Thomas Matthew Crooks did not do enough aim training.
From Wikipedia:
Crooks fired from a roof outside the rally venue using an AR-15–style semi-automatic rifle, firing eight rounds before being killed by a sniper from the Secret Service Counter Assault Team.
Dude had 8 fucking attempts. Thats almost too unbelievable.
Ok look without getting into the ethics of political violence that's embarrassing.
I am a baby with rifles, having only shot like 200 rounds? but I thought it was a low calibre rifle from the sound in the video and thought "wow decent accuracy from a 22 at 100 meters!". Like I struggle to land on the target at 50 with open sights.
But an assault rifle? really?
Anyway this post was about "he is dead" being an absurd thing to say in "what we know" don't shoot into crowds kids. That's not very nice.
I mean the guy was probably stressed the fuck out. I assume he had some sort of scope but who knows what psychological state he was in.
Yeah I imagine whatever your reasons it's probably a pretty stressful to carry out a suicide attack.
It has to be hard to hit an ear from that distance, in fact, I would say near impossible.
Right, like he was never meant to kill trump.
Ok, the conspiracy shit is already old. 0% chance it was rigged.
You mean the party known for lying and falsification didn't have an assassin plant meant to take the fall for the planned assassination attempt against the fascist presidential candidate in order to further bolster the support from his allies and voters?
There's no way this wasn't staged. And quite frankly, if the repubs are allowed to make up stuff, so is everyone else.

Log off. Please log off, you are doing significant brain damage to yourself.
it's a 20 year old dude, almost a kid, who has a documented historical record of being SHIT at aiming.
why the fuck would they get THAT person to botch an assassination? What if he tried to miss and accidentally hit instead?
Just like the 2020 election
I wouldn’t say 0% chance, but I agree that it is unhealthy to jump straight to conspiratorial thinking. Especially given just how little we know at this point.
Jet fuel can't shoot steel BBs!
you need to lay off the petrol sniffing mate.
also a registered republican!
But he donated to a pro Biden PAC!
