Donald Trump rally shooting being probed as assassination attempt: AP sources
Donald Trump appeared to be the target of an assassination attempt as he spoke during a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday, law enforcement officials said. The former president, his ear covered in blood, was quickly pulled away by Secret Service agents and his campaign said he was "fine."

This is pretty bad. There are reports that a bystander was killed. It's gross to call the shooter a hero.
He wasted his life and didn't even succeed in his goal, or did he? I know sounds nuts but by the looks this attempt on Trump life has helped him. Look at that goddamm photo op. Bullshit.
Why would they be a hero? They helped trump.
Nobody in their right mind wants this. It only helps Trump.
Who called them a hero?
Yeah, they missed...
I have seen zero people saying that
E: Never mind I see it.
There are some good people out there.
I'm not calling the shooter a hero. And I'm not going to advocate for violence because I don't want to normalize that. But I'm also not going to call it gross. The ONLY reason I think it's bad is because of the fallout.
Trump has openly advocated for this for the last 8 years, but for his adversaries. He still treats Ashli Babbitt as a martyr. He wanted to shoot peaceful protesters. Etc, etc, etc. I think anyone with an ounce of sympathy with that sack of crap is gross.
I don't find it gross that murderers and rapists are given the death penalty. But I don't advocate for government to have that power either.
A Trump supporter was killed?
It’s not gross.
I'd be pleased if Trump never existed. It's still gross to call the shooter a hero.
I'm not advocating for it. But Trump has, repeatedly. Again and again. I have no fucks to give and I do not find it gross. He advocated for Hillary to be assassinated, wanted to shoot protesters, and still considers Ashli Babbitt a hero.
I don't find it gross when people want pedophiles to get the death penalty, even if I disagree with the government having that sort of power. I'm not going to condemn people who are happy with the shooter, even though I don't support the actions.
We don't know why the shooter tried to shoot Trump. We also know that this will role up his base. And the shooter failed at what he was trying to do.
That doesn't sound like a hero.
Dude was probably messed up in the head. If we call this attempted assassin a hero, that might inspire copycat crimes of people trying to shoot public figures they disagree with. I know there's that second amendment and all, but is that really how you want the country to function?
I already said I don't support the action. And that's exactly why. But I'm not going to dismiss people's feelings on the matter.
In the same way I don't support the death penalty. But I'm not going to deny that people feel catharsis when a pedophile or a murderer is executed.
Then you are no different fron Jan 6 nuts
