Attempted assassin of Trump has been identified! Your thoughts?

[Juxtapose]

WARNING: R. I. P TO THE INNOCENT CIVILIAN THAT WAS KILLED! ANYONE CELEBRATING THIS TRAGEDY IS GOING TO GET REPORTED AND PERMANENTLY BLOCKED. WE DON'T CELEBRATE ATTEMPTED POLITICAL ASSASSINATIONS HERE AND THE SECRET SERVICE DOESN'T LIKE THAT. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

It is quite apparent that the left has declared war on Conservatives, former black democrats who left the party and men as a whole (with the exception of leftist beta males)

[PA19062024]

If that's the case, then it's a war they can't possibly win.

[SkatPak392]

We just have to go scorched earth now. There is no other way to resolve this.

Right now we are dealing with the modern day direct descendants of Nazis of Germany, who were allowed to immigrate here into America during and after WW2.

That much is clear.

[Avicenna]

Shooter donated to ActBlue and his Insta indicates he's Antifa. Not a surprise.

[Syntosi]

He is also registered republican and wears a demolition ranch shirt which tells me he is not in fact Antifa.

[Avicenna]

@Syntosi: As I have previously told you, a number of Democrats registered as Republicans to vote for Nikki Haley in the primaries. Actual Republicans don't donate to ActBlue.

His Insta proves you're wrong (whatever he might have been wearing).

Really poor attempt as gaslighting.

[Juxtapose]

@Syntosi it's almost like you have never heard of infiltration before. Why would an assassin be obvious?

[Syntosi]

@Avicenna
The instangram you are thinking of is a troll account that is impersonating the shooter. You are swallowing shitposts as we speak.

[Syntosi]

@Juxtapose
And here starts the conspiracy theories. Go ahead, get it out of your system.

[Juxtapose]

He donated to ActBlue.

[Syntosi]

That is not confirmed and is older than both his registration as a republican and presumably his purchase of his shirt which is from a right wing youtube channel. Even if you want to make the claim that he was left wing at the time he donated, it does not appear to still be the case today and I hope you realize that people can change their minds over time.

[Juxtapose]

@Syntosi did it not occur to you you probably have to register to be in the Republican party to even get in the event and you want to blend in? Don't be an idiot.

[Syntosi]

So.. what? You think he planned to sneak into an event he did not know would happen 2 years ago to assassinate Trump? Man that is quite the contrived conspiracy theory.

[Syntosi]

Also for the record, I dont think the buildings he shot from was part of the event so he would not need to sneak in either.

[Juxtapose]

@Syntosi all he has to do is pick a future event with Trump after making his infiltration seem convincing.

People would be less likely to be suspicious of somebody seemingly supporting Trump going up to the top of a building.

The secret service really needs to step up their precautions. They should weld manhole shut, be on top of rooftops and have checkpoints.

[Juxtapose]

*manholes

[Juxtapose]

Someone I know in Germany said they used those exact precautions last time a president visited.

[Syntosi]

So.. register and wait two years? To sneak into buildings that was not part of the event to my knowledge and get a vantage point? As I understand it there was no point where he was stopped to get his voter registration checked.

You are spinning quite the conspiracy theory there.

[Juxtapose]

@Syntosi why wouldn't he register as an added precaution? What would it cost him?

[Syntosi]

If he registered the day before then maybe you would have a point. But he did not. He registered 2 years ago. Your argument does not make much sense. Waiting 2 years, when he could have done this at any time and at places far more convenient and with less security, makes no sense.

[Juxtapose]

@Syntosi why wouldn't he wait to make it more convincing? So people like you could make these arguments after he dies?

[Juxtapose]

And obviously this event did not have enough security because they should have had secret service members on rooftops.

[Juxtapose]

Very poor security.

[Syntosi]

He could have just gone to marilago or something and shot him there. Why wait until now? Also they did have secret service members on the rooftop, including snipers, which shot the suspect to death almost immediately.

Quite frankly you appear VERY uninformed regarding this event. Maybe you should just sit out of talking about the specifics if you dont know?

[Juxtapose]

@Syntosi well they could have fooled me about being on the rooftops since a person in the audience was warning the police about someone on a rooftop preparing a rifle that was obviously not a secret service member.

[Avicenna]

Where is the evidence that he registered two years ago as a Republican? Two years ago was also an election year and Pennsylvania has closed primaries. Some people don't vote for the party they're registered for.

Wearing a shirt that fits a caricature of a gun nut would be par for the course for a leftist trying to infiltrate and fit in.

But, hey, we're supposed to believe that some conservative Republican wanted to assassinate Trump in response to some Democrats' calls for an assassination.

[Juxtapose]

I blocked that piece of shit because he accused me of being in favor of the violence of January 6th and when I asked him to provide proof he demanded I prove my innocence, as if the burden of proof is on me.

Fuck that guy, you should block him too.

[Avicenna]

Nah, I don't block these shitheads unless they block me.

[Avicenna]

But everyone sees how deluded he is

[Juxtapose]

Fair enough but I learned a long time ago that if people make you miserable then it is your fault they are making you miserable if you don't block them.

