Funny thing is, there was video of a sniper literally watching the shooter as he climbed up on the roof, he only shot after the shooter started shooting. That's why he was killed so quickly. The sniper was a guy.

So, by Republican logic, I guess we should have less male agents, right? Since male snipers just inherently can't pre-empt a shooter even when they're looking directly at them.

(Sarcasm, obviously)

You got a link to that video?

I saw it as part of a Majority Report video analyzing some of the information around the shooting, but I time stamped the specific part where they play the clip of the sniper in the above link.

Bridge fails in Baltimore? Too much effort on diversity.

The only road into Jackson Hole WY gets washed away? I guess the federal government has forsaken red states.

Mr Trump, who is 6ft 3in tall.

Yes, I am also much taller than my real height.

Did you notice how when he was being shot at, the first thing he said was "let me get my shoes"? He's such a diva that if anyone had a chance to see his real height or snag one of his pumps, he'd be devastated.

Thank you! To me his first words after being shot were much more iconic than even that fist-flag-photo.

"Wait Mr. Secret Service Man, I can't go anywhere without my slutty little heels."

- Donald Trump, paraphrased, immediately following an assassination attempt

Fuck you Telegraph for putting that pejorative in your headline.

"Diversity hire" is the new N word. It's a racist dog whistle used by christofascists.

So anybody who isn't a white male is not qualified for any non-menial jobs?
