 What we're covering

• JUST IN: A shooter at President Donald Trump’s rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, Saturday night has been “neutralized,” according to multiple law enforcement sources.
  
• Trump was rushed off stage after loud bangs were heard at the start of the rally. The Secret Service says Trump is safe and under protective measures.
  
• A spokesperson said Trump is “fine” and referred to the shooting as a “heinous act,” but details on what exactly happened remain sparse.
  
• Trump was swarmed by agents on stage after the bangs were heard. Blood could be seen on his face, and he raised a fist to the crowd as he was rushed away.

Shooter was on a roof and was pointed out to the SS and police before the shots were fired. Possibility the rounds fired hit the teleprompter which shattered and shards hit Trump. With all the shots fired we are lucky more were not killed. If the shooter wanted to kill Trump he had to go for a head shot as Trump is wearing a ballistic vest when in public.  https://x.com/EndWokeness/status/1812273630702952543

YUP.

I'm half surprised there is no more traction here....

What happened after Abraham Lincoln was shot in 1865?

Head shot from over 200+ yards unless trained/practiced/windage favorable to do so is not something I would think your normal idiot would accomplish with any consistency.

I could hit a 12 by 12 steel plate at 327 yards (5.56) with a shot group of around 5".. and at one time my equipment and eyeballs were top notch. Pig hunting will make 
one accurate if there is any talent and decent equipment .

I was at the gun range a couple of times a week blowing though boxes of ammo and was killing pigs a few times a month with different calibers so I was at the top of my game. Again a head shot from 200+ is not an easy shot for most people.

Anything remind you of JFK?

I'll be going down for pointing all this shit out for the last time.

I did NOT commit suicide.

Right. So, SS and police knew the shooter was there and allowed this to happen.

Two words:

Civil War.

The attempt to assassinate Trump is unsurprising in the declining U.S. and global political climate. Mainstream media/propaganda outlets feed obsessive narratives, and the seeds from that fruit are flowering.

I am no fan of Trump or Biden, but ultimately, the MSNBC ruling class will engineer their destruction. The same actions they incite will come to them but with far worse consequences for all concerned. I do not wish to see that outcome, yet the prevailing winds aren't changing direction.

The prevailing winds just changed.

There's been a group advocating for the downfall of the US - "burn it all down" - AmIRight?

Guess what, they finally got what they hoped for. God save us all.

I can guarantee you the story is going to be much different from here on in just like it was after 9/11. There won't be an election. Mark my words.

twenty five to forty years ago I used to be able to get my shots in about a twelve inch pattern on a target at three hundred yards using my dads thirty thirty winchester with open sites.  That would after I practiced about five shots to figure the drop that occurs.  I grew up with that gun and always tried to get as good as my dad was before he died.  He was a Rifleman in WW11, his job was a sniper in the military.

Now, I can't even see the circles on the target at three hundred yards if I go down to the gun club across the street.  That is life.  It's crappy what happens to your eyes when you get old...er.  Too much screentime I think, the LED monitor is effecting my eyesight a lot.
