Some people are plain stupid . Gun not powerful enough yet it killed one and had left two in critical condition and others saying it's staged LOL .
the shot that echoed around the world. But was it a crack or a whizzz
Hardly loony left I'm sure Beechy is just citing a relative of his who was on the stage at the time.
The level of outright misinformation in this thread alone is astounding.
I'd say it's more likely the blood on his ear is from the secert service jumping on him and bundling him to the ground than a bullet brushing off him.
Imagine taking an oath to take a bullet for him.
bullet got him alright, hes very lucky to be alive
In this case, I'm inclined to say a bullet brushed his ear. You see him clutch his ear prior to them grabbing him.

Condoning murder,no surprise there.
The series of photos taken by the New York Times photographer Doug Mills are incredible including the one that captures the bullet.
It does look like the person named wasn't the shooter and on Reddit or something they've identified a 30 year old that seems more likely to be the person.
Thread taken over by the absolute loons from the Trump and Biden threads.
Absolute lunatics.
amazing pictures alright but its also amazing to see some photographers actually walked to the podium while it was still unfolding…..
Everything before 'but' can be safely ignored - no limiting principles.
But powerful enough to kill someone standing behind Trump? Maybe people who have been saying for years that Trump has a really thick skull have finally been vindicated…
…reddit! a credible source!
I'm sure theres some over there claiming it was really Obama disguised as Hilary and that the "shooter" killed was just a birdwatcher.
I'd be less inclined to trust reddit reporting on it.
Guy goes out to assassinate Donald Trump and ends up dead himself, with barely a scratch on Trump and probably ensuring Trump wins the 2024 Presidential Election.
Whatever your political beliefs is hard to not be appalled by CNNs extreme bias in coverage of this event.
That's America for ya,living the dream.
Crazy thing to have happened. What a dump of a country though, where anyone can pick up a deadly weapon and just try to kill anyone they like.
clearly something psychologically wrong with the shooter, neither here nor there now….
Hanlon’s Razor. Don’t attribute to malice what can otherwise be explained by incompetence.
Sky News Australia lol
Probably just a disgruntled pinko commie lefty that lived in a basement.
commie and republican, im not so sure about that!
Apparently that video is not the actual shooter. So I'd be very careful of sharing any stuff like this until the content is verified.
Yeah I'm thinking more Mark David Chapman than any committed political activist. Surely must have known there was next to no chance of making a clean getaway after the 'hit'…
A magic bullet perhaps?
Was there a grassy knoll as well?
