President Joe Biden’s administration announced their plans to create ways for Americans to report radicalized friends and family to the government, in an effort to fight domestic terrorism.

In a conversation with reporters, one senior administration official explained the importance of stopping politically fueled violence before it started.

“We will work to improve public awareness of federal resources to address concerning or threatening behavior before violence occurs,” the official said.

The official cited the Department of Homeland Security’s “If you see something say something” campaign to help stop radical Islamic terror as a domestic possibility.

“This involves creating contexts in which those who are family members or friends or co-workers know that there are pathways and avenues to raise concerns and seek help for those who they have perceived to be radicalizing and potentially radicalizing towards violence,” the official said.

Interestingly, this administration sees anyone who voted for Trump, doesn't support BLM or CRT, or criticized last summer's riots as "radical."

Hasn’t this been around since 9-11? Maybe even before that.
See something say something. Fbi tip line or homeland security.

Some of the Jan 6 arrests were made from tip line calls identifying family and friends.
Why wouldn’t we want to help the fbi catch a criminal or potential terrorists.

How about if they just go to portland, or look up antifa on fb and twitter. That will get them a bunch. Or look at the FBI persons that organized Jan 6th. They have their names but listed them as person 1 and 2 in report, detailing which hotel rooms they stayed in.

Sir or Madame;

About a week ago, some crazy man went into a Publix and shot a 1 year old, when the kids grandmother went to attack the shooter, he shot and killed her too. Then he shot himself.

Through investigation, it was discovered he had posted on Facebook that he wanted to kill kids and women.

Apparently no one reported it.

I believe the Parkland shooter also had some social media posts that WERE reported, but nothing was done. There was another shooter as well who had some "history" that was reported but nothing was done.

So what is the public to do? If we do report things, nothing happens until SOMETHING happens. If we don't report things, something happens and then everyone wonders why no one said anything.

And then Facebook and other social media sites can find the time to scout and ban what THEY determine is offensive, but can't forward posts about wanting to kill people to local agencies?

Scary times is right, Grlzrl - scary times indeed.
