“Under no pretext"

Rules (Under review):

1. NO BUYING, SELLING OR TRADING of guns or accessories. Take that to Reddit and /r/GunAccessoriesForSale or Armslist.com
1. Censor all personally identifiable information in posts including serial numbers on firearms.
1. Any post or comment advocating illegal action will be removed and the poster warned. A second infraction will result in a ban.
1. Unironically suggesting the SKS as a usable rifle in the 21st Century when there are things like the AK and AR that cost only a bit more might result in a ban, it depends on how we feel.
1. Discussion of hunting is acceptable but please put "CW: hunting" in post titles. Debating the ethicality of hunting is also fine, but keep it civil and don't derail other people's threads.

In your option on a scale of 1 to 10 - how badly did the Secret Service screw up?

I'm not a gun guy and I've been lazy (I only read the very short article) but to me it seems like a 10/10 "What the fuck were they thinking?" screw up.

Information wasn't garbled, it's the media war on guns, with the AR pattern rifle being used as a scape goat.

"See, see, even your precious Trump was assasinated with your beloved AR15!" Media asshats would love to print that.

Nevermind they have no idea what an AR15 is, nor semi-auto, auto, machine gun, etc.

And yet here we have a crazy, non-conservative attempting to assassinate a president.
