#2 35th anniversary of the Miami bank robbery shootout. Coincidence, no doubt, but sunny Florida sure has been hard on the bureau in that respect.

#5 Have the lessons of 1986 been forgotten?

Despite the FBI's obsessive culture of "the Bureau is a family," It would be interesting to know how many agents started their day Tuesday mindful of the '86 shootout anniversary. You'd never get an honest answer now, but I'm going to bet many newer agents were oblivious to it even though it was drilled into their heads at the academy.

#7 When you have bad guys willing to die rather than be arrested or served, all bets are off when it comes to safety. The Sunrise event was totally unexpected and the '86 a bit less so.

#8 My take.

If the FBI had leadership that were focused on their jobs instead of being politically partisan 6 agents would not have been shot. So many things wrong with that 6am knock!
