Sarah Palin on Florida School Shooting: ‘We Need to Discuss the Failure of the FBI,’ (TR)
Breitbart ^ | 17 Feb 2018 | ROBERT KRAYCHIK

Posted on 02/18/2018 8:52:23 AM PST by KC_Lion

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin offered comments about Wednesday’s mass murder at a Florida high school when she spoke with Breitbart News’s Senior Editor-at-Large Rebecca Mansour on SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Tonight on Friday. “It’s not a Second Amendment gun issue at all,” Palin said, adding, “What needs to be discussed is the failure of the FBI.”

Incompetence at the FBI — not agitation against the Second Amendment — should be a national focus related to the mass shooting in Florida, said Palin.

Adding to that assertion, Palin stated, “What needs to be discussed is the failure of the FBI. This kid who murdered all these innocent people could not have waved more red flags in front of law enforcement’s face – all those things that he did with posts, with his threats. Law enforcement called 39 times in the last number of years at his family’s home. There were so many red flags. I’m embarrassed for the FBI. The rank and file guys and gals, they work so hard. It’s the top brass. It’s a matter of priorities in the FBI, and that’s where I think the discussion needs to go.”

I get your chart

Errr.... MY chart.

but cops being called to your home and the commission of a crime are two different things.

Many of these calls were for Domestic Violence against his mother. ONE of the THIRTY-NINE calls, resulting in a conviction, would have been a firearms-disqualifier.

based on his history, how did he legally purchase an AR15 ...Law enforcement’s primary responsibility is to prevent crime, not to respond after the fact.

Dems won’t talk about the epic fail of the FBI because they are hoping for that tiny lil morsel that shows that Trump colluded with Russia..if they trash the FBI and call them a bunch of incompetent boobs, it will taint their precious Russia investigation..they will wait til after that BS investigation is over, they find nothing..then they will call the FBI incompetent boobs

The GOP is digging their own grave by fighting President Trump so hard on so many issues.

That is why I like talking to the rank and file with interviews like this so much.

But yes, all but the entire Senate is worse than useless, actual undermining of our country.

My thought, too. Who thinks the FBI supports 2A? I trust the FBI as far as I can spit a bowling ball.

We are literally seeing Communist Goal 35 being played out in front of us in real time:

Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.

We also need to discus the failure of the other kids to ‘snitch’ on each other.

There are now plenty of kids who KNEW this kid was in SOME sort of trouble & none of them made a noise about it.

How many will carry their failure into the rest of their lives???

Yes. When she accepted McCain’s offer to run as his VP, she had to be loyal to him. Even though he stuck her with a couple of “aides” who deliberately gave her losing advice (lent to McCain by Mitt Romney). She probably would have pushed that traitor McCain over the top if she’d been left to her own devices.

More and more, that rings hollow with me.

Perfect Cicero.

Sarah wanted to campaign in '08 in Michigan and Wisconsin and not let Ubama have them unchallenged.

Just for kicks, do you know where Sarah Palin was the final few weeks of the 2016 Campaign?

Michigan among them.

More importantly, where did Donald Trump campaign the final few weeks of the 2016 Campaign? Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania.

He needed those states to win, didn't win them by much, but won them by enough.

It's almost if you actually try you just might succeed, what a concept.

Spot on! Just e-mailed to my list of friends. This shows the depth of ineptitude exhibited by the FBI, local LEOs, and the School District. They all have the dead and wounded children’s blood on their hands. I have two of my pre-teen grandsons here today. When I look at them and think this fate could befall them, it breaks my heart.

Thank you for sharing the graphic vette :)

It has blown my mind the ineptitude that has been demonstrated by our law enforcement agencies.

See Something, Say Something and Be Ignored.

Hugs your wonderful grandsons tight sweet vette6387 :)

Heck of a chart! How is it again that the FBI is being bashed over the shooting and nothing is being said about the local authorities.

Palin needs to see that chart.

The FBI needs to do things: (a) more precisely define which crimes go to them and which go to local authorities, and (b) pass along all clues they receive to local authorities, whether or not they will also investigate.

See Something, Say Something and Be Ignored.

Oh, since Laz's chart is on Free Republic, I am sure Sarah will see it sooner rather than later ;)

Your two solutions to this problem makes way too much sense for them to actually imperilment them.
