Some of this shit reads like bad action movie plots.

Death ray plot

In June 2013, two men from upstate New York were arrested after building a "death ray" x-ray device and plotting to use it against Muslims and other perceived enemies of the US and Israel,[46] including Obama. The men, Glenn Scott Crawford and Eric J. Feight, were arrested by the FBI after a 15-month operation involving FBI agents posing as co-conspirators. A court affidavit described the device as "a mobile, remotely operated, radiation-emitting device capable of killing human targets silently and from a distance with lethal doses of radiation."[47]

Crawford, affiliated with the Ku Klux Klan, allegedly had contacted an Albany synagogue and a Jewish organization and asked for their assistance with technology that could be used against Israel's enemies. Crawford also plotted to kill President Obama with the device. The undercover agents rendered the weapon inoperable to eliminate potential danger to the public. Crawford and Feight were charged with "conspiracy to provide material support to terrorists".[48][49][50][51][52] In 2015 Crawford was convicted and on December 19, 2016, he was sentenced to 30 years in federal prison. Feight pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 8 years and one month in prison.[53][54]

Not horrifying. No attempt was made.

What I want to know,

They said that security wasn't full blown at the golf course because Trump decided last minute to go golfing. It wasn't on his schedule.

They determined via dudes cell he was camped out in the bush for 12hours.

So if it was a last minute decision for Trump to go golfing there, how the hell did dude know to setup there 12hrs in advance?

Trump golfs very frequently. The guy had brought food with him. Seems pretty clear that he didn't know when Trump would go golfing, just that it was a given that he would before too long and he could just wait.

Sounds really smart for a trump supporter..

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 13 points 5 days ago

Yes. It was unsuccessful.

I'd call it lazy. He just sat on a piece of his pathing route and waited. He was a spawn camper.
