Because there are only 51 R's in the Senate now and at least 4 or 5 of those are diehard RINOs. Any replacement would have to be fairly left of center to get confirmed. “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

I'm from the government send I'm here to kill you: The True Human Cost Of Government Negligence. By David T. Hardy Discretionary Function Exception Basically, if an action is or even could have been (though it was not) part of the governmental process, it’s protected. The “discretionary function exception” says, in effect, that the government can do any amount of harm to whomever it wants as long as it falls within an agency’s operational discretion. If they say they can do it, they can do it. Have not read it yet, but will soon. Like guns, Love Sigs | |||

My experience as well. An upside down pyramid organization with only a few worker bees and lots of managers that did nothing. 41 | |||

Here is the actual answer: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...tle_Rock_v._Gonzales The government/FBI/Police have no duty to act or protect. They can't be sued or held responsible for failures. Here's a video of a lawyer explaining the case and the ramifications: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBocDT7eJ80 Here's another example: https://nypost.com/2013/01/27/...-who-subdued-killer/ It is a pile of horse crap but that's the law. Scalia wrote the decision too. All the more reason for people to carry and be prepared to defend themselves. | |||

Ignored facts still exist |
As taxpayers, we pay the paychecks of the FBI. Although nobody in the government ever wants to hear it, they work for us and not the other way around. This point must be emphasized, and must never be forgotten. So, As Taxpayers we expect a certain level of service from the agencies we pay for. When we don't get it, we rightfully expect that those who represent us in government make appropriate changes to government bodies that don't meet expectation, until we get the level of service that we are paying for.
And there is nothing in the constitution saying we have to pay them for doing nothing either. Right now, it seems that some adjustments are necessary.
On this point, I agree 100%. . | |||

No, they did not. In fact the San Bernardino shooter and his Hispanic friend who bought the rifles for him were planning an attack a few years earlier and aborted because the FBI arrested several of their friends who were planning an unrelated attack. | |||

There were two relevant tips re: The Parkland shooter. The YouTube comment was investigated as afar as possible given the comment was deleted, there was no IP info and the general lack of cooperation by Google/YouTube with LE. The second tip, from a family member, was called into the FBI’s Public Access Line. The info was taken and then never passed on to the Miami Field Office. Why it was not passed on IS the subject of a current investigation, whether you are aware of it or not. That second tip was actionable intelligence and the FBI owns that failure the same way the Air Force and the DOD own the failure to enter the Sutherland springs shooter into NICS after his court martial. Not to mention the multiple failures of the Broward County Sheriffs Office and the FL mental health system during the Parkland Shooter’s 39 contacts with local LE and his mental heath evaluation after his suicide attempt. With regard to the pulse shooter, there is a difference between not having enough evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt someone is a threat and affirmatively deciding they “not a threat.” | |||
