With my modern day AR15 rifle (16" barrel) coupled with a zeroed red dot and a 3 x magnifier, I get consistent 8" groups at 100 yards. If I just use the red dot it gets harder. So, yeah, the optics are critical at the distance here, 146 yards. If Crooks had a proper scope of say 1-6, had it zeroed, and had trained with it, at 146 yards it would not have been difficult to land a shot through Trump's head. Maybe a good thing he didn't have a decent scope.
I totally agree with that statement, Sir. He had the affordable DPMS DR-15 M4 5.56 Nato that his dad purchased 11 years ago, which is a semi-automatic rifle and not a sniper rifle by any means, and with a EOTECH non-magnifying optic. Now, try to see what you see through such non-magnifying optic, and at 150yd !
@@campsitez2355 Yes of course. He went under-equipped, experienced but not enough, which made him go for the head instead of the upper torso which would have been terminal for any person who's nearly 80 y.o. Some say he got chosen to do that, well, if it's the case, the ones who supposedly chose him definitely picked the wrong one, 'cause now trump's going to win, and he's rightfully angry after what happened, and he's now aware of what his enemies are capable of, so he's not going to make any security errors ever again. He's bulletproof now. I'm not a fan of trump, nor a fan of any of his democrat opponents, but that's what's going to happen.
@@TheWorstManOnEarth honestly I think it was Vaush who said years ago that "if anyone were to kill the president (in a video game - they say on twitch to escape a ban) that they should do it with an AR-15 without any optical advantage so that all AR-15s can be banned" ... and undoubtedly Thomas Matthew Crooks dropped by probably both destiny's chat and vaush chat saying he would do it. just sayin' those ppl encouraged the act and they will be held accountable by the government eventually.
The murderer was onsite and reconned the area hours before the rally....dude you don't know what you are talking about. The cop wasn't actually on the roof, he had been boosted up on the ledge by another cop and had only pulled himself up enough to see the shooter and then when the shooter pointed his gun at the cop, the cop let go and dropped/fell to the ground. He was actually injured from that interaction
Good video mate. Listen to all the audio of the shooting and any same person without a hearing impairment can hear that the first three shots sound completely different to the next five shots. You do not need to be a forensic analyst to hear that. I'm not coming up with theories as to why they sound completely different, I merely stating the obvious.
I heard that. The sound analysis shows that they were all fired from the same distance. I’d love to know if he repositioned after those first three shots, putting the muzzle closer or farther on the roof, affecting the report of the rifle?
I got into a minor argument with someone about this. Given it was a real life situation, which is lost on most people, was rushed into shooting before planned, he came damn close on the first shot. Damn close. He may not be good. But calling him bad doesn’t tell the whole story either. Also don’t feel bad. My father went to basic in fort Polk middle of August, his drill sergeants loved him, which he said did nothing for him but have to build a deck and paint the dudes house for free lol. So it’s bad on either side of the coin.
I heard that intro and instantly hit the subscription button. 😂 I was saying the same thing to someone talking down on this kid. Everyone saying how scrawny he is and how he can't shoot. These people have never heard of Army scouts. And he didn't miss. He basically got unlucky. Trump was saved by immigration like he himself said last night.
You are absolutely correct! I was not sure where you were going at the start of the video, but that is exactly what I would have said. The fact he got a shot that close to killing Trump is pretty chilling, if you consider how anxious this person should have been.
@@JackWoodd no it's not because he tried, why do you think he had such a high turnover rate? He was firing people because they were telling him he couldn't do that. You need to wake up and smell the fucking coffee, stop watching propaganda stations like Fox and ONE! They are LYING to you!
He wasn't an expert shooter by any means but he wasn't God awful either. There's actually a fair few people in the army infantry who are not great shots and he would have been good enough to pass at range week.. If that shot had been made on the range it would have been within the target space. He also zeroed his weapon before taking the shot without being able to take any shots beforehand which is quite impressive on its own and shows he had some marksmanship knowledge. Not condoning the attempted assassination of course. He was a very troubled man.
@@JackWoodd I cant see how a rational person would even attempt it without being groomed and reassured. And there is no evidence he was psychotic, schizophrenic etc.
When Paul mentions the armor of God, I always think of reading the Scripture for protection against a world dominated by Satan. For some reason, Orange Donald doesn't strike me as a dude who reads much of the bible. Don't get me wrong. I'm MAGA all the way. Yet he isn't exactly a holy man.

Thanks for your thanks. I appreciate it.
He was also using low-grade rifle with 3 MOA in a cheap red dot sight he probably had a 4-inch cone of deviation five with the Wind
So we agree. It was a quality first shot. The kid had skill.

He really had the ability to control his fear.
It's in Alabama, I'm about 30 miles from McClellan. It's still there decommissioned
Thanks for the clarification. I still have nightmares about that place.
Why do you want Trump to be America's first dictator?
Evidence that Trump is a dictator? Anything? Because the past 8 years have been nada.
Other than that, get better bait my man.
Orange Donald is by far the best president of my lifetime. And that includes Reagan.

One minor detail is, assault rifles, by definition have a selector switch. An AR-15 is not far off from an assault rifle though.
An assault rifle is a made up term by people scared of guns

The other two gunmen prior to the sniper taking out the patsy were prolly better
