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.

Would not have been surprising though, had it have happened. The overweight female SS agent that was a danger to herself and others, trying to holster her weapon, during the Butler shooting was on duty for the event.

No idea. I thought that’s what I read earlier. Must have been wrong

I read the same thing here. 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.

And it was a "38 automatic" not a 380 semi Automatic .



"Why do you ask"?

Too many people spend money they don't have , on things they don't need, to impress people they don't know.

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.............. slap

If he had buckshot then I think the smallest size is #4 so not sure there is a #9 buckshot??

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.
