"A man was shot and killed by law enforcement, including agents from the United States Secret Service, after he entered the secure perimeter of Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Fla...."

"... early Sunday morning, according to a statement posted by the agency on X. The man, who the agency said was 'in his early 20s,' was confronted near the north gate of the Mar-a-Lago complex, and was carrying what appeared to be a shotgun and a fuel canister, the Secret Service said."

The NYT reports.


We're told "a container that had been left on the ice." And in the X post about Mar-a-Logo, it says the now-dead person arrived with "a fuel can."

Self-defense. Rule of thumb: no protests, no confrontations while armed with a gun, scalpel, SUV, etc to entertain abortive ideation.

Democrats are just warming up for when voter ID requirements pass.

If voter ID passes then the Democrats will never win a national election again.

They are violent because they are losing power and they don't want to work real jobs.

I hadn't heard of the TKC ice rink incident, even though I frequently attend the free 6pm concerts there. Weirdly, when I went there last night, the metal detectors, which they have been using for the past few weeks, were not in use.

Also weirdly, the gift shop reopened after the customary post-Christmas rearrangement. I had been expecting a gilt extravaganza of TKC merch, but it was all the same old just KC stuff. Really missing a fundraising opportunity there. Collectors alone must be salivating, let alone MAGA people. CC, JSM

another young white left Reddit leftist. thats my guess.

Another innocent protester gunned down by Trump's Gestepo. When will the ruthless oppression end?

Was the guy at Mar-a-Lago wearing a dress?

Democrat socialists are really mad about losing their slave labor, illegal votes, illegal alien politcal power and their trafficked girls. They worked hard for 4 years for them.

Maybe it was chickensh*t.

US wins Gold in Hockey with goal in overtime!!!

Beasts of England said...

Maybe he was out of gas?

tim maguire said...

Unknown dark liquid?

Somebody spilled their coffee?

Beasts of England said...

Or worse - the can could have been filled with glyphosate…

n.n said...

Was he carrying a bag of rainbow-colored skittles?

jim5301 said...

speaking of ice - overtime win in hockey by USA. First gold since 1980!

Bob Boyd said...

America defeats Chicom puppet state! Yay!

Narr said...

Don't bring a gas can to a gunfight.

Peachy said...

desperate soviet leftists = the democrats broken army of losers.

tommyesq said...

overtime win in hockey by USA.

Look for the post-game interview with Hughes, who scored the Golden Goal - very pro-America, love for the country, etc. - a nice touch to end the Olympics after the parade of figure-skating prima donnas who couldn't wait to shit on the USA.

Anthony said...

Suck it, Canuckistan!

ronetc said...

"Unauthorized entry into the secure perimeter" . . . so just how secure was said perimeter?

MikeD said...

A "gas can" and a shotgun. Said shotgun was raised and pointed at SS agents when he was shot.

Peachy said...

the local leftists will never denounce this, as they hope the assassin is successful. also the local leftists will blame a Trump supporter - without any evidence other than Kimmel's wife's rage fueled lies.

Another Democrat Storm Trooper

Iman said...

Crazed, leftwing shitbirds doing what they do best… another day ending in “y”.

jim5301 said...

tommyesq - It really is possible to be pro-America and anti-Trump. Give me a break.

Peachy said...

jim5301 - are you hoping all your Trump assassins are successful?

tommyesq - It really is possible to be pro-America and anti-Trump. Give me a break.

jim, I believe that can be true. Unfortunately, I've encountered no true-believing Leftists who believe the converse. here's what one, a Lutheran minister posted recently on Facebook:
Post 1: "If you work for ICE, you are a horrible person. If you don't actively oppose ICE, if you feel what it is doing and how it is doing it is even remotely patriotic or heroic, you also are a horrible person."

Post 2: "When will MAGAts wake up and see they are defending a fascist Nazi regime, a regime that doesn't care about them at all?"

jim5301 said...

That's a pretty stupid question Peachy. The answer would be no. When Biden was president were you rooting for his assasination?

jim5301 said...

Let me add - we're you rooting for the assasin of Melissa and Mark Hoffman in Minnesota?

jim5301 said...

Wilbur - if you take out the word Nazi I agree with Post 2. So I guess I'm anti-America in your book.

narciso said...

That takes an extraordinary amount of category error

Bob Boyd said...

At least nobody was carrying a handbag.

wendybar said...

Keep spewing the hate and violence lefties. Your mentally ill are getting more restless, and if you get lucky,, and get what you want, one of your mental ilk will succeed. All the blood you see on the streets of America are because of the left and their hate.

These attacks and attempts on President Trump's life and Mar-A-Logo are directly linked to the Democrat Party with their unhinged hatefilled threats against Trump and MAGA, and the legacy media.

It's been happening for far too long and it's unacceptable that nothing has been done about any of it.

The excuses are more unacceptable!

Start holding these commie Marxist scumbag Seditious Democrats accountable by any means necessary.

We're sick and tired of this BS!

How much can we bet that it was another "sexual minority" aka Tranny? These mentally ill, violent weirdos have been weaponized by the Left. Somebody needs to look into whats going on with all these assassians and school shooters. Its getting very weird. Did anyone try to kill Biden?

Vance said...

Jim, I find it awfully curious how fast the Hoffman murders disappeared after the perp said Governor Walz told him to do it, and people noticed that Hoffman was the only Democrat to vote against enabling Somali fraud. That story just vanished overnight after that, like all stories that hurt Democrats vanish.....

narciso said...

Curious that, isnt it, just the bureau chief cheatham was the head of cheneys security detail even andrew gross wouldnt come with such a plot

Yancey Ward said...

"Its getting very weird. Did anyone try to kill Biden?"

Biden was already dead.

Clyde said...

There's sure been a whole lot of FAFO lately.

n.n said...

Somali fraud. That story just vanished overnight after that, like all stories that hurt Democrats vanish.....

Aborted, then sequestered. Planned Propagandahood.

donald said...

I wouldn’t complain about a Jim5301 assassination quite frankly.

Jim at said...

When Biden was president were you rooting for his assasination?

Quite obviously no ... because nobody on our side was trying to kill him.

See the difference?

Sweetie said...

It's just how Democrats debate now.

gadfly said...

Many assassination attempts have occurred lately, most of which were carried out by CBP and ICE agents and the Department of War at the behest of the Trump administration. That differs from our celebrity, school and church assassination attempts, none of which had anything to do with one another.

So not Antifa?

"The armed man shot and killed by Secret Service agents outside President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago property Sunday had grown increasingly obsessed with the Epstein files and was also a vocal supporter of Trump … TMZ has learned."
