File under: Islamic State

#1 Memory fades and history is written by the victor(s). As I recall the Garland, TX event was stopped before it started by a single ODP, another ODP working event security was wounded in his ankle, treated and released. SWAT showed up in time to wrap the crime scene with tape.

#2 Skidmark Hendricks affidavit included some curious information.

-Days before an ISIS sympathizer attacked a cartoon contest in Garland, Texas, he received a text from an undercover FBI agent.
“Tear up Texas,” the agent messaged Elton Simpson days before he opened fire at the Draw Muhammad event, according to an affidavit (pdf) filed in federal court Thursday.

“U know what happened in Paris,” Simpson responded. “So that goes without saying… No need to be direct.”

WTF...is the FBI doing? They knew about the Tsarnevs...Mateen...the Youtube video guy (Benghazi)...Simpson... They are as useless as the CIA...just collect actionable info, don't act on it, and then tsk, tsk that they knew it was gonna happen...and in this case actually encourage it with a "tear up Texas" text.

#3 another ODP working event security was wounded in his ankle, treated and released

Ankle wounds can be fatal, y'know - eventually.

S'why it's always good to doubt the media.
