Another school shooting. Florida High School.

So what we are really saying with the "They were notified and should have done something" is that we think that internet threats need to be elevated to criminal. Where you can be arrested for threats, real or perceived, that are made over digital media.

There is no elevation involved. A threat is a threat, whether it is made in person, to/through a third party, or by written, audio, or video means. The method of communicating a threat is not the issue.
 
Ok, so then we go back to "Lets grow the FBI by a number large enough to handle the massive amounts of calls they get daily, pour more funding into the NSA so they can catch any threats posted on social media of any form, and then a large enough field force to send out agents to the house of every person that is deemed to have "communicated a threat".
 
No. You make them send you a picture of the guy.

Back in my day, one look at any of these digits and you'd say that kid is f'n crazy.

Ok, so someone "looks" crazy, so now we incarcerate them.
 
And again, fellas, devils advocate here...but you have to see the circular logic

We want to shrink the government
But we want them checking out all of these threats
To do that we have to grow the government
But we don't want to grow the government
But we want them checking out all of these threats
Ok, so we grow the federal government
No, we don't want them to grow, just get better
Ok, so we need to enhance their ability to monitor us
No, we don't want them to be spying on us

Well, Ima whoop you ass probably doesnt get much attention and nearly rightfully so.

But, Ima shoot this school, mall, movie theater up should demand at minimum a personal visit from some seroius folks.

Again, I totally agree with you. And I feel that it will now be taken FAR more seriously than it has in the past.
 
When the typical politician meets with a group, it usually means the politician is indicating agreement with the group's agenda.

When Trump meets with a group, it means he will listen to the group. The media is absolutely appalled that Trump can meet with a group and then disagree with the group.


i just dont see any good coming from it

one - im not completely sold on his committment to gun rights in first place.
two - hes not articulate or well versed in the issue
three - the media/washinton/notmypresident people will pounce on anything he says that is even slightly off
four - it will do nothing to sway those suffering from trump derangement syndrome, or the antigunners anyway- i only see it being used to fuel anti-trump rhetoric. with all the "feels" in the room - any amount of rational thought or truth is irrelevant.

that worries me too - to the point that any photo of a student within three feet of a gun begins a witchhunt. my kid shouldnt have to hide that she went to the gun range this weekend, or she got a heirloom rifle for xmas, or any other number of situations that cause a knee jerk reaction from the hoplophobes.

And this would be why you dont put every aspect of ones life online.

she doesnt - neither of us facebook, instagram etc - but she does have photos on her phone. this and the old ncgo site are as close i come to putting my life online as well.

the point is she shouldnt HAVE to hide it. she isnt doing anything wrong. shes supposed to accept everyone else regardless of their morality, life choices, preference etc -all in the name of diversity and inclusion - but she has be a closet marksman? she has hide the fact she supports the 2a or has her own ar15?

the media has had a field day with the photos of florida shooter - but that could just as easily be any of us. how many on this forum enthusiastically post a new purchase, or proudly display a collection etc? there is nothing wrong with that and we shouldnt enable the antigunners hysteria.
 
Since when does “Booger wouldn’t let them date their daughter” qualify as a felony?

Well, your reply's don't indicate a personal release from profiling. Rather, they come across as all profiling is bad, unfair and against rights and such.
 
I believe the current crime that fits would be “communicating a threat”.

Just a tidbit from google search
http://www.ludlumlawfirm.com/2017/07/26/communicating-threats-consequences/

It still has to be a direct threat. So I'm gonna be a school shooter wouldn't fit that charge, but would maybe fit a terroristic threat charge.
Even a third party threat has to be direct so if some tell me I'm gonna beat Johnny up. It's not a direct threat. It would have to be hey Paul you tell Johnny im going to beat his ass.

I am not speaking for, nor against profiling. What I am calling out is that you cant have the enhanced profiling that many people want without bloating the federal government and law enforcement agencies. And in your case of "He looks crazy" have you been to one of the BBQs here? Half yall look crazy the other half look like you want to be crazy...and Im right there in it.

