    On Monday, the FBI caught an army veteran who was allegedly planning to detonate a bomb at a right wing rally in Long Beach. Prosecutors say 26-year-old Mark Steven Domingo also considered targeting police and setting off a bomb at the Santa Monica pier. Domingo could face 15 years in prison. Domingo was arrested after weeks of online chatting with an FBI informant and taking what he thought were IEDs from an undercover investigator. But some people are questioning the FBI’s tactics, claiming they may veer into entrapment.
