It needs to be restructured from the top down.

Never again should the top administrators be able to spy on, threaten or blackmail any president...............................

Absolutely. Even if it’s a president I don’t like, they shouldn’t be able to do this.

In other words, the FIB allowed it to happen. Not surprising. Another corrupt worthless bunch of parasites, like most agencies.

“What exactly does the FBI DO???”

Investigate and put people they don’t like on lists.

Just like all the bureaucracies and police state agencies, they are filled with leftists and statists.

This kind of crap has just happened to damn many times with the FBI this department has become absolutely USELESS, unless of course they are trying to get rid of the ELECTED POTUS!!! I don’t think that 50% of this country has one damn bit of faith or trust in that department!!! It has become absolutely infuriating!!!

Dead men don't need a defense.

I suppose Civil Suits are possible.

Similar to the shooter at Parkland. The FBI knew about him for a long time, but ignored the threat.

And the bombers in Boston who the Russian equivalent of the FBI told the FBI were dangerous likely terrorists.

And Timothy McVeigh who was staying with and talking to FBI informants right before he bombed the Federal building in Oklahoma City.

And of course we shouldn't forget Omar Mateen, whose father apparently had some relation to the FBI.

I am sure there are many, many more instances.

YOUR FBI IS **FINE** ACTING AS AN INSTRUMENT OF POLITICAL TERROR.

That is a very important point. They also have no problem acting as an enforcement arm of organized crime. For years the FBI office in Boston helped Whitey Bulger run a large organized crime operation. They even helped him locate people that Whitey and his gang wanted to murder.

At one point the Boston FBI office framed 4 guys from a rival for gang for a murder the FBI knew they didn't do. Good old Bob Mueller was involved in that one.

Sounds like another one “On their radar” in which the FBI did not follow up on.

Yours is about the only plausible reason for hiding this killers record from the public and from the new-normal of retail background checks.

Private sellers, particularly to unknown buyers, deserve access to the same information any retailer has.

I thought it was just high schoolers whose history is expunged of their threatening obsessions and compulsions, threat record and appeals for help, such as the case of the Parkland killer.

Can’t do anything until he kills ya.

That's the problem looking for a solution.

“Odessa Police dropped the ball.”

After dropping the ball, you’d think the department would make lame excuses to keep the killer’s identity under wraps. Oh, wait...

If Tim McVeigh was fine killing almost 200 people, WHY did he prove so exotically squeamish about the prospect of getting autopsied after his execution..?

Quite mysteriously, he did everything possible to SPEED UP his execution and poured all of his legal energies into making sure that any possibility of getting autopsied was taken off the table:

Isn’t that mysterious..?

And one of the execution witnesses stated she thought McVeigh was still BREATHING —albeit very slowly and shallowly— after “being executed”.

Oh, and there’s the small matter of ALL the surveillance tapes disappearing after civilian contractors copied them (and were even personally escorted to the bathroom all the times they had to “go” during that copying process).

And the wild claim McVeigh he made to his sister:

That during Special Forces training he hand 10 others had been singled out for a special-track OTHER duty, and that he’d be working WITH the government busting “terrorists”.

It’s allllll so strange.

Gosh I WONDER what was going on.

I still stand by my prediction that within a few weeks we will find out that he was a CI or had some other relationship with the local police or FBI.

Here’s a link to one of my prior postings about people “acting up”.

http://freerepublic.com/focus/news/3776098/posts?page=124#124

Having followed the disasters at Ruby Ridge and Waco, as well as the more recent Russia hoax, I’ll not embarrass myself by trying to defend the FBI.

As I suggest in the linked posting, we are inundated today by millions of people “acting up”. That would include people calling agencies with irrational or meaningless complaints. It would not surprise me if agencies like the FBI simply don’t have the resources to address the huge number of cases.

That is not to suggest, however, that nothing can be done. The answer is to have serious consequences for some of the actions today that carry no consequences whatever. There should be painful consequences for attacking a McDonalds’ employee. There should be painful consequences for making official complaints based on fanciful or imaginary problems. There should be serious prison time for an antifa thug who hits somebody with a bike lock.

Only such painful consequences will reduce the number of people “acting up” and allow our institutions to resume some semblance of normalcy.
