I'd call it very important breaking news but what ever.
Exactly!!!! Thats why it goes in the Dedicated sub forum. Whatever.
Unbelievable. I’m not sure where to start.
A Report is surfacing that the man on the rooftop WITH A RIFLE was reported to the secret service and they did not take action.
multiple sources- here’s one:

DONT believe or trust corrupt partisan media relative to Trump!
Wait until facts follow from investigation.
History in the making.
When you hear the first shot…RUN!
IMHO this is very suspect, The FBI counter sniper team was already facing the direction of the shooter as if they already knew where he was. Secondly the fbi gets a perfect head shot immediately on the shooter. Thirdly the shooter used the "evil" ar15 platform as a sniper rifle instead of a reliable bolt action such as a mauser or mosin most commonly available. First rule of assassination , get rid of the assassin.
A commenter on another site claimed the countersnipers said they had orders not to fire until shots had been fired. They did not cite a source.
It does seem that way.
DO NOT WORRY!! Biden's DOJ will thoroughly investigate this matter.
The Warren Report, part two.
From what I can discern........Don is very fortunate that his podium position had a definite headwind. Note the big flag in the background.
If the bullet's flight was only about ONE inch right......at 142 yards......…..😞
Count our blessings.
Larry Flint now Trump. People been yapping about similarities between jfk and Trump but I don't see it.
So I hear the shooter "borrowed" the rifle from parent (like sandy hook) and was about 400 feet from Trump. From what I've seen on videos a light breeze and the cops, SS waited until shots rang out?
I would think the skies would be buzzing with drones and counter snipers on every roof top. Let me guess budget cuts. Or deep state staking Trump out there like a goat on a lion hunt.
I wonder if the democRATS will try and use this to ban ARs?
"Local" LEO confronted the shooter just prior to him shooting at Trump. Now it's claimed that communication SNAFU delayed the counter sniper response giving time for the shooter to get a shot off.
Lack of coordination or intentional?
Shooter 'terminated' by possibly a 3rd counter sniper team not shown in the original videos? Over watch from the very obvious water tower not utilized? Two counter sniper teams staring at an open field of previously vetted onlookers while obvious high points left unchecked? Seems a cluster flap of incompetence.
99% the Secret Service stepped on their collective pee pee's. The head lady of S.S. needs to be fired yesterday.
This is a travesty equal to Ruby Ridge and Waco.
I heard Trump will probably be indicted for his own attempted assassination lol
"Independence Now, Independence Forever."

I should have also mentioned if Don really wanted to know "how close he came......"......all he would have to do is ask his son Eric (which is probably what he actually did).
You see.......as of a few years ago, Eric Trump was a fairly avid benchrest shooter. As was mentioned on the benchrest board a few times.......he(would shoot), and his wife, would take in a few registered matches each year.
Until those comments(by those who had met him at the matches) came up on the board........I had NO idea.🤔😳
So I've been wondering if the dude had buck fever or mis-matched ammo to barrel twist?
