OMG you may be right. so the counter sniper who had Crooks in his sights and hesitated to shoot did not radio Trump's detail to get him off stage because they had no radios? Its possible.
I think there was communication because Time of India has footage of several Secret Service agents crouching and moving into other positions just before the shots rang out.
If you think this was worse than Uvalde you're grossly mistaken. They didn't have manpower or the right plan to cover a nearby rooftop, but they still neutralized the threat immediately. In Uvalde, they waited hours while small children were murdered. FOH.

It's absolutely insane that the Secret Service director said that she wants a more diverse workforce and to be 30% female by 2030. The ONLY consideration should be "is this hire the best person to protect the person." We shouldn't care about anything else.

Yes, still NBC sort of leave the parts out if want to be a serious journalism media. There are lots of questions than answers for example 24ft. Ladder up on the roof. Did it left there last night or did the shooter carry and walk it with him? What kind of car did he drive with the ladder on? Nothing makes sense.
If you Commander-in-Chief dodges answering any questions, it runs down hill and is hardly surprising that the head of the Secret Service would feel obliged to answer the Press' questions.
That is true. Biden feels no obligation to talk to the public and when he does, he's VERY rude and short-tempered. I don't understand ANYONE who claims Biden is "nicer" than Trump...
There are so many unanswered questions that should be simple to answer. If you look at the photos, there is a very tall ladder behind a tree onto the roof, where did that ladder come from so he could gain access to the roof? Did he walk there with a 24 foot extension ladder and a weapon? If he did how did NO ONE see someone walking with a weapon and large ladder...
@@theredneckhippie1515 I'm certain this was intentional. But who? you ask... The Deep State (yet, that's real, there are indeed unelected powers pulling the strings decade in and decade out) and the Democratic party. Think about it. All capitalist systems become totalitarian states. AND imperialism abroad leads to fascism at home. To transition away from even the illusion of a "free society" requires an inciting incident to inspire enough panic in the proletariat that they will accept "temporary emergency measures" which then become permanent. Freak out the Trump base by "attempting to assassinate him." Then they react in anger and fear toward the Democrats. Both media factions spin "civil war" to inflame the tensions. Democrats in turn also feel like they're under threat, as they've been convinced for 8 years that Trump and his voters are all Hitlers. DNC announces a Biden "win" in November. Everyone knows it's shady AF. Republicans revolt. Democrats claim this is even worse than January 6 (which we know was engineered by the FBI). Authoritarian crackdowns ensue and the country's treatment of the global south becomes domestic policy. None of this was an accident.
Or did he stash the ladder there ahead of time? Supposedly the secret service claims to have swept all of the buildings in the area the day before. Could they have missed seeing the ladder, or saw it and thought nothing of it, or the ladder was placed there after their sweep.
@@jdgoesham5381 Secret Service are cops, same laws , same pay. We like to think they are these special ops, navy SEAL type operators, when they're not. Underpaid, under trained. That's the main problem.

