The police and Secret Service knew for around 10 minutes that the shooter had breached security, had a rifle and was setting up to try to assassinate President Trump.
There are credible but as of yet unconfirmed reports that the over watch marksman had eyes on the shooter for over three minutes waiting for authorization to take him down that never came.
It's confirmed that the police were also aware of the shooter and that a police officer actually went on the roof to confront the shooter but retreated when the shooter pointed the rifle at him.
Think. You’re a cop and an a-hole on a roof top has a rifle and is likely gonna shoot something. You climb the ladder spot the subject. “Drop the weapon” you holler. He starts to turn. Boom, boom, boom. Triple tap shooter down. Damn it ain’t rocket science. WTF?
“There are credible but as of yet unconfirmed reports that the over watch marksman had eyes on the shooter for over three minutes waiting for authorization to take him down that never came.”
Yes. What IS certain is the video shows the police officer had acquired the target and had in his scope. It takes time to acquire the target and aim. He took him out instantly only after he shot at Trump. Based on that video, there is zero doubt he had his scope and aim in him well before he fired at Trump.
It’s confirmed that the police were also aware of the shooter and that a police officer actually went on the roof to confront the shooter but retreated when the shooter pointed the rifle at him.
so all the officer had to do was warn him to put the rifle down or he would shoot?
Sounds to me like that would be the normal course of law enforcement.
Also why wasn’t he/she on their communications to warn I’m on this roof, need backup, identified shooter here.
All so fishy, Big lawsuit coming , and righfully so from the deceased firemans family.
They need to name Biden in it to drive home the point of what he has done to the agencies...
