#40  I believe Trump AND his supporters were targeted. After hitting Trump he started shooting up the bleachers.

#39  Apparently the case has been turned over to the Federal Bureau of Idiots so naturally there will be a cover up.

My thanks to Fred, Frank G, and NoMoreBS for their posts, and for all the rest of you who added more information in the comments.

I wonder how many votes this will effect in November.

Any bets how long before some LSD or RINO uses this to call for greater Gun and Monitoring Controls?

#34  Once upon a time in mid 1960's, in Austin TX, I attended a speech given in a wide open venue similar to that in Butler PA today. Speaker was President Johnson. It was mid afternoon. There were multiple buildings with flat roofs in the vicinity. I scanned them all and could easily make out men standing on every roof, spaced a few dozen feet apart. I wonder how the perp was able to get to a convenient firing position without being challenged.

#33  I remember when Clinton came to Raleigh, there were State Troopers stationed on every bridge on I-40 on the way to the airport.
Secret Service usually doesn't mess around.

#31  This is the guy who killed the shooter
Posted by: Fred   2024-07-13 21:24  

#30  Yeah, that just seems, wrong. Even if the Secret service couldn't do it, they should have had state police on that roof and others. The fact people were pointing at the guy for MINUTES and nothing was done also raises some serious questions.

JUST IN: A guy outside the rally saw the shooter crawling on a roof and attempted to warn police and the Secret Service.
"We noticed a guy bear crawling on the roof with a rifle."
"I'm standing there pointing at him for two to three minutes, and the Secret Service is looking at us."
"Next thing you know, five shots rang out."
"Secret Service blew his head off."
"They crawled up on the roof and made sure he was dead."

#15  Interview with someone that saw the shooter BEFORE hand.

According to him, they tried pointing him out to the police and they did nothing and the Secret Service stared at them but did nothing til AFTER the guy fired.

Trump should hire Blackwater to beef up his security.
