I am hoping that the keys were not in the ignition. Talk about bad publicity. I am sure whoever took the vehicle will return it shortly. http://wgntv.com/2017/07/03/fb...e-stolen-in-chicago/ | ||

And the tactical gear and firearms were safeguarded. Sheesh! | |||

I believe in the principle of Due Process |
My guess is that more than one somebody at FBI is in trouble. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

Uh...WRONG! But your subject line is accurate. http://chicago.suntimes.com/ne...n-on-near-west-side/ FBI vehicle containing several firearms stolen on Near West Side: FBI CHICAGO NEWS 07/03/2017, 01:33pm An FBI vehicle containing several firearms and tactical gear was stolen early Monday on the Near West Side, authorities said. About 12:10 a.m., a 32-year-old FBI agent left the 2014 Chevrolet Equinox “momentarily unattended with the engine running” at a service station in the 300 block of South Morgan, according to Chicago Police and FBI spokesman John Althen. A male suspect jumped in the vehicle and sped away, police said. No injuries were reported. Firearms and tactical gear, including a ballistic vest, were inside the vehicle, Althen said; he would not say precisely how many weapons, or what type. The theft was reported to the Chicago Police Department, which is working with the FBI to investigate, Althen said. Anyone with information on the incident should contact the FBI or Chicago Police. | |||

No double standards |
Didn't the FBI get called into Chicago to help solve the crime there?? "Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women. When it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it....While it lies there, it needs no constitution, no law, no court to save it" - Judge Learned Hand, May 1944 | |||

How many times does this have to happen before they learn about that shit? And in shitcago yet!

If that agent is so stupid to leave his car running and unattended at a gas station, he is too stupid to be an FBI agent. I hope he gets fired. God's mercy: NOT getting what we deserve!

I have to agree. That is beyond stupid, it's malicious, willful incompetence. There is no excuse, no extenuating circumstances that would justify leaving the car running - even if it wasn't filled with weapons and tactical gear. “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 just read the update. FBI is not releasing video at this time. I cannot see how this would hurt their investigation. I am more than curious now. | |||

It has nothing to do with their investigation and EVERYTHING to do with trying to keep a tight lid on this with minimal media coverage. As I said in another recent thread regarding FBI incompetence - a fish rots from the head down. “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 hope the Agent is prosecuted, as I would be, for doing the same thing. . | |||
