Young people these days don’t want to do their job, they just waste time texting on their phones 😒
If he was black the entire swat team would have come out guns blazing.
ok but have you considered that crooks might have just been a huge trump fan and was using a range finder in the hopes of blowing him an epic kiss from really far away
About an hour before the shooting, sniper team member Gregory Nicol told "GMA “Good Morning America” he saw Crooks take a rangefinder from his pocket. Though rangefinders were not banned from rallies, Nicol took Crooks’ picture and called in a warning of a suspicious presence.
“He was looking up and down the building," Nicols said. "It just seemed out of place.”
Lmao should have been arrested on the spot.
What if he got the rangefinder at a Trump golf course and wanted to have it signed though
This has to be deliberate conspiracy that the SS was in on.
Everything I’m reading says the secret service saw and reported a weird, maladjusted white person acting like a creep at a Trump rally. They probably encounter thousands of guys exactly like that.
The real story is the goofy local cop who followed the assassin up to the roof but then completely chumped out after seeing the assassin had a gun.
The creep had a fucking range finder. The roof was not too dangerous to staff. They had eyes on the shooter for 90 minutes. They had civilians aware he was there with a gun for multiple minutes. The SS lied about various conditions. This just doesn’t feel like mild incompetence.
Further, we know that FBI and other agencies have previously cultivated radicals and directed them towards acts of violence. Usually it ends in arrest, but the field guide, the practice, and the MO are all there.
No, not like that. More like no one in the upper echelons globally gets assassinated usually unless the guards are in on it
Eh. It’s really, really hard to stop one determined person who doesn’t tell anyone what they’re doing. To quote the RA - the SS has to get lucky every time, but a shooter only has to get lucky once. They have to stop every shooter.
It does illustrate something vital; the panopticon’s surveillance is not perfect. It can’t see everyone all the time. Individual actors can move through the gaps, or walk right in front of the cameras without being flagged.
Not sure if it matters but I have to keep reminding myself that the Secret Service detail assigned to former Presidents is much much smaller than what the sitting President gets and that people running for President don’t get any Secret Service protection during the primary season.
