Agents with the FBI’s elite evidence response team were delayed in reaching the scene of a mass shooting at Brown University in December because there was no FBI plane available to take them to Rhode Island, according to three sources and a whistleblower’s account newly provided to Congress.
FBI Director Kash Patel was in south Florida at the time with one of the FBI’s two available jets and had given an order to hold the other for another team that would not normally respond to the scene, according to the whistleblower and the sources. The evidence response team instead had to drive through the night amid a snowstorm to reach the university in Providence, Rhode Island, by 9 o’clock the next morning, according to the whistleblower’s account…
An FBI spokesperson told MS NOW Tuesday he disputed the allegation that there were delays because of the director’s travels but said he would check into the matter more deeply to gather information.
Owning a gun was scandalous pre 1880? The previous 80 years had been nonstop violence as people moved to carve out the western half of the country. Also as a means of providing food etc. I’m pretty sure the guns were extremely common.
If you were on the frontier it was expected. If you were trying to carry in towns or cities you’d get arrested.
