Because there's nothing the FBI could have done.

Ranting online isn't something that gets you arrested - you're proof of that.

Even had the FBI followed up perfectly, there is no law barring him from obtaining a firearm and the means to kill 17 people in minutes.

Glad we could have this talk.

For that matter..

Why are they ignoring that the DNC worked with the FBI and the Dept of Justice to create a phony dossier through Fusion GPS? Which they used to fraudulently obtain a fisa warrant to wire tap a campaign competitor. In an effort to help a fake russia probe in order to impeach a duly elected president?

That's like a slap in the american people's face. Even the idiot libs. It says we can do whatever we want and you cannot do anything about it.

All you are is a vote.

There was also a call-in tip about him. Of course, the hotline number receives thousands of calls a day and these calls are probably screened by low level people, so blaming the entirety of the FBI is just shallow stuff, but it doesn’t completely exonerate them for receiving multiple complaints about him with no real follow up afterwards.

It isn’t a good look for their usefulness.

Sorry, didn't realize you were a dumbass. Tell you what, jump on your facebook, and announce to the world that you want to be a professional school shooter, and then come back and let us know who shows up, K? Thanks in advance.

What would real follow-up have done? They go interview him, he presumably passes because he hasn't committed a crime, then he goes to buy a gun and does it anyway.

Point being, our laws are so lax now that there's nothing the FBI could do.

Lazy argument? Why are 30k deaths a year more important to you than half a million?

40k of that half million being innocent victims who don't smoke yet die due to second hand smoke.

Cigarettes aren't protected. They are absolutely horrible for us. And kill half a million people every year. Oh.... And they AREN'T A PROTECTED RIGHT.

So... I ask again, bitchatl. Why are 30k deaths (half of which are suicide) more important to you than half a million deaths. 40k of which are completely innocent victims?

I don’t know if they could have done anything.

Although there are several current cases in which people are in jail for making comments like his on the internet with far less of a criminal background.

They're not, obviously.

So in the same range as gun deaths, yet you won't let the CDC study those. Why are you not concerned about people dying in the streets?

Exactly, they attack the wrong issue. Which is not a shocker

Banning a rifle may or not have meant less fatalities but had school officials, students, law enforcement acted upon the early warnings There would be no story of a shooting in Parkland today.

Because if they want to use the dead bodies as political currency, they have to do it quickly and the FBI thing will distract from that.

Do you really want NOPD as the only line standing between you and criminals in New Orleans?

He bought the gun last February, supposedly, so it may have preceded many of the issues here. That being said, when the FBI was called with a screenshot of his post about being a school shooter, a competent investigation could have done a lot of things.

First, the FBI would have actually identified the frick. Upon doing that, they would have found that he had purchased a rifle, and that police had been called 39 times. Pretty soon, you have means, motive, and mental health issues that could be brought to a judge, no?

The part of the post I was responding to as being a Whataboutism is in bold below:

How did the local authorities do? the ones that were called out 39 times on this cat?

Are these the same local authorities that you want to only allow possession of arms and not the people?
