    Imagine if his motivation was to prove he had great aim and that they did him wrong. Maybe he just wanted to become the most well known sniper-assassin in the modern world. Maybe that’s the reason he didn’t use scope, he wanted his memory to be that of the rifle maverick. I wonder what went through his head after he realised he missed. I mean, other than a bullet.

        I’ve heard that “no scope” detail elsewhere too. But would love to confirm it or have it disproven.

        It is the detail that I keep coming back to that would indicate something about his state of mind, lack of rationality, lack of time, something.

        Nope. He used an ar style rifle and nailed that shot 300 yards away. A fly fart could have been the difference between Trump’s loss of hearing and his loss of brain.

      It’s like if Hitler was allowed to become an artist, except it’s a kid wanting to shoot guns.

        I’m not sure where exactly I’ve read or heard that, sorry. Those past 2 days were very information dense. I’m sure I’ve heard it being referenced a few times though, along with the gun having only iron sights.