@@johnconner4695 What do you mean? They already identified that rooftop as a potential source of a threat the day before. They could have very easily put someone - even just a local cop - on that rooftop at the very least. And if no one was blocking access to the roof, why weren't any of the counter-snipers keeping an eye on it? You don't have to be a security expert to see this is a colossal failure.
@@TurdF3rguson there was two USSS counter sniper teams. Because you surveyed it doesn’t mean shit. You’re looking for potential positions. You don’t understand the manning and how short it is for the “they could have put someone there” argument. One there was another elevated position facing directly in front of Trump which might have taken priority. Two they are looking at far out threats. Three there was local law enforcement there as he rushed the shooter to take the shot when he went up the ladder. Forth the USSS isn’t god nor is any agency that most you and others seem to think everything is locked down. Why was the two man counter sniper team not looking that way? Hmm maybe because of a priority threat or protocol of how the brief for that days threat assessment or assignment of positions was. So easy in hindsight to think why didn’t they do this. Turns out actually you do need so experience or background to even comment off this. There are many more reasons to why. So easy to backseat quarterback about this when you have no experience in the operations.
"law enforcement not trained to deal with that high-stress situation". Give me a break. This is the same rationalization that attempted to excuse the uvalde leo response.
People who think this is all a big conspiracy need to work for a big ass company or a part of the military. Ever worked and wondered how the hell are you surrounded by that many incompetent people? And also feel that if you report what is going on, you will get reprimanded or even lose your job?
This is certainly true and the saying "scum floats to the top" is what I've seen. However, this incompetence seems so mind boggling, that you can't rule out a possible conspiracy.
i was at a random 4th of july fair that had drones in the air at all times and a manned surveillance trailer with cameras everywhere jacked up 20 feet in the air. seems impossible that they couldn't see this coming.
@@orazor777 care to elaborate? The security sniper had his gun pointed at the gunman for over a minute and didn’t fire til after the gunman started shooting. What does that have to do with DEI? Are you saying he was a woke sniper? 🤡
The claim that incompetence led to the Secret Service failure to secure rooftops with direct line of sight to the podium is to ignore the possibility of hidden intent or motive.
When evidence other than circumstancial comes out - then we can start pointing fingers at a wider conspiracy, but otherwise it's just conjecture. Here's a question: If it's a wider plot - why is the triggerman some pasty 20 yr old with his poppy's rifle? Why wouldn't he disguise himself as police on that roof? The most Spirit Halloween-brand cop costume would've bought him enough time to let a couple accurate shots off. My point is - if it was a conspiracy, why was it such an incompetent conspiracy? Oswald was at at least a marksman.
Exactly. Not securing the site is a red flag. Secondly, the whole timing of the attempt and then the elimination of the "threat" was utterly perfect. Oswald had almost 2 days before that loose end was tied up. In this case, it was tied up in mere seconds. Truly hard to believe the police snipes could have reacted so fast unless they were already pointing in that direction before the attempt....then why didn't they see him? Thirdly, The perp had no social media foot print? Please, this is probably the most ridiculous part of the whole scenario.
Both and - incompetence can be cultivated by the malicious in who are conveniently ready when tragedy inevitably stikes. See Maui. Who knows if it's one or the other or both yet but it's wild that this was allowed to happen.
@@claireberg4793 That's what I've been wondering but I haven't found the answer anywhere yet. It certainly looks like the type of building that might have a ladder affixed to it.
Buddy, it was a couple of white dudes as the snipers. Stop trying to turn everything into some anti DEI and LGBTQ propaganda. The majority of the cops in that area were also white dudes that didn't identify as anything more than just law enforcement.
To be fair, if this cop was at the top of the ladder when faced with this individual, the officer would be in an extremely vulnerable position with limited options for engagement.
@@MutedGrowl listen, in all seriousness, that cop didn't have a chance. Everyone and their mother would have done the same thing. Myself included. Trying to put this on that cop is like trying to put a Superbowl loss all on the shoulders of the kicker with a 58 yard attempt in the last few seconds. That's bs. Meaning, the whole team lost. They had 4 quarters to win. So many balls were dropped that day that there is plenty of blame to go around.
It sounds to me like someone KNEW about it and CHOSE to do NOTHING It's also sounds to ME like it was PROBABLY PLANNED well in advance, and that it was an INSIDE job
slippery slope of a theory.. let's go with they "let this happen"... what did they let happen exactly, the missed attempt? Because when "deep state" plays the game, they don't miss. So now, we're looking at a "missed attempt" as the allowed event, no?
Seriously why isn't anyone questioning the ladder?? There is NO WAY this kid pulls up, carries a ladder AND rifle to the building without being seen. I can believe hiding a rifle in your pants, but the ladder HAD TO BE PLANTED......
Kimberly Cheatle took directorship of US Secret Service in 2022 . She was security the Senior Director in Global Security at PepsiCo before that . Pepsi report card: 2020 Ransomware Attack: Disrupted PepsiCo's operations, highlighting IT vulnerabilities and the growing ransomware threat (Food Manufacturing) (Food Manufacturing). January 2023 Data Breach discovred in Pepsi Bottling Ventures breached, compromising personal information (names, addresses, financial details, Social Security numbers, health info) (SecurityWeek). No major issue since she left Pepsi and went to US Secret Service. Q.E.D. End DEI insanity. Next problem? Consider this: an untrained child was able to accomplish this. Imagine the potential damage if a skilled operative from a foreign power were involved. It's clear that the leadership in the Democratic Party is incompetent and untrustworthy. As JFK said, "scatter them to the four winds." We should do the same with the Secret Service. Alternatively, each party could be independently funded to select their own Secret Service personnel.
I'm not so sure about that. Imagine that you're a 5'2" woman who weighs 250 LBS. It's a hot summer day and your make-up is starting to come off because you're sweating. Are you REALLY going to check every single building? I think not! especially if you're on your period and your pad is almost full.
@@Windrake101 that's certainly possible. I think it may have been a combination of the two. Inform as few people as possible with the orders, while loading his detail with incompetence
I'm a 5'7 athletic man who is stronger than guys much larger than I am, but even I wouldn't expect to ever be in a Secret Service role guarding the former President of the United States. Massive 6'5 mountains are what I would expect to be guarding him. I could drive though! 😅
You don't need to be big and strong to protect the president. They use guns not muscles. That said, I watched one woman unable to holster her weapon so she just gave up and awkwardly held it in front of her after it happened. At the very least you'd think these women have a hell of a shot, but if u can't even holster your weapon I don't think that to be true in this case
They are not connected. Secret Service operates on a protected frequency, that they don't share, so no one can listen in. So the officer has to physically go to an agent, he is informing his supervisor, who informs control - which is the main control center and they inform the personal protection detail leader at the stage who has to decide to pull Trump or let him stay.
1963 was their biggest fumble. In Lincoln's time it was nonexistent, with only a small garrison of Union troops at the White House who were more chaperons than protectors. The history of failure and fumbles is sadly unsurprising.
This was their biggest fumble. At least in 63 people didn't know the risks as much and they went through an area with multiple security risks. They had 2 points here and didn't secure 1 of them.
@@geneanthony3421this is bigger. Prior to Kennedy. Open top motorcades weren’t exactly rare, and downtown Dallas was a lot harder to secure compared to one factory in a rural area
The shooter was from out of town, not a local, but yet he somehow knew or was “just lucky” enough to be able to drive directly to one of the buildings just outside the official security perimeter, that just happened to not be guarded or have any security officers on top of it, that just happened to have a ladder up against it to provide access to the roof and was able to make his way up there….in view of multiple witnesses all trying to get the attention of authorities and STILL manage to have time to get off three or more shots at Trump….. Sorry, not buying it. You don’t have to have a background in security or law enforcement to know that all elevated areas with a clear line of sight to the president should have been either crawling with security teams on top of them, around them and barricading to discourage anyone even getting near them. How did this guy KNOW to go to that building? How did he KNOW it would not have anyone on top of it? How die he KNOW there would be a ladder for access so handy? Somebody had to have provided that info…. WHO had that info and authority to make sure everything was so convenient and easy for the shooter.
sir, the federal government along with the sheep public would really like it if you stopped asking logical questions. You can rely on the MSM to give you what "you need to know"
In fairness to the Secret Service, there were many, many agents on the ground in Butler who did their jobs and performed them well. This was not a failure of the rank-and-file agents on the ground. This was a failure of the Secret Service leadership on the ground, and the Secret Service leadership in Washington, DC. The failure to have security personnel on the nearby and obvious line-of-sight building rooftop falls on the Secret Service detail leadership, not local law enforcement. At a bare minimum, the senior agent-in-charge was responsible for ensuring that a local law enforcement officer was assigned to the building rooftop. As for the Secret Service leadership in DC, the politically tainted leadership changes in recent years are well known -- there has been far more concern about diversity of leadership than competence of leadership. As a result of these fundamental failures, one American is dead, three were critically wounded, a former American president was wounded, and the American presidential campaigns have been thrown into turmoil.
I want to hear more about how a really tall ladder was allowed to be staged right where a perfect stranger could utilize it. No ladder=no random person on the roof.
Having a bad culture becomes self perpetuating. I worked for a corporation w a bad culture in the IT dept and I left because I knew it was only a matter of time before there was a security breach. There was a security breach only a few months after I left. When you start ignoring the best and brightest folks they start leaving and it leads to a chain reaction of the only the “yes men” hanging around with all the same blind spots as management.
They want you to think it's incompetency, do you guys seriously believe this or just not want to suggest otherwise in your position? This feels like cover that provides reasonable doubt for people who dont want to look at the specific details of the situation

