Zone1 Crooks was dead within seconds of his pulling the trigger

[Fort Fun Indiana]

A little late.

Still good at it. That's all I meant.

 

[Weatherman2020]

So the secret service snipers are pretty damn good at what they do. My question to those of you who may be familiar with this line of work is this... To take him out so quickly with the snipers have had to know where he was already? Or.... Is it possible they were able to find him because he was shooting and take him out that quickly?

Jo

It’s probably been answered but both the SS snipers were watching the assassin before the shooting. They let him get 8 rounds off before returning fire.

So the million dollar question is why did the wait.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

They didn't get eyes on him until after he crested the roof. Those snipers could not see the back slope of the roof.

He was over the crest long enough to aim and fire 8 rounds.

And why didn’t they radio about the assassin so Trump could be escorted out?

Now we learn police were trying to get him 10 minutes before the shooting and called out a tactical alert.

That was ignored.

 

[The Sage of Main Street]

From my reading , the SS had Crooks in their sights as soon as the local PD altered them

If you watch the video's , the SS only reacted after Crooks opened fire, not before hand

So i'm siding with they could not scramble up the same avenue a 20 yr old could ,and where waiting for the order to take him out

He was over the crest long enough to aim and fire 8 rounds.

Right. Which was about 12 seconds.

 

[Crepitus]

Right, he was hired by the White House to assassinate Trump and take out any other republicans. Seems like once they saw him with a gun on that building they should have arrested him even for trespassing. Seems to have been a lot of others involved as the killer got off way too many shots.

He was hired by the tRump campaign to miss him.

Just stop.

Let’s run with that. We’ll ignore the 10 minutes police say.

One thousand one
One thousand two
One thousand 3
One thousand 4
One thousand 5
One thousand 6
One thousand 7
One thousand 8
One thousand 9
One thousand 10
One thousand 11
One thousand 12

And still the SS around him were not notified.

You forgot we were talking about the time frame where the SS could see him on top of the roof from their vantage point.

Please try to focus. It gets old cleaning up your constant mistakes.

26 minutes before the shooting witnesses saw the shooter on the roof.
10 minutes before the police sent out a tactical alert.
The SS snipers watched him on the roof and either warned no one or the tactical command center did as the SS agents near Trump were left in the dark.

Nah. The snipers could not see him on the roof for very long at all.

They don't just shoot anything that moves.

Long enough for the assassin to aim and get 8 shots off.

Minimum.


And why did they put two snipers side by side?

Combat 101: flank your target. Those snipers should have been 90-120 degrees apart. That gives you good visibility if one view is blocked from an area. And if shooting starts you’ve now got a kill zone and your target can’t hide behind someone or something.

Long enough for the assassin to aim and get 8 shots off.

To aim poorly.

Exactly.

Not long.

About 12 seconds.

Yes.

Or.... Is it possible they were able to find him because he was shooting and take him out that quickly?

No.

About 12 seconds.

So a 20 year old kid can get 8 good shots off before trained snipers?

Thats as stupid as the roof slope excuse lie.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

8 poor shots.

At an obese human sized target from 160 yards

Yes, he can. Ask any LEO. The bad guy almost always gets off the first shot.

LEO’s said they called a tactical alert 10 minutes before the shooting started.

A tactical alert!

Wow! Link to that.
