Shooter was a secret service agent firing at someone they thought had a gun. Suspect was arrested, no word yet if they ACTUALLY had a gun or not.
(I know, I know, NYP, but after going through 5 articles, this one seems to have the most detail.)
“Initial reports suggested two people were firing at each other. However, sources said investigators now believe the Secret Service agent was the only shooter.”
no word yet if they ACTUALLY had a gun or not.
CNN via (HBO)Max reporting that they found an AK-47 in the bushes:
Law enforcement officials found a weapon and other items left behind by the suspect where he was positioned in the bushes near the Trump International Golf Club in South Florida on Sunday.
“In the bushes, where this guy was, is an AK-47 style rifle with a scope; two backpacks, which were hung on the fence and had ceramic tile in them; and a GoPro. … So, those are being processed right now,” Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw said.
Tile? I’m trying to see what he was doing with two bags worth when he was out for blood.
This violence has no place in our election process, and I hope against hope that it can end.
Ceramic tiles are used in bulletproof vests.
So he had two backpacks hanging on the fence behind him as a bulletstop.
Oh oh oh
Shows what the shit I know.
The more you know! Do doo do doot! :)

Everything they say is to distract from the fact that they have no policies that improve the lives of the vast majority of their constituents.
They have concepts of policies…
A decade after stating they’re working on a plan, years after saying it would be unveiled “in two weeks”. What a disappointment, that we’re forced to take these obvious pathological liars seriously again.
If guns are good, and more guns mean more safety, why are they shooting at someone just because they have a gun?
Guns are only good when I have a gun. When you have a gun, then I’m terrified for my life and have to stand my ground. Especially if I’m “defending” property that may or may not be mine.
A Secret Service agent was one hole ahead of Trump while he was golfing and spotted a rifle barrel sticking out of a fence in the golf club, Sheriff Ric Bradshaw of Palm Beach County said at a news conference. The agent “immediately engaged” with the person holding the rifle, who fled. Bradshaw confirmed that law enforcement officials had a potential suspect in custody.
Ngl I wish someone had taught the guy proper fieldcraft. You don’t expose your barrel from a hide.
Guns arent the problem!!! /s Let’s make it all about him. Asshole.
Shooter (if he ever actually got a shot off) is an American who has tried to recruit other to fight in Ukraine against Russia. Curiously, he is also a former Trump voter.
His X account, which has now been suspended, included a number of posts about Trump. “@realDonaldTrump While you were my choice in 2106, I and the world hoped that president Trump would be different and better than the candidate, but we all were greatly disappointment and it seems you are getting worse and devolving,” he wrote in one post in June 2020. “I will be glad when you gone.”
As soon as this happened, his team immediately started requesting donations. Sorry, folks, I call bullshit. There was no actual danger here, just exploiting his cult

Umm …
"Secret Service officials said Donald Trump was between “3 and 500 yards” away from the suspect.
“But with a rifle and the scope like that, that’s not a long distance,” officials said."

I think I could probably take him out from 3 yards away.
They mean 300.
I would die laughing if the shooter turned out to be a Swiftie.
I guess it was too soon for me to put my cope ear bandage back on
Oh well
The guy with the rifle was just there for a peaceful sight-seeing tour. Now he’s a political prisoner because he exercised his second amendment rights. Anyone arrested for this is a hostage and a patriot and should be pardoned. Free the September 16th patriot!
Just watch him claim how ‘in danger’ he was…
