US Erection 12 *AND* 16 *AND* 20 *AND* 22 *AND* 24 *AND* Beyond

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

"Religious institutions that use government power in support of themselves and force their views on persons of other faiths, or of no faith, undermine our civil rights." - THOMAS JEFFERSON

"We establish no religion in this country. We command no worship. We mandate no belief, nor will we ever. Church and state are and must remain separate." - Ronald Reagan

“We believe in separation of church and state, that there should be no unwarranted influence on the church or religion by the state, and vice versa.” - Jimmy Carter

“I believe in an America that is officially neither Catholic, Protestant, or Jewish - where religious liberty is so indivisible that an act against one church is treated as an act against all.” - JFK

And no for….

“The great silent majority is rising like never before and under our leadership,” he recites from a teleprompter in a typical version of the script. “We will pray to God for our strength and for our liberty. We will pray for God and we will pray with God. We are one movement, one people, one family and one glorious nation under God.” - Donald Trump the Chosen One.

We're trained 2 rounds center mass then a headshot to finish the job only. Going coconut is not a pro
Definitely an inexperienced shooter. A Swedish article suggested even a mediocre Swedish hunter would hit within an inch of the bull’s eye at that distance. And this guy was lying down, had the gun mounted on a stand and used a telescopic sight.
From the sounds of it he had also fired three shots before Donald ducked.

This incompetence is as glaring as that of the Secret Service that had not secured the roof he was lying on before the event.

Now before y’all come reigning down on the Chef for his comments about Trump’s ear being pierced by shattered glass from a shot up teleprompter remember what Trump had to say about the bludgeoning of Pelosi’s husband by a crazed hammer weilding nut job…see the link

We have no idea what or who was securing the roof of that building other than there was a security breakdown regarding it. The building was outside the secure access perimeter for attendees to the rally. From what I've been reading, these outer ares are often delegated to State or local law enforcement for patrol and it was obviously within the perimeter managed by the counter snipers. The counter sniper crew could have an area 180 degrees wide out to 1500m to monitor so they would be reliant on uniform and plain cloths crews on the ground in addition to their own scans.

This would have been documented in the pre event security scan and planning documents. I'm sure they have already identified the lapse and will be the communication traffic for confirmation.

My impression from the limited video and the timing of the audible shots, the counter snipers were reacting to communications, not shots fired.

Favourite conspiracy theory meme of the day on that suggest there was no need for both the CIA and Secret Service to be on that roof. What is more likely, a grand conspiracy or human error. Would a grand conspiracy place the final outcome in the hands of a math nerd loner geek with little to no experience shooting from distance or where to aim?
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

Don’t know about the other ones, but in Sweden you need to pass a hunter’s exam before you’re allowed a gun. Kind of like a driver’s license, which means they have to learn some basic gun safety stuff and pass a target shooting test.
Weeds out some of the real idiots. But either way, it means if you have a hunting license you have passed a target shooting test.
I have no idea if this applies to those other countries, and besides, I was just quoting the article.
Here: https://www.dn.se/varlden/fore-detta-li ... -pa-trump/

Apparently it has been confirmed that Crooks was known to be a poor shot.

Crossed my mind yeah, but I’m not really into conspiracy theories.
And if you do go down that rabbithole, then you must also consider if the shot missed on purpose…

On the other hand, I read just the other day that Trump still hasn’t reimbursed some town in Pennsylvania for the security costs at a rally he held four years ago. Maybe they withheld the security for any new meetings until he pays up for the previous one? Would make sense. I mean if you provide a service for someone who then doesn’t pay, and then he wants the same service again - wouldn’t you demand he pays the old bill first? :eh:

A lot of lefties register as Republicans so they can vote against specific Republicans (Trump) in the primaries.

Thomas Matthew Crooks made a donation to ActBlue, which raises money for Democratic politicians.

Reports say the donation was designated for the Progressive Turnout Project, an organization which rallies Dems to vote.

Good Lord, the guy tried to kill the Republican nominee for fucksake...

Hmmmm...

"How's Nancy's husband doing?"

"The wall around Nancy's house didn't work, obviously."

Yeah, pretty sure your comments about wishing Trump's would-be assassin had succeeded are a tad worse there numbnuts.

And you're a tad late with your 'don't come reigning (sic) down on the Chef' request.

For fucksake Dude, get a filter you murder-loving maniac...

Was Trump murdered? No, he got an ear piercing, from shattered glass, FFS.
