54. It's pretty much all silliness here

In the old East Germany, people had an obligation to report what they thought other people might be up to.

I guess folks here think ringing up the police and saying "I think so-and-so is thinking about killing bunch of people" is supposed to get so-and-so arrested, "watched" (as if the FBI has tons of folks on call to indefinitely watch whomever some random person calls in and wants watched), or something like that.

When was this "report" supposed to have been made? Before he bought the guns?

And so, in response, the FBI is supposed to do what? Come by the house and say, "Hey we got a tip you want to kill a bunch of people" and if the guy says, "Gee, yes I do want to kill a bunch of people" then what is supposed to happen?

It's not illegal to want to kill people.
