1) “fire off” at the president? do people actually say that? wouldn’t it be “fire at” Do shooters fire off at things. I never “fire off” at a deer or anything.

2) the building was a nearly flat sheet metal pole barn type. about the safest and lowest slope roof next to a flat roof you can halve in that part of the country.

3) the counter sniper guys were on a much much steeper roof than the perp.

They, the ss advance team, has not ignored such hides since the 60's.

When I go to protests at the capitol, there are always snipers on high roofs overlooking.

They are always there.

This was a special case.

Were the other snipers women who cannot walk on slightly sloped roofs? Ain’t Affirmative Action wonderful.

If the buck stops here, why are you at work today?

It’s not incompetence. Any 12-year-old off the street, with no training whatsoever, knows you have to guard the rooftops.

This is deliberate, and she should immediately be taken into custody under charges of manslaughter.

I think this was a Sirhan-Sirhan planned out episode. Kid was fed info which site would be best, and a clean-up crew would ensure he was shot before he came off the roof.

Or fly the “Appeal to Heaven” flag like Ginny Thomas.

Oh wait, that’s terrorism.

There are a thousand different ways the Deep State could attempt an assassination of President Trump.

This was one way.

The Secret Service made the shot as easy as possible and bought as much time as possible for the assassin.

It was a true miracle that President Trump was not killed.

Way too much BS to unpack it all at this point..

I suppose it is perfectly reasonable to NOT put an SS on that roof..
It is an extreme danger to be on a roof like that in HEELS...

But.. WHY was there NO agent/ Spotter/ Guy paid minimum wage with a set of binoculars and a walkie talkie.
On the water tower?

Was it too high and a “safety” thing too?

Yes it does! Any potential sniper was required to check with the agents inside the building before climbing onto sloped roof. Too bad the official Sniper Check in Sign was not back from the printer…..

She lies.

The slope of the roof where Police snipers were is far greater than slope of roof where Crooks was.

Lie.

All Dems lie, as do their gov appointees.....

And why do we have a head of the SS who came from some sort of security position at Pepsi Cola? With its highly specialized mission, looks like the SS should definitely be an organization that promotes from within to fill its top positions.

They thought they could do even better than the JFK assassination.

The perp was to die immediately eliminating the need for a Jack Ruby that had to be discarded later due to "cancer".

Yeah, that’s better because - for one thing - if it was treason it could go to a Gitmo tribunal rather than getting buried at the feet of Merrick Garland.

Maybe the SS should recruit some roofers from the Midwest instead of fat chicks and beta boys.

Jill wanted her, she was once a SS gal on Jill's team. She was great at telling Jill how great she looked.
