President Donald Trump wasn’t even in Florida at the time, and so we were spared the spectacle of a third attempt on his life. Nevertheless, it’s clear that when Austin Tucker Martin entered Mar-a-Lago in the early hours of Sunday morning armed with a shotgun and a fuel can, he wasn’t intending to take a dip in the pool or play a round of golf.
And it’s also clear that Austin Tucker Martin didn’t spring up out of nowhere. Like Thomas Crooks and Ryan Routh, Austin Tucker Martin is the logical result of the left’s overheated rhetoric and constant efforts to demonize and destroy Trump. Now, a retired FBI special agent has spelled out just how serious this problem has become.
There is more. Read the rest here.

According to Nicole Parker, this guy, like the two former attempts, is being praised for his attempt.
One headline is shouting that the parents of the *intruder* had recently lost a daughter in death, and now Secret Service Agents shot their son dead. The wording seemed to invite sympathy for the parents **and** criticize the agents.
If you don’t want to be “gunned down,” don’t point a weapon at Secret Service Agents.

somehistory,
Just wondering if this could possibly be “suicide by police”…
somehistory says
That is a possibility, James, Probably will never know for sure. The only way is if he put something in writing somewhere; to a friend or just in a journal.
But common sense would have told him what to expect from his actions.
James Lincoln says
Thanks for your reply, somehistory.
OLD GUY says
He knew he wasn’t supposed to be there with a weapon. hie intension was to do harm and destroy property, These agents did exactly what they are supposed to do. You can’t fix stupid.
Karen Levins says
I believe that these shootings are much bigger than a product of the vile rhetoric that is spewed by mainstream media. These are inside jobs, orchestrated by probably the CIA/FBI DEEPSTATE. These kids are probably a result of MK-ULTRA. Who knows when any of them started on this crazy path. It could have begun when they were just toddlers. They are always used as patsies, then thrown away like trash.
