Man tried to grab cop's gun to kill Trump

http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016...l?intcmp=hpbt3

A man arrested at a Donald Trump rally in Las Vegas over the weekend told authorities he tried to grab an officer's gun so he could kill the candidate, according to court documents released Monday.


A complaint filed in U.S. District Court in Nevada charges Michael Steven Sandford, 19, with an act of violence on restricted grounds. A judge denied him bail at a court hearing Monday.

...

If he failed, Sandford stated he booked tickets for a Trump rally in Phoenix and would try to kill Trump there. He added that he had been planning to attempt to kill Trump for about a year, but decided he would act on this occasion because he finally felt confident about trying it.

So the dude enters the country from Great Britain drives from Hoboken to San Bernadino stalking Trump, visits a gun range so he can practice shooting a gun. Then when he finally has the balls to try it, he reaches for a security guard's gun and tries to pull it out of his holster.

I wonder who is bankrolling this clown?

I didnt know Dave was in the country.

I couldn't help but thinking of Dave as soon as I read the thread title. He should defiantly be blamed for everything that happens on that side of the pond, as well as what anyone from that side does when they come here to visit

Seems fair enough!!

The thought process is what is so hilarious to me:

1. Fly to America
2. Drive all over the country stalking Trump.
3. Practice shooting a gun (since he's never had one)
4.
5. Kill Trump.

The guy, thankfully, makes Mateen look like a professional.

I think my question is why a British guy wanted to do it. He doesnt even live here. lol

Ok, so say that he was successful. Does the Republican nod automatically go to whoever was 2nd in the number of delegates? That would be interesting, because those that voted for Trump might not have necessarily voted for whoever was 2nd.

The funniest part to me is how he reaches for the security guard's gun. Amateur.

Probably because he is mentally ill.

Not being sarcastic, but I am assuming that providing he acted of his own volition he will have some kind of mental Ill healh, like a psychosis.

But he also is either independently wealthy or somebody has been cashing his checks. That's who I'd like to see identified.

Go read about all of the people who've attempted assassniations on our Presidents. It's pretty fun.
