| 21. Author: The One Who Knocks Date: Mon 27th Apr 2026. 12:11 From a BBC report on the incident. Police said security officials and the suspect exchanged fire on a level of the hotel that was one floor above where Trump and other guests had gathered. CCTV posted on social media by Trump shows the suspect charge through one of these checkpoints, before Secret Service agents open fire. Authorities have said he was in possession of a shotgun, handgun and multiple knives. He exchanged gunfire with officers before being stopped. CNN`s Wolf Blitzer told the network he saw the suspect shoot several times using a "very very serious" weapon. And although my eyes were open They just might as well be closed Reply |

| 23. Author: NMCmassive Date: Mon 27th Apr 2026. 13:49 red-star-par, Sun 26 Apr 10:29 You should ask David Dutch and James Copenhaver if it was staged. Or the wife and daughter of Corey Comperatore. They’d tell you how ‘fake’ it was Unless you’ve of course got some explanation for them being shot and it still being fake. COYP Reply |
| 24. Author: BouncyPar Date: Mon 27th Apr 2026. 14:05 NMCmassive, Mon 27 Apr 13:49 Given where the world has found itself recently, the power they have, and the depths of depravity these people stoop to, it wouldn`t be unthinkable that perhaps some regular folk would be sacrificed to make an event seem more credible. Their deaths weren`t fake, but that doesn`t necessarily mean it happened exactly how the official narrative claims Reply |
| 25. Author: The One Who Knocks Date: Mon 27th Apr 2026. 16:44 Fact is I don`t know the first thing about the anatomy of an ear and how it reacts to being grazed with a bullet. I`ll concede it does seem a bit strange that it doesn`t appear to have caused any permanent scarring but I`ve never seen a close up of his ear. The thing that stops me from believing that either attempt was staged is this. How do you convince, in the case in Pennsylvania, a young man to climb onto a roof and start taking pot shots at a presidential candidate (remember he wasn`t President Trump at the time) ? Not just take pot shots though but to actually miss on purpose? Or in the case at weekend how do you convince a by all accounts, one time pleasant, 31 year old college graduate, to try to storm a presidential dinner and start shooting at federal agents? I mean if it isn`t staged then he`s spending the rest of his life in a prison cell getting out for one hour a day to stretch his legs. If it is staged though then what is he going to say at the court case? Seems he`ll be able to get a pretty cushy pleas deal. And although my eyes were open They just might as well be closed Reply |

| 27. Author: BouncyPar Date: Mon 27th Apr 2026. 18:29 NMCmassive, Mon 27 Apr 17:26 Honestly, I don`t know, and we (the general public) never will. I don`t believe that this was a true attempt as portrayed by official sources. There are various reasons why it may have been staged, depending how deep down the wormhole you wish to dive, but my gut instinct would be to push the need for a more secure ballroom to be built at the White House. Ive spent several years working a close protection detail both here and abroad, and several more years working in cordon security. Quite simply, this type of breach, where someone could get remotely close to a primary target just by running, doesn`t happen... Unless they want it to happen. There`s so many errors at play, several outer cordons, plain clothe observers, the red flag of the suspect arriving at the hotel and booking in the day before (likely wouldn`t be possible, as all residents would be vetted in advance). It just all screams of a setup as opposed to a series of negligent errors. There`s every possibility that the location shown on the cctv wasn`t even in the hotel. Likewise, there`s many reasons why someone would agree to be a patsy. If we are going to stretch our imagination to any of the above being possible, let`s stretch a little further. Let`s consider that our suspect has messed up a previously ok life. Fallen into huge debt, drugs, or maybe even killed someone in a bar fight (it`s a stretch, but go with me here). He fits the profile of who "they" want for an operation like this, so they offer him a deal. They create him a new ID with backstory, he takes the rap, sits tight in protection for a while, goes through a show trial, gets sentenced, and then disappears to start a new life elsewhere. I know it probably seems crazy, but so did Epsteins island a few years ago. There`s also the possibility of MK Ultra at play, and our suspect having absolutely no idea at all of his actions. It used to be a conspiracy theory, now it`s been admitted that the US military have brainwashed people, and are able to "switch them on" to a mission by simply playing a noise or saying a particular phrase. It all sounds far fetched, I get that. But we live in a world where nothing is as it seems anymore, and it`s our duty to question the narrative, especially if it doesn`t add up Reply |

