2. Why doesn't trump just give the families money himself?

You're joking, right?

As an aside, no way was that a bullet that grazed his ear.

Round velocity at 200 yards, typical round

5.56 mm 2600fps (typical AR15 ammosexual round)
7.63x39 1800fps (classic AK-47 clone round)
7.62x51 2400fps (bog standard NATO and classic battle rifle or medium game hunter round)

At a range of basically zero inches as the round passed the lump of lard masquerading as a head, at multiples of the speed of sound, a graze would have blown his eardrum out.

As someone who has had his eardrum ruptured (too close to a bad lads boom thing) believe me, Lard Lad wouldn't have been standing and waving his stubby little paw about. It is excruciatingly painful, massively disorientating and balance and orientation is shot.

Eagerly awaiting details. How many shots? Why didn't at least some in the crowd panic? Was it not clear they were shots? Why did tfg have his shoes off?

Of course, motive.

And how the Secret Service could be that inept.

Several have mentioned this guy wouldn't have been allowed at his then age to contribute to a PAC. It's not an uncommon name, so thinking it could be someone else.

And I do think the problem with being an idealized cult figure is you foment the crazy, which can turn on you if you fail to live up to expectations.

... the shooter's incompetence is not readily explainable.

Nor is the Secret Service's.

Absolutely.

Like tfg never called Biden and the Democrats a threat to democracy?

Off Topic

The Pittsburgh Synagogue shooter lived a few miles from me. This shooter lives even closer. I've been on his street countless times.

His face was not covered by blood.

His face was not covered by blood.

But "covered in blood" sounds so much more dramatic!

I know I said it upthread, but I'm so pissed. I'm gonna say it again. Why the fuck didn't the Secret Service have snipers on every one of those fucking buildings?

Considering the math and science prize he won, as noted upthread, the kid was smart enough to know he'd never get out of there alive. As morbid as it is to say, I'm betting it was suicide by Secret Service With the added bonus of becoming famous.

This will piss you off even more, in that case.

One officer climbed to the roof and encountered Crooks, who pointed his rifle at the officer. The officer retreated down the ladder and Crooks quickly took a shot toward former President Donald Trump, and that’s when the U.S. Secret Service counter snipers shot him, said the officials who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing investigation.

It might also explain why he was wide of the mark.

It did seem to me to be a little off for what I understand a high powered rifle would do. So ya that glass report could be accurate

Shot one evening.

Back on the links the following day.

If memory serves me, I believe Trump once said that people are welcome to bring guns to his rallies.

God saved Joe Biden from being shot at all.

Don’t go putting ideas into the Devils mind.

Translation, he was in a foul mood, no-one was there, and he couldn't hit the broadside of a barn.

Wait I thought Zee Orange Furher had claims he was shot in the ear, now it claims the shooter missed....

[Suranis]

Is it just me or are there no pictures of the wider crowd out there. There's pictures of the podium and the immediate surrounds facing the podium, and pictures of him being walked off facing up into the sky, but I haven't seen anything showing how big the actual crowd was. You would have thought showing a couple of thousand people lying on the ground would be dramatic.

I'm kidding of course. Even with the fucker bleeding, photographers were afraid to show how poorly attended the rally in a field in the middle of nowhere was because they would never be invited back.
