Vetting failure led to terrorism?

[Jermyn Davidson]

Praxeas, we don't know if she came to America radicalized or not. We don't know for sure.

I just read where the father of the husband said plainly that over time, his son came to agree with IS. Maybe he radicalized her. Maybe they radicalized each other.

However, I don't think anyone knows if this event was due in part to a vetting failure.

I say in part because even if there was a vetting failure, she could have chose to not do what she did. To make the statement, "the 14 victims in San Bernardino would be alive today if she was never let into our country in the first place," is impossible to prove or disprove.

With this logic, then we must blame the Bush Administration for 9-11, the Clinton Administration for the Embassy bombings in Tanzania and Nairobi, and Reagan for Beiruit.

There is ALWAYS something America could have done differently, always a tidbit of knowledge that could have been analyzed differently...

whether she did or didn't is not the point...our vetting process has huge holes.
