Sorry. But it is too easy and wrong to blame the FBI. The real falt lies with the local authorities and the rules, regulations and restraints they have imposed on themselves dealing with dangerous lunatics. Remember Cruz was visited at least 39 times by local police, had innumerable contact with government social works and educators. None of those interventions, which strenuously respected his rights, were effective or protected the community They never did what needed to be doe. Al were careful to follow the rules and in the end protect themselves from criticism, complaints, lawsuits or loss of job. There were no street smart cops who knew how to handle the situation. If there were, they knew they would not get any support from superiors or politicians if they did what was needed. The FBI? Now we expect a national police agency to handle local problems? The problem is that this culture is conditioned to vent its emotional horror on inanimate objects such as guns rather than the murderous lunatic that was never stopped. Fundamental change needs to occur. People need to examine the politically correct attitudes and policies that handcuffed all those people who dealt with Cruz
You make a very good point.
FBI has a big problem, though. They are front and center every day with office affairs on company time on company phones, contempt for the office of the presidency goes with contempt for US citizens who pay them, spending multi millions on a case that was invented. Losing managers from the top down once a month
They’re seen as not doing their job, at the very least.
We all have to deal with political correctness. Not wanting to get involved for all obvious reasons. The cops might come out relatively sympathetic here, with 39 calls and all. Especially as they seem to have their eyes open to real problems
The FBI has a big problem
They’re running around spying on US citizens war heroes, grilling them until they say “blue...no I meant red! Aaah!”
And some people even see them as an arm to clintonia, bumbling everything since taking over tea 800
But what do I know
What would Cruz have done if he didn’t have access to social media, take out an ad in the Sunday paper?
