One can only hope that what happened has gone unnoticed by Xi, Zelensky, Kim Jong Un, Maduro, al-Qaeda and ISIS et al and that they have not concluded that in America even a purported lone wolf zit faced psycho adolescent can turn up at rallies of aspirants for POTUS including former presidents and pass through security with a range finder and AR 15 and then take up position at the best site with a clear view of the target and let off a few rounds and hit the target without anybody stopping them. Hopefully this demonstration of American competence does not inspire copy cat attacks.

Interesting to read the commentary on proposed solutions in Newsweek:

"if the secret service can't or won't secure trump's rallies, then they should issue formal notice to the GOP that trump's rallies will no longer be federally protected so that the Republican party can make other security arrangements in order to protect the audiences in attendance."

"How about the Republican Party declaring that Trump rally goers can all bring their firearms including AR-15's to Trump rallies? It would be a great pro-2nd Amendment statement, and security should be better than ever because if there's anything better than just one good guy with a gun it's thousands of good guys and gals with guns!"

Please allow me to pay my respects to FF CORY COMPERATORE, as a retired Professional Fire Fighter, once a volunteer myself. The inclination to protect others is instinctive, and Cory is to be admired for his innate courage under fire. I would be remiss to fail to mention the others who were injured while boldly exercising their RIGHT to be at a political event, and went there knowing the abuse and danger that followers of Donald Trump face daily, and, using their courage to make their statement, attended, as they should. The intimidation of voters has never been this bad, and the Democrats act with impunity and disrespect, in spite of the clear end of their party and their way of doing business. Judgement day is on the horizon.
