Blatant Security Lapses
Trump Assassination Attempt: Security Lapses, Manipulating Public Perception - YouTube ^ | The New Atlas

Posted on 07/14/2024 10:30:31 AM PDT by BEJ

This video gives a good analysis of security lapses. Freepers also mention having a drone overhead, which to my mind is a great and cheap observational tool. A tool that s.s security has missed out on. Anyway, this guy also goes into what some would describe as conspiracy theory. But he still makes a lot of valid points about security lapses.

I have been on a range with Secret Service agents.

They know firearms and their capabilities.

They know that 133 yards is nothing for a rifle.

There are no obstacles and it’s a roof where civilians can’t interfere with the shot.

They know that.

Security lapses were deliberate.
Can’t convince me otherwise.
The “stop Trump by any means necessary” runs deep and wide in our current political culture.

There is simply no reason to have female SS agents. Every one of them FAILED miserably... from the one who dropped her sunglasses and exposed Trump’s chest while she picked them up, to the nitwit would couldn’t holster her sidearm.

The Secret is that the Secret Service is the Deep State and the Deep State planned this. They tried to kill President Trump - the Secret Service “shooters” had only one job which was to shoot and kill anyone with a gun that was trying to kill their protectee. They did NOT fail by accident or stupidity. To the contrary the shooters were part of the plot and their job was to kill the shooter after his mission whether it was successful or not. It failed and they killed him- end of questions. Now arrest the two Secret Service shooters for NON FEASENCE which is undeniable - that will give us a way to hold them and detain them without saying we think they are guilty of a much greater crime.

Consider the eyewitnesses on the ground reported the guy bear crawling with a rifle to police ON THE GROUND minutes before the attack. Compared to the sniper’s high vantage point, the cops on the ground were essentially useless. Anyone knows that. Need to examine cops body cams to determine the time of reports, before cams are erased.

Prepare for a solid week of gaslighting. There is absolutely no excuse for this “lapse”. There will never be a believable explanation. B.s. is coming from SS and local cops.

There was one guy at the presser yesterday says the perp was outside the perimiter????

Outside the perimeter? That perimeter is is anything within eyesight of The President and a bit beyond.

How in the Ho Lee Phuk is that possible?

I’ve been to Trump rallies and snipers are everywhere, including in the hills surrounding.

Security is actually visible for miles before you even get to a rally venue.

I felt safe, as well, unconcerned for The President’s safety

Moreover, there was a helicopter circling the event

So… a guy just decides to show up at a rally and take a potshot at PDJT… and he looks around for a spot that wasn’t covered by USSS and… well whadaya know! He’s in luck. A handy barn roof with no-one on it. And his rifle happens to be sighted in for the distance to the stage.

Now, let’s just see if he can get up there with a rifle without being spotted. Well whaddaya know! Another lucky break! Wait… he was spotted and pointed out to security, Well whaddaya know! Three times lucky! Security blew it off.

Oops. His luck ran out. He was shot deader’n a doornail. Tsk, tsk. Too bad. Can’t question him now.

Gonna be lots of stuff out there

Fact is “it should have never happened “

That it did is inexplicable and no answer will be acceptable

Snipers have an Area of Operation

In that AO are Squares that they are responsible for scanning hostiles and intelligence

Each Square also has math notes for distance, elevation, declination, etc

This was not a slipup

I can pop anything at 500 yrds with iron sights so, a scope would only be easier

Women are perfectly capable of sniper duty. I remember Wanda Jewell, who was on the rifle team at Eastern Washington State. She was head and shoulders above her competition. IIRC, she earned a spot on the Olympic team.

Thirty years ago the SS had the technology that instantly alerted them when someone accessed a location from which the President could be shot.

That was long before drones.
