Using a drone like this is not something a 20 year old with no military experience would do.

This indicates that he received sophisticated military instruction.

Who did he get it from?

I thought I had heard that but wasn’t sure so didn’t want to say so.

Thanks for the link and for confirming it. Kind of a strange thing for her to do don’t you think? Especially at the convention.

I think Trump asked her to come and talk to him there.

We need you and other smart and well-informed Freepers to work for Trump in his administration and in Congress. I am serious.

“What is that FBI doing in your illustration?”


I didn’t ask the person who created the meme. I was afraid to.

And she went. That’s even more strange.

I wonder if he showed her a picture of her house? :)

I don’t think I’d want to schedule an event competing with a Trump rally in a small city. Or was the airport in a bigger place? (I’m pretty dumb about east coast)

The 20 year old kid was smart, agile and willing to die. Don’t underestimate him.

Crooks had the remote detonator, too. The cop may have caused Crooks to just shoot and forgo whatever he was planning with the explosives in the backpack. Or maybe the cop’s discovery of him wasn’t bothering him at all.

Maybe he intended to set them off right when making his shot or just after, in order to disappear into the resulting chaos, but was -at last- fatally hit before he could do so.

I wish we would stop talking about all the hoaxes that the Democrats have done and called them criminal conspiracies. That is exactly what they are especially the Russia Russia. Hoax implies a bit of levity. Criminal conspiracy does not.

Good question. Another poster here was saying that an analysis of the angles involved would tell us whether it was Crooks, or the SS sniper who shot Trump. If I’m understanding him/her correctly.

How could they possibly rig a “security” team that had a couple of minutes to pull Trump from the stage?

Biden even said Trump was about to have a bad week with that sinister smile he gets.
