How do 2 civilians see the shooter, but not secret service?? 🤔

[ronhill]

People were telling the secret service that there was a man the roof 5 or so minutes before he started shooting and the secret service did nothing. What does that tell you?

[kathleengerke]

I feel bad for the family that lost a family member. My Condolences.

[Tootnscoot]

Why is it everyday civilians know to watch rooftops but not the secret service

[mikehigh]

I don't trust any body that's investigating this😡

[tiggercares]

Why didnt any law enforcement listen to the people who were telling them about the guy on the roof with a gun?

[biscuit]

Secret service what the heck, is this a joke, how did you miss a dude on a white frickin roof with a gun.

[lawyerlib]

Could you please talk about how the Secret Service did not see this when civilians did?

[stephiegetsit]

The special services didn't secure all the roof tops

[donlord]

It's a line of sight obvious threat! And it wasn't covered! Secret service failed the client and the other people who were shot and killed, Unacceptable!

[tammieferro]

I’m a Trump supporter but hello people told the police someone was up there and someone is dead and two people are in the hospital.!!!

[mxkxclv]

The secret service never checked the roof? How strange... are they part of it?

[Quentyn]

Ss showed remarkable incompetence not to secure rooftops, not have a drone, not to secure water tower, and to ignore police reports of armed shooter seen by people 10 min earlier.

[Jim-suen]

Easton Smith, who was outside of the security perimeter at the rally, said he saw a man climbing up the roof of a nearby building. Smith said he tried to alert the authorities for three to four minutes, but thought they probably could not see the gunman because of the slope of the roof. “Why is there not Secret Service on all of these roofs here?” he asked. “This is not a big place. It’s a security failure, 100% security failure.”

[rickhaworth]

Did he just say that JFK was shot by more than one gunman?!

[christopherlittle]

I don't buy it. No way the secret service did not identify a position that would be critical.

[borabora]

this rooftop was outside the perimeter, but still it was only 130 yrds away on a one story building. there was no excuse for the secret service. director should resign.

[bcc]

A shooter makes it to a rooftop? 🤷 How does this even happen?

[dawnm.h.reeves]

Let me ask you this.
200 yards away many witnesses watched and yelled at authorities that a man with a gun was climbing up on a roof and the authorities seemed to ignore them witnesses.
200 yards!

[CharlesGoad-dudm]

The secret service is compromised. How else could a shooter get on that roof?
