  • USSS Agent Was Hit By Buckshot, Not Friendly Fire

    Live news :

    The report has come in that confirms the one USSS agent
    injured in the most recent assassination attempt against
    Trump was hit by a buckshot pellet - and only the perp
    had a shotgun.

    It had already been reported that the perp fired one
    shotgun blast as he was charging thru the checkpoint,
    but a question remained about what hit the officer.
    Other agents DID fire at the perp and it was thought
    the injury might have been a 'friendly fire' incident.

    But, not.

    This will add even more charges for Allen.

    A single buckshot pellet isn't all that powerful,
    basically a .32 caliber round ball, and at relatively
    low velocity. It's the cumulative effect of many
    pellets that does the damage to anyone directly
    fired upon. The agent was ALMOST out of the way.

    Now - who 'inspired'/goaded this perp ? Any money
    involved ?
