What a crazy thing for LE to say -- to have ISIS on the table at all. Odds would be strongly against it being related to ISIS -- it's far more likely to be a far-right wing white male, as many recent studies have shown.

The officer was responding to a a question posed by Megyn Kelly. In this new environment not an unreasonable question to ask.
