FOREIGNER ARRESTED – Tried to KILL DONALD TRUMP at Vegas Rally
Gateway Pundit ^ | June 20, 2016 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 06/20/2016 3:50:35 PM PDT by bobsunshine

Anti-Trump protester Michael Sandford was arrested Saturday at Donald Trump’s Las Vegas rally at the Treasure Island Hotel and Casino.

Sandford tried to grab a cop’s gun.....

A federal officer says a man arrested at a Donald Trump rally in Las Vegas told authorities he tried to grab an officer’s gun so he could kill the candidate.

A complaint filed Monday in U.S. District Court in Nevada charges Michael Steven Sandford with an act of violence on restricted grounds.

It cites a report by Special Agent Swierkowski, whose first name was not included, saying Sandford told officers he drove from California to kill Trump and went to a Las Vegas gun range the day before to learn to shoot.

Sandford later went to a Trump rally at the Treasure Island Casino and approached a Las Vegas police officer to say he wanted an autograph from Trump.

The report says Sandford was arrested after grabbing the handle of an officer’s gun in an attempt to remove it.

They should arrest the police officer carrying the gun, it is after all the evil gun that does the crime not the innocent Brit.

There are facts that do not make sense.

I am in complete agreement here. These are pertinent questions that should be pursued. I am an expat from England and a Canadian citizen. What I just cannot figure is how a 19 year old gets enough credit/cash to have an automobile and drive around many miles. The old adage drummed into my youthful head in England was "money doesn't grow on trees". Perhaps now it does. Many would like to know the secret where I live in Canada.

I smile sadly as I remember my own attempt to get into the United States as a 23 year old in 1954. I got the forms from the American embassy in London. I had to have a clear years pay in hand and a sponsor, the forms said. Canada wanted $150 dollars and disembark, then find work.

In anyone's language this fellow is not only a fool, but pathetic to boot. Albeit dangerous too.

Because it's Trump, the enemedia will continue referring to the perp as a "teenager" as the Daily Mail is doing in the linked article.

Because it's Trump, the enemedia is already setting up excuses for the perp, i.e., "teenager".

If a 19 year-old is in the U.S. military, he's called and treated as a man, not a teenager.

Because it's Trump, we'll be reading that the perp was in a special-ed class when he was in middle school (like they're claiming now for the Orlando murderer's complicit wife).....and that he was abused by his nanny when he was 3.

Saw the following on another site, Instapundit.

The Marxist Socialist Media finally has a white male that they can blame for a terrorist attack:

I know! Where did he get his gun from?

The cops?

Great! Let's disarm all the cops! /libtard mode> (ISIS, former Weather Underground, Soros-inspired rioters) (in chorus): YEAH!!!!!

All that hateful anti-Trump rhetoric coming from Democrats is the cause.

Someone ought to ask “Stabby the Clown” (Glenn Beck) for his opinion on this.

I have read (someone on The Conservative Tree House blog) that “sanford” is a generic used by the military, Sanford Bridge, for example, or for people in need of a “cover name”.

Me? I am just gathering information.

Maybe he just wanted Trump to be “Cold As Ice”.

“Does this sound completely ludicrous to anyone else? It does to me. “

yeah, but it does look like that’s what happened.

***I’m a Cruzer with a sense of humor, so...was it Ted Cruz?***

No, he would have brought his own gun.

I’m kidding. I joke with. I joke with.

Seriously though, this is getting scary. The media blaming Republicans instead of the Muslims, and idiot lunatics that believe them, sooner or later someone is going to get shot at. And the only one who will escape is Hillary..............in her cloud of green smoke.

Nice, I see what you did there. One of the best drummers around is Neil Peart. Although Rush, for me, it’s one of those bands you wanna listen to more so than watch cause, dang.
