[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did this guy in the mac truck do a lot of weird ranting on facebook before he drove that truck through the crowd?  Did the 911 plane hijackers post hateful diatribes on social media before they boarded those planes?

I don't know that these terrorists always do that.

Why does it always have to be always? No one is always going to do something. You go after an array of behaviors and possibilities. He was according to reports known to police. There's a flag. [/quote]

No it doesn't have to be always.  And, yes, I wish that there was a better way of determining who is/is not a legitimate threat.  But right now there are so many "regular" people posting ugly rants on social media that I don't know that it is possible to haul them all in for questioning.

I wish people would be a little more mindful of what they say so that these terrorists would stand out a little bit more.  As it is, the authorities are left trying to determine well is this a run of the mill cashew or one of those more threatening pecans...[/quote]

I think rants like nidal Hassan, the Orlando guy, the guys in VA stand out. If we need to update our laws to deal with people who rant like that so be it. There are many things in America that if you say it have criminal and /or other repercussions. And maybe we should have more - like it invites  surveillance.[/quote]