| 29. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Tue 28th Apr 2026. 05:17 He’s right about him being a racist, paedophile and rapist. He was touchy as fk when the interviewer brought that up  It`s bloody tough being a legend Ron Atkinson - 1983 Reply |
| 30. Author: wee eck Date: Tue 28th Apr 2026. 12:38 Trump is incredibly thin-skinned. The lady from CBS simply quoted the words written by the guy arrested for the shooting and he called her `nasty` for asking him the question. It`s hard to believe someone so sensitive to such reasonable interrogation could be elected to such a powerful position. Reply |

| 32. Author: Andrew283 Date: Sun 3rd May 2026. 06:34 Whole thing was an inside job. The security footage is embarrassing. I`ve seen better acting in school plays than the special forces showed Reply |

| 34. Author: NMCmassive Date: Sun 10th May 2026. 23:33 So basically we’ve got to make stuff up to try make it all fit in some elaborate story 🤷🏻♂️ Everyone seems to be screaming about the rise in the far right while ignoring politically motivated attacks and assassinations from the left. It’s all supposed to be inside jobs and the right doing it to themselves. Meanwhile on this side of the pond we’ve got protesters that are protesting reform getting votes while someone called ‘Q’ who’s a Tamil Indian on a student visa and will earn almost £80k a year as an MSP. It just doesn’t make sense to me. It’s actually embarrassing. COYP Reply |
| 35. Author: jake89 Date: Sun 10th May 2026. 23:51 Q was perfectly entitled to stand and was legitimately elected though. While some may question being represented by a trans immigrant, it`s who the public in Edinburgh voted for. Personally, as someone who has voted Green in the past, I find it frustrating that they are unable to make compromises with their policies, and also that they seem to have moved away from being a party that is about the environment to one about gender issues. My hope is that the SNP seek to work with all parties, including Reform if need be, to drive forward Scotland`s economy and improve the lives of the people of Scotland. Sadly, this won`t happen with certain characters within our political parties who care more about making a point than the people of Scotland. Reply |
| 36. Author: NMCmassive Date: Mon 11th May 2026. 00:56 jake89, Sun 10 May 23:51 How he’s even allowed to stand is embarrassing. He’s not even allowed to work full time yet we’ve allowed him to stand for government. Being elected as an MSP is supposed to be something that’s held in high regard and we’ve given it to someone who’s got zero skin in our game. If he makes a mess it won’t matter to him-he’ll disappear back to India. Not to mention that internationally, we look like fools. We aren’t taking the running of our country seriously, so why should anyone else? COYP Reply |
| 37. Author: OzPar Date: Mon 11th May 2026. 05:04 Is this true? For heaven`s sake! British citizenship should be a minimum requirement to stand in a political election. I can`t think of any other country that would allow this. Reply |
| 38. Author: ipswichpar Date: Mon 11th May 2026. 06:52 Yes, unfortunately it is. It is an absolute joke. Reply |
| 39. Author: The One Who Knocks Date: Mon 11th May 2026. 09:07 It`s also worth noting that he was elected as a list msp. He is as essentially elected by green party members as how many people who voted green with their second vote know who is where on each parties list? And although my eyes were open They just might as well be closed Reply |
| 40. Author: buffy Date: Mon 11th May 2026. 09:35 Instead of attacking the person, it was the Government which made the rule. This quote is from a member of the Green Party. “The Scottish Parliament rightly and explicitly chose to permit everyone with the right to live here to stand in elections, including new Scots on visas.” They added: “Q is on a valid visa with the right to work and live in Scotland, and is a Commonwealth citizen.” ”Buffy’s Buns are the finest in Fife”, J. Spence 2019” Reply |
