WTF is going on in this country?

There must be something other than easy access to drive them to use a gun, eh? Efficiency. The same reason Harry has had an assault rifle of some sort for as long as I can remember. Knives and clubs still kill about 2200 a year vs a few hundred for rifles. I engage in the wholesale slaughter of empty beer and soda cans, plastic soda bottles, and paper targets. No kids or crazed right-wing rec.boaters are going to get their hands on my rifles unless they blow up or carry out my 800-pound safe that is through-bolted to concrete. Unless it's a tiny safe, you don't own a safe. Mine is just over 1500lbs. Harry is a high volume dealer but he never has a lot of inventory in his floor plan. A small safe works for him. BTW have you ever seen how long the typical "gun safe" holds up to a determined thief with modern tools? A diamond blade in a $20 Harbor Fright circular saw will slice through the side or back of these things in a few minutes. A regular "metal" cutting carbide blade will defeat most of them. It is noisy and dusty but effective on just about anything but 1/4" armor plate. Most are 16ga up to 12ga steel with some kind of cement board or even fire code drywall between layers. |

You certainly have all the simple-minded nonsense down pat. Actually Cruz was "in treatment" but Hippa laws prevent us really hearing any details and he did not seem to be on the local police radar, although the FBI knew about him from 2 threat reports. I guess they were too busy investigating trump to spend any time alerting local authorities. It was still not enough to flag him in the background check system. So much for those background checks you think will solve all of our problems. The FBI also should have known him from the youtube comment where he used his own name. What gets me is that if a parent takes their kid to the doctor with a bruise and the doc has any suspicion at all that the parent may be responsible for the bruise, the Department of Social Services may be contacted and authorized to take custody of the kid until an investigation is done. If a dog owner leaves a dog locked in a hot car during the summer the dog can be taken for safe keeping and the owner charged with animal cruelty. But if a person demonstrates a violent personality with the potential to cause harm to someone to a shrink or therapist, the shrink or therapist can't say anything. They just prescribe some anti-depressants and schedule another session for next week. It's all about the paycheck. They are not known for positively affecting mental health -- x ----Android NewsGroup Reader---- http://usenet.sinaapp.com/ |

The blogger said the local office of the FBI immediately met with him, took the screen capture of Cruz's post and that's the last he ever heard about it. Until yesterday. Seems there are some problems even in the FBI. Why wasn't he questioned? Why didn't they do something? Maybe if he had tweeted about Putin, Trump and a Russian hooker, they would have been paying more attention. Maybe if you two paid attention, you might have known the FBI said there wasn't any info connected to the blog post that would have allowed the agency to trace the "professional school shooter." He posted using his name. There was info. Maybe it is time we start holding these big media companies responsible for the activities of their users, whether it is people making threats or russian troll farms. They are the ones with the IP addresses of the poster and generally at least one real Email, the one they use to verify the registration. If these comments were really on You tube (Google) they know a whole lot about you. Why wasn't this asked for and shared with the FBI? I would not be surprised if Google has this guy's physical address, browsing habits, purchases he has made and a profile of his friends. The FBI says the blogger in question was a person living in Mississippi who had no connection to the shooter, and spelled his first name differently. The last name, Cruz, is a very common one among the Latino communities. If he told them about the post, they should have started there and escalated through Google. How many times are we going to give the social media company a pass when these guys announce what they are going to do and nobody looks into it? If you ask Google about anything that flows through one of their servers, they have lots of data about it, more than they even want to admit. At the very least they would have the IP address he posted from and all the information he used to register, along with every other thing they sniffed from that information. It would certainly get you to the East coast of Florida, even if he was at an internet cafe. If he was at home, you could just drive over there using directions from google maps. That is particularly true if he posted from a phone. As for what they know, I don't remember the add on I had on my Firefox but it gave you a web that is created from snooping by web sites you visit. I finally took it off because it was slowing my machine down drawing all these links. According to news reports Cruz left the school by running along with the students as if he was escaping from the shooting. He then went to a Walmart and bought a drink at a Safeway. From there he proceeded to a McDonald's where a cop arrested him. Question: How did the cop know that Cruz was the shooter when he found him at McDonalds? Haven't heard any explanation of that. |

Well, then, no reason to buy a safe, eh? Because in your world, nothing can be done about anything. The safe I have uses 11-gauge steel, whatever that is. |

I guess the fbi was thrown off track by the guy posting with his real name. The FBI is really, really busy trying to prove Trump colluded with Puting to win the election. Give 'em a break. |

Yeah, I realized after I posted the question that one or more students involved could have identified him or given a description of him to law enforcement. |
