FBI WARNED TEXAS POLICE ABOUT JIHADISTS BEFORE CARTOONING CONTEST TOOK PLACE

It looks like the FBI deserves some congratulations for being on the alert too (Hat tip: Accuracy in Media):
The Federal Bureau of Investigation warned police in Garland, Texas, about three hours before a shooting at an exhibit of caricatures of the Prophet Mohammad that a gunman who launched a failed attack was interested in the event, FBI Director James Comey said on Thursday.

The FBI issued a bulletin to the police department saying Elton Simpson had an interest in the event held in the Dallas suburb but gave no indication that he planned an attack, Comey told reporters in Washington, according to an FBI spokesman.
It's good they were keeping track of the danger lurking. We must take our hats off to the brave FBI officials who offered great help.
