Head turn likely saved him
Thank you for posting this. I'm already hearing "it was staged" non sense, as in, they wanted sympathy and not to kill him
Lol
Like hitting a moving target in the ear without the round going into the skull is remotely possible.
The skull is a weird thing. I know a guy who got shot in the head, the bullet rode around the skull and out. Tore the skin right side of his head off like a dog ear, but never penetrated the skull. Has a gnarly scar.
Also, I have a super right-wing buddy (like chem trails and tracking devices in COVID vax stuff), and he's convinced this is a government setup because the people in the background of the video didn't react by running in terror.
Lol that's great. I do know a bullet can do really weird things after entering a skull. In this case, the bullet hit his ear which was roughly an inch from the skull. A moving target at around 100 yards.
That wasn't a poorly shot taken in regards to accuracy by any means. But the hands of God did their job as per usual

The DNA report was talked about last night in the press briefing that was given.. it's probably standard protocol to run DNA once they find out some information- his dad bought the gun so they sampled both the kid and the dad for DNA match ?

That officer was the Jack Ruby. Making sure he didn't get away.

Such a small thing, but that interruption and the speed with which Crooks had to turn and fire probably saved Trump.
INSTEAD OF IMMEDIATELY CALLING AN ALL STOP.
In what universe does a reported sighting of a rooftop shooter go out over the radio and its business as usual?
We completely detached from reality on every facet of this.
If witnesses are to be believed, it's they who notified police. I'd bet the cop was acting on his own or at the behest of bystanders, or maybe even saw the same thing the bystanders were seeing.
Talking about he wore a mask long after covid - I think that's a red flag. Whenever I see people still with masks on today I wonder what are they thinking. I'm not saying that makes anyone a shooter. However, I do see these people as a mentally fragile people.Gator92 said:Trump shooter Thomas Crooks was 'bullied extensively' at school.

Secret Service presser coming up.
"I'm sure that won't make a bit of difference for those of you who enjoy a baseless rage over the decisions of a few teenagers."
Ask them where the kill shot CS was located. Curious minds want to know…

Presumably cop's head got to the top of the ladder and he saw a guy with a rifle turn and point it toward him. At this point he's got three options.
1) Finish climbing the ladder onto the roof, unholster his weapon and engage the shooter in an AR-15 vs. Glock gun battle. 99% chance he dies, most likely before he gets onto the roof in the first place. True, he would have died a hero and the shooter probably gets lit up by snipers before shooting at Trump, but unlike SS, the cop didn't sign up to sacrifice his life for the protectee.
2) I guess he could hang off the ladder with one hand and blindly fire his handgun in the direction of the shooter. That kind of crap only works in movies, could hit someone else, and may well still get him killed.
3) Do what he did, drop and (presumably) radio for help.
The major question I have, other than the obvious one about failure to secure the perimeter, is why communication between the local yokels and the Secret Service was so poor. Trump should have been off the stage within seconds of even a rumor about a guy with a rifle on a roof.

Corey Comperatore, the man who was shot dead at Trump rally yesterday blasted Biden on December 20 last year after Biden attacked Trump as "posing many threats to our country." Corey told Biden, "We're not stupid people. Stop talking to us as if we are."

If you held any hope that yesterday's events jarred any sense into the delusional left, just read through the comments on an NPR post. Their lunacy is unbounded and their brainwashing irreversible.
The shooter was not a lone wolf - instead just a less inhibited sheep of a huge flock.

man, i am just so sick over this and what is happening in this country.
a few days ago, I posted a clip of tucker carlson talking about how the deep state didnt like richard nixon, but he won by over 17M votes, so he was very popular, and what had to happen to get Nixon and Agnew shipped out and replaced with Gerald Ford. It sent shivers down my spine.
I dont think I have been more fearful of the federal government than I am right now. It's a very scary time.
I truly hope we find our bearings as a nation and as a people. we have truly lost our way.
plus, I found out that a friend I have known and worked with for over a decade was involved in a vehicle crash this morning and killed.
crappy day all around.

Snipers Set up with a known blind spot a few feet to the shooters left. Crazy how close this was to mayhem.

Didn't the USSS stating state the shot was 400 yards? I've read other sources stating same.

This blows my mind a little. You have a spot that is within rival range of the person you're supposed to be protecting and you don't have it secure and your snipers have very limited line of sight to it.
At the secret service presser did they just say because it was outside the "perimeter " by state law he was aloud to walk around with a rifle? They really are trying to blame gun control now

While the carry part is true it means an idiot defined the perimeter.

No. They were talking about the upcoming RNC. Specifically didn't talk about this event.
Are we to believe from the SS that there it's common for people to open carry 150 yards from Trump and this wouldn't raise any flags? Is that a normal thing at his rallies?
