Why do you spread such patently inaccurate info? What’s your motive? Propaganda?

A quick search would’ve revealed the errors in your post.

You appear to know next to nothing about weapons, your experience is truly limited. It cannot be counted on as being remotely relevant.

He was experienced, was a poor marksman as a high school freshman, joined a club with a rifle range where he surely practiced, and practiced the day before. To say he was a rank amateur is wrong, but you know better.

<<<<As a freshman, Crooks had tried out for his high school rifle team but was rejected for poor marksmanship, the AP previously reported. Through his family, he was a member of the Clairton Sportsmen’s Club, a shooting range about 11 miles (17 kilometers) east of Bethel Park.>>>

His preparation has been reported as intense.

“He focused almost exclusively on the rifle range throughout 2024,” Grassley’s office said in a statement, adding that the newly released logs were proof of Crooks’ “intense preparation” before unleashing his July 13 attack on Trump’s rally in Butler, Pa.

I think the kid could do it, and was lucky with the one shot that grazed the pig.

kid was from gun country. you and Jack were tourists on holiday :)

my neighbor has young boys.. ages 3 and 4, or 4 and 5.. something like that. was trying to get rid of my AR 15 and 6300 rounds of 223 ammo. he bought all the ammo but said he had enough AR in his collection. So I pointed to the two boys and said, well, think of the future. He goes LOL, they already have AR's. .22 gauge.

Well fuck me I couldn't have guessed that!!! The guy's family has 500 acres somewhere down the road from here.

Trust me. The kid could hit the blimp.

You need more target shooting.

If you had grown older in Maine as a child you could have made that shot.

IOW, utter absolute balderdash that an amateur took the shot

so, yes, him firing <<entire spy force>> might have been a precautionary move, given that he knows what happened to JFK and MLK

whilst <<hard to say>> but just-saying, and 'nuff-said


LOL!

The 52 spies should be taken out and shot as criminal conspiracists who defrauded the public of their rightful information thereby usurping the constitutional process. The direct result of their conspiracy was 42,000 tons of killed people in Ukraine and Russia, nearly 7 billion in MAD Armageddon and the financial and economic collapse of USA.

Firing them won't cause any problem. They're useless. Negative value like most if not all of the government.

Ideal government size over many centuries seems to be about 10%. Enough to keep the peace, define and protect private property and allocate public property such as spectrum, water, roads, fish.
