re: #169 Targetpractice

Indeed. How does one protect against lone wolves when the law provides plenty of shields for said wolves from even cursory investigation?

I’m not sure. The basic problem is that police have a hard time being proactive when there is not ongoing criminal activity, and with Holmes there wasn’t. Until he wedged open the emergency exit to get his murder kit he had not broken the law and thus the law’s ability to investigate him was very sharply limited.
