FBI investigated alleged Apalachee HS shooter Colt Gray, 14, in 2023 over school shooting threats

Colt Gray, the teen suspected of gunning down four people at Georgia high school, has been on the FBI’s radar since last year — when he was interviewed in connection to online school shooting threats, the bureau revealed.

In May 2023, the FBI’s National Threat Operations Center received several anonymous tips about the threats to commit a school shooting — with the harrowing remarks including photos of guns, according to a Wednesday night statement from the bureau’s Atlanta division.

Sorry, but what was anyone thinking?  The FBI should have spark a local investigation.  Surely, any judge in the right mine would have authorize a search of the residence for evidence of a threat.

Argh!

The parents should be in trouble for “failure to secure” the guns.

If I had a troubled child, then I’d have pulled the firing pins and kept them in my pocket.

Instead of “bang bang”, there would have been “click click”. 

Argh!

Once again the Gooferment fails to protect “We, The Sheeple”.

RANT: Why is Surprise City Attorney being paid 266,000?

Arizona mom arrested for criticizing officials at public meeting sues for rights violation

Eat your heart out, North Korea.

An Arizona mom was arrested for violating a bizarre authoritarian-style city law that forbids anyone from criticizing city officials at public meetings — outraging a free speech group that now plans to sue, officials told The Post.

Rebekah Massie, 32, was speaking out against a proposed $12,000 raise for Surprise City Attorney Robert Wingo — who reportedly already earns $266,000 annually — at a city council meeting on Aug. 20, when she was cut off by Mayor Skip Hall.

*** and ***

It wasn’t immediately clear how Massie could be arrested for trespassing at a meeting that was open to the public.

Surprise Police Chief Benny Pina and Mayor Skip Hall didn’t return calls from The Post Friday.

Sgt. Richard Hernandez, a public information officer for the city, told The Post a person may be charged with trespassing if they are asked by a “police officer or the owner of a property” to leave and refuse.

He said the police chief had not asked Massie to leave the meeting — but declined to elaborate on how the law applies to the incident, considering Mayor Hall doesn’t own Surprise City Hall, where the meeting took place.

*** end quote ***

Governor of Arizona Katie Hobbs. $95,000.

Attorney General of Arizona Kris Mayes. $90,000.

Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes. $70,000.

So why is Surprise City Attorney being paid 266,000?  That’s more than the top THREE state officials. 

And, no now seems to understand that the First Amendment applies to the States under the current Supreme Court concept of “incorporation”!

I’ve often thought that Gooferment salaries were out of line and this just proves it.

If I was an Arizona citizen, then I’d insist that no one can be paid MORE than the Governor.  Just like no one should be paid more than the President of the United States. 

Argh!
