I suspect we would all be disgusted at what they know, and let go, from the political class, yet seem to miss time after time when it come to thwarting people like this latest shooter, not to mention the cartel stuff......
How do you know whether or not they noticed the purchase and decided to just wait for the perp to do his worst so they would have an incident from which to push for semi automatic rifle bans under the misnomer of assault weapon? Once law enforcement is politicized there is no end to the kinds of evil they are capable of doing. If police work for a corrupt state then nobody polices them. Besides such information is easily passed on deliberately under the excuse of "it was lost in the bureaucracy".
How do we know? We don't and can't. But I have little doubt at this point that it may very well have occurred that way. The thread title makes the point that the FBI has been asleep at the switch far too often. Happen once, could be an honest mistake. Twice maybe. Repeatedly, and you have to ask the question.
And when suspicion destroys the trust between the governed and the government then fear and anarchy result. The social contract is broken. And a police state ensues, especially if the people are disarmed.
then what? yeah, we know how this plays out...
there are solid solutions....yet, they're not in play with today's dippos...
w/0 term limits in congress, all I see is mo' bs politicking time bombs...the same applies to the judicial....
don't get me started with lobbyists...
The essential question is why aren't reasonable and solid solutions in play? The only possible answer is that the corporations don't want a solution as they have determined that by goading the public into responses that may be framed by their media as hostile will result in fuller control......hence why white males are under assault. We make up a bulk of people with the means (money and education), motive (dispossession), to best be positioned to respond. Therefore they seek to vilify us so that opposition is quelled while their idiot minions are bought off with trinkets.
So another why is in order. That is a macro economic answer. These mega corporations don't have the money people think they have. Oh they own and control massive industries across many classes of commerce, but they acquired them through leverage based upon their other holdings. It truly is an economic souffle' in which continued uninterrupted trade showing on ledger sheets as revenue exchanges keep the leverage working. They consolidated their efforts against Trump because he threatened significant interruptions to that trade for the overall health of the nation vs what was best for them.
If this had continued these mega corporations would have had to start selling off pieces of their empire to cover the perpetual accounts received from trade. So they pulled off a coup d'etat with help from their trading partners (our enemies) and I wouldn't put it past their greedy evil asses to have been complicit in the pandemic which was key to defeating Trump because his economy was too strong without them.
These are largely soulless people we are talking about who are primarily concerned with image and acquiring more power and wealth. They don't see themselves as Americans but rather as master's of the world.
Vilify white males, refuse to hire them and they are able to silence their dissent, acquire their personal property, and consolidate their control over the resources of the U.S. which they hope to sell off to our enemies to avoid disruptions in trade which might curtail their leverage and cause them to suffer naturally what failure to enforce anti-trust laws has allowed them to accumulate. Lobby has not only been for trade advantages, but specifically to thwart any attempts to enact anti-trust clauses against them.
What the people of this county do not grasp is that we have fundamentally changed with this last election, not so much in process as the control and lobby has been present for decades, but in enforcement. These multi-national corporations now seek to turn the laws and enforcement on the people rather than maintaining the ruse of freedom to cove their hegemony.
If people of all races permit themselves to be manipulated into fighting each other then these bastards will destroy us all! But with public education spreading their propaganda rather than teaching kids to think for themselves we may be screwed already!
People don't ask enough questions about what they are told and they don't think through the motivations of what is currently happening. The motives of who stands to profit and how are the pertinent questions of our age because they also clearly indicate that it is not us, and that in fact, all of us are the victims!
A clarifying point:
Do remember the savings and loan crisis in 2006-8? Derivatives were used and pieces of mortgages were sold off to multiple large banks. That meant that they could borrow against the full value of the mortgage while only holding a fraction of its worth in actuality. Leverage for these corporations works the same way only without someone's mortgage. They get to borrow against their total estimated value, and that value gets overestimated, which allows them to acquire more without necessarily using capital. Their future contracts and revenues can be counted, so they acquire and the total valuation goes up which allows them to acquire even more. Stop trade and that equation starts to flip and their leverage goes down which leads to having to payout, instead of counting inflow and the cascade works against them. They will literally do anything to prevent this.
In the past you all remember failed stores: Grant, Woolworth, KMart, Sears, and other various chains including chain restaurants. As long as you can expand you can build your wealth with leverage, right off future investments against current assets for tax purposes. Hell that's why Walmart went global, they reached a point where further expansion in the U.S. made no sense to anyone. Now they build a new store just down the road from the old one because the taxpayers of the states agree to let them keep the state's portion of sales tax until their overhead (building and grounds) is covered. So when a location is paid for they keep that commercial property which was given them by the state sales tax offset, and build another at our expense. But my point is that as long as they expand the get richer. When they can no longer expand and have to pay taxes on everything they already hold they'll go bust. Put that situation on steroids and you have the major tech giants in understandable terms. They can't expand in the U.S. much more so it has to be overseas. China is the largest market. China is using that market to kill us by the greed of our corporations, the same corporations who pay for both sides of the aisle in D.C. through PAC money.
So we are in a world where multinational global trade is being used to destroy the American way of life rather than augment it.
