Trump Supporters Apparently Attacked At Rally With Clandestine Weapon

At least 20 Trump supporters may have been attacked covertly by chemicals or a high-power laser at a Trump rally in Tucson on September 12. Some victims suffered severe burns. Many were temporarily blinded, with symptoms lasting until today. Others may have been affected but have yet to be identified. The fact that all those known to have been affected were sitting on the stage immediately adjacent to President Trump is important in understanding the significance of what happened.

The victims were all part of a “Latinos for Trump” group on the stage. President Trump shook hands with them as he walked to the podium. But what they believed was their good fortune soon turned into a nightmare when severe symptoms began to strike 30 minutes after the rally.

Pastor Eli Moreno opened the rally with a prayer. He and his wife, Francesca Moreno, were among the first victims. After an exciting time of being up close and personal with President Trump, they began to develop symptoms on their drive home. Francesca was hit hardest. Her face began to swell, her vision blurred, and her sinuses started to run uncontrollably. When they stopped at a local drugstore for relief, they found other rally-goers with the same symptoms. Doctors at a local emergency room flushed her eyes and sent her to an ophthalmologist. Five days later, her vision was still significantly blurred.

Another victim, Mayra Rodriguez, also fell ill 30 minutes after the rally. Her symptoms included burning eyes and a severe headache. By the time she was rushed to the emergency room, she couldn’t open her eyes.

Other attendees had similar symptoms, reporting significantly blurred vision, severe eye pain, and facial swelling are common symptoms...

Anyone else left that believes we’re not in a war yet? Protect yourselves. Your government isn’t going to do it, and they want you dead.

The Demonicrats are enthusiastic about murdering children of the womb, even up to the moment of birth, and other crimes against humanity.

As traitors to the United States, Demonicrats have essentially no moral restraint to injuring or murdering Trump or his supporters.

Tear gas is rapid acting as is pepper spray etc. This must have been something else with a delayed reaction.

I would look at their departure. If they left as a group it would further explain the limited exposure. Hit them all at once.
If they didn't get hit by something inside (they had no symptoms until afterwards) it had to be done outside (IMO) and there was plenty of time to ID and isolate them.

JMO, YMMV

Get your laser protection glasses if you're going to a rally.

Yes they do hate us. They don’t even try to hide anymore, just. look at the comments of Hillary, Joe Scarborough and Howard Stern.

Democrats are evil, vicious and hateful.

This seems to be the kind of effect UV light would have. IR would just have a slight heating effect and it would be felt immediately if it was very strong. UV would not be felt and would cause sunburn symptoms.

Could have been a UV or NIR laser. Tucson have a significant number of optical engineering companies plus the Optical Sciences Center at the U of A and a large Raytheon plant that specializes in electro-optics. An engineer could have tried to aim a UV or NIR laser from a location outside the event perimeter at Trump. Since the beam from these wavelengths are invisible, it would be difficult to accurately point the laser directly onto President Trump.

Sounds so very Putinist. It seems like something he would do.

Yes, you’re right.

But if you put tear gas liquid into something like petroleum jelly, you can smear it around. People then get affected when they run their eyes or whatever.

You could have the same result with really hot peppers. Say mix in ghost peppers into a liquid (even water) and pour it around.

Just thinking about the time I made fajitas and didn’t wash my hands well enough after cutting peppers.

Got me two hours later.

Check video of the crowd. The laser isn’t visible but the guy holding it will be.

Could have been highly diluted mustard gas (which is actually droplets, not a gas).

Trouble is that you don’t know what color laser the attacker will use. Laser protection glasses are made for specific wave lengths.
