Trump’s attempted assassin was rejected from school gun club
Gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks was also a member of local sports club – Clairton Sportsmen’s Club in Pennsylvania – which has a 200-yard rifle rangewww.independent.co.uk
The 20-year-old gunman who tried to assassinate Donald Trump at a campaign rally was previously rejected from his high school shooting club because he was 'a bad shooter', it has been revealed.
As authorities work to determine what motivated the 20-year-old to stage the assassination attempt on the former president, former classmates, friends and family members are coming forward with details about his background.
Crooks’ former classmates at Bethel Park High have revealed that he was interested in firearms during his school days – and had attended trials for the school’s rifle team.
Jameson Myers told ABC News that Crooks fell short of making the team and was asked not to return to the club after the preseason due to his 'dangerous' shot.
'He didn’t just not make the team, he was asked not to come back because how bad of a shot he was, it was considered like, dangerous,' said Myers, who went to both elementary and high school with Crooks.
A member of the rifle team, who wished to remain anonymous, also told the network that Crooks’ 'shot terribly' and 'wasn’t really fit for the rifle team'.
Crooks graduated from high school in 2022 but his interest in guns clearly didn’t end there.
He was a member of local sports club – Clairton Sportsmen’s Club in Pennsylvania – which has a 200-yard rifle range, CNN reported.
The club’s attorney confirmed in a statement that the shooter was a member but said they could not 'additional commentary in relation to this matter in light of pending law enforcement investigations'.
Haven't you posted a bunch ot tok toks in here of random nobodies giving their dipshit opinions (assumption here because I never click on those)?Are you trying to rationalize the attempted assasination of a former president because of one dipshit with a tasteless tailgate wrap?
Democrats talk about punching Trump in the face.
-But many of the BLM protesters and Antifa extremist are White.Yep the whites didn't burn down walgreens
Yeah, those freedom indexes are bunk. It basically amounts to “are you doing what the eu wants you to do? If so, FREEDOM” as if the EU or UN get to decide.
As far as I’m concerned, any country that doesn’t have free speech or the right to bare arms aren’t even worth considering as free.
I think we all understand that, and it’s clear that some Secret Service protocols will likely need to be changed. But protection for presidents and presidential candidates needs to remain with a federal agency with federal oversight, not some private, armed security detail. Fuck that.Yeah, its not like a bullet came within milimeters of taking his head off.
You don't even understand the words that come out of your mouth. So you reacted without even understanding why or what you reacted to.
Me saying that Destiny isn't a leftist isn't a defense of him. It's just not what he is. If you think there's no difference between him, an AOC, a Cenk Ughiar, a David Pakman, etc, then you just further prove how little you know about left wing politics.
He spends more time crapping on people on the left than he does right wingers.
lol And the identity of the right is what? "We can be united, IF you agree with everything that I say. So get your Bible and let's start praying"
What a choice.

I see that I was right to add my second paragraph to show how hilariously predictable this forum is.
Get the opinion of a handful of random people? Perfect evidence because they said what I liked! Thorough analysis with clearly defined parameters one can discuss? Conspiracy!
Progressive with an AR and a son that loves guns?And, no doubt, progressives. I wonder what this kid grew up hearing at the dinner table to think he had to go shoot someone over politics?
And this kind of language too, right?Yeah this kind of language by those in the left need to be toned down.
