    But @Hobbes86 ..... if it were anyone else on here you would have scrolled right by it. Because you have some preconceived notion about the way I feel you had to add your comment. Please join the herf once in a while and I can tell you verbally how I feel on any subject without the emotionless background of a forum

    I'm not sure why you feel singled out, Pete. You weren't the only one I was directly responding to.

    If you view a call to decency as such a personal attack, then perhaps you are a part of the problem.

    Maybe I am.... but probably not. I'm shocked you can see me all the way down here from up top your cross. You're a better person than I will ever be. Your contributions to society are much greater than I could ever hope to achieve in my lifetime. Thank God I have someone in my life, like you Ian, to tell me how best to live my life. Without you I would be lost.

    Grow up you vicious little heathen.

    Trying..... everyday a little bit more and more. Not getting far but I am trying.

    18:12:21: Male agent: “Shooter’s down. We’re good to move.”

    18:12:22: Female agent: “Are we clear?”

    18:12:23: Agents: “We’re clear, we’re clear, we’re clear.”

    18:12:23: Male agent: “Let’s move, let’s move.”

    Agents start to stand up, lifting Trump.

    18:12:33: Trump: “Let me get my shoes, let me get my shoes.”

    Among all the chaos I thought it was kinda funny he ends up shoeless and wants his damn shoes back.

    Guy took his **** shoes off? Yeah someone just shot me but I think I'm just going to sit down and since I'm sitting down I'm going to take these fuçking Bruno malis off. They're pinching the shīt out of my toes.

    Man. He's ice cold bro...

    If he's like me he doesn't like his shoes, especially dress shoes tied too tight. And I'm a literal tenderfoot, I'd be beotchin' about having to walk anywhere after losing my shoes. "Fetch my flipflops, and bring the wool socks, my toes are cold."

    Residents of Bethel Park, Pennsylvania, where the suspected shooter lived, expressed shock at the news on Sunday.
    "It's a little crazy to think that somebody that did an assassination attempt is that close, but it just kind of shows the political dynamic that we're in right now with the craziness on each side," said resident Wes Morgan, 42, describing Bethnel Park as "a pretty blue-collar type of area."

    I saw this tweet on another forum, but I find it rather dubious that the SS sniper would speak publicly about the event at this early stage.

    I requested a source from the poster. I'll update if it is provided. I find nothing online. I'm not on X, so I can't see the tweet. Like I said, I find it dubious at best, but I also find it dubious that the shooter could be taken out within a few seconds after the first shots were fired, unless the counter snipers knew his location.

    So are you (or this guy, or whatever) saying this is a plot by the Biden team and his secret service dudes to allow the guy to take one free shot at Dumpty before they said enough is enough and they took them out?

    Or are you saying that Trumpty planned this with a perfect head tilt looking at the sniper so the guy would clip his ear off and he could pose with blood on his face to look like a superhero for the proud boys?

    I'm Confused because neither one of those narratives fit the facts. Why would they let a man pointing a gun at presidential candidate Just sit there and not do anything about it, only to blow him away after the ACT was done? Who does that benefit? And then after letting him shoot the guy, or take a shot, why would they then take him out? What would some gs15 supervisor in the secret service be up to in that case?

    It's just a tweet that I saw that I thought was worth posting here. Did you miss where I twice said I doubted its veracity. I did find later some sources discrediting it, such as Forbes. I also saw you link to the former Seal discussing the situation.

    What I also said was I doubt that the SS team only knew he was there at the instant he shot toward Trump. They would not be able to locate the shooter, target him, and kill him within 2-3 seconds of the first shots. The most likely scenario is, they knew there was someone on the roof, but did not know his intent, and from their vantage point, probably could not see him until he rose up over the roof ridge to take his shots. It is clear from photos of the SS snipers prior to the shooting that they were focused on the roof of the factory building, so it seems clear they were alerted to a potential threat.

    I do not know what the ROE is for SS details with a potential threat versus a confirmed threat, so with that, and what I just suggested about not being able to see him, probably accounts for the "three minutes" or so between spectators reporting to authorities his presence, and the shooting.

    On another note, while I didn't respond to your post right away, so have no record, your initial post suggested that I am some sort of Proud Boy acolyte or wannabe or whatever. You seem to have edited your post to remove that. Take that and stuff it right up your ass, Frank.
