People aren't seeing this for the real precursor it is. People are getting emboldened now. There will be more events like this.

Unfortunately, I have to agree with you. Also the SS did not do their job. Before the attempt on Trump, people in the crowd were pointing out that guy in camouflage on the roof of that building, yet the secret service/law enforcement did not respond. And the counter sniper waited until the perp took numerous shots to respond.

Was just talking to my Dad about this, he was saying from what he heard (he watches more news than I do) the local law enforcement basically said, "Well, he was outside the perimeter, so there wasn't really anything we could do," as their explanation for how it happened.

It's going to be interesting to see this whole investigation play out and what comes up for motives and such.