Are you blaming Trump for this? It is the left, the violent, riotous left, who called Trump Hitler, a threat to democracy, a dictator, an existential threat. That is why this happened. This poor kid saw himself as a hero saving the nation is my guess.
Why were 2 gov snipers side by side on the same roof? They were both looking the same direction. One of them should have been on a different observation point. Were they having dinner together?
Yep, I think they do need to realize that not only are loners like me not particularly easily found online, but these sorts of initiatives that use quasi-constitutional methods of gathering intelligence just make us more and more wary. I'm not personally interested in engaging in any criminal activities, so I do have some presence. But just using different names on different sites makes collection more complicated, especially if you're using an offshore VPN or tor for any actual posting. For each individual like this that does actually plan on doing it, there's probably hundreds of others that are just private people that keep to themselves. Having to correlate all those accounts together in order to figure out which ones are and are not threats is always going to be expensive and time-consuming. There's a reason why so many of these sorts are "loners" and "quiet" and seemed "a bit odd" and "harmless" it's because the folks that don't are high enough profile to be prevented from doing it in the first place. And simply being a bit odd and quiet isn't itself a crime.
Before the Kennedy Assassination, which Oswald did NOT commit, Robert Kennedy was working to have Special Forces Soldiers, Green Berets, to be trained up to take over the Presidential Protection Mission. In retrospect that was and is the best choice, professional elite Soldiers instead of bureaucratics.
This doesn't feel like "negligence" but more of a deliberate "mishap"!! They made basic errors from not clearing roofs at such proximity to not reacting quickly to disarm the threat as soon as bystanders alerted..et , I mean how the hell did the shooter get up there in the first place ??? surely it was surrounded by heavy police, didn't they see a guy climbing up with rifle??! this doesn't make sense at all
The current head of the SS said diversity and inclusion (DEI) was her priority. We can saw the results of this "priority" this weekend. Before someone pitches a fit about that. In the past, when it primarily male, they have been known to hire prostitutes when traveling aboard with the President or VP and having parties. The Secrete Service needs: 1. A real leader 2. A lot of oversight 3. Some dripline and to be held accountable. As a side note. Since RFK Jr. is a viable candidates when will he get some protection or does the DNC want him knocked off so he can't take votes away from Biden?
The culture of incompetence isn't limited to the secret service. The government officials themselves are the image of incompetence. Then there's law enforcement, military, who aren't that much better either.
8:55 “counter sniper did not need approval” - sounds like a planted leak to protect leadership and throw the sniper under the bus. If anyone knows of confirmation for this policy from agents… would be helpful.

