I was kinda surprised that Patriots didn't do more. I want to believe that I would have done something more but I know that is being judgmental since I wasn't there in that situation.
I'm on ladders all day at work. Actually been on one at home most days for a while too.. I would have been up that bitch and across that perilous roof in no time.
also throw whatever you can find at the shooter; PREVENT HIM FROM GETTING A CLEAN SHOT.
edit: I just had another thought: If for whatever reason you cannot hit him (maybe he's protected by a building and he's peeking through a window), you could also just simply throw objects in front of him, obstruct his line-of-sight. One might argue that this would get in the way of Counter-Snipers, but the ultimate goal is to prevent the bad guy from shooting the good guy(s). Other LEOs/S.S. can take care of the badguy if the Counter-Sniper can't blow his brains out, maybe they could even capture him alive and interrogate him later.
I wonder if it would've helped had the people who noticed all gotten together with those around them, passed the info, and started yelling "ROOF!" and all pointed at the roof if Trump would've noticed and gotten down.
Telling the SS won't do shit. Telling the cops won't do shit. Better to inform the big guy so he can see it himself and gtfo before bullets start flying. Plus, the worthless LE would've been forced to do their job if the whole place is yelling it... maybe.
I remember they called that “The Human Mic” during Occupy Wall Street.
People would shout something, then the people nearby would shout what they heard, and then the next people nearby those people, and it would ripple from the original speaker all the way to the people in the back.
People who go to rallies, please please bring a whistle blower or a portable mini loud speaker or siren speaker that blast real loud. It could save lives in the future
All u gotta do is blast it loud and everyone looks at you and you profusely point to the suspect while yelling HELP
Loudspeaker sounds like an idea. Would the rally security allow those? If somebody could yell "Shooter! Get Trump out!" that at least might draw some attention.
Oh well, and then we will probably get some Dem activist who will do that just for sh*ts and giggles and so that she can post the video on tiktok or instagram for views.
Yeah, I thought about the Dems 'doing this for fun' -- but I think in the current environment it would turn more people away from their side. (Provided that they're sane.)
I think it might be worth 'suffering through' a false alarm or two in order to protect Trump.
No one will hear you scream. Those that saw him should have gone to the front and screamed at Trump. No one will hear them at the back. I have no idea why not one of them bothered to go to the front right up to the stage and report it.
I think the people who saw the shooter were outside a fence? There is that video clip of the police looking stupid as they try to get past a fence to the building where he was.
P.S. Aside from the ear splitting dB heat my original choice delivers, another reason why I like it is it is large. It can be had in hunter orange as well. A sea of people wearing that on a lanyard would tell the shitbirds that the people are awake.
P.S. I know the one you posted (I probably have like a dozen of them). It's decent. I can also recommend this one. 120+ dB. It won't break your brain like the beast I originally posted, but it's very small and super useful. Imo, everyone should have one of these in their vehicle, and pocket/purse.
They didn't know what to do besides alert the authorities. How about next time trying this: While pointing at the perp, ALL TOGETHER keep shouting SHOO TER, SHOO TER, SHOO TER!
You have to yell something that makes everyone in the crowd turn and look.
"FREE BEER !!!!"
When everyone looks, point out the ass-ass-in on the roof. :>)

Hard core patriots were inside the fence sitting in the bleachers. They got their early and waited.
People outside the fence by the building didnt.
Me too. Where was the Let’s Roll mentality?
Well in this case they were not supposedly left to their own devices -- there were LE visible . . .
They were all disarmed
What do you think is going to happen when a man with a gun walks into a crowd of unarmed people?
You rush him.
CCP’s tactic in Korean War.

That's what I'm talking about.

WE can be Trump’s eyes and ears.
We have to be. He can't trust his security or the local police to do their jobs and protect him. That leaves us.
A critical thinker you are.
:DDDDDDDDDDDDDD

I also read/heard that you can whistle longer than you can scream/yell, saves more of your energy.

Had the same thoughts. But I'm hard headed that way. The cops failed to do shit, go up front and make a scene. At least they'd have pulled Trump.
Everyone who goes to a rally should bring a hurricane whistle and start hammering on it the second something is fugazi.

Nice option.
This one is a bit smaller (so it can always be on your keyring) - and it's almost as loud (certainly loud enough to get attention within a rally).

It kinda screams "Fight! Fight! Fight!", eh?
The People, United, will never be Divided.

I support any form of noise maker that can reach up to >125bB.
But I can't strap a top fuel funny car around my neck. Now I'm sad.
You can do it. I believe in you.
Alright. I'll try.
point and scream "HE HAS A GUN!"
Words like that have no power
Now, if they had their own guns...
Keep it simple. "GUN GUN GUN GUN" and point to the gunman.
I don't go places where I am not allowed to bear arms
They didn't know what to do besides alert the authorities. How about next time trying this: While pointing at the perp, ALL TOGETHER keep shouting SHOO TER, SHOO TER, SHOO TER!
Yell “GUN!” That will get everyone’s attention in the area and force a response.
Save extra money for bulletproof vest as well
