'Known Wolf': FBI Was Warned About Iowa Trans Shooter (Again)

Guess what these mass shooters all have in common: Robert Card of Maine, Brandon Scott Hole at FedEx in Indiana, Francisco Oropesa of Texas, Salvador Ramos from Uvalde, and Nikolas Cruz from Parkland?
All of them had increasingly violent behavior prior to committing their crimes and/or law enforcement was aware of or warned about them. And yet nothing was done.
And we can add another name to that list: Dylan Butler.
Butler, 17, shot and killed 11-year-old Ahmir Jolliff and injured four other students and three staff at Perry High School in Iowa.
And, lo and behold, Butler was not only an LGBTQ/trans activist he was known to law enforcement and posted about his plans on social media. The Discord server was reported to the FBI by a user in November but the FBI didn't get back in touch.
Libs of TikTok (@libsoftiktok) ~ BREAKING: The FBI was warned about the trans Iowa shooter before the shooting. He had been posting disturbing messages on Discord and someone reported it to the FBI. The FBI never responded.
As I reported, 2 years ago he was already posting alarming messages about being a school shooter.
From The Daily Mail:
Hours before the shooting, the gunman posted a TikTok posing in what appeared to be the school bathroom, with the caption: 'Now we wait.'
The video was accompanied by the song 'Stray Bullet' by KMFDM, the same song used on the website of one of the shooters of the notorious Columbine High School massacre.
The Discord account also appeared to post about the shooting moments before Butler opened fire.
'I'm f*****g nervous, I'm the bathroom gearing up,' the user wrote, according to screenshots seen by the outlet.
'There's a n****r in the bathroom, I need him to leave so I can assemble my guns' the account wrote two minutes later.
'The user was also part of a chatroom dedicated to discussing school shootings called "School Massacres Discussion,"' a Discord user who saw the user in the chat told NBC.
The Discord user said they had flagged the chatroom to the FBI in November, after which an FBI agent reached out over email and asked for more information.
The user emailed the FBI agent screenshots of the server but did not hear back. The chatroom was closed before the shooting.
So once again, there was nothing done.
But give up your guns, law-abiding citizens.
Clint (@pack_rulz1978 ) ~ They are literally ignoring things like this on purpose. The final goal is to get gun control passed.
That's the endgame here.
Dan Goldwasser (@dgoldwas) ~ Ah, another "known wolf."
Another one.
Rae A (@xrae) ~ Oh no way ... who could've foreseen this except everyone.
Everyone saw this. There's clearly a pattern here.
Muad'dib (@Patrick_M_Jones) ~
Exactly this.
Loren (@SDCLoren) ~ At this point, if a mass shooter wasn't known to the FBI, it would be a stunner.
This would be a stunner. Which is sad.
sandy (@3Sandy7_) ~ FBI is useless. 🤨
They have their priorities, and they've made them very clear.
Nan "Devalue the Degree" Hayworth, M.D. (@NanHayworth) ~ The DOJ had those Latin-mass Catholics it had to investigate first.
Because they're the real threat to society. Or something.
Phillip Jackson (@PEJ1952) ~ It’s understandable that they missed this one. Monitoring all those school board meetings can keep an agent up late at night, especially when they have to watch all those Christians during the day who are the real threat to society.
That and chasing down everyone who was in D.C. on January 6, 2020.
Don't forget the white supremacist fitness buffs. They keep the FBI very busy.
Pradheep J. Shanker (@Neoavatara) ~ What a complete failure.
An utter failure.
The FBI is a bad joke.
IT Guy (@ITGuy1959) ~ The FBI had higher priorities, like stalking dissident school board members and locking up grandmothers who took selfies in D.C. 3 years ago.
faitaccompli (@fateaccomply) ~
Things the FBI can do:
1. Track down everyone in Washington DC on January 6.
2. Investigate parents at school board meetings
3. Coordinate censorship campaigns on facebook
Things the FBI cannot do:
1. Return the phone call of someone reporting a potential mass shooter
Phone calls are hard, man.
There's a pattern here: a mass shooter is on the radar of the FBI or local law enforcement, posting violent things on social media, and then they commit the crime without the FBI doing anything.
Wash, rinse, repeat.
