Failed Trump Assassination Attempt
- Thread starter Tristan
- Start date
Looking at the two photographs of the supposed counter sniper rifle inside with the open window - do you see what is wrong here ?
Who provided that photo - and why would they supply it ?
Something very important is missing on that weapon; something that allows for complete powder burn of the cartridge, something that has an internal twist of lands & grooves, the length of which determines not just the weapon's accuracy but the precision of that accuracy.
Imo that photo of the rifle was staged.

So yeah, it was the news anchor that gave a wrong impression. The snipers weren't stationed on the ground level - they were monitoring the ground level. This is the quote that got cut off in the twitter vids:
In other words, they could have seen Crooks if they had stuck their heads out the window - but they were told to watch the crowd, not the rooftops.

Not the rifle that is circulating. See below
Going to try to clear this up as when someone says "collapsible stock" I have come to realize non-gun folks don't really know what that means (which politicians hope you never really do). A stock that collapses is pretty standard on modular platforms that accomodates shooters with different arm lengths. On AR platforms most collapsible stocks have 6 to 7 different slots that the buttstock locks into, giving a few inches of travel as seen below (I put two tape measures in inches to illustrate, can't find my metric tape measure, sorry!)
A "folding stock" is very different from a "collapsible stock", which can be put into a backpack or shoulder bag. The folding stock completely folds the rifle to reduce the size for portability. This is less common for .223/5.56 barrels, more common for 9mm as I show below.
You can see the difference between a "collapsible stock" versus a "folding stock" below. And on a side note, both of these have red dots. Both are short distance (sub-100yds) setups.

Folding Stock - carrying case - folded and open
Martenson's latest on the 9th shot. Looks like it was a local ESU guy from behind the left stands. Didn't hit Crooks, but stopped the shooting long enough for the south SS sniper team to take him out.

I'm not really sure what to make of this one. This is the James Copenhaver film of someone running across the roof. It seems like they are suggesting that Crooks was dead before any shots were fired (because Trump is still talking), and yet we have another video of Crooks on the roof (from a different angle) when shots were fired and there was no gun recoil into his shoulder (suggesting he didn't shoot the first 3 shots). This is just getting weirder and weirder... unless the footage has been changed or tampered with somehow.

So, he was taken out by the 10th shot?
Oops, I missed reading one of the comments with the X link where MR. G&G provides the photo.
I'll explain myself - the rifle is missing the barrel in that photo.
@Brewer - Agreed, the round that took out Crooks was not a 300 WM, if I had to put money on it I'd say a 6.5 cm., a 5.56 doesn't make sense with the likelihood of tumbling if the shooter is retarded, obstructions, target wearing armour. 5.56 ... hmmm, nope. 6.5 cm yup, 270 win yup, anything bigger, even suppressed and the harmonic difference would be telltale.
@Benjamin - The sniper rifle of choice for the IRA was the .50 Barrett. If the goons wanted to take out the Don they would have used a .50 bmg from 2 km away, say from a the top of a Water tower and they would not have missed.
The whole story stinks - " inside job" yeah maybe. Or inside job with a head fake (hahaha) with the specific purpose of getting the American people behind the Don so the goons can manipulate him into bringing warp speed 2.0 or whatever.
Has anyone ever thought that what we are being shown, or most of it, is on purpose - likely even John Doe's iPhone footage that he "sold" to some media firm - does anyone have an idea to what extent the psychological warfare units of the DoD have been in on this ?
At the end of the day all of our speculation amounts to a hill of beans. We will never see Crooks' rifle, his optic, his mags, spent casings, remaining cartridges, the projectiles recovered from the tractor hose, or anywhere else.
cheers, life

This is significant I too believe, and my earliest questions at the beginning of this thread regarding who bought Crooks the Demo Ranch t-shirt and did his parents use DBT (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy) on their son?
It hasn't circulated yet, but apparently there is another photo making the rounds that shows the entry would very clearly above his left eye. It might be visible in this photo, but just barely. I think that dark bit above his left lip is just blood congealed in his facial hair. Here's the pic with what could be the entry wound circled, and a line showing the path to the exit wound:
The guys at Paramount Tactical claim to have seen the other picture (also this timestamp), and describe it depicting that portion of his skull as basically caved in (presumably the part that is touching the roof in the above photo). If it's circulating privately, it'll become public eventually. (BTW, they interview the guy who took the 3/5 video in the same livestream.)
Cullen is one of the worst. He's been wrong about pretty much everything.I'm not really sure what to make of this one. This is the James Copenhaver film of someone running across the roof. It seems like they are suggesting that Crooks was dead before any shots were fired (because Trump is still talking), and yet we have another video of Crooks on the roof (from a different angle) when shots were fired and there was no gun recoil into his shoulder (suggesting he didn't shoot the first 3 shots).

In your opinion what has he been wrong about so far?

Even if that's true, and I still have absolutely no idea what is true at this point, what caliber weapons were the SS team shooting? Did they have 300 wimags, or something smaller? Because if that's a 300 winmag entry wound below his left eye, there should be almost nothing left of the back of his head - but we don't have a direct picture of that part of his head, do we?
And what is that white spot in Crook's mouth on the top part of his mouth in that picture above? Is that a displaced tooth? Looking back at Joe's photos of his mouth it seems to me that Crooks might actually be missing some teeth around what Joe posited as the "exit" wound. (I have also read that the sniper weapon used was an M4 rifle, which uses a NATO round that an AR-15 could shoot.)
I can almost feel a 4D timelock in place as I'm writing this...what is true any more?!
