Question: Why is no one talking about the obvious problem about how a shooter got a chance to shoot someone [View all]

at an open rally?

At Trump's PA rally, Crooks must have carried in the AR-15. In plain sight. The only time that people noticed him was when he climbed up on the building. And even then, it took far too long for this combination of factors to register with legal authorities. Man walks in with lethal weapon. Man seeks out high ground.

It's obvious that the Republicans have achieved their objective: They have normalized the carrying of weapons in society, and by doing so, they have made us all less safe because they have stolen the golden minutes from us. It's the window of time when most sensible people spot danger, and have the time to retreat or find cover.
