and what does the drone change? reason why this happened, is because secret service was scratching his balls while making mE mE sounds, they simply thought he was part of their own team. multiple people noticed the shooter way before he shot, but everyone thought he is part of the security. explain to me again, how would a drone change this?

@@SethiozProject They thought he was part of their team?! It's not some COD matchmaking with surprise random team members, each doing whatever they want. "OK everyone secure your positions. Even though you don't know who you are working with and where they are, subdue all potential threats!" - The Secret Service agent in your reality? Comparing civilians in a loud environment and a drone operated by a trained security professional is crazy. If a civilian waves, points, and yells in an audience full of people waving around and yelling then there's a good chance whoever they are yelling to can't hear them and/or understand them and possibly not even recognize their intent. On the other hand, if a secret service agent operating a drone spots anyone climbing up to a rooftop or walking around with a rifle right outside their perimeter, they directly inform the team through their ear pieces. The civilians could mistake someone on a roof with a rifle as a SS agent, but SS snipers and surveillance would definitely not. Though whatever measures they add to their security, nothing would work well if they are incompetent or colluding.

These people are idiots. Especially towards the end. I have worked presidential security details. There is NO EXCUSE to not have a rooftop secured that is merely 150yards away. NO EXCUSE. If the Secret Service doesn't have the manpower, they would have searched the building then asked local law enforcement to restrict all access. We don't know if that happened or not. But to say they can't secure a site like this and say its because of "longer range" weapons is totally BS. 150 yards is nothing for even a small rifle.

Everyone needs to understand... PA is a CLOSED primary state. That means you can only vote in a party primary if you are a member of that party. Many people in PA register with parties they don't really support, so they can vote in the primaries. His party registration does not necessarily mean anything.

Maybe Trump has some blame for those references by praising Hitler's generals, praising "good things" that Hitler did, using Nazis-style phrasings about "vermin" and "poisoned blood", and quoting Mussolini.

My girl graduated this year and went and got her state ID. The state registered her as a Republican at that time and then told her she can change her party affiliation onine when she gets her ID. She did not get the ID to vote. she needs the ID for college registration and the ability to get on a plane. I find it odd and funny that the state registered her to Vote and then added a party affiliation when all she wanted was an ID to register for college and travel.

@@shawnm8232 the point, That it is randomly assigned when she registered. The next could be democrat etc. if you do not know or tell them they pick R or D for them so it shows no favoritism for either party. Did the person just look at him and go it is a white kid, he is a R? I would look more at who he gave money too than what a state puts on your ID. The other thing is that is was not a choice to register to vote. it was done automatically. We will now have a 3rd ballot mail in ballet coming to our house. she has no interest in politics and will not vote, what should be done with this 3rd ballot????
