Major Breach as UK Security Allowed Protesting Paraglider to Fly Within Yards of Trump...
Gateway Pundit ^ | July 14, 2018 | Kristinn Taylor (our own Kristinn)

This was an appalling security breach that could have resulted in dozens killed and wounded–including President Trump.

Friday night soon after Trump arrived at his Trump Turnberry golf club in Scotland, a Greenpeace protester flying a motored paraglider with a large anti-Trump banner hanging below flew within yards overhead of Trump who was outside receiving guests, forcing him to race inside with his Secret Service detail.

Inexplicably, first U.K. security on the perimeter and then U.S. security on top and around the building allowed the paraglider to fly unmolested over Trump, members of his national security team, senior administration officials and dozens of guests assembled outside, and the building–and then allowed the flyer to escape!

I know, just tongue in cheek attempt at humor, kahn hates the President enough to do it. His balloon stunt failed so why not a glider.

This is no small incident. That flyer could have been wearing an explosive belt.

You have to shoot to kill when an unidentified individual is flying right at you. You had SS snipers on the roof of the golf club & they watched this guy fly in & did nothing!

Can the SS and replace the presidents security force with U.S. Marine Vets who have been under fire and can accurately and irrevocably assess imminent danger.

Well we cant do that. Trump’s mother Mary-Anne Macleod was born and bred in Scotland. It wasn’t until she was 18 before she moved to America.

Dry run?
************
Whether this particular Leftist considered it a dry run, I don’t know. But it certainly serves de facto as a dry run for every evil entity that would desire to harm/kill our President Trump. They now KNOW there’s a security weakness that they can exploit!

Trump should have called Teresa may up immediately and thanked her for her diligence. Then announce he is planning a unplanned visit/news conference to see Tommy Robinson. After all one good turn deserves another. Then sit back and watch her turn 20 shades of pale.

I was so wrong.

When I heard they impossibly and unbelievably elected a Muslim to be mayor, I assumed he was a mild mannered and gentle phony type.

Then I saw the first ugly gnarled expression with his fist clenched toward the camera and knew he was not.

I can believe he is capable of anything against the American infidels. Don’t turn your back on him.

Sure is. They had no idea if that clown had any kind of weapons, poison or WHAT his intent was. He should have been shot out of the sky the minute he got anywhere NEAR our President and everyone who DIDN’T shoot him out the sky deserves to be fired YESTERDAY.

Scotland is even more radical leftist and America hating than England. And that’s saying something.

The Scots are loud, obnoxious Globalists and radical Socialists.
