Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

brother, you're a conspiracy theorist.
It's questionable how he got up there, but evidently, he did, and they fucking killed him.
From what i've read, he crawled up there shortly before/after trump got up to speak, he hadn't exactly been sitting up there the entire time. Trump literally was under a pile of secret agents, that was the first thing they did. It's likely they confirmed shooter down by the point he stood up, if not, trump was just stupid. He's done stupider things.
the "would" was definitely interesting, but it's clearly not even a wound. So therefore, yes it could heal in four days, especially if you have extended healthcare for it.
Oh btw, that kid was reported to police, who weren't in contact with secret service, for some reason. This is all known information. People were trying to draw attention to him, before he started shooting.
you must not be familiar with assassination attempts historically. Did you know some dude just walked up to shinzo abe and shot him point blank with a pipe shotgun? Surely that wasn't real.
Everything you say or 'what you read' is demonstrably false.
From what i’ve read, he crawled up there shortly before/after trump got up to speak, he hadn’t exactly been sitting up there the entire time
IDK what kind of propagandised and filtered news you get in the banana republic.
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c51ydg792ggo
Even that article is wrong bcs there are plenty videos where the public see this dupe get on the roof 30 minutes before, not just "one kid".
No way this would happen in reality.
I have followed this show realtime and didn't buy it for a minute.
Reporting he was "shot trough the ear" and not having any sign of any wound 4 days later in 4K close ups is not possible.
Extended healthcare can't do miracles. What a laughable excuse.
It’s likely they confirmed shooter down by the point he stood up,
Sure, do you actually believe the potocol is no to take into account a second shooter?
And you admit he got up after this.
Standing there wanting to get his shoes and then having his planned photo.
The SS stood somewhat around him, in no way were they 'piled up' on his as they should be constantly.
Shinzo Abe or other events are irrelevant.
OC attempts can happen, but here nothing adds up and you can't but laugh at this pathetic spectacle or the fools believing it.
i didn't say one kid saw him? And getting up there 20 minutes before the rally is not "a long time" that's 20 minutes. Should they have known about it? Yes, did they? Yes. Did the ground police do anything about it? No, because they didn't have functional communication.
i mean this is literally the one valid explanation for why this managed to happen at all, the only other option is that it was a complete conspiracy, and i've seen no evidence to support that, and given the fact that police, and secret service, are two different entities, i'm going to align with the former.
he wasn't "shot through the ear" the reporting is just wrong. It's evident from the video, from the bleeding, and from the wound, he simply wasn't "shot in the ear" he was grazed by a bullet at best, cut his ear on the way down at worst.
for a minor injury? Yeah it can. I've seen 2nd degree burns go away in a couple of days from ointment. Shits wack when you have the right tools for the job.
that's possible, but are there are any good circumstances for this to be the case? Even when he did stand up, SS was crowded around him, it would be very difficult to take a good shot from that point, at which point SS are likely watching like a hawk.
i mean yeah... If you watch the video, he literally does this. The most famous image of that year was literally him standing. Like idk why you're acting like this is WITHOUT A DOUBT proof that it's conspiracy, it's evident that it happened.
not everybody thinks clearly in situations like this, especially old people, the job of the SS is to protect him, if they deemed it unimportant, they would've carted him off sooner.
you can literally watch the video, the center mass of his body is very clearly blocked, the head is not a particularly good target, as evidenced by the fact that he fucking missed.
I mean yeah, to this particular event, but do you think his killing was a conspiracy?
i mean, it's literally just weird at best, i've seen weirder, look at any shooting through history. They're all weird as fuck.
