The guy on the grassy knoll, no doubt.
It was one roof where obviously a shooter could hit Trump!
I noticed that too. Proll’y just an angry hornet scared by the bullets whizzing by.
Yeah, but we have to take that with a grain of salt, because you know how he lies.
While on the topic of questions not asked:
Following the shooting and about the time of Bidens presser, Fox said the DNC just cancelled a $50 million ad buy the Biden campaign was set to release. I wonder what those ads were going to say. I speculate they were harsh Biden rhetoric that would not look good in the aftermath of the assassination attempt. This is why I doubt the attempt was orchestrated. Encouraged through hate rhetoric, yes, but controlled or set up? I don’t see the motivation. Trumps survival elevated him in the campaign and is not what Biden wanted to have to add to his campaign hurtles. This is karma for dems and all their hatred. They have set the stage for lawlessness and chaos at all levels of governing since COVID. They turned loose forces like antifa and BLM. But they can’t control the monsters they have allowed to fester. It is a dangerous time. Be prepared. JMHO.
I agree with you. It is probably the most reasonable / explainable one of all on this thread. Too bad others don’t see this.
Free Republic needs a like button or something.
Someone needs to ask what the actual rules of engagement were. I suspect they won’t want to disclose that for security reasons, but it’s critical to know if the SS snipers hands were tied prior to first shot.
There is no excuse for them. the one place a shooter could take up a position was that roof top. no other buildings around. none.
Yes, they saw the shooter on the roof and waited for him to shoot before they shot. It’s not supposed to work that way.
But according to witnesses, they didn’t think security could see the shooter because he was behind the roof line until the last second. Clearly there were no security personnel on the roof, or nearby roofs, not even local LEO’s, and right there is that level of incompetency you find so hard to accept. POSSIBLY conspiracy could set up that lack of security on the roof, but then you have to have several people involved, and the chances of hiding the plan are very poor.
The SS snipers were “covering” the roofline as they should, but, even then, unless their rifles just happen to be pointed EXACTLY where the shooter pops up, they have to ascertain the figure they see isn’t, say, a local LEO, and acquire the target. You can even see the closer sniper look up (the scope, of necessity, has a narrow field of view), reposition the rifle so the shooter is in the scope, then the sniper has to get the crosshairs on the shooter, and fire. That’s plenty of time for the shooter to get those 3 rushed shots off.
The ONLY failure they see is that their assassination plot didn’t kill Trump.
They let him on the roof and let him take his shots before the killed him to bury their tracks.
The red haired Trump supporter tried to get the attention of cops and SS. Those who ignored him need to be fired with prejudice. No pensions.
We don’t know what the officer saw. He has to make a split second decision that factors in many things. He has one shot.
What should have happened was having officers on the other roof. This was the big mistake yesterday. Not enough security.
Who says it was a mistake?
I've heard reports there were pipe bombs found last night in the shooter's van !!!!!
Very good post.
Yes, the shooter was rushed because he heard all the people yelling about him being on the roof with a gun. Thank God he was rushed but RIP to the man who was killed.
SService is responsible for vetting all areas. But, outside the venue it is local coppers to maintain vigilance.
Kinda like Ashlie was shot by a local copper.
Keep in mind that the suicide bomber that killed 13 Service Personnel during Biden's disgraceful "Afghanistan withdrawal" was also in a sniper's sights, but the sniper was not allowed to fire. The same traitors in our government are still calling the shots and they hate Trump worse than they hate their Taliban Bros.
‘A fundamental security failure’: How did a gunman open fire on a Trump rally?>>>. Correct headline is ‘A fundamental security failure’: How did the SS allow a rooftop 130 yards away from Trumps stage go unsecured? answer. They really wanted Trump to get shot.
This seems like an important question.
