Ackwaaaaaard......

You know how I try to differentiate between the FBI leadership (which is corrupt, blatantly political, and worthless) and the actual FBI agents who are in the line of fire?

They're kinda making that hard these days.

An FBI agent got himself into an embarrassing situation on Saturday when his service weapon fell out of its holster while dancing at a Denver club and he accidentally shot a fellow patron while retrieving it. 
Denver police responded to Mile High Spirits Distillery and Tasting Bar for an accidental shooting at about 12:45 a.m. on Saturday. According to police, an off-duty FBI agent was dancing at the club when his firearm fell to the ground. He picked the gun up and it went off, shooting another person in the leg.

This dipshit was grooving like he was on Soul Train, while in an establishment serving alcohol, and attempted a back hand-spring, which is when the gun fell out of his holster.  He then put his booger-hook on the bang-switch while trying to snatch the gun up off the floor and shot a guy in the leg.

How many different levels of wrongness can we find in this story?

Drinking while carrying concealed.
Doing stupid shit while wearing a holster that allows the pistol to slip out.  I mean, seriously, what the hell was he wearing?
Complete and utter failure to follow Rules 1, 2, and 3.  For anyone who might be reading this blog for the first time and don't know what the four Rules are, they are:
1 - Treat every gun like it's loaded.  No exceptions.
2 - Never point your gun at anything you don't want to shoot.
3 - Keep your finger off the trigger until you're ready to fire.
4 - Know your target, and know what is behind your target.

Ah hell, he violated all four rules. 

He then put the gun back in its holster, and just walked off the dance floor like he was going to the house.  Hey, Mr. FBI asshole, maybe check and see if the bullet you just launched from your gun actually hit anything or anyone?

This fucking douche-canoe needs to be fired, hard and fast.  There are fuck-ups, and then there are monumental fuck-ups that require nothing more than leaving your weapon and your badge on your supervisor's desk as you walk out.

And as Insty points out, this ain't the first time that someone from the FBI has gotten this stupid.  Here's a counter-terrorism supervisor who got drunk with "exotic dancers", passed out, and had his firearm stolen.  This particular retard was so drunk his buddies had to call the cops for him.  They still haven't found the gun.  Bravo, people!

All it takes is one or two screw-ups to taint an organization.  As of right now, I don't know if I would trust the FBI to investigate a theater murder-mystery, because someone might get shot due to agent negligence, and they would write a report saying that it was all caused by Trump and Russia.  Someone out there said that Trump's most amazing ability is to cause his enemies to go absolutely batshit crazy.  I'd say that's about right.  We're seeing just how far the FBI has fallen.  Eight years of Obama's corruption has accelerated that fall, but the past year and change have really put them into a nose-dive.  In less than a decade, the FBI has gone from trusted and respected to flawed, corrupt and untrustworthy.  A partisan joke, told poorly, by idiots.

Sad!

Oh, I don't know, they were pretty poorly thought of a few years back when their crime lab could not think their way out of a paper bag. It has taken them this long to gain respectability once more. And now, this other crap.
But you are absofuckinglutely correct. It starts from the top and flows downhill. Incompetence is the one thing that cannot help but permeate an organization, when those who are in charge are so grossly incompetent that it's stench overpowers the entire mess. Sometimes it takes a thorough house cleaning and flushing our of most of the old and new blood, in order to get the house in order once again.
We of course know that there are many good and capable agents and leaders still in the FBI. The issue is going to be, how to find them, without keeping those who are the bad ones, in places that compromise not only the safety but also the quality of the work that the agency does, because the work is so necessary and valuable.
It will take someone of extreme strength and character, plus the ability to quickly determine who is able to be depended on and the mandate and the freedom to do what is necessary. Such men, and women, exist, but does the will? I can think of a few names, some familiar. Tommy Franks comes to mind. Norman Swartzkov, or Gen.Lloyd Austin. He was the General who Obama made the scapegoat for when he called ISIS the Javee team. Austin was an African American General, who actually told Obama that we needed to leave 20,000 troops in Iraq to maintain what gains we had made, but Obama would not listen to him,and as a result, the so called JV team suddenly went to the Varsity. And Obama made it look like it was someone else's fault, just like he always did. I don't know what Austin is doing now, but He was a strong, well liked General, who took over at the end in Iraq, when needed and finished the campaign, like a pro. There are just so many good people out there, if we would just give them the mission and the authority to do it. Of course, it is not going to happen, so why even dream? Hell, Nikki Haley could clean up the FBI, if given the chance and the mandate.

i dont know how many of the old crew were rehired after reagan fired the gang at the air traffic confusers, but you're not seeing anyone run two jets together real often anymore. i'm sure their getting close happens; the sky's a crowded place. perhaps a massive shakeup like that is needed in the doj. it'd take some due dilligence, maybe a bit of time to sort out who'd be rehired into leadership slots, but dump the whole mess in one fell swoop. if it'll work, allegedly, for the friends against aviation it may well work, again allegedly, for the dipshits of justice.....
