Hmmm.... Who is Nicholas Cruz? Is he another White Hispanic the Progressive Left can use against us?

Remember how the Left used Zimmerman as a White Hispanic in their anti-white racism against the right.

Every one of these mass shootings lately turns out the person had been in contact with the FBI. The FBI I think need to be suspended. Just stopped. Put down all your cases and step away from the computers.

NO. BOTH Russia and the parents warned the FBI,
but the terrorists were re-entered into the USA
without even needing passports.

That means, THEY knew but were too busy doing what?

My thoughts. How could the FBI possibly give priority to a school shooter threat, when they were clearly busy trying to frame and undermine the Trump presidency.

“Cruz was a known mental case, menace. He made threats. They were reported. What else is needed?”

How many threats like this our law enforcement people get? My guess is it’s so many that they can’t spend much time on most of them. Another guess is that only a small percentage require law enforcement’s attention.

I remember a parole officer who was being bashed because one of her parolees did something bad. She responded that she had hundreds of parolees under her supervision and just couldn’t spend “adequate” time on each one of them.

Our cops are spread thin.

The FBI knew about the Garland, Texas ISIS attack before it happened as well.

Look at the political spin already being used in the school shooting to call for gun control and help Democrats. A few kids dead? What do Democrats care? They’re already in the business of murdering babies and selling the body parts.

He talks to a local agent then an hour later a Miami agent calls him. Both offices knew about Cruz. But didn’t know they both knew about him.

Making creditable threats is one thing. But do we really want the FBI or any other law enforcement agency to lock up people ala a “pre-crime” unit – “Minority Report”

Do we start locking up people for posting pictures of their guns on social media, hunting pictures, or saying things the government or the PC crowd doesn’t like, or forcibly institutionalizing people who are a bit “off” or anti-social?

That is my FRiends, IMO a slippery slope.

This is further indication to me that a sizable amount of people in the US government want Americans to be slaughtered. If the guy instead had threatened Feds, they would have tracked him fiwn before he did anything.

“What else is needed?”

An actual crime.

I guess some of this might dance on the edge of being a “threat,” but to be legally actionable a threat has to be very specific — not “I want to kill someone,” but rather “I am going to kill John Doe.”

And proving someone is crazy enough to deprive them of liberty (being a threat to himself or others) is very hard thanks to the liberal supreme court of the 1970s and .. . . believe it or not . . Geraldo Rivera who made his name by producing slanted and salacious shows on mental institutions, which turned public opinion against locking up crazies.

Time to disband the FBI. They can’t or won’t do their jobs.

I wonder how many teen/early twenties males in a state of 21 million like Florida, could be found with a similar personality profile and social media presence? If it was really researched, would they find three or four, thirty or forty, three or four hundred, or something in the thousands?

Everyone would hope some preventive screening procedures are possible, but how many fitting such a profile might be found and could anything be done, or should anything be done based on personality profiles?

...

According to the story an agent showed up within an hour. It looks like the ball was dropped after that.
