrong turn and ended up in Mexico.
