Failed Trump Assassination Attempt

From a construction, flight dynamics and accuracy perspective I find the idea of a drone that can do long range shots (let alone, three shots fired closely after each other!) even slightly accurately rather hard to implement. If there is such a thing the construction probably has to be pretty advanced. Seems very difficult to me.
 
New bodycam footage released. One of the cops complains to another that he told the Secret Service they needed to cover the building, and they told him they would. The other cop thought the locals DID have guys on the roof. Another of the cops calls his family, who were in the rally. There isn't one place that has collected all the full videos yet, but here's what I could find:

First, the guy who was boosted up and saw Crooks:

I'm sure there are many details to analyse in that first video. One obvious question is, who did this officer supposedly see on the roof? There's no audio apparently because the audio is turned on only when the officer 'engages' and taps the bodycam on his chest. One, maybe notable detail is that these bodycams are mounted on the chest of the officers. Maybe the guy recording had his bodycam situated approximately where the other officer he meets has his, see image:

So, this would mean that the bodycam doesn't show where the person wearing it looks at, at head level. It only shows the view straight forward at chest level. Looking at a screenshot from when the guy has climbed halfway up on the connecting roof, we see no-one (see image below). Assuming that this whole segment is not just pre-planned scripted theater (which it could be), maybe the officer did get just high enough to get a glimpse of Crooks, who at this moment (18:10:55) should've been at his final shooting position. Still, looking at the screenshot, there is a considerable distance between Crooks and this officer as he peeks above the roof line. So, what scared this officer so much and so suddenly? Was he so weak that seeing the sight of someone lying in a shooting position on the roof made he scared, drop down and start running out on the grass field?

Or, did he see someone by turning his head ath the moment of this screenshot? Did he turn his head to the left or right? I dunno, the whole footage is weird. :huh:

Okay, if this guy recording is legit, based on his talk it appears that he did, indeed, see Crooks. Some snippets from what he said:

in video 4:58 (time 18:14)
“…he’s laying down, next building over. Right after the gap. (S)he’s got glasses, long hair…You, Mike, I climbed the wall, and pulled my — (inaudible) right in front of him, he’s got a booth bag, he’s got a mag…(censodred/beep) AR, laying down”

in video 6:14 (time 18:15)
“He was on top of this building, the left one…”

in video 7:25 (time 18:16:25)
Radio: “We have a unit on the roof…”


What seems incredible is how amateurish the bunch of officers appear. They are gathering below the wrong building, wondering if and how to get up. Then, when the guy says that he was on the other building, the one to the left, they appear to have no hurry in getting there – then, as they get there, scratching their heads how to get up at the place where this officer recording fitst pulled himself up. It appears almost like they are stalling on purpose.

Why didn't this officer who saw Crooks, for instance, fire his hand gun and yell "Shooter on the roof!" or something? Not to mention notifying of this danger via radio? (ADDED: maybe he did, since we don't have audio for the first minute or so)

Either this whole bunch were total amateurs, or there was a deliberate effort to stall things.

Seems so.

It is good more video is surfacing that can help provide more context that was lacking.

One thing with this cops reaction; anyone's reaction in the face of tension, is that people don't always do what might look to be reasonable. Agree, it might be reasonable to shoot of a few rounds (I mean the ex president is right in front), with the result being high immediate alert where much could have been avoided or, the guy on the roof may have done something the cop feared he might do. I'm sure he wishes deep inside he did do something different.

There is also the possibility that radio com was tell him and others to do something different than they might have thought reasonable. Hard to say.

I'm still acknowledging that Crooks was a patsy (spun up or otherwise), as the case has all the hallmarks.

Yeah it seems like that officer turned on the audio himself only quite a while after he saw Crooks. If so, was this deliberate or did he just forget it?

Well, if that’s the officer where early reports said that Crooks pointed his rifle towards, when he saw him on the roof, his reaction seems consistent with that: He duck away immediately and jumped off or fell down (also reported early). It can also easily be explained why he didn’t point a gun at Crooks (if we assume he had a handgun or something before he reached for another gun in his car): He was afraid of being shot.

It was mentioned earlier that the cop that was boosted onto the roof cut his hand and that someone else had mentioned to the med officer that he might need stitches. That was a possible explanation for the blood found in the bathroom. I haven't seen any evidence in the above vids that his hand was cut.

We were also told that the cop who was hoisted on the roof injured his ankle on the fall down. That footage clearly shows his ankle was fine. So likely we were fed a few lies about that by the local police.
 
It's 26 seconds in, only shows up for 3 frames as he's getting off the roof at 26 seconds into the video. If you change playback speed to 0.25x you can spot it, as it's really hard to catch that moment. I took the pics of those 3 frames:
I think most of these are just bugs.

BTW, a couple more complete videos from the Butler Eagle:


 
So, has it been asked or will it be asked to the C's if this attack was an attempt by the Consortium, and if so, why? Would Trump's presidence usher in a better timeline for humanity as opposed to Biden's or Harris's presidency? I think Trump is less controlable and that Biden has dementia, so easier to control, and that Harris is also easier to control. Is that the only factor, though, or could Trump be more prone to transitioning to STO when the wave arrives?
 
I‘ve wondered about that as well a couple of times. I would need to check it again but how it was explained and I understood it as well was that guy just saw those 5, quote, “right there“, in that immediate area at the time and later he or someone else counted 8 because they looked more closely and saw the others. But is that really the case? It certainly curious that he initially counted the exact number that would be in line with the idea of a second shooter having fired the first three shots from somewhere else.
This may be in line with first responders/impressions/observations are more likely to be accurate and less likely to be observing a staged or interfered with scene?

I have been trying to find one of Chris Martensons earlier videos where he was analysing an extremely brief amount of film footage of Crooks on the roof with a rifle aimed, at the same moment the first shot rang out. The problem with that is that it was only a couple of frames, and then somebody moved in front of the camera and blocked the picture. Martenson, who uses guns in his private life, said: "There's no gun recoil" and thus came to the conclusion that Crooks didn't take the first shot. However, I have not been able to find that footage. It was based on only a couple of frames as well as an example of someone firing a gun in the prone position and what the recoil actually is.
