... The Secret Service had made plans for the President's secure travel via Marine One to traverse the 50 miles (100 miles round trip). The USMC grounded the helicopter due to weather conditions making the President's flight unsafe. How are you proposing the President should have reached the grounds of the event? Teleporting?

I'm not doing your homework for you, Sue. You're free to continue to make an absolute mockery of yourself in public, and I'm fine with it. It does beg the question though, why would you be fine with it? How about you? Can you explain to the forum please, in some detail, the logistics of arraigning a last minute Presidential motorcade to travel 100 miles on foreign soil, without being able to dictate to local law enforcement or military, or to properly secure the route, while under threat of assassination attempts?

I'm sorry, is your scroll bar broken? Is there something special or abnormal about you that prevents you from following along in the conversation like everyone else, and then prevents you from going back to see what you missed/dismissed during your failed attempts to troll? Pull up your big boy pants, and read back over the past few pages, Sue.

Let the reader note: You still haven't addressed a single point I posed, or question I asked, in regards to the logistics in play. Then you come here with this nonsense.

No, different from those. I think you know that though.

I would have as well, but then again, I'm not subject to the Presidential security protocols of the Secret Service or USMC, nor are you.

Is this an argument that the Secret Service and USMC should outsource Presidential security protocol to "high ranking officials all over the world"? You are adorable!

Actually, I'm laughing directly at him. One of them was out loud. Stupid is funny sometimes when it's adorable and benign. I mean, look at this: He's so far beyond the ability to be objective that it's hilarious. He's basically this guy:

And again, it's hilarious that you feel others are emotional over you making a fool of yourself. Everyone is laughing at you. You look like a moron. The left is so bad at this.

How many of them faced the same circumstances? Merkel and Macron are leaders of EU member nations, Macron the leader of the nation in question. No sovereignty issues. Merkel and Macron weren't making 100 mile unplanned trek by motorcade. Merkel and Macron had their transport pre-secured to the standards of their own Security agencies. Merkel and Macron are not subject to the Presidential security protocols of the USMC and Secret Service. The indisputable facts, which you have not been able to address: 1) That the Secret Service had secured the President's travel via Marine One as planned. 2) That the USMC determined that due to weather, Marine One could not be safely used to transport the President 3) That the Secret Service determined that due to active confirmed intelligence of an assassination plot, and the fact that the President would be making an unplanned, unvetted 100 mile trek across unsecured acreage in a foreign country where they could not dictate to law enforcement or properly secure the area, that it would be unwise to make the trip. Again, you're just mad because a President you hate wasn't put in a position to be assassinated for a photo-op.

Actually, I'm not. I'm relaying facts. And you're pouting because the actual facts don't align with your bias. Grow up.

On foreign soil with it's own sovereignty, laws and law enforcement mechanisms which he cannot dictate to, making a 100 mile unplanned trek by motorcade, across unsecured acreage, with active confirmed intelligence of an assassination plot? You aren't making yourself look any better here. Just dumber.

Was Macron on foreign soil with it's own sovereignty, laws and law enforcement mechanisms which he cannot dictate to, making a 100 mile unplanned trek by motorcade, across unsecured acreage? And again, is the President in charge of the decisions regarding his own security, especially those made with active confirmed intelligence of an assassination plot? I'll note that you didn't address a single point, or answer a single question; but rather continued to make emotionally driven assertions. Admit it: you're angry because our Secret Service won't put a President you hate in a position where they can't protect him, and he might be assassinated.

Issue One: Gary/Doug Marrone are the same person.

Thank you to all of you who served, and God bless you.

It had to happen 100% of the industry can't be into kid *****.

It's hilarious how poor the left is at this stuff. A term coined to describe those who are upset to the point of being unhinged and unreasonably over emotional, discarding logic and reason; redirected at someone pointing out that they've become upset to the point of being unhinged and unreasonably over emotional, discarding logic and reason.

... ALOL You believe that you making yourself look like a fool offends me? No, no, by all means, please carry on and demonstrate your complete ignorance of all things related to Presidential Security and transportation. Perhaps you have the details of what the transit for Macron and Merkle looked like? Were they scheduled to make a 100 mile round trip by unscheduled motorcade? Perhaps you have the details of their security protocols and can contrast them with those of Secret Service when protecting the President? Perhaps you can speak to how those protocols change under verified assassination plans on foreign soil? Perhaps you can demonstrate that the President makes the decisions regarding his security, rather than the Secret Service? What's that? You can't, because you're just a puppet with a brain so addled by TDS that you have lost any and all objectivity or critical thinking skills? Perhaps it's that you viscerally hate the President so much that you're attacking him, and those who protect him, for not endangering his life for a photo-op. Either way, please carry on. It's a valuable tool for those of us who support the President when the opposition cuts your pattern, and demonstrates exactly how ignorant, unthinking, and unhinged you are. Trump/Pence 2020 thanks you for your donation.

I appreciate it. I'll have to check it out.

I wouldn't discount it, but this is a phenomenon I was completely unaware of prior to Buffalo_Gal's posting it in this thread.

This is exactly correct. Are you familiar with Iraq and Afghanistan? How about Vietnam and Korea? The truth is that currently, in the modern military age, such resistances can, do, and are holding off the might of the United States military. In this argument I have every aspect of both history and the present working for me, and against you.

That is absolutely fascinating.

Are you really this stupid? The President flew to France in large part to attend this memorial service, and certainly knew it was politically advantageous for him to do so. The President does not make decisions about his security. The Secret Service was unable to secure a motorcade route which was apparently around 100 miles there, and back, to their standards, on short notice, once the weather had eliminated helicopter transit as an option. And they did their job well, considering that an actual assassination attempt on the life of President Macron was planned to happen during the event in question, and was thwarted by French authorities. The Secret Service obviously would have been made aware of the situation, and made the decision that there was far too much uncertainty and risk involved given necessary alterations to travel plans. Don't be a moron.

Over the long arch of human history, freedom is in it's infancy, and it was the use of force-multipliers by the general population against their oppressors which made it possible. The world is not free of tyrants, and even in recent history the first acts of oppressors includes removing the population's ability to resist. Human freedom is far too precious, and far to fragile, to sacrifice simply because a handful, or hundreds, or even thousands of innocents die in order that it stay alive. We cannot prevent tragedy, but we can try to prevent tyranny. And that begins with refusing to budge an inch on private gun ownership; regardless of how many emotional appeals you make that men should be slaves.
