Trump Assassination Attempt Investigations

It would have been bad for Anerica to lose a nominee that way. Sure, I'd love for him to go away forever, or even be locked up as he deserves. But I do not wish that fate on anyone, not even Trump.

But that was clearly shrapnel and a bad scratch in area that bleeds a lot. The fact that Trump lies, and plays the showman martyr "I took a bullet for America" is typical for his self serving schtick.
Someone shot 5-8 bullets directly at him. The fbi said he got hit by a bullet or part of one. So he took a bullet.
 
Discussion started in catch-all while it wasn’t clear whether Trump was the target or ever in danger.

 
Asking with sincerity: is it actually an “assassination attempt” if no shots were actually fired at the former president by a would-be assassin?

The first occurrence in July was absolutely an assassination attempt, obviously. This one, though? Sounds like the Secret Service found a guy hiding in the bushes with a gun and a scope. In other words, a Sunday in the free state of Florida.
 

“…
  • The FBI said Sunday it “is investigating what appears to be an attempted assassination” of Donald Trump. The former president is safe after shots were fired at Trump International Golf Club on Sunday.
  • A Secret Service agent spotted a rifle barrelsticking out of fence and “engaged” with the suspect, Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw said at a news conference late Sunday afternoon. The gunman was 300 to 500 yards away from Trump, a Secret Service official said.
  • A local sheriff’s office said a man taken into custody was “relatively calm” when detained. The suspect has not been named.
  • President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris are both “relieved to know” that Trump is safe and have been briefed on the situation, according to the White House. …”

I said the same thing. This was more of a concept of an assassination attempt.

Changed it to “Apparent” attempt for now.
 
Maybe it would be a good idea to ban both AK-47s as well as Trump's "supreme" AK47s? Maybe even the "Temptations" AK-47S too!

Were the side doors of the golf course locked?

Should we maybe arm the caddies and the cart boys?

Should we retrofit golf courses to have metal detectors and only one entrance and exit?

Should we consider stationing the National Guard at entrances to the golf course?

This was probably a mentally ill lone wolf. And gun control laws wouldn’t work anyway!

Have we considered that rap music and video games are too violent?

Thoughts and prayers!
 
Further proof of the epidemic of mental illness in this country. Civilian access to weapons of war is just a right of all Americans. Keeping these weapons out of the hands of the mentally ill is impossible to we have to harden the targets and pray harder.
