'Suicide by cop': Verdict splinters Republicans' trust in FBI

Never thought I would live to see the day but I have zero trust in the FBI and do give them one iota of respect. And spare me the "it's just the guys at the top" BS. Until there are "whistle blowers", my feels extend from the top to the bottom and so far no "whistle blower" has come forward.

The FBI and CIA should be dismantled and something better put in their place.

And this was only a few months after a truck ‘stalled’ on the train tracks derailing a train full of Republican congressmen. Nothing to see here.

The only thing worth keeping at this point is tge FBI lab.

Nope. IIRC, they've been outed as fabricating evidence, and ignoring that which doesn't fit a narrative.

But keep believing you are free.

My longstanding tagline speaks to that.

The FBI coupists got caught while the GOP controlled Congress. It couldn’t be any more obvious that we live in a post constitutional one party police state.

Conclusion is so obvious....and I’m certain the las Vegas shooting was also a spontaneous suicide by cop....the cases are nearly identical.....yeah, that’s the ticket....

Every organization, from the family, military unit, corporation, and government institutions take on the mores, attitudes and character of its leadership.

Like newborn infants who cannot sin, yet some grow into barbarian killers, I've no doubt the FBI Academy grads show up for work as honest and patriotic Americans.

But they soon learn the real ropes and how to advance. Given enough time, I believe the system would soil saints.

Re: 24

I finally got around to watching the movie ('The Moment After' Parts 1 and 2). I ordered the DVDs from Walmart.
I enjoyed it, and I see the resemblance to our present FBI.
I have mixed feelings about the 'rapture'. My current eschatological belief is that when Christ comes back - it is over. But I can see some verses that seem to imply some people 'by-passing' the Great Tribulation (e.g., the Church of Philadelphia).
Regardless, we all need to keep our eyes on Christ, and Christ alone.

But back to the movie, it was done pretty well. And they painted a likely picture of an oppressive Government that will bend its knee to a One World Entity (and digital global currency), enforced by a Godless security force (be it FBI, or other manifestation). Unfortunately Part 2 ended with a lot of loose ends that were left hanging. And as near as I could tell, no Part 3 was ever made to tie them up. Nonetheless, thanks for the movie recommendation.

It was done so many years ago and I thought the technology used was great considering. I believe in the pre-Trib rapture but do believe tribulation will be part of the end times. Persecution is rampant in other parts of the world for the cause of Christ. I went on a mission trip many many years ago and it was evident the Christians were being watched closely. Christians in the US deserve no less for their beliefs. Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted, while evil people and impostors will go on from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived.
