What if I just read an online suggestion to commit violence on a grand scale?

And the website won't care. What do I do with that? It's a privately owned site.

1. Report it to the FBI

Local and state law enforcement.

6. ok. I called it into the fbi. I didn't know you could.

It's someone on a private site suggesting to blow something up. Maybe it's nothing. Maybe this is a constant, hourly event. Who knows. But now I can sleep at night. The fbi can look it up themselves.

7. Call number is on this page. 24/7 here is link.

Go there, get number, call them immediately. Screenshots, proof of some kind is best to have on hand.

A link to the page that you can email the person you talk to will help.

9. Ok. Thanks. He said if they can't pull it up from the address I read them, they'll call me back

for the screenshot. At that point at least I'll know it got somewhere real.

I guess maybe they really did want to know. I wasn't at all sure. I figure this is a constant problem.

Also, by speaking with them, they can profile me and know I'm not a nutjob. The online submission form can't do that.

I also think I appear to be honest if I call them live. They can tap my phone.

I should ask them what's in my file when they call me back!

10. I've called them before, I don't think nothing of it.

It is our duty as citizens to report danger to other citizens if we see it. I am proud of you for making the call.

Don't ask about your file as they probably do not know anything. Most files like that are collected by AI and cataloged for future use if needed. They are really never looked at unless you rise to the level of an active threat.

I know you were just joking...

Keep us posted if they call you back, I think what you did is very honorable. Thank you for reporting it.

3. State and local police. FBI.

4. Don't delay.

Call them ASAP. Get a screen shot of what you saw and copy the link to the post paste it somewhere. You might save a life...or lots of them. The cult is going to get desperate if they’re not already.

8. Report it to FBI NOW via phone, email or website. Lives are at stake.

Even if it is a prank, it must be taken seriously.
