The shooter had plenty of time to squeeze off 8 shots.

Definitely. According to the timeline I saw online, from the time of the first shot to the would be assassin on the roof being taken out, was 26 seconds.

Firing a shot every two seconds is not difficult. It is a little harder if you have to shift targets.

Well trained and practiced experts could get off 48 rounds in a minute, aiming at a target 200 meters away, with a bolt action Lee-Enfield .303 rifle.

My guess is that they'd never spoken with someone as persuasive as that federale, who described their beautiful families in such vivid terms.

They still haven’t even gotten their stories straight on what the so called shooter drove to the rally. There’s a bike, a van and a Hyundai Sonata. a 20 year old is a mystery when he drove all 3 vehicles there, flew a drone before the shooting, and climbed the roof undetected by SS, State Police and Butler and Beaver police with an AR15 a detonator and a rangefinder.

My question is why did the shooter Crooks stop shooting after 8 rounds when an AR15 holds way more than 8 rounds.

“My question is why did the shooter Crooks stop shooting after 8 rounds when an AR15 holds way more than 8 rounds.”

He was getting shot at by local LE and his target was down out of sight. LE said that day they missed but body on roof has a leg wound.

I heard the snipper team on the far right red building took out Crooks in about 5 seconds after he commenced firing. That could be why.

” ... with a bolt action Lee-Enfield .303 rifle.”

With a SIG Sauer 200 STR target rifle.

How can that be if eight shell casings were found on the roof? Could someone be bending the truth? Again?

“Pure hatred of Trump or was he acting on behalf of another party?”

I would say both...
We’ve got to have a full review of all his communications, posts and contacts. This goes deeper than just a stupid kid firing off 8 shots at the president. There’s no way this kid acted alone. The circumstances do not add up that way. Who was coaching him, who made the arrangements to leave that rooftop open. Who was it that identified this individual as a patsie and turned him loose.

We should not be satisfied with another Warren report whitewash of this incident. Someone used the the levers of the american justice system as a weapon against a united states president.

It’s pretty clear many are missing the big picture here.

There is proof beyond reasonable doubt from the audio analysis that there were at least two shooters firing in the direction of President Trump and the people in the stands.

Two shooters means elements
inside the federal government attempted to assassinate President Trump.

All 8 casings found on the roof means is there were 8 casings on the roof, Not that there were 8 actual shots from that position.

Come on, the ‘official’ version is what the information is that they want us to have and believe.

No sh uck shirlock’?’
The little dumb boy was put in to “punish your enemy”.
By firing indiscriminately into the crowd, shots 4 thru 8 in rapid fire they intended to stampede Trump supporters.
Probably told him that they would cover his escape.@
It did not work Trump supporters stood fast with their President.
Fake news always ready to,reported this wrong in the talking points effort to cast Trump supporters in their fake news light.

I listened over and over.

Shooter fired a 3 round burst, then a 5 shot burst firing more rapidly.

The next report was from a different weapon and that sound difference was notable.

I also noted that the last weapon report would have put the round in the shooters head about the same time you could hear the shooters last report.

Thanks for the correction.

I was thinking of Alfred Snoxall, with the .303. He made 38 hits into a 12 inch target area at 300 yds in one minute.

Here is a video of a Norwegian shooter doing it at 200 meters with the target rifle, using five round magazines.

You said "There is only two answers to this. 1. Incompetence beyond belief or 2. willful negligence."

Actually I suspect a third answer (3. Complicit.)
