Next, we need to reverse legislation that makes committal to an insane asylum a near impossible thing. It was common in my youth, but then the libs decided that wackos on the streetcorners was a good thing.

We can all thank Geraldo Riveria for that. He investigated "ONE" and they were all shut down.

I’m sorry but it seems to me that when it comes to offing Americans the FBI is consistently out to lunch. Always behind never ahead.
We are truly on our own.
Meanwhile in the ME our guys are fighting hard. Here with 17 casualties nobody in sight.
Mandatory gov ed should be over now as the kids are just sitting ducks
they would do better self educating and getting in the workforce, at least they are still alive.

They are parasitic malignancies in every society.

However, I know I’m hedging here, but we aren’t talking about creating a police state where any kid with depression or gun photos gets locked up.

That is what we are facing. 1. They take your guns or 2. They take your freedom. It happens across this country every single day when an anonymous tip goes into Social Services about a child and they are taken away.

Maybe we should just start calling them. They don't seem to have any problems getting kids taking away. /s

This is a great argument for owning guns. (Not that we needed one.)

Another fabulous example of FBI (Fully Brain-dead Individuals) competence...

That is my FRiends, IMO a slippery slope.

And was designed (by FBI doing nothing) to accomplish the goal of slippery slopes.

Don't let the left back us into corners regarding our guns and our freedom. They have been working this inch by inch for decades and I for one am sick of getting caught in their nets of deceit and their "Its all for the children" bs.

Yes, that was Willowbrook on Staten island back in 1972. Rivera was nominated for a Pulitzer. Their were abuses there but instead of correcting the problems thanks in large part to the ACLU they were all pretty much shut down.

I too remember boys bringing their rifles to school,
Some high schools in NYC of all places had rifle clubs. At my Dad's alma mater, Columbus HS in daBronx the basement area under gymnasium was a shooting range. Where I grew up in Rockland County, it wasn't unusual to drive along Rt 59 in Hillburn and see Black kids 14-15 years old walking along the road carrying rifles and in spite of race relations leaving much to be desired back then, no one gave it a second thought. Everyone knew they were just making their way into woods to hunt small game.

I just hope he was NOT a DACA baby, as some rumors have said.

Ok, please offer your feedback, but know that I am being sincere in what I am about to say.

This boy had a history of aggressive behavior. Enough to expell him. Enough to where his classmates expected this. His mother passed away and he was depressed. Another family brings him into his home. He brought his rifle and was asked to keep it locked and let him keep the keys.

My concern is (and this is hindsight as it usually is), should he have been left with the keys considering he was in an emotionally unstable state and had reports of aggressive behavior. I'm not blaming them. They stepped in and opened their home when he needed someone the most. But, in terms of the rifle and keys, What would you have done in a similar situation?

180 days X 24 hours = 4,340 hours
4,340 hours X 60 seconds = 259,200 seconds
259,200 / 50,000 emails = one email every 5.184 seconds.

And that’s based on a 24-hour day, with no time off for sleep.

How is that possible?

They were reported to the FBI.

God only knows what the FBI did with that information. “Encourage him on” is as likely a course of action as any, given the individuals in decision-making capacities in that agency.

The FBI was alerted about the Muslims who only wanted to fly A/V’s on Horizontal path no land and no take offs.. what did they do zip.

Heard on Rush the FBI saying they couldn’t find out the identity of the person who said they wanted to become a school shooter... Is that not ridiculous?!

The issue for me is making the schools inpenetrable to shooters. Technology, scanning, concrete barriers, bulletproof glass, beefed up and armed security details doing rounds. All of these would have made it irrelevant where the gun was kept and who had the keys.

He included his name on the post that the vlogger screen captured.

They KNEW his name was Nikolas Cruz.

How many of those could be in the entire USA?

They were also working WITH the bombers in the 1993 WTC attack, to the point of complaining that they didn’t put the bomb in the most effective spot.

Now that the limitless malfeasance in the FBI, and likely other intel agencies also, been revealed beyond a reasonable doubt, a full audit of their involvement in previous high-profile terror attacks is in order.

The murdered witness in the Boston Marathon case will be particularly interesting to hear explained. I definitely want to hear all about how they were able to get away with that one.
