Wind

It would be good to add information on the wind conditions. In Pittsburg winds blew from the WNW, which would be perfectly from the side, to miss to left, i.e. hitting the right ear. 82.209.143.42 (talk) 11:18, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

That'll be in the investigation. kencf0618 (talk) 11:28, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

It is interesting to think about but this is probably WP:OR until someone deigns to mention it somewhere. jp×g 🗯️ 11:31, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Windage is not a major issue with modern rifles. Slatersteven (talk) 11:51, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

If we just listened to one dude, we'd be all over the place. See #Requested move 13 July 2024. It seems like there is a high probability this will end up being included in the title. Raskuly (talk) 03:37, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Use of Live or Archived Sources

I noticed the archiving of some live sources. Should we not be simply linking live sources instead for higher accuracy and to prevent future confusion if the old sources report outdated information?

It is clear that the shooter was male, of slim build, with light to fair skin complexion. There are already hundreds of sources confirming this.

For instance: [1]

and who shot the attendees? The assassin or the secret service snipers?MisawaSakura (talk) 01:41, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Good point. I'm not aware of any current source offering this information, but I'm sure it will be available soon Vitreology (talk) 01:44, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

As I said, there are hundreds of reputable sources already. I'm planting the seed for further investigation, not the final solution Vitreology (talk) 01:43, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Well, link a reliable source then. No one is going to update it if you link to a Twitter video. C F A 💬 01:48, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Obviously, which is why I'm searching for other sources in between replying. Are you doing the same? Vitreology (talk) 01:52, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

The shooter was male. He was not a rally attendee. "He was outside the grounds" of the rally [2] Vitreology (talk) 01:55, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

"The gunman opened fire from AGR International, a plastic container manufacturing facility." [3] Vitreology (talk) 02:03, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

I've seen it claimed that the Butler Police Department has confirmed that the shooter is (Redacted) who has links to the Antifa extremist group, and that he uploaded a YouTube video saying justice was coming shortly before the attack. I've yet to see any MSM sources with this however, and have also seen it claimed this is a dangerous right-wing conspiracy theory which will be exploited to impose intensified crackdowns on Leftist movements. If the claim is false it may still be relevant as a false claim depending on how widespread it is.

Note that the shooter was outside the security perimeter using an unsecured rooftop. Security experts appear unclear on why such an obvious danger wasn't secured. On the other hand DHS apparently denied Trump's Security Service detail's urgent request for more protection and resources so perhaps they simply didn't have the manpower? 人族 (talk) 02:08, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Can you provide the sources where you've seen such claims about (redacted)? Thanks. Staraction (talk | contribs) 02:09, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

It is not widespread and definitely not confirmed. It was a rumour on Twitter. There are a few sources talking about the false claim, the most in-depth being this one. It was also mentioned in this NBC article. C F A 💬 02:31, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

"The shooting is being investigated as an attempted assassination. It is the first time that a U.S. president or presidential candidate was injured in an attempted assassination since Ronald Reagan was shot in 1981."

The first sentence suggests that it is not definitive whether it was an attempted assassination ("investigated"). The second sentence implies that it was an attempted assassination as a matter of fact. JDiala (talk) 01:48, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

I like this change better.

@C F A , The Truth MSG (URL/link) in my Talk post on the matter, is from Trump sharing "…the shooter, who is now dead. I was shot with a bullet that pierced the upper part of my right ear. I knew…". Since it came from Trump's social media account I believe the URL/link should be in the Wiki article (I prefer as a reference).

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The first or second sentence of the "background" paragraph should be something like

Donald Trump and some of his supporters have long been claiming his political opponents were targeting him for assassination, a claim dismissed as a conspiracy theory by some medias now proved wrong.

All three elements are important:

DT and associates claimed an assassination plot would happen;
major media dismissed this as a conspiracy theory from right-wing looneys;
those media are now proved wrong, while so called right wing wackos are proven right.

After that, we could have a debate on the reliability of those media, and whether they actually belong in our list of reliable sources. But that would probably be too much to ask, I forecast a lot of head explosions at the simple idea that cnn, nbc, forbes etc. are actually worse than Tucker and Jones (not meaning these are any good, mind you).

Trump was not shot in the ear, the glass from a teleprompter flew and cut his ear. Let’s be truth tellers. 70.142.25.119 (talk) 17:39, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made.

Drama vs. reality

WP:NOTAFORUM. Please take conspiracy theories somewhere else – we say what reliable sources say. — Czello ^(music) 18:09, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

I don't have the time to read the copious comments above, but I watched the replay of video of the assassination attempt just a few minutes after it happened. I quickly became skeptical. Trump's wound didn't look like anything that could have been caused by a "through and through" high velocity round. In the hysteria of reporting, I can understand why it was reported that he was "shot." However, as the "fog of war" cleared, there was considerable commentary in reliable sources that he was injured by a fragment of glass or hard plastic from the shattered teleprompter. Trump's personal account should be tempered by his need and desire for drama rather than reality. It would have more dramatic (as we can see above) impact that he was hit by a high velocity bullet rather than wounded by teleprompter fragments. He also has a propensity to lie about damn near everything. The Washington Post, for example, counted his lies or misstatements of fact during his four years in office and the total, if I remember correctly, was 30,573. We ought to let the dust settle until a more careful analysis comes to be established. Finally, if he was grazed by a bullet, chances are it would have wounded or killed the person immediately behind him, which I don't believe was the case. Activist (talk) 14:01, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Just say it simply: "I'm a staging conspiracy theorist" 62.217.185.86 (talk) 17:11, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

@Activist you can literally see pictures where the teleprompter glass is fully intact. As often happens with such conspiracy theorists, you've not sought even a shred of evidence despite it being abundant in this case. Bjngobkngo (talk) 17:51, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

I've been trying to add a section for conspiracy theories, as many articles regarding similar incidents frequently have specific sections for conspiracy theories, but it's been deleted twice, so as not to fall foul of 3RR, I'm bringing it up here.

The text was as follows: "After the assassination attempt, conspiracy theories quickly accumulated millions of views on social media. On X, conspiracy theories "gained traction just minutes after the incident occurred", the word “staged” becoming the second-highest trending topic immediately after “Trump”. "Antifa" also became a top trending topic after posts on X blamed the shooting on a “prominent Antifa activist”, falsely identifying him as "Mark Violets" using a photograph of Marco Violi, an Italian soccer vlogger. Alex Jones livestreamed and made posts blaming "the deep state", and highly followed QAnon-related accounts shared names of high-profile Democrats and Republicans, accusing them of colluding with the CIA.^[1]"

I am really not sure we need to have this stuff in there at all. An extremely dramatic high-profile event happened, in which some guy tried to shoot a current presidential candidate (and former president) -- of course there are doing to be kooks on the Internet saying "da masonz" or "da alienz" or "da jooz" or whatever shit idiot brain fungus they're cooking up this week. Morons tend to say this kind of stuff any time anything happens ever. I don't really think it is that noteworthy unless there ends up being some unusually high amount of brain fungus here. Compared to, say, the normal amount of brain fungus that happens around American presidential elections (and around American presidential assassination attempts) it seems like this is pretty normal and expected. jp×g 🗯️ 04:43, 14 July 2024 (UTC)
