Fox News<\/a> is reporting today that two weeks before he killed his co-workers, a\u00a0$28,500 deposit was made into the bank account of the San Bernardino<\/a> shooter. In the days before the shooting, $10,000 of that money was withdrawn as cash and there were three transfers of $5,000 that appear to be to his mother.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

The loan and large cash withdrawal were described to Fox News by the source as \u201csignificant evidence of pre-meditation,\u201d and further undercut the premise that an argument at the Christmas party on Dec. 2 led to the shooting.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fox News is also told that investigators are exploring whether the $10,000 cash withdrawal was used to reimburse Enrique Marquez, the man who bought the two semiautomatic rifles used in the San Bernardino shootings.\u00a0Marquez is now reportedly answering investigators\u2019 questions.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cRight now our major concern at the FBI<\/a>, the ATF, and the JTTF (Joint Terrorism Task Force<\/a>) is determining how those firearms, the rifles in particular, got from Marquez to Farook and to Malik,\u201d \u00a0<\/i>assistant special agent in charge<\/a> with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms<\/a>, John D\u2019Angelo, told reporters in California<\/a> Monday.<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the same news conference,\u00a0 authorities said the weapons were all legally purchased in California between 2007 and 2012.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article brings up the issue of whether or not the $10,000 cash withdrawal should have triggered reporting requirements. Deposits over $10,000 need to be reported, but I am not sure about withdrawals.<\/p>\n

It is interesting to me that the weapons were said to have been legally purchased before California passed stricter gun control laws. If they were purchased legally before the law<\/a> was passed, how was the sale of those weapons legal? Who brought the shooter and the person with the guns together?<\/p>\n

The fact that the shooter rented the SUV<\/a> two days before the attack is also an indication that this was a premeditated attack.<\/p>\n

The thing we need to remember when dealing with terrorists is that they are not stupid. The people recruiting (not the people who are planning to be killed) understand our laws and know how to get around them. They are also very patient. They are willing to take a year or two to plan an operation before carrying it out. As Americans<\/a>, we live in a society where the microwave takes too long. We need to understand that protecting our people and preserving our country is going to be a long-term struggle and we need to be prepared for it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