If you Commander-in-Chief dodges answering any questions, it runs down hill and is hardly surprising that the head of the Secret Service would feel obliged to answer the Press' questions.
That is true. Biden feels no obligation to talk to the public and when he does, he's VERY rude and short-tempered. I don't understand ANYONE who claims Biden is "nicer" than Trump...
There are so many unanswered questions that should be simple to answer. If you look at the photos, there is a very tall ladder behind a tree onto the roof, where did that ladder come from so he could gain access to the roof? Did he walk there with a 24 foot extension ladder and a weapon? If he did how did NO ONE see someone walking with a weapon and large ladder...
Nothing makes sense without slipping right into conspiracyville..... and I think that's where this belongs.
Good point
@@theredneckhippie1515 I'm certain this was intentional. But who? you ask... The Deep State (yet, that's real, there are indeed unelected powers pulling the strings decade in and decade out) and the Democratic party. Think about it. All capitalist systems become totalitarian states. AND imperialism abroad leads to fascism at home. To transition away from even the illusion of a "free society" requires an inciting incident to inspire enough panic in the proletariat that they will accept "temporary emergency measures" which then become permanent. Freak out the Trump base by "attempting to assassinate him." Then they react in anger and fear toward the Democrats. Both media factions spin "civil war" to inflame the tensions. Democrats in turn also feel like they're under threat, as they've been convinced for 8 years that Trump and his voters are all Hitlers. DNC announces a Biden "win" in November. Everyone knows it's shady AF. Republicans revolt. Democrats claim this is even worse than January 6 (which we know was engineered by the FBI). Authoritarian crackdowns ensue and the country's treatment of the global south becomes domestic policy. None of this was an accident.
Look up Jonathan Willis.
Or did he stash the ladder there ahead of time? Supposedly the secret service claims to have swept all of the buildings in the area the day before. Could they have missed seeing the ladder, or saw it and thought nothing of it, or the ladder was placed there after their sweep.
The officer did EXACTLY as he was trained. He went home. Officer safety first. Duty second
That's regular cops not Secret Service.

