Secret Service agent shoots himself.

[gypsyman]

 Not a lot of details, but in the New American News websight, just read where a Secret Service agent, shot himself today, handling his firearm. There was one breastfeeding her baby at one of the shootings when Trump was shot at. What the hell, the Keystone Kops in the silent movies were better than this!!

Not surprised at all
This is what happens when you
you don't hire by experience and
merit, and have to hire by quota.
Schools are as bad. The talented
and gifted used to be allowed to
advance and flourish. Now all
are held to the same level regardless
of intellect or ability. Socialism
does that. It makes large batches
of drones where the best and the
brightest are knocked down to the
level of the lazy and thick headed.
Why would anyone want to try harder
if the next guy is allowed to skate
and fumble his way through  ?
No incentive for excellence

The trickle down of DEI policies.

Yes. The slow agonizing death of the country

  Can't find it right now, but I recently posted a photo of a line several female secret service agents posing while holding their guns.  Each had their 
  ndex finger firmly planted upon the trigger..

Yeah, not many qualifications are required anymore for government jobs. Even true among many private sector jobs.  Many business owners anymore will accept a body that shows up for work, and a non drug addict.

IMO Women should not be regular patrol police officers, or serve in the military in a combative roll. PERIOD! In todays military and police work many men don't have what it takes to serve. The Army  I served in the early 60's did just that. If you couldn't mentally or physically do what you were required to do, you were booted. I wouldn't want to serve today or be be a policeman with a female for a backup. They have lowered the standards to become one, and the public and officers have suffered because of it. The women on Trumps detail were not fit for the job, and the leaders knew it.

They probably knew a hell of a lot more than we will ever know.

Women are smaller and not as strong as men.  Yeah, there might be one big strong woman in 100 or 200, but men should fight wars and be SS agents on the front lines.  It is a biological fact.  A gun is an equalizer, but not hand to hand fighting if that is what it takes.

Women are always adverse to violence. The woman on Trump's Secret Service detail, at the rally where he was shot, was at first ducking for cover rather than covering president Trump. She remained in a crouched position throughout most of that detail.

I don't fault her. I fault the Secret Service for its woke DEI hire requirements from the White House.

She's a big part of the problem. If she's reasonably intelligent, she knows she isn't qualified to do the job. They are more than likely part of the woke crowd themselves. I fault her as well. JMO.

The woman has to eat and pay bills. She got a job at Secret Service, through a DEI hire (maybe). She's supposed to be trained, but her muscle memory is still averse to violence because she's a woman. .

I think over the years the perception was that secret service men were well trained tough guys that could defeat any threat. I used to have that perception, but now nothing could be further from the truth. Now its like they resemble a bunch of keystone cops.
