Assassination attempt on Donald Trump - threadbans in OP

Crooks shooting position was like something youd expect from a corny 90s McGuyver episode.

A sniper shooting the president from an adjacent roof.

If you pitched that to a tv studio youd be told to rewrite it. Too simplistic. We're looking for a sense of realism.

Not a stereotypical "libtard", not a lefty. Obviously not female. And ancient.

Yes but does it not filter back to the right to bear arms?

There seems no point whatsoever in the use of the things apart from mass killings and healthy ammunition sales.

I assume the weapon is a bit short lived too, and would soon need replacement.

What on earth are you on about, typical of a certain demographic …a well constructed piece of gibberish

It's mad that the shooter used a legally purchased gun that is so powerful it scares police away. When will they sort that?

I saw a random on tiktok point out that because there were 4 victims (the guy who died, Trump, and 2 other who are injured) this counts as a mass shooting. Another stat.

Latest from BBC on the gunman.

The latest detail to emerge is that he was a member of a local gun club in Jefferson Hills, Pennsylvania, roughly 50 miles (80km) from where the assassination attempt occurred.

At the end of the day with all the off topic personal prejudices and bias out of the way, the conclusion is this

The Leftist media has made it very easy for everyone to believe everything negative about Trump, it's now very easy to believe lies that are claimed about him. Example, he was found guilty of rape, with zero evidence by a jury, no way anyone else would be convicted in a court of law with zero actually evidence, just a story, true or false, it still needed evidence, in a court, unless you're Trump, no evidence needed, guilty.

Possible motive for a registered republican assassin: turbocharging the base - as discussed on Alex Jones 5 months ago

Ivan Raiklin: “If they [assassinate Trump], option 2, behind Trump, is going to be so much better for us and so much worse them.”

Alex Jones: “I was about as to say, If they kill him, that’s best case scenario from a sick level. From a sick level medium, ‘Oh, please kill him.’ I mean, it’s so good after that.”

Raiklin: “Oh, it’s going to be the best cleansing and the fastest cleansing that we’ve ever seen in my lifetime. I guaran—, I access, with almost certainty, with the highest level of confidence, that if they assassinate Trump, it is so game over for them.”

You can not even see how brainwashed you are. It is frightening. If some Qanon lunatic came out with that you would rightly rip them to shreds.

This US type left v right language has crept into European politics in recent times and has sadly made it onto our shores. It’s absolutely pathetic and I cringe every time I hear or read someone over here use it to define themselves or other people, especially people they don’t even know. Madness.

You know what your dealing with on here.

Also he is wrong registering as Republican is popular by the lefties to vote against Trump Pennsylvania is a closed primary state be likely did it to vote against Trump

Much of this stuff has come from the US right (Steve Bannon etc). They have a deliberate policy of trying to create global culture wars…..it hasn't 'accidentally' spread to Europe, far from it. There are suggestions that various think tanks, lobby groups and even some non-mainstream media outlets in Europe are funded by shady billionaire types in the US pursuing an agenda.

The us supreme court heard a case recently they voted to make bump sticks legal eg this mechanism means it's easier to fire a rifle quickly this means potential assassin'or a mass shooter can potentially kill more people in a short time

Theres a mass shooting in America at least a few times every year

It seems there's a gap or delay in police talking to to the secret service in the event of a potential threat to the target which could be trump or Biden

Every location is different but it's common sense every building overlooking the venue has to be guarded at least within the range of a sniper rifle and this is up to the local police and the secret service to do a survey of the area around the venue long before the rally starts

The supreme court is mostly staffed by conservative judges who have no wish to support more laws to increase gun control so the only option is to increase security around certain political events to protect politicians from assassins

There could be use for a drone to watch over the perimeter in the case of high profile political events

And yet more witness statements confirmed she told friends about what happened before 2012. But they are just witnesses, no hard evidence so you will dismiss it. Your argument has already been debunked.

No point bringing up a 75% figure unless you can show the 25% had physical evidence and the 75% was zero evidence (aka witness testimony you ignore)

This is all off topic anyway, Trump was found by a jury to have raped a woman…. you dismiss it. It's as ludicrous as me dismissing the suspect tried to kill Trump…. I mean there's plenty of evidence he did…. but no jury will ever convict him if he's given a fair trial.
