Looks like someone took some shots at prez candidate Donald Trump at a rally in PA. From the videos I’ve seen, it looks like he did get grazed.

It’s not clear at all that that’s what happened. It is completely plausible that someone would shoot a firearm at a candidate in a hotly contested presidential election. Let wait for evidence to roll in yeah?
You know for a fact that if the shoe were on the other foot, this is exactly the rhetoric we’d be hearing.
You’re right. Wouldn’t surprise me one bit. But I still hold all parties to a standard of honest discourse.
Doesn’t make it right or acceptable.
So let’s not do what they do and live in an evidence-based world and not an emotion-based one.
The “facts don’t care about your feelings” party doesn’t care about facts and spends a lot of time on how their feelings are hurt.
My evidence (in addition to the weirdness of his reaction, and the convenient blood) - has any article mentioned a shooter being seen/shot/arrested/known to exist? I can’t remember a time where there was a shooting and no article said ANYTHING about a shooter, only about the shots. Nothing could be better for the Trump campaign than for him to be “almost” assassinated.
Bruh it happened like an hour ago. But news stories about the shooter being killed are coming out now.

Wonder if this should be posted as a new article to the news communities? It’s important, more relevant information.
Unfortunately that’s just one update on a page with regular updates. You would have to find a better link.
OK fair, I couldn’t find any such reference when I looked, but clearly did a shit job.
I’m still not capable of believing anything in Trump’s life is genuine, so it still feels staged to me, but I acknowledge that my evidence has been debunked.
Sure. It could have been faked.
On the other hand, if I was an unhinged person with a gun and I thought there was a good chance a fascist dictator might run the U.S., I might be inclined to try to do something about it.
There’s no reason not to rule something like that out.
Yeah the truth is we don’t know. There are lots of possible causes we can’t rule out at this point, it seems dangerous for a publicity stunt, but it’s possible. Someone afraid and somewhat unhinged, among other possibilities.
Yes it would be the case. Should we start behaving like right wing conspiracy theorists now?
Yeah but that’s because Republicans are fuckin idiots
