Walking the site with a laser rangefinder, secret service are watching him & do nothing.

The building he climbed up on was occupied inside by the secret service.

Roof was too dangerous for secret service to be on despite it being a 2" pitch - the roof they positioned the sniper team on was a considerably steeper pitch so nonsense.

Crooks father had contacted the police because his son had not returned from a trip to the shooting range.

Sniper team were apparently aware of him on the roof.

Follow on from my assessment of the shooting - the sniper team we see in the video didn't shoot Crooks, it was the other team who had a clear line of sight, I haven't seen any footage of that team.
The snipers we do see thought they were getting shot at which is understandable given there proximity to Trump.

I also found out this morning that chat gpt will tell you the ingredients to make explosives, the only thing missing are the quantities of ingredients needed.

The mountains are calling & I must go.

Exactly. Until the recent past coppers had to be big and fit. The DEI I am referring to is not about skin colour or religion, as I said previously I like my coppers big and honest.

One more point

"
By the way I am still waiting for a retraction of the libellous comment you posted yesterday. Obviously you cannot substantiate it, so kindly withdraw it."

I missed your libellous post, could you repost it please, that would make the pompous deluded one doubly libelled

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

Quoting anything out of its context is meaningless. It was not addressing who was responsible for shooting Trump. It was addressing the division in US society that has created the circumstances when such things are possible. This is the WHOLE comment:-

“I woke this morning to this news.

It’s shocking but unsurprising given the divisive nature of current US politics.

Opinions clearly differ on who and what is responsible for the divisiveness.

Some Republicans have rushed to blame the Democrats, including Biden, for it, saying their attitude towards Trump is entirely to blame.

Unsurprisingly others disagree. Me included. I believe it’s primarily Trump’s responsibility caused by his attitude and behaviour in the last 10 years, which reached the bottom in 2020 with his attempt to deny democracy. Now his attempts to avoid justice stick in the craw of every law abiding person.

I hope this sends enough shockwaves through the USA to stop it, but I fear it will make it worse.”

I was reacting to the fact that something like this had happened and commenting on the poisonous political nature of American politics since Trump arrived on the scene, which culminated in him trying to overturn the 2020 election.

In no way was I suggesting anyone but the shooter was to blame for the actual event. People need to take responsibility for their own actions whatever the circumstances or provocation. He made me do it is not a defence.

I trust that this is now clearly understood. It ought to have been anyway.

Trump has promised a less abuse laden speech at the convention and a more thoughtful one, so perhaps he too is acknowledging things have gone too far. We will see.

So I await the retraction.

Crooks had an encrypted phone so likely he was communicating with someone, I'd bet on this not being over.

An interesting morning though, Biden now has COVID after previously saying he'd step down if he gets sick.
The Democrats are still pushing the narrative that Trump is the anti christ.

Tenacious D have split for being evil c***s

Democrats are psychotic.
