[[Cruz "threatened to bring the guns to school multiple times," senior Eddie Bonilla said. Other students, he said, "threw jokes around that he'd be the one to shoot up the school." ]]

The FBI and LE dropped the ball (again), so let’s ban ARs.

FBI was too busy texting about how much they hate President Trump

[Blurb2350]

The FBI had their hands full getting to the bottom of Trump’s urine fetish.

After the arraignment, his court-appointed defense attorney, Melisa McNeill, described her client as a "child," adding: "He's sad, he's mournful, he's remorseful, he is fully aware of what is going on, and he's just a broken human being."

It was out of his control! The AR15 made him do it!

So, the FBI was alerted about him, yet that same FBI - which was tasked by then-President Obama to use a fine-toothed comb on "domestic" terrorists - not only didn't follow up the red flag on his threats, they didn't even manage to run across him doing post-graduate work with any outfit they were surveilling.

To be fair, the FBI was busy turning fiction into FISA warrants...

Sure sounds like they should've been able to locate him about the comment.

He had recently been expelled from the school for disciplinary reasons

So had Trevon Martin.

How many mass shootings have occurred where the FBI had the suspect ‘on their radar’?

Too many coincidences...

[Road Warrior ‘04]

I’m beginning to think that FBI means “Fuckin’ Black I”! They have to find some way to, possibly, get their credibilty back.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Russian authorities warned the FBI in 2011 about Tamerlan Tsarnaev, one of two Chechen brothers accused of carrying out last year’s Boston Marathon bombings, but U.S. authorities missed chances to detain him, NBC News reported on Tuesday.

"Missed chances" is one way to describe terrorist attacks and mass shootings that could have been prevented.

Last fall, a You Tuber provides the Bureau with the screen shot of a post in the comment section of his channel from Nicholas Cruz saying he was going to become a professional school shooter. Mind you, the post had the shooter's real name right there on the post. Fast forward - The SAIC gets in front of the camera today and essentially claims the Bureau had nothing to go on. However, Cruz's facebook site with his real name was only shut down yesterday. Go figure this one out. If the Bureau was too lazy to do its job, I bet they were also too arrogant to turn the information over to the local sheriff so he could have checked out Cruz.

I’m a little upset...I just heard Ollie North say the FBI gets tens of thousands of these tips everyday. He seemed really annoyed that we didn’t already know that.

Well, then, just what are we supposed to do??

When they say “See Something, Say Something”, but that doesn’t mean we can do anything about it, so keep it to yourself or send a Priority Mail letter to get some attention.

The next time the authorities offer solutions, who will trust that they really can handle the response.

And I don’t believe that FBI guy who says they could not trace the person who was on YouTube acting like a jackass.

[dirtymac]

FBI ins complicit in this shooting. Allowed to happen to enhance the gun confiscation narrative.

[Interesting Times]

When was the last time we had a mass murderer that the FBI wasn’t already watching?

Perhaps a slightly more proactive approach would be appropriate.

Need to look at the school. I think the school had probable cause to report him to the police as a threat in addition to expelling him and barring him from the school grounds. Probably subject to massive amount of damages when they investigate and find gross negligence during the civil suits.
