Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
It's like I told a chud yesterday, the problem with being conspiratorial is that all of those stories you keep telling yourself fall flat. What obviously happened is that the Secret Service was incompetent as shit because this detail was picked by the Donald or someone close to him. It's not like the Secret Service has a clean history with their agents to begin with. In a way it's DEI for white people as he chose his own people for the "loyalty" rather than anything else.
There was a guy on the radio the other day who had been part of Bush's protective detail and talked about how the SS usually did 'close protection' meaning the guys around Trump and the stage and extended threat like the snipers we saw who would be aiming much further out. He said that the close-to-middle-distance that the shooter was in was usually designated to local police to secure.
If that's the case, then it's even more unsurprising that the cops half-arsed it and reacted way too late.
Are you?
