There is only more more massive failure by SS that what occurred today. This is a trash take.

I am amazed they did not see the shooter crawling into position for his shots a mere 430 ft away. pic.twitter.com/oXJlWfWOMa
After he was pointed out by bystanders for at least two minutes to them. That's the part that's going to fuel the conspiracy theories. The guy on the BBC interview - if he never surfaces again that's going to be really suspicious.aTmAg said:
Don't bash the SS in any conspiracy nonsense. That makes us look like idiots. We aren't talking about the FBI here. They shoot the shooter impressively quickly.

That looks to be the shot after the one that hit him. His hand was on the podium when the first shot rang out. Then he moved his hand to his ear, and then started to pull that hand down when this picture was shot.Kunkle for Congress TX-34 said:

Zoom in right above President Trump’s shoulder and you’ll see a bullet flying in the air to the right of President Trump’s head following an attempted assassination. pic.twitter.com/FqmLBCytoW
I think the person killed was seated in bleachers to the right of the stage (perpendicular to the stage, rather than behind it). The shot comes from the left (Trump's right) and hits someone in the bleachers to Trump's left.HeardAboutPerio said:
The guy in white **** / red hat in bleachers falls at some time the report is heard. I think he was hit. Is there any more about some other people being shot?
If it were me or my family that was the victim, I would want Trump to show every act of defiance that he could.AggieKatie2 said:tylercsbn9 said:
I saw a tweet trump is still going to the ufc event tonight
No freaking way that's true right? If he does that is going to be the most badass thing ever
He shouldn't in my opinion. He should hold a short press conference tonight and thank the SS and medical personnel. Thoughts and prayers for deceased rally attendee. Wishing quick recovery for other victim, then call it a night.
It was a 130 yards.Kunkle for Congress TX-34 said:
Looks like he got the elevation right. Trained for it for sure.
I think he said he pointed it out to policed. Not SS. So I can imagine they aren't all on the same coms together. I imagine the SS is on encrypted coms.UntoldSpirit said:After he was pointed out by bystanders for at least two minutes to them. That's the part that's going to fuel the conspiracy theories.

SS reacted well. How proactive they are remains to be seen. Having a shooter with a rifle that close sure seems like a massive failure that should end careers. Get those private security resumes ready
It came from the same box as the pristine bullet in the Kennedy assassination.Anti-taxxer said:
How did the bullet not hit someone behind him?

Kinda weird...KatyAg01 said:
In this day and age, how is there not drone surveillance at events like this? Would likely go a long way to snuffing this kind of attempt out, if not at least having video documentation of how they got in position, what car dropped them off, etc.
Unlike Jan 6, this is truly a dark day in our history; third world countries are looking at this and saying, "Damn!"
7. 1. 3. Easy date for me to commit to memory given the area code for my cell. I won't let anyone on the left forget this day, especially if they utter the phrase "threat to democracy."
That's like saying a Jimbo was looking specifically at me while I'm in a crowd at kyle field. Just because he's looking in my direction doesn't mean he sees ME. Especially if he has binoculars. By nature, the field of view on binoculars is small.Science Denier said:aTmAg said:I think he said he pointed it out to policed. Not SS. So I can imagine they aren't all on the same coms together.

No. He said the SS was specifically watching him with binoculars as he kept pointing to him.

You can tell he notices the assassin just before the first shot is fired. That all occurred fast.AtlAg05 said:Check out this angle. Counter snipers see something and engage? #shooter #snipers pic.twitter.com/lD3J651SkJ

Here's the video of the SS sniper possibly returning fire.
