I would have made the shot center mass. Headshots are too risky.
As purely a thought exercise; if shooter had to take the shot from distance and was using small caliber, imagine head shot would be more effective. I wouldn't use a .22LR for self defense but know ppl do and are lethal.

Just because you got shot at don't mean you get to be president.

A .22 hornet would have done the job from 150 meters.

One inch to the right and it would have punched his right eye through the back of his head.

So many fags (well known celebs that I actually respect) are coming out with "There's no place for violence in our democracy!"

Then why the fuck did Thomas Jefferson write this?
And what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is it’s natural manure.

I'm talking to a friend who is currently in his 18th year in the infantry. He tells me the wound is consistent with a ricochet graze. Combine that with reports of two dead in the crowd and the logical conclusion immediately comes into focus. Two wahoos in the crowd started shooting at each other and Trump got grazed by a ricochet. Not an assassination attempt but an indictment of how wildly unstable his core base is.

The Revolution, Civil War, Race Riots in the 60s, Summer of Most Peaceful Protests in '20 and countless other examples.... violence is the only thing everyone understands and affect real change.

People may not like it but it's a fact.

I don't believe that for one moment (two dudes just having a gun fight). But a strong narrative for the left to jump on.

The blood of a tyrant has been spilled

My friend in the Army isn't "the left" he was simply giving his opinion based on available evidence as someone who is more experience in combat with firearms than a good majority of the country. I was providing his opinion because it's a hell of a lot more informed than mine.
