This is getting crazy tho…sry but obvious at this point Trump should never have been on that stage and this guy never should have been able to get a shot off, that simple

[justjosie]

The fact that all those people were even able to stand there along the fence and not have gone through any security check is unacceptable too.

[manymany]

a ten yr old could have identified that roof as a problem

[stacylbrewer]

This just gets worse and worse for the Secret Service.

[drakv]

For the love of God release all the videos uncensored. Almost every video is this shaky 480P quality. What cell phones are these witnesses using.

[SK-rrop]

2:40 "Secret Service saved us that day". No, the Secret Service's inaction almost killed you that day

[EricBlair-jgux]

why in holy heck have you blurred the footage?

[anywhereroam]

Can’t see anything because you blurred it

[furtrapper]

The sheriff’s sniper team shot him. The secret service did nothing but get in the way.

[scotthutchens]

These news networks should remove their headline banners at the bottom of the screen so viewers could see more of the pictures.

[neurocaballero]

So secret service needs 60 days? maybe they should just hire regular people, they seem to be working faster

[bobsambo]

Yeah ... so why did the video cut off RIGHT when we were getting close to seeing Crooks (supposedly) walking into the event?

[markrdavis]

There was Thomas Crooks in plain view of everyone. Then just a few minutes later he is gone forever. SMH, this could of been prevented

[LTLMedia]

Hard to watch a video when they blur the whole damn thing out.

[straydog]

I watched this live on TV last night.. The dash cam footage showing Crooks walking by the side of road and turning to enter the rally, showed him very clearly.. Now you have him blocked by your banner and unnecessary closed captions before cutting away too soon..Why has this been edited to where we can no longer see that he was not carrying a ladder, not carrying a gun, and not wearing a backpack?.. Main stream media should be able to show the truth, instead of blurring images and carefully editing footage.

[DavidJEyre]

At 3:17 to 3:21 where we are seeing the shooter on the roof, WHY is the image of the shooter blurred out? This portion of the video is useless if it's blurred out.

[josgood]

Dude walked across the roof 2 minutes 55 seconds before the first shot. Ridiculous.

[jeffreyhowarth]

One of the pieces of the puzzle is who owned the white van seen at the rally and later towed

[KateArete]

What is the timestamp for that dash cam footage? Your banner blocks the time.

[davidlinscheid]

This reckless behavior by the shooter strongly suggests that he wasn't worried about being seen, because he didn't fear a reprisal from what he believed were fellow conspirators, or he was a moron.
