    Shots Fired At President Trump's Butler PA Rally!

    Exactly what I was thinking. He took 1-2 intentional shots and then fired off a few in the general direction as shit got real.

    Shots Fired At President Trump's Butler PA Rally!

    Yeah? And did "they" force him to go back and forth to the rally? Force him to purchase a ladder at a hardware store to climb the roof? Force him to buy ammo before heading to the rally? Force him to gather recon info and fly a drone around? Force him to climb the roof? Force him to take a shot...

    Shots Fired At President Trump's Butler PA Rally!

    I saw the "one in a million" comment somewhere else and laughed. Not even "one in a hundred". Team 3 was what... 400 yards away? Obstructed target was maybe 4-6"? 1-1.5 MOA shouldn't be difficult at 400 yards, give or take. Sure... under stress and all that, but I'm still rolling my eyes at the...

    Yeah, most likely crypto. But... if there's a shit ton of money in those accounts, then I'd be suspicious. But the media's wording of it is odd. Like who has bank accounts that AREN'T encrypted lol.

    Their view of the shooter, at least for a clean shot, was purportedly obstructed by the line of trees.

    Good question. I'm not familiar with private security regs. on a state-by-state basis. I assume they must be licensed to operate in each state they visit with their client.

    If some sort of national carry reciprocity existed, don't you think every gun owner in the country would have it? There are a growing number of states that have enacted constitutional carry laws, but not all.

    Shots Fired At President Trump's Butler PA Rally!

    There are some rather *warped* sections of his face by his left orbital and behind/below his right ear that could be entry/exit wounds.

    Shots Fired At President Trump's Butler PA Rally!

    Interesting video. First... it's been mirrored/flipped. So we're actually looking at Trump's left ear. Not the one that was shot. Second, look at the comments lol. People are saying Trump wasn't even hit by a bullet, but by glass from the teleprompter being hit. Kinda interesting theory...

    I don't see anything in that video. I see what some might mistake for a "shadowy figure", but it's just the top of the tree swaying in the wind.

    Correct. But you can get a faster effective shutter speed to beat the sun using HSS and a speed light.

    Shots Fired At President Trump's Butler PA Rally!

    EXIF data should exist for the original photo that would detail all the camera settings. And depending on camera make/model and lens make/model, different shutter designs. That said, the "rolling shutter" effect doesn't typically apply to still images, only video. For example, when you see video...

    Shots Fired At President Trump's Butler PA Rally!

    Yep. Looks to me like entry around left orbital and exit below/behind right ear. However, that doesn't line up with how he was supposedly oriented and where the known sniper teams were. If he was prone, mounted behind his rifle, that would mean this particular shot (if that's what happened)...

    Shots Fired At President Trump's Butler PA Rally!

    1/8000 shutter speed isn't out of the ordinary. Just depends on other factors like ISO setting, aperture, and lighting conditions. The odds of capturing a projectile traveling 2800 - 3000 fps are slim, though. I believe that image is a still from a video though?

    Shots Fired At President Trump's Butler PA Rally!

    I'm clearly seeing Nightforce optics on the USSS CS rigs... Or are we talking about different snipers?

    Shots Fired At President Trump's Butler PA Rally!

    He might not have actually done that on purpose or with intent. Could have been via the parents, or he signed up for some service through a third-party that made a donation, or who knows. I got a letter in the mail once that thanked me for a donation made on my behalf without my knowledge...

    Shots Fired At President Trump's Butler PA Rally!

    New information: 1. Video captured shooter casing the building about an hour before Trump took stage. You can see him walking in background. 2. SS claims they requested a police cruiser be parked by that building as a deterrent and local LE denied request, stating they didn't have the...

    Yeah, apparently he went for the head. Or he did go for torso and missed high. Who knows for sure...
