So much so that I'm starting to believe that it was a false flag. Like, really, you try to assassinate someone under secret service protection -- arguably making them one of the most difficult people to assassinate -- and you don't even put in a few weekends of range time? You don't even zero your optic properly? You get as far as using a rangefinder and figuring out the distance to your target ahead of time, but you don't bother zeroing your optic. Really? Make it make sense to me. permalink fedilink source parent
