#1 Homeland Security bulletin sent by the Boston Regional Intelligence Center after Tuesday’s officer-involved shooting warns law enforcement and military personnel to be on guard and watch what they post on social media.
The information, confirmed by a WBZ source, said the shooting reinforces the need for officer safety.
Law enforcement and military personnel are told to avoid posting their home or work address, location names, or phone numbers online, and to take other precautions on social media.
“Review personal and family members social media sites to avoid revealing law enforcement affiliation,” the bulletin said. “Limit who can view your social media sites; set the privacy and security settings to the highest possible level.”

#2 Making the Japanese Interment look more reasonable, day after day. Congratulations guys. Keep up the work and the Lefty apologists running at the mouth. Another 9/11 and a new perspective will start taking hold.

#3 The left would go absolutely ape$hit and start frothing at the mouth at the mention of the word "internment." It is amusing to think about this morning.

So far the jihadist wannabees have not fared well against the boys in blue in Boston, Garland, and other places.

I'm thinking, if internment becomes necessary we could inter the jihadis and the Left together. It would only be fair.

#6 More background on the dead man:
5 Investigates also learned new information about Usaamah Rahim's past in Massachusetts.

According to the Brookline school superintendent, Usaamah Rahim attended Brookline High School for three years, beginning in his sophomore year in 2004, and graduated in 2007. In his yearbook picture, he wore a Yankees baseball hat and did not have a senior quote.

The superintendent said Usaamah Rahim was in Saudi Arabia for his freshman year.

School officials said Usaamah Rahim also attended the Baker School, an elementary K-8 school in south Brookline.

They believe he was there for two years.

#7 ...he wore a Yankees baseball hat

In Boston, that's enough to get you shot right there.

#8 "We started getting suspicious of him in high school."

"Why because he went to school in Soddy Aridia?"

"Whut no, he was a Yankees fan."

#9 Bostonglobe.com (behind the paywall) has stated relatives of Rahim will give a press conference - at the parking lot where he was shot. I can almost smell the BS from here.

#10 More from Ch. 5 in Boston:

  • Terror suspect Usaamah Rahim, who was fatally shot Tuesday after waving a military knife at police officers in Boston, called his father that day to say "his goodbyes," according to a law enforcement official. The conversation was caught by investigators who had been monitoring Rahim's email and phone activity during 24-7 surveillance.



  • Law enforcement officials believe they have tracked down everyone involved in the Boston plot.



  • The FBI had been watching Rahim for a few years and said his behavior had changed in that time. He had made social media threats to police officers, they said.

#11 I can almost smell the BS from here.

Given what his brother said already, you would think he'd want to keep his mouth shut. But hey, if he wants to dig a deeper hole, give him a backhoe.

#12 From another Ch 5 note:
"We are deeply concerned about what the police justification was for approaching Mr. Rahim without securing a warrant from a judge," someone close to Rahim's family said.

#13 approaching Mr. Rahim without securing a warrant from a judge

A Sharia judge, one trusts.

#14 BS is coming in with the tide. I found this on the internet today, won't bother mentioning the source. Kinda reminds me of the stuff I was finding on the afternoon of 9/11/2001:
So just like that, major American media outlets converted someone about whom they knew nothing into a dangerous terrorist in the middle of executing an ISIS-related terror plot. And the heroic law enforcement officials didn’t just kill an ISIS Terrorist on the loose in America, but likely disrupted a vicious sleeper cell. All of that was achieved without a shred of evidence or investigation: just mindlessly repeating the self-justifying claims of the police agents who had just killed him.

Even the police’s version of events, if believed, raises all sorts of questions. They say Rahim was under “24-hour surveillance” by the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force, and were monitoring him for at least two years. When they approached him, they had no arrest or search warrant, but instead simply wanted to question him. When they did so, he pulled out his knife, and when he refused to put it away and walked toward them, they shot and killed him.

There are numerous questions raised by all of this. If Rahim was so dangerous, why didn’t the constant surveillance result in any charges?
