While I shouldn’t be as irate as I am, I am.

This is only a snippet of all the examples out there. I guess, if you have to justify your existence and you’re too incompetent to do your job, just go ahead and make sh*t up. Notice, I didn’t even mention the murders at Ruby Ridge and Waco, again, two examples of the FBI getting involved in things they have no need to or jurisdiction over.

Just to confirm his background, I found this on Wikipedia:

In 2009, he served as the first director of the High-Value Detainee Interrogation Group, a program to research interrogation techniques that was created after the Department of Defense Directive 2310 ban of waterboarding and other interrogation techniques

So, you’re telling me that they guy who oversaw the “High-Value Detainee Interrogation Group”, was confused during his interview with the OIG? This would be comical if it were’t so disgusting and criminal.

An underlying problem I have with all of this, is the hiring practices of the FBI and most of federal law enforcement. There are men and women, serving locally, that would love to get hired by these agencies. But they cannot. These agencies take a handful, here and there, but for the most part they hire college kids with no experience, when they could be getting some folks with some serious street experience.

One more thing, why does the American taxpayer have to fund absolutely massive training facilities, all over the country? The DOJ uses Quantico, VA for training the FBI and DEA, and I think US Marshals(maybe). Every one else goes to FLETC, in Georgia, which is absolutely massive. Plus, FLETC has smaller facilities spread throughout the country. IN this day and age of saving money and streamlining, why are we paying for all of that?
