No... it was an AR with no scope fired from the prone position by someone who definitely was not trained to land shots precisely at that range from that shooting position in a highly tense unsurviveable situation again all without a fucking scope
Tmz had a video of the moron opening fire and getting counter sniped
He didn't even have an optic?!? What an absolute idiot... haven't seen that video yet.
I mean... At the risk of landing on a list... Any infantry private could have landed that shot.
But if I were to do it it would be a larger round that's more resistant to the wind, capable of penetrating the light body armor the secret service wears, and from about 3 times the distance with 6x optics. There's at least a chance to E&E from that position and the likelihood of a kill shot is far higher.
He was mentally deranged. That's the sort of half-assery typical of people with mental problems.
He certainly was not trained to aim center mass.
Was it a camera phone video from the crowd? I saw where one guy said they tried to warn the SS because they saw the shooter.
So he basically thought he was going to 360 No-scope IRL?
...get wrecked, noob.
It's not nearly that hard. To put it into game terms he tried to use the grenade launcher without any practice.
