A multi-millionaire retired accountant with no previous criminal record committed the deadliest mass shooting in American history five years ago today and the FBI closed the case with a 3-page report that never determined a motive.— Greg Price (@greg_price11) October 1, 2022
I mean as far as I know it had no long term effects. Shootings aren't exactly rare in the USA, what's the take here?
when something seems fishy I can believe it's usually because there was a bright red flag that any actual law enforcement agency would pick up. The coverup is to make the red flags look like 'nobody could have known'. If the public knew how little the CIA/FBI is actually able to do about crime, they'd want them reined in.
It's easier to do image control after the crime than prevent the crime.

That feels much more plausible, that's a very satisfying take.
