I'm not going as far as saying I wish he'd killed him, because that's not ideal either, or terribly nice. This could not have been choreographed better for him though. I'm not suggesting it was, by the way. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I’m sure presidential candidates get just about as much as the current president. Maybe they aren't sending Trump their "best people" Questions must be asked how this young lad got his hands on a gun at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mozam76 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 How many shots did the fella manage to fire off? I find it unfathomable that he was able to hit his ear and then miss with every other one. It’s not as if the target moved any distance between being hit and the next shot. He’s either bought a rifle from the fairground and been incredibly lucky once, or the intent was never to kill. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A big risk in a society that has free availability of firearms. Hopefully this can be de-escalated. Edited July 14 by Michael W 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked like he narrowly missed with the first shot then started firing wildly in the hope of hitting something in the general area. The “general area” hasn’t moved though. I would understand him missing with any subsequent shots if the target was on the hoof or whatever, but Trump is literally in the same place as the shot that hit. He shouldn’t have to fire wildly (and miss) at a target that hasn’t moved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