@@johnconner4695 What do you mean? They already identified that rooftop as a potential source of a threat the day before. They could have very easily put someone - even just a local cop - on that rooftop at the very least. And if no one was blocking access to the roof, why weren't any of the counter-snipers keeping an eye on it? You don't have to be a security expert to see this is a colossal failure.
@@TurdF3rguson there was two USSS counter sniper teams. Because you surveyed it doesn’t mean shit. You’re looking for potential positions.
You don’t understand the manning and how short it is for the “they could have put someone there” argument. One there was another elevated position facing directly in front of Trump which might have taken priority. Two they are looking at far out threats. Three there was local law enforcement there as he rushed the shooter to take the shot when he went up the ladder. Forth the USSS isn’t god nor is any agency that most you and others seem to think everything is locked down.
Why was the two man counter sniper team not looking that way? Hmm maybe because of a priority threat or protocol of how the brief for that days threat assessment or assignment of positions was. So easy in hindsight to think why didn’t they do this.
Turns out actually you do need so experience or background to even comment off this. There are many more reasons to why. So easy to backseat quarterback about this when you have no experience in the operations.

@@orazor777 care to elaborate?
The claim that incompetence led to the Secret Service failure to secure rooftops with direct line of sight to the podium is to ignore the possibility of hidden intent or motive.
When evidence other than circumstancial comes out - then we can start pointing fingers at a wider conspiracy, but otherwise it's just conjecture.
Here's a question: If it's a wider plot - why is the triggerman some pasty 20 yr old with his poppy's rifle? Why wouldn't he disguise himself as police on that roof? The most Spirit Halloween-brand cop costume would've bought him enough time to let a couple accurate shots off.
My point is - if it was a conspiracy, why was it such an incompetent conspiracy? Oswald was at at least a marksman.
That’s precisely Ken’s purpose, to distract, and BP falls for it every dang time
Agreed, it’s a narrative someone would spread to help cover a hidden intent or motive
@@truthstarved 🙄not everything's a conspiracy...
Also, it was totally staged anyway.
Exactly. Not securing the site is a red flag. Secondly, the whole timing of the attempt and then the elimination of the "threat" was utterly perfect. Oswald had almost 2 days before that loose end was tied up. In this case, it was tied up in mere seconds. Truly hard to believe the police snipes could have reacted so fast unless they were already pointing in that direction before the attempt....then why didn't they see him? Thirdly, The perp had no social media foot print? Please, this is probably the most ridiculous part of the whole scenario.
It's widely accepted that since the secret service was moved from Treasury to Homeland Security, it's been a disaster.
It's genuinely difficult to completely discard the theory of basic incompetence. The expression good enough for government work exists for a reason
Both and - incompetence can be cultivated by the malicious in who are conveniently ready when tragedy inevitably stikes. See Maui. Who knows if it's one or the other or both yet but it's wild that this was allowed to happen.
If you continue to allow incompetence to exist, it's malice.
@@TheMattTrakker No, it's incomptence overseeing incompetence.

Yup, Uvalde happened and multiple agencies failed.
I mean, look what happened on November 22, 1963. Says it all
the deep state used to be competent with that sort of thing and now they're not. sad!
This might be worse. Downtown Dallas was impractical to cover. This was one building in a very rural area that should have been easy to secure.
Its painfully obvious this wasnt incompetence. They let him get to a sniper position and even take shots. Insane
Theres a structural pressure for incompetence in most security jobs. Having nothing happen in 999 out of 1000 events, really gets people into a lull.

Competency is no longer rewarded in this country. One's goofy and irrelevant identity and appearance is what gets anyone anywhere these days.

@@JahRootsRadioIs that why your channel failed?
Local cop took off and yelled "watch out! There's a guy with a rifle! Call the police."
To be fair, if this cop was at the top of the ladder when faced with this individual, the officer would be in an extremely vulnerable position with limited options for engagement.
@@MutedGrowl listen, in all seriousness, that cop didn't have a chance. Everyone and their mother would have done the same thing. Myself included.

Consider this: an untrained child was able to accomplish this. Imagine the potential damage if a skilled operative from a foreign power were involved. It's clear that the leadership in the Democratic Party is incompetent and untrustworthy. As JFK said, "scatter them to the four winds." We should do the same with the Secret Service. Alternatively, each party could be independently funded to select their own Secret Service personnel.
I remember when Ken Klippenstein exposed David Grusch's PTSD in an attempt to unfairly discredit him after the UAP hearing
Ken is a Dem operative. Always was and still is.

@@M98747 No you are not stronger than guys much larger than you
You don't need to be big and strong to protect the president. They use guns not muscles.

