These agencies completely failed to prevent every school shooting in the last decade. These are not impressive people.

How would you prevent every school shooting without literally going through everyone's private communications? They're not criminal conspiracies or even planned, they're some guy using a gun to shoot people at a school.

This is America, tons of people are buying ungodly amounts of guns and ammo right now. Only like 0.1% of them will ever shoot up a school (95% of them will just use it on deer and shooting ranges, and 5% will either kill themselves or have it stolen by criminals who will use it for carjackings), and courts will strike down the FBI going after people for buying ammo

What if I told you that the NSA has been doing that for the last 20 years?[0]

They aren't allowed to operate on US soil, and even when they do, they definitely aren't capable of going after individual school shooters

What exactly are these agencies doing if they can't even succeed at stopping the quintessential textbook case of a bad person doing a bad thing?
