The FBI and ATF didn't 'get it.'

Syed R. Farook and Tashfeen Malik (click here) dropped off their 6-month-old daughter with the baby's grandparents on Wednesday morning, explaining that they had a doctor's appointment, says Hussam Ayloush, executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations here, who talked with Farook's father-in-law.

But instead, Farook would briefly go to a holiday office party at the Inland Regional Center where he worked as a environmental specialist. He left only to return with Malik, police say. With assault rifles and bombs, the pair gunned down 14 and injured at least 17 others....

No investigative unit in the USA thought multiple ownership of AK-47s was something to be concerned about? Really? That is disowning the problem. The local police should have known about the intense population of weapons in the neighborhoods they were patrolling on a regular basis.

The lack of coordination between guns purchasers of military style weapons and the "cop on the beat" is gross negligence of the federal government.