I can't reason with a person like that and I do not feel all right after Trump was almost killed. I'm not going to deal with someone committing libel against me right now.

[Juxtapose]

Good luck debating with that piece of shit. He will never debate in good faith.

[Avicenna]

What an idiot- Mar-A-Lago wouldn't have offered the same opportunity to take a shot at Trump, is easier to protect, and the shooter lived an hour away from Butler.

[KrakenAttackin]

@Juxtapose. Yes, security either did break down or it was simply poorly planned, or both. Ford a skilled rifleman a 150 yard shot is easy, as demonstrated by the counter sniper team.

[Juxtapose]

@KrakenAttackin ^^ exactly.

[Avicenna]

If the topic weren't so serious, it would be hilarious watching the Democrats twist themselves into pretzels trying to find any BS excuse to escape accountability for their constant propaganda and rhetoric against Trump as well as their open calls for assassinating him. But, hey, if they are to believed, none of that had any effect on the murderer who tried to assassinate Trump.

It's pathetic that the Secret Service refuses to take responsibility for the murderer getting shots off at the rally. Why do we pay their salaries and benefits if they can't do the job, and that begins with those leftist hacks in charge of the Secret Service.

[Kelley1]

Just like Sirhan Sirhan, Thomas Matthew Crooks was a CIA mind controlled patsy with the assassination attempt assisted by the secret service. The difference was there was no backup shooter since it is almost impossible to miss a standing head shot by some that practiced shooting when shooting from the prone position from a distance of less than 450 feet. If their was a backup shooter he didn't have time to fire a fatal shoot because Trump ducked before he realized the shot by Crooks was not fatal.

[Telekinetic-Potato]

It’s sad that our country has fallen to a place where this is happening and let’s be real, no one is surprised or shocked.

it’s obvious this was organized and this guy wasn’t acting alone

there’s a reason Tucker Carlson said “there’s this weird spiritual side to the powers that be” or whatever and then some psychic predicts all of this and there’s obvious planted “witnesses”

[sawno]

Predictable and predicted by various people. First they try to win fair, then they try to win unfair, then they have to kill you. Not neccesarily thinking establishment but left wing spectrum as a whole. It reminds me of the pim fortuyn assasination in my own country.

[Justneedtokno]

I honestly don’t think he should have been shot this is not the solution to win the presidential election if that’s what they were going for. If this man actually died, he would have been a martyr or. immortalized in history, a legacy like MLK or Kennedy something in history and this isn’t the way to go let him live.

[CaptainSmartass]

The kid who tried this honestly got what was coming to him. He was clearly a few sandwiches short of a picnic if he thought he'd get away with it. As you said, the Secret Service "doesn't like it".

Come to think of it, how come they're called the Secret Service, when we've all heard of them? Surely the idea is that no-one knows about them, hence the word secret.

Simples...

[Sasahara]

Glad they caught the shooter and Trump survived.

[noohair]

I bristle when pundits compare anyone to Hitler. It is ridiculous, bombastic and a sigh of ignorance of history. This hyper rhetoric is a device to normalize the concept that if someone is Hitler, they should be killed. It is a sick and evil attempt to hold on to political power at any cost.

[KrakenAttackin]

@noohair. Let's also add that Hitler was a LEFT winger (a national Socialist).

[PA19062024]

@KrakenAttackin No he wasn't. Having the word 'socialist' within the name of one's political party doesn't automatically mean it's actually socialist. If that's the case, then the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (a. k. a. North Korea) is democratic and belongs to the people.

[KrakenAttackin]

@PA19062024 Yes he was. The DPRK was never a democracy, Germany was. Hitler was the head of the National Socialist Workers Party and was lawfully elected. Own this.

[PA19062024]

@KrakenAttackin What policies of Hitler's were actually socialist? After coming into office (as a partner in a coalition with the conservatives), he, for example, banned independent labour unions. That isn't something a true socialist would do. He also persecuted political opponents when he felt his stranglehold on the country was secure enough. That's also something socialists don't do. He had the backing of the (very conservative, politically) German Army, President Hindenburg (before he died in 1934) and believed in the superiority of the Master Race. There's nothing "socialist" about any of those things.
You don't understand socialism. Own this.

[Juxtapose]

@PA19062024 "He also persecuted political opponents when he felt his stranglehold on the country was secure enough."

LOL considering at the kangaroo court bullshit Trump has gone through and the recent assassination attempt? Are you serious?

[PA19062024]

Oh, I see. You think the US Democratic Party is "socialist". It isn't, not by a long shot (pardon the pun). If the Democrats are socialists, then I'm a green transgender Martian.

[noohair]

I do believe that people are missing the point I am trying to make about Hitler and the Nazis. Nazi Germany is the only country to create Industrial murder. The camps were murder factories. Bids were accepted and contracts awarded to build Gas chambers, Poison gas and ovens to burn the bodies. This was organized industrial murder. There is no other regime in history that committed murder in such a systemized way. To compare anyone to Hitler is bombastic ignorance.

[DarkLegacy]

Usual suspects

[RoronoaZoro8]

Glad he made out OK.
