Here's what I wonder: How many of those "protesters" milling around the guy
actually were Secret Service agents ready to take him out if he made the
wrong move? How many .300 Win. Mag sniper rifles were trained on him by SS
sharpshooters?

Probably few to none. More likely .308 (7.62mm) for routine sniper
work, .338 Lapua for longer ranges.

"First Law of Leftist Debate
The more you present a leftist with factual evidence
that is counter to his preconceived world view and the
more difficult it becomes for him to refute it without
losing face the chance of him calling you a racist, bigot,
homophobe approaches infinity.

This is despite the thread you are in having not mentioned
race or sexual preference in any way that is relevant to
the subject." Grey Ghost
