[You are playing for the wrong team. This was complete negligence. No one cares to see you run cover for these scumbags who let this happen.]


I’m not running cover for anyone. Did they fail? Certainly. But it’s not a unique failure, either here or anywhere else, and they did stop the guy within seconds of him firing his first shot.

You have to have almost superhuman abilities to get to a politician in a place like North Korea where the security people can literally kill, with no bag limit, anyone who looks remotely suspicious, whether or not he’s armed. The issue for protection gigs involving politicians in free societies is that suspicious individuals can’t be shot out of hand, and any outdoor event with a cast of thousands involves tracking multiple individuals, the outcomes of which are unclear until the event is over.

Assassins don’t have neon signs pointing to them. False positives are all over the place. A Youtuber and former SEAL team operator talks about the time he was involved in Obama’s detail as what could have been a vehicle bomb was allowed get within range without it being shot to pieces. It got within striking distance and left without being stopped.
