About as authentic as Greed's explanation for dodging the Draft
Yes, we don’t know the denominator. Raoul mentioned that too. I’d be curious to know what it is.On the other hand we don’t know, and can’t know, how many events their current practices have prevented. It may be that 90% of the time dropping in and showing the parents what their kid has been up to is enough to prevent something from happening. The question is what do you want to do to that 90% that could’ve been avoided anyway to get more of that 10% that is going to proceed.
Edit: I personally know someone whose parents got a visit from the FBI back in the day. I can say with certainty that they were never going to shoot anything and were just idiot kids who made a bad joke too soon after Columbine. So not every FBI interaction actually prevents anything to begin with. That’s the challenge with gauging the impact of preventative measures.

Maybe internally they have some, but I don't recall ever hearing about things they're working on.
I"m sensitive to civil liberties issues, so I share some of your concerns.
This case seems like maybe parental criminal charges may be coming too from the little I've read. If you have a gun it is your responsibility (barring theft/robbery) that you keep that locked up away from your kid that the FBI visited you about.
fake newsYou trumptard idiots didn't have a problem with the polling until your orange idiot started losing. You lying punk.

You are so lame. If only I could take the message board more seriously. You and greed must live on this bitch every hour of the day. Professional disrupters. Eat shitShocker. Another deplorable fantasizing about things going up my ass.
Let’s count how much of a moron you are just from this thread:
1) You posted on the wrong board.
2) It took you three days to realize that.
3) You claimed that I was running this board, then when called out on it, you edited your post to say “ruining” this board.
4) 1988 supported you, which is possibly the biggest kiss of failure on this board.
5) You have thoughts about things going up my ass.
It’s hard to be moronic that many times in one thread, but you pulled it off.
