“The techniques would include cyber-searches of language that mass-casualty shooters have used in e-mails and Internet postings,” Mr. Kelly said in a statement. “The goal would be to identify the shooter in cyberspace, engage him there and intervene, possibly using an undercover to get close, and take him into custody or otherwise disrupt his plans.”

hmm, seems fishy to me. a lot of places i'm reading that it's suspicious if you don't have a facebook account or if you deleted a facebook account then you must be up to no good. :hmm:

Minority Report anyone? I guess child killers will join terrorists to take American freedoms away...

Is this Minority Report coming to life? Or is this chapter out of the FBI counter terrorism playbook? Find people on the fringe, supply them with the logistics and idea and arrest them when they show up? Then pat law enforcement on the back for a job well done.

If done properly it makes sense, if it's effective. Crime profiling happens all the time and it can be effective. e.g. talk about killing political leaders can lead you to getting a free meeting with the FBI. Drawing a picture with your entire class killed, free meeting with police, too.
