Here’s another article not linking it with abortion law

https://spectrumlocalnews.com/tx/sou...lated%20deaths.

Deaths were going up in 20 and 21 after accounting for Covid. The Texas heart beat law and the civil liability law passed Sept 21 so less likely to be the cause of the rise in this data.

I’m betting data collection is responsible for the outlier data.

A letter from the man who tried to assassinate Trump at the golf course was shared with the media today.

Quote:
One letter, addressed to “The World” said: “This was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump but I failed you. I tried my best and gave it all the gumption I could muster. It is up to you now to finish the job; and I will offer $150,000 to whomever can complete the job.”

Trump “ended relations with Iran like a child and now the Middle East has unraveled,” the letter says.

They released a letter with him offering to pay someone to clip Trump?

It's worth mentioning that the letter is from several months ago. The way it's presented here makes it seem like it was written recently.

Quote:
A witness told investigators that Routh had dropped off a box at his home months before, which “contained ammunition, a metal pipe, miscellaneous building materials, tools, four phones, and various letters.” After learning of the apparent assassination attempt, the witness opened the box, according to the filing.

He used tape to attach the scope to the firearm?
Might miss at the 100ft Trump scheduled to be away in a few minutes. Not a great assassin, apparently. It is kind of strange that in a country that's gun crazy, it seems no one can shoot for ####.

Heh, yeah. That sounds like something they may have wanted to keep on the down low. Not that anyone will get paid, but there are a lot of stupid people out there.

That’s why Republicans always get worried about magazine clip sizes. They need 30 shots to hit their target.

They are trying to get left wing dudes to do a right wing, gun nut's job. It's not surprising they can't kill him.

Trump talking to women: 'I am your protector. I want to be your protector... you will no longer be abandoned, lonely, or scared. You will no longer be in danger, you will no longer be thinking about abortion.'
And then he said 'I have always defended and supported IVF...fertility...and so has the Republican Party... we want those babies... I will protect women at a level never seen before. They will finally be healthy, hopeful, safe & secure. Their lives will be happy, beautiful, and great again'

What gelatinous creep he is. Does any woman not want to use bear spray on someone who talks to them like this?

How far was the shot anyway?

I used to be pretty accurate with iron sites to around 300ms, and Trump is a big ass target.

He was set up a hole or two ahead of where Trump was, when secret service spotted him. Article said Trump would have been within a hundred feet in 10 or 15 minutes.
I think at the time he was about 400 yds out

360m that's a long shot on iron sights

I would strongly advise you not to continue this topic on a public forum that may, nay, probably, is monitored by the alphabet soup agencies.

But he was a local sexpot who died sucking his own dick, unless that was just an elaborate FBI coverup
