Person aimed for the head, seems like he wasn't trained how to kill people.
Anyway, the person knew they would die seconds later, heavy breathing makes it is massively harder to aim when you are nervous, then it is easy to miss a moving head at 140 yards.
- chgs 2y agoPresumably Trump would have a vest on
- Jensson 2y agoRifle rounds go straight through medium vests, you need a really heavy and bulky vest to stop them, Trump wouldn't wear one of those. The typical vests you see just stop low caliber bullets like pistols, and then you hope secret service can stop anyone with a rifle from getting a shot.
- chgs 2y agoThe times I’ve worn vests I’ve had to have ceramic plates in for ak-47 style bullets, but I’d assume that the secret service would have something more fancy available.
- 1992spacemovie 2y agoNope. Thick layered ceramics are still pretty much the best stuff to stop high energy rounds. Got 2 sets of AR500 plates myself.

- oceanplexian 2y agoThere is actually now very expensive cutting edge stuff (FRAS) that’s flexible and can barely stop a 5.56 round, and i’d assume important people have whatever top secret upgrade exists for that, but that could be wrong.
