Don't know why I didn't catch this, but domestic terrorist Lt. Hasson was arrested last Friday?

Sure took a while to go public with it. I guess they kept it quiet to investigate if there were more involved. Since it is public now, and it happened 5 days ago, it should surely be enough time for DHS or DOJ to make a statement on this domestic terrorist. Why the silence? Why isn't msm digging?

That's kinda scary... Does he have followers in the Coast Guard?

They probably had to serve a search warrant for further evidence. This guy isn't very smart, the Coast Guard caught him because he was doing research for his planned killing spree on work computers.
