Please ping me with articles of interest. FReepmail me to be added to the list...
Temporarily filling-in for lightman, while he's smashing PA's demonKKKrat voting poll fraud and corruption,
on Monday.
Well, one reason he may have been recruited for the job is he has rifle team on his resume.
now he is a dead shot... too soon?
not soon enough.
There is no mention on the High School’s website of a rifle club, so we should consider this bogus.

At 140 yards, an assassin doesn’t need to be a marksman.
This is a rehash of another story written by a group of 4 writers...AP, as I recall. The guy (now head of the rifle team) who claimed the shooter wasn’t allowed on the team because the shooter was a terrible shot is just 15 or 16 now, and wouldn’t have known the shooter back when the guy was in high school years ago...probably wasn’t even on the team at the time.
Clearly the shooter wasn’t a bad shot considering in the heat of the moment he was able to graze Trump immediately after being interrupted by the cop coming up the ladder, knowing he had been discovered. But then, he had had 4 years to practice, I guess.
I find his “misses” detailed in the article to be a fabrication or at least an exaggeration. Perhaps a cover up resume being formed?
He wasn’t that terrible of a shot. He came within an inch or two of almost killing Trump.
He used an aimpoint type red dot. Thankfully he didn’t have a variable scope with parallax.
I find this claim hard to believe. I was on my high school rifle team, also shot CMP at the same time. Rifle team took everyone who had the desire to be on the team. Our coach used to assign poor shooters with the best as a way to help them to become better. He always taught us that the point of the team was to raise the skills up of everyone on it.
FWIW...the roof had to be hot to the touch from the sun beating down on it all day.
I call BS on this article.
Let’s not be stupid. He was not a bad shot. Trump leaned forward and turned otherwise the rear of his head would have evaporated.
Clean head shot avoided by Providence.
The boy did that after being startled by a cop climbing the ladder behind him and scaring him off, then recovered, took aim and damn near killed the President.
SO call that poor if you want, but you’d have to describe September Eleventh as thrown together.
No, that kid was on a mission and he barely failed.
I am surprised just to hear of a high school shooting team. I was on one back in the 70’s but i didnt think there were any remaining after so many decades of anti-gun propaganda.
Any decent shot can put it within 1 moa. However, if you know in a few seconds your brains were going to be blown out I am not sure it is real easy to hold the gun steady.
he was a freshman when that happened.
perfect candidate for the cia.
they could’ve trained him, spun him up, and set him loose.
A “registered Republican” is another thing the media is pushing. Pennsylvania is one of 10 states with a closed primary system. Along with donating to ActBlue, that tells me he was anti-Trump enough to want to register as a Republican just to vote against him in the primary.
