The Army forced me to learn how to investigate.

I had to learn the hard way which consisted mostly of standing in front of the Squadron Commander’s desk with my heels locked while he administered a good old fashioned ass chewing if I messed up.

I had to learn about terms like duty and proximate cause and rational man and negligence and many other terms that are usually reserved for courtrooms.

I had to learn how to formally use reason and logic.

I look at this assassination attempt using what The Army painfully taught me.

This is serious business.

Attempted murder.

What is the unbroken chain of events that led to this incident?

Was there negligence?

Whose duty was it to provide security?

Met President Ford in 1975 & you can still see where the SS had the bottom 10’ of branches cut off from the surrounding pine trees. I can still remember the SS agents on top of the adjoining buildings and houses.

A good place to start is to assume “inside job” and see if there is any evidence that it is not the case.

The burden of proof should be on those who claim the SS was incompetent and not complicit.

I have a question for them. Who is running the place? That slut Peter Strzk and the human petri dish girl friend.

The silence on this question is deafening!

Ain't it though!

I read that both parents are social workers and that the father had bought the weapon.

local police officer...he? she?...never mind...From one article...said one officer was being boosted by another...say it isn’t so...the ladder was right there.

I know. How come the shooter didn't need a helper?

You make good points.

Also, the counter snipers took out the would-be assassin within a few seconds of him shooting Trump. How can they NOT have seen him there before the shooting? Maybe their rules of engagement for the day were for the shooter to take the first shot. Hmmmm.

Every factory since the year 2000 has barriers to unrestricted roof access. Seriously. There is no commercial use building I know of that makes rooftops accessible without special locks opened, permits filed, and safety partner required. External stair cages have retracted drops.

Yet something else I was wondering about.

If there’s a chicken coop under it that one’s already mine.

Just set up a Commission, chaired by VP Harris, and the directors of the Secret Service, FBI, and Homeland Security as participants.

That will clear all this up.

Food for thought. Pa is an open carry state. You can carry openly without a license. So, the prep could have a weapon and it was carried openly. Now what if the SS shot him before he took a shot. That would be murder. He was being watched and when he acted the SS took him out. The SS was following the law.

The Daily Mail has a photo of what looks like a big step ladder to the roof. I wonder how that got there? Or who left it there?

As an Air Force First Sergeant I had to learn to separate opinion from evidence. Sometimes, the hardest part is to put aside your attitudes and feelings and stick with what is clear, concrete and truthful.

Where were the SS’s surveillance drones? Undeployed! There’s obviously a government skunk in this woodpile.

Why isn’t somebody’s ass in the wringer right now!


I am certain that the hidden hands behind Biden have already called their operator who failed to the carpet.

Crooks was spotted by a local police officer, who was unable to stop him in time.

Unable to stop him because the cop failed to have his weapon on the ready and pulled a Uvaldi instead of taking him out.