At the very least you'd think these women have a hell of a shot, but if u can't even holster your weapon I don't think that to be true in this case
@sbarter Actually, size does matter because Secret Service are supposed to use their bodies as shields.
Why didn't the local law enforcement get on his walkie and tell secret service
They are not connected. Secret Service operates on a protected frequency, that they don't share, so no one can listen in. So the officer has to physically go to an agent, he is informing his supervisor, who informs control - which is the main control center and they inform the personal protection detail leader at the stage who has to decide to pull Trump or let him stay.
Let it happen on purpose is moving up on the probability scale.
"A well-known priority"? Did we secure that roof? No worries, it's well-known
This was allowed to happen. It can’t be simply dismissed as incompetence or a mistake.

1963 was their biggest fumble. In Lincoln's time it was nonexistent, with only a small garrison of Union troops at the White House who were more chaperons than protectors. The history of failure and fumbles is sadly unsurprising.
This was their biggest fumble. At least in 63 people didn't know the risks as much and they went through an area with multiple security risks. They had 2 points here and didn't secure 1 of them.
@@geneanthony3421this is bigger. Prior to Kennedy. Open top motorcades weren’t exactly rare, and downtown Dallas was a lot harder to secure compared to one factory in a rural area

Failure results in promotions and budget increases.
The shooter was from out of town, not a local, but yet he somehow knew or was “just lucky” enough to be able to drive directly to one of the buildings just outside the official security perimeter, that just happened to not be guarded or have any security officers on top of it, that just happened to have a ladder up against it to provide access to the roof and was able to make his way up there….in view of multiple witnesses all trying to get the attention of authorities and STILL manage to have time to get off three or more shots at Trump….. Sorry, not buying it. You don’t have to have a background in security or law enforcement to know that all elevated areas with a clear line of sight to the president should have been either crawling with security teams on top of them, around them and barricading to discourage anyone even getting near them. How did this guy KNOW to go to that building? How did he KNOW it would not have anyone on top of it? How die he KNOW there would be a ladder for access so handy? Somebody had to have provided that info…. WHO had that info and authority to make sure everything was so convenient and easy for the shooter.
Precisely
This is what you would expect the “security expert” to be saying. Instead, they brought on a deep state contributor. Disappointing for BP.

@@jonathanjoestar1938 true. Unless you work really hard to avoid it and weed it out it is guaranteed to be an issue
In fairness to the Secret Service, there were many, many agents on the ground in Butler who did their jobs and performed them well. This was not a failure of the rank-and-file agents on the ground. This was a failure of the Secret Service leadership on the ground, and the Secret Service leadership in Washington, DC. The failure to have security personnel on the nearby and obvious line-of-sight building rooftop falls on the Secret Service detail leadership, not local law enforcement. At a bare minimum, the senior agent-in-charge was responsible for ensuring that a local law enforcement officer was assigned to the building rooftop. As for the Secret Service leadership in DC, the politically tainted leadership changes in recent years are well known -- there has been far more concern about diversity of leadership than competence of leadership. As a result of these fundamental failures, one American is dead, three were critically wounded, a former American president was wounded, and the American presidential campaigns have been thrown into turmoil.

I want to hear more about how a really tall ladder was allowed to be staged right where a perfect stranger could utilize it. No ladder=no random person on the roof.
They allowed this to happen!!!
Having a bad culture becomes self perpetuating. I worked for a corporation w a bad culture in the IT dept and I left because I knew it was only a matter of time before there was a security breach. There was a security breach only a few months after I left. When you start ignoring the best and brightest folks they start leaving and it leads to a chain reaction of the only the “yes men” hanging around with all the same blind spots as management.
I suppose incompetence is a preferred determination than complicity!

Yep, I think they do need to realize that not only are loners like me not particularly easily found online, but these sorts of initiatives that use quasi-constitutional methods of gathering intelligence just make us more and more wary. I'm not personally interested in engaging in any criminal activities, so I do have some presence. But just using different names on different sites makes collection more complicated, especially if you're using an offshore VPN or tor for any actual posting. For each individual like this that does actually plan on doing it, there's probably hundreds of others that are just private people that keep to themselves. Having to correlate all those accounts together in order to figure out which ones are and are not threats is always going to be expensive and time-consuming.
There's a reason why so many of these sorts are "loners" and "quiet" and seemed "a bit odd" and "harmless" it's because the folks that don't are high enough profile to be prevented from doing it in the first place. And simply being a bit odd and quiet isn't itself a crime.
Before the Kennedy Assassination, which Oswald did NOT commit, Robert Kennedy was working to have Special Forces Soldiers, Green Berets, to be trained up to take over the Presidential Protection Mission. In retrospect that was and is the best choice, professional elite Soldiers instead of bureaucratics.