Now hold on.
This might just be a viable question for the new 4473,.... Would Booger allow you to date his daughter...................................................[] Y [] N

None o'yall would ever squeeze a new trigger again. Well, maybe QBall...and he is married and about 40 years too old.
 
Any one of those freaks came to my house to date my daughter felony would have been committed. Freaks around my daughters have been known to get their head swoled up.:D

Wooooo, right there. A swollen head with a daughter could have an entirely different meaning. Take that potty mouth to tortuga!
 
Unfortunate the FBI did not pass the initial top to local authorities to follow up. School administration was aware of this student.
 
Ok so, if you were s parent of a kid or rather a teacher at the school, could you sue the School district and the state for infringing upon your Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms to defend yourself? Just curious if they had been done after any of these school shootings.

Serious question. Seeing as how terrorism had a specific definition involving being for the purpose of political ends which I assume is a legal definition, could it still be considered terrorism?

Interesting question. On the surface it would be easy yo argue that you've been harmed and hence should have standing to sue. At the same time, I would bet that it could be argued that schools being easy victim zones had already been upheld, if by no other reason than Scalia declaring them an example of a "sensitive place" in Heller.[/QUOTE]

The Feds botch this for whatever reason. A threat like that should have been acted on. Also we need to bring back Capitol Punishment and quit screwing around then some of these thugs would start thinking twice about committing crimes.

Hang there tails on a gallows at the town square for the community to watch.

Can I get an amen.

Amen. I said as much in a ham radio conversation yesterday evening. Bring back hangings on the courthouse steps at high noon.
 
What double irritates me from the left is this:

The police are a corrupt group who are agents of Trumps racist agenda, are racists, and are part of a Nazi tyranny that we are all suffering. And the military is just full of ignorant rednecks who like to kill babies all over the world and are good for nothing.

Also liberals

We need to have the police go around and round up all of the firearms from everyone so that only the police have firearms because they are the only ones qualified to use them. And only members of our military have the proper training and knowledge to use these weapons of mass death and destruction.

Make up your minds.

People today are not scared of electrocution or gas chamber, no longer used today. They pump them up with lethal drugs. Yawn.
People are scared to death of drowning and burning to death.
Place the convicted inside an industrial vacuum chamber, close the hatch and press that big red button WOOSH WOOSH.
Instant vacuum packaged convict, no muss no fuss, harvest their organs prior to vacuuming if they are healthy.
Live stream it on the web and TV news programs. Yes I am one sick puppy.

For those who do not receive death, consecutive sentences, no concurrent, why bother to charge a criminal with a dozen crimes
when he will plea deal them down from years to months and then get out early on time served before trial starts?
California gives a person Two Fer credit for each day in jail as they wait for the trial, that ILLEGAL ALIEN who fired the gun
that killed the woman on the pier is done with prison in CA but is on hold in club fed for immigration charges.

The only thing unfortunate about the tip not being passed on to local authorities is that the FBI has no excuse for dropping the ball. The Broward County Sheriff's Office had 36 chances to deal with the shooter during 911 calls to his house and did nothing; passed down information about a post on the internet is unlikely to have triggered an aggressive response by the SO.

What good would that do? We have no standards now so there can be no crazy. Kill babies. Good. Girls are boys. Good. Boys are girls. Good. Boys and girls are something in between. Good. "It depends on the definition of is". Yep. Oral sex is not sex. Truth. All cultures and beliefs are equal. Yep. Truth is dead, standards are dead and so is our traditional culture. So who is crazy? I can tell you who will eventually end up in mental hospitals. People that don't fight global warming. People that are religious. People that believe in God. People that aren't 'tolerant'.

If we build mental hospitals we build our future prisons.

It's all good points but we have went from facilities to evaluate people to beds in the ER. If all of the current systems could be shared with less hippa crap it would be better.
