In reply to the discussion: FBI on San Bernardino massacre: Alleged shooters did NOT post support for jihad on social media [View all]99th_Monkey
(19,326 posts)41. I like how you think beyond the smoke & mirrors, to ask the right questions.
I've been haunted by these reports of numerous eye-witnesses all agreeing that there were "3 shooters".
Regardless of whether they were all "tall athletic white men", or if one was actually a small female, three
shooters is three shooters. It's very difficult to imagine someone mistaking a male / female couple for
three male shooters. It just makes no sense to me.
If you haven't seen this, I posted it in reply to another post on this string. It's a CBS Scott Pelley phone
interview with one of the witnesses saying there were 3 shooters. I was glad I found it because much
of the chatter on the inter-webs is on RW sites, ones that can't be posted here.

I would hope that they know who the person is (if he exists) and are just watching the person

Wait, they wore tactical gear and facemasks, but unnamed witnesses say they saw white muscular men?

What? That's not a witness talking. That is an unnamed source in the "fog of war".

LOL. Even after the anthrax attacks & the WMDs, some still believe anything they try to sell you.

But it sure didn't stop Comey from using San Bernardino as a pretext . . .

there are still twelve people dead. Posting support for jihad or not does not ease the grief.
