“”Trump Shot” Thread Was Closed. Can We Start Again.

The Administrator saw fit to close the thread on the attempted assassination of Former President Trump.

Perhaps we can start again, having a civil conversation about how this “event” is going to alter the course of History.

If the shot had been just 1 inch further to the right, we would all agree that history would surely be changed, as The Former President would in all likely hood be dead from a massive head wound.

But for what ever reason, pure luck probably, the bullet missed any vital parts.

Enough hours have passed and enough facts gathered so anybody interested should have a good idea the chain of events.

First, it is obvious that this was not a “Staged” event. The shooter was real, the bullets were real, the deceased attendees and injured persons that got caught in the line of fire were real, the dead suspect, a mister Crook, was real.

So where do we go from here. I will give my opinion.

Unlike many of the news pundits, Polititians, and various interviewed citizens, this is NOT a time for prayers and some phony” Kumbaya Moment”. It is now time for President Trump to go scorched Earth.

He should emphasize the fact that from the very first day he came down that escalator in 2016 to announce his intentions, the entire Liberal/Progressive/, Socialist/Democrat “Swamp”, along with their willing lackeys in the Main Stream Media, has been out to destroy him. That entire Russian Hoax fiasco, the phony impeachments, the 100% negative reporting on his every action, the recent indictments based on if not complete phony charges, charges based on a convoluted idea of how our Justice System works.

And now, they tried to kill him. Let me repeat that .They tried to kill him.

But, and this is a big But. The fact that someone tried to kill Trump, which by any standard is the most reprehensible act one can perform, should not be a reason to alter one’s vote. Your vote should be based on your true feelings as to the direction this Country should take based on how President Trump performed in his first 4 years , and how President Biden has performed in his first 3 1/2 years.

A civil discussion saying those that believe this was staged are wrong. Then pivoting to the same old 3 Ina half year drivel of dems being bad and THEY TRIED TO KILL HIM.
You're better than this.

This is America and in America lone gunmen are so ubiquitous as to border on the cliche. I think we should count ourselves fortunate that his only target was Trump.

If this was a mass shooter with a semiautomatic rifle a bump stock and some high capacity magazines things could have been much worse.

Could you imagine a repeat of the Las Vegas incident but at a political rally. If it was me I would avoid any outdoor political gathering until after the election because people are thinking about it now and our gun control laws allow for too many crazy people to have access to firearms.

And I am voting based on performance. I simply have no idea what trump did while POTUS that makes his supporters so giddy. Maybe the hatred he spews all the time?

At any rate, I don't see why the right is so upset that some on the left are calling it staged. You guys have been doing that shit for years now on anything bad that happens regarding guns, etc. Enjoy your fucking cake. You baked it.

Lets turn to page 17 in your Republican hymnal shall we?

1. We need to get God back in our lives.

2. Thoughts and prayers.

3. This is what happens when you create "gun free zones".

I do take exception to your statement that his only target was Trump.

Behind Trump were hundreds of his supporters. The piece of human scum let no less that five rounds off, paying no mind that anything that did not get stopped by Trump was going to his one of his supporters.

The random disregard for human life portrayed by this piece of shit tells me he was just as satisfied with taking out those victims as he was Trump.

I take your point. I mean no disrespect to the innocents who were killed. But the target was Trump. My point was that it might not be a safe place to be close to either Trump or Biden until after the election.

Butler county is 55% republican. Why didn't local law enforcement secure that building? As explained on Fox news the secret service will tell the local the law enforcement to secure a structure outside the perimeter most of the time. Reason for that is there's just about 3,000 secret service agents.
