The Voter Registration means nothing on it's own for the reason below that I just ripped from r/pittsburgh.
"In PA we don't have open primaries (like other states do). So you have to be a registered member of a party to vote in that primary.
A lot of people register as the party they oppose in order to vote in their primaries. In heavy one-sided party areas, the primary IS the election since candidates often run unopposed or it's a landslide.
So for example, if you're someone on the right living in a deep blue area, and you wanted to vote against (for example) Summer Lee, then you wouldn't do that in the general election. It would be futile. You would do it as a registered Democrat in the primary where your vote would be much more meaningful. And vice versa.
So simply being registered republican isn't evidence of much. Not saying this is the case, but people in other states don't realize this about our primaries and acting like this is definitive."
or maybe he's just a Republican.
Read up a response and get back to me. As cool as he thought his lean into the camera was with the tug on his glasses, the photo of his dead as a door knob, mouth agape, sprawled out like the rat he (and you other lefties) was is how he'll be remembered forever.
The shooter lived about 1.5 miles from me. I went over to his neighborhood where he presumably lived with his parents and there is significant police activity. So much that I decided to go right back home so I didn’t get a DUI.
Yah was my initial thought but why would you stage this when you're a 2:1 favorite to win and someone died in the audience.... Seems pretty real to me. Only thing possibly 'staged' was SS negligence.

Well remember Trump is a draft dodger and he has always been insecure about his manhood. Now he can brag that he survived an assassin’s bullet, fake as the whole thing was. Trump doesn’t care about the one guy dying.

Do people use the middle name of political gunmen so they're not confused with regular non gunmen? If not, let's get Pre- Crime to round up all the people who use triple-barrelled names.

Many helicopters flying in the direction of the shooters home in Bethel Park. Probably 3 or 4. They flew right over my neighborhood which if you’ve known of me for years on running forums is Baldwin. Which is right next to Bethel Park.
B) Your presumption that either the secret service or local law enforcement actually protect people well should be reconsidered. Hell for the later that is actually technically not something you can even expect from them
C) What about any of this screams brilliance
Oh and also the efficacy of survelliance and intelligence services is actually quite impressively terrible and in practice it basically amounts to profiling based on steroetypes
Its actually quite amazing. We haven't had a major terrorist attack on US soil since 9/11. And that's due to the impressive accuracy of the intelligence industry's ability to profile and target dangerous actors with advanced pattern recognition and statistical models.
On another note, I think this incident makes Trump extremely dangerous. This validates his paranoia.

Is it somehow honorable to go overseas to murder people for profit?
Does this guy look like he possesses the intellect to infiltrate a Trump rally site, with an assault rifle, and gain access to the roof of a building that allegedly was cleared, secured, and monitored by the Secret Service and local law enforcement? Considering his arrest and protest history, how was he able to even get within a mile of this event?
Something doesn't add up here.
Looks like the Secret Police and local police messed up. Witnesses outside the event saw the guy climb up and crawl around the roof with a rifle for 2-3 minutes. The witness pointed him out to a dumb local policeman, who reacted something like "huh?" and didn't do anything about it. The M@GA-visor wearing witness rightfully asked why the Secret Service didn't stage any people on the very few rooftops within range, and asked why the local policeman was so clueless and not able to do anything about it and notify the Secret Police right away. Also, the Secret Police saw the guy on the roof. That's how they knew right away where the shooting was from. The witness asked why Trump wasn't taken off the stage or shielded before the shooting began as soon as they saw the guy on the roof.

May God help us all.
Uh, ever heard of the Boston Marathon? This is a running forum after all…
