RE: OSINT exercise - Mandalay Bay Casino Shooting

in #osint7 years ago

Oh yeah there is definitely some fog of war, it was fascinating to listen to them attempt to gain control of the situation.

The thing I hate is when police departments or governments will give the public the false impression that they are in any way capable of protecting them in chaotic situations like this (security theater) and it could not be further from the truth the more serious the situation the more incapable they seem to be.

Which is fine I'm not saying I could do a better job, just that they should not give people a false sense of security.

Then you have the gun control morons that think that's the solution to everything, what a joke.

Sort:  

as organized agents, States can provide better responses in some situations; provided they havn't been subverted or corrupted...a big assumption

you're looking for

  • process
  • communication
  • enough boots on the ground
  • coordination
  • intelligence gathering/analyzing
  • experience helps

however, organizations other than states can structure themselves for the same goals

the more serious the situation the more incapable they seem to be.

gonna be true for any human institution; this is lessened by experience...Las Vegas, Orlando etc will have better respones next time, but we hope there is no next time

Agreed.

I did an abbreviated post on InformationWar and the Fog of War at one point; I probably should dig that up, and make it a full post.
