MY ANALYSIS:
It is clear now, the police or Secret Service sniper may have had the shooter in target BEFORE he began shooting.
What exactly is the officer monitoring, through his scope, before the initial shots ring out?
I've been to several Trump rallies and have NEVER seen a sniper even engaged with his firearm. Definitely haven't seen one scoping something out.
Reports even indicate the Snipers had high ground and the most likely event would logically come from the building adjacent to the rally.
Upon the first several shots from the shooter, you see in this video that the sniper actually quickly sits up, and then even RETRACTED from his gun, in shock or fear perhaps, and may have quickly lost, then regained, his focus on the shooter.
People are saying the initial "shock" we see is the moment a return shot was fired from the sniper... I don't believe so.
At best, the Sniper was "aware" of something and immediately identified the threat, but I'm not so sure.
You also see the Sniper to the right drop for cover, rather than do his job and engage. Startling, to say the least.
Initially, it appears 3 shots rang out on Trump. It looks like the first shot is what grazed his ear. Then, a second round of shots is heard. A single return fire is then heard, which likely neutralized the shooter.
What took so long for the shooter to be neutralized? Was the Sniper waiting on orders to engage or did he truly not see the shooter? Surely, this can't be the case.
After hearing reports that MULTIPLE individuals warned law enforcement, something seems suspicious...
Again, it's highly plausible the threat was being monitored seconds before the shooting and was NOT taken out retroactively.
Scary.
And for those saying this is staged. Be careful. An innocent man was brutally murdered in the crowd tonight and others injured.
Was this just a MASSIVE failure from law enforcement and Secret Service, or something much more sinister??
🚨 TEXT FROM A PROFESSIONAL SNIPER:
This guy is a pro. +20 years of Military Service. Trained with Secret Service. Currently active-duty. Listen to this:
“I have no fucking clue what they are doing. I'm still trying to wrap my head around a building being 150 yards away that was outside the security perimeter and had rooftop access. I've trained with and completed against the SS snipers and they are the fastest and most accurate shooters I've ever seen. The fact they let this happen makes less than ZERO SENSE!”
How many of you have been to a Trump rally?
I've been to a few... Wanna know something I noticed?
The best security I've ever seen. Cameras scanning. SS posted everywhere, scanning and using hand signals.
Would secret Service ignore a child on the roof with a gun about 150 yards away?
Is everyone thinking critically? Or emotionally....
