Just announced that the secret service agent was struck with buckshot and not friendly fire.

Good. That was troubling thinking it might be friendly fire.

I thought the shooter had bird shot? Say what? What assassin would be stupid enough to use birdshot?

I'm not sure who posted the birdshot thing cause charging a hallway full of agents with a shotgun shooting birdshot would just be a suicide attempt, not a serious attempt at an assassination. Using buckshot means that you might actually be trying to kill somebody. So it makes a little more sense now.

That dumbass probably went with what he thought was the largest size available…#9’s. Did you guys hear the news say about 20 times that the pistol ammo was “HOLLOW POINTS!!!!!” Like that was a big deal.

Shooter's lawyer is saying he didn't fire the shotgun. Well, he probably had the only shotgun there , the spent shell will match the rest of shells in the magazine , it's all on film..............

I'm pretty sure he's implying the shooter was dumb and thought that #9's was bigger than buckshot because of the larger number.
The true mark of a man is not how he conducts himself during times of prosperity, but how he conducts himself during times of adversity.
