if the FBI had a tail on every person who had sexual anxieties there would be about 3 people NOT under surveillance

Point is, they had a tail on him and he (likely) looked like classic pre-mass killer of ANY sexual orientation.

I'm not sure if law enforcement can intervene if you're just angry and violent (other than maybe a restraining order fwiw)

Maybe. I'm also curious whether they went easy on him bc finding him to be dangerously violent would threaten job.

I doubt it, they probably just don't pay attention to domestic violence/threats that don't involve "Islamic terrorism"

Right: that's my point. Is FBI so blindered on Islamic terrorism they would not see obvious clues for "regular" mass shooter?
