I can't believe ppl were shouting & pointing at this man almost 2 minutes before the shooting & Crow still got off 8 shots. The local police saw him, took a pic, & retreated. Why didn't they have a radio channel for emergencies? The lady in charge of Special Services said she isn't stepping down. A mess!

Secret Service director hired people based on the color of their skin, their sexual preferences and women with with hardly any qualifications rather than ppl with actual qualifications🤡🌍

Is this MSN trying to justify complete incompetence?

[@stephendiamond9893]

There are several conflicting reports on social media One report says that the father loaned the rifle to his son for target practicing. Another report says that he called the police after hearing about the shooting claiming that his rifle was missing.

That shot was 150-180 yards. That’s not squat. They could have taken him out with a red dot if they had to. Would have not been a well placed shot. But that distance isn’t anything. For someone that’s trained. He had a scope. An the rifle was on a tripod. He had the ability to be very steady an accurate. A with the rifle the SService had. Could have easily if his head didn’t explode or move. Could have damn near put a bullet through each of the guys eyeballs. This guy is just making excuses for the people that don’t understand how easy of a shot that was. A child could have hit that with very little coaching. An anyone would know to have the high ground/elevated areas covered. Normal soldiers are trained out to atleast 300meters/yards without any optic of any like. An that’s any run of the mill idiot off the street that joined the service. So someone in the SS can’t make a 180ish yard shot with probably a nice nice scope. Tons of shooting an training and on a tripod. Complete bull mess. At that distance that shot could be made with the rifle the SS had a caliber being shot. Without making any adjustments of any windage an elevation at all on the scope.

[@ColbyAzimuth]

Which teams of agents had a clear view, and which ones actually responded?

[@lostviking540]

Yards Yards not feet. Get it right

[@ColbyAzimuth]

I've posted polite reasonable questions about the arrangement and actions of the various response teams, but MORE THAN HALF the comments I post get deleted/censored by the youtube AI algorithm, for no discernible reason, about a minute after posting. *_WHAT'S GOING ON WITH KZbin CENSORSHIP this month??_* 😒 Any idea how I can comment on videos without being deleted again and again and again and again?

Definitely unprofessional to wear your undies out in public. Looks like a cami or shapewear made to be worn under a blouse or jacket.

Yards, not feet. Check your numbers.

[@m_recon5092]

I wonder why the sniper was told to not shot the shooter as soon as he saw him.

[@thelastdefenderofcamelot5623]

Maybe because it was his friend so it was a difficult one.

[@yaboybdot7434]

Why say ear as if it wasn't a big deal

Angelina, you have to rethink that type of wardrobe.
