Perhaps the biggest failure was neglecting to have even basic counter-sniper assets in place for an event of this size.
Yes hundreds and thousands of these events occur each year but we live in an era where these are soft targets in a world of terrorism.
That mistake is unlikely to be repeated over the next six months to a year. The problem is that the very effectiveness of these countermeasures leads the bad guys to other, frequently more carnage generating, methods. Then, as we leap to counter a repeat of those "surprises" we let our guard down and fail to deploy counter sniper assets more and more frequently
The cycle repeats over a short enough time that the goal of discrediting the effectiveness and stability of our government is attained.
