This guy raised every red flag possible, yet still all that invasion of our privacy and the mass spying failed to do anything at all. This case if any possible proves that the spying is useless when it comes to terrorism and can only be used after the fact the same way obtaining traditional court sanctioned warrants could do.

This guy was reported to the FBI at least 2 times maybe 3 times. One time when he attempted to bu body armor and wanted to buy a large amount of ammo.

He was also kicked out of prison guard training and they even referenced the Virginia tech shooter as having striking similarities.

His dad supported the Taliban for fucks sake, yet none of this was enough to be noticed by the NSA it seems..

Yet mark my words they will tell us over and over again how valuable the spying is to stopping terrorism and need more ability to spy.. To date, not a single terrorist attack has been stopped by domestic spying..
