On Saturday

For those that have no training in firearms, the short range involved of maybe 150 yards, is literally nothing. It would be virtually impossible for even a recruit level marksman with an AR-15 type rifle that he or she had zeroed him or herself to come away with anything other than a headshot, even without a scope. Thank goodness, this deranged individual apparently either had no training or had to rush his shots. That does not excuse those that permitted him to get to that point with a long arm in the first place. When a team, any kind of team, arrives at a place where they will be setting up for a while, all avenues of approach or attack are assessed and then guarded. Many of these folks serving in this capacity are combat veterans. They know better. Someone did not do their job. I won't take it any further than that. The Director of the US Secret Service is Kimberly Cheatle, the Secret Service is part of Homeland Security. The Secretary of Homeland Security is Alejandro Mayorkas who has already sat idly by while tens of thousands of illegal aliens have entered this nation, creating many problems that needed not be created. Is it too much to ask for one of these bureaucrats to raise their hand and say that this is their turf and count on them to face the public and explain? Should they resign? That's not for me to say, but they should have already been visible and seen as in command. Guess that's just too much to ask from this very close to being "derelict in their duty" crew. Always Faithful.
