The FBI is not a national police force (as Scotland Yard, for example, is), and there are good reasons for this, as any boy who grew up before 1975 knows very well.

The Constitution does not create a general Federal police power. The control of unruly and dangerous individuals in Parkland Florida is the job of the Broward County Sheriff’s Department and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.

While whoever took this report about this crazy kid should certainly have called the Broward County Sheriff’s Department, and offered technical assistance if requested, it was not their job to find and detain this kid.

Wrong. The fbi is set up to handle this stuff. They have a hotline, protocols and procedures in place for handling exactly this.

And blew it. They admitted it already, that they failed to notify their Miami field office, which would have investigated it.

They already stated that.

The fbi already admitted they didn’t follow their own procedures.

“The Constitution does not create a general Federal police power.”

Abraham Lincoln did...or if you want to go back even further so did George Washington for the Whiskey Rebellion.
