Is it? The Democrats controlled the House, Senate, Whitehouse and SCOTUS during the 1960's. If they wanted change, they could have made it then. They've also controlled both the House and Senate more recently when SCOTUS was split 4-4 when they had a vacancy.

So Dems have had ample opportunities to pass federal laws on gun control.

Nah, it’s mot laws that need to change, it’s an amendment to the constitution. Which is possible, but a much higher bar to clear.

Not even a professional sniper is hitting just his ear from that angle. But Diaper Donny claims it "pierced his ear"... but don't take any photos!

If it had "pierced" his ear, as you say the damage would have been JFK-like. Unless it's another "magic bullet", like Dallas!
im loath to feed the conspiracy machine .... but when ive nicked the ear it was a hell of a job to stop the blood flow - the volume of blood on bone spurs didnt match my experience - maybe hes a good clotter lol

[edit] an independent medical assessment of the wound would help address some unknowns here
 
So you don't think its worth mentioning that the most elite bodyguards now include women? Again I ask, is that a new thing or has it always been like that? Why don't you answer the question
34% women, 66% male. First woman joined SS was in 1974.

Probably because he was an insane evil murderous dictator? You think his beautiful female bodyguards were chosen for their protection abilities 😂 you have the wildest takes sometimes
In 2001, Dr Seham Sergewa, a Libyan psychologist, started investigating the process of selection of the Revolutionary Guards. Only eight women stepped forward due to the fear of testifying. They are afraid of getting killed by fundamentalists and sometimes family members.

Even though many women defined Gaddafi as the women emancipator, after his death, women came forward and accused the Libyan leader of rape and abuse.

Many women stated that they were either blackmailed to join the unit or were asked sexual favours in order to be selected. They testified that Gaddafi and some other members of the leader’s power circle r*ped them.

In the 1960's there were 90 million firearms in the USA (and a population of 180 million people).

Most of those firearms were handguns (mainly revolvers), shotguns and hunting rifles. The 'AR-15' style of semi auto 'assault rifle' had only just been invented by Eugene Stoner and was introduced to the US Military in the late 60's as the M-16.

Currently there are 400 million firearms in the USA (from a population of 330 million people).

The population of the USA has doubled, but the number of guns has increased 4 fold.

AR-15 style semi automatic weapons account for 1/4 of gun purchases:

The Gun problem in 1960 is nothing compared to the Gun problem in 2024 and to suggest they are comparable is disingenuous at best.
 
Let me guess, you think only white males are the best candidates?
The 'diversity hire' crap is coming straight from Sky News.

Sky News is just parroting an ongoing racist and misogynist debate in the US about the Secret Service’s focus on 'diversity hires' ( the give away is the use of that particular term ) under the leadership of Director Kimberly Cheatle (also not a male).

When the real issue here for the Secret Service is not brawn and gender related but the lack of intelligence and attention to detail. Like looking at a basic map of the rally location and realising that the roof of a big building adjacent to the site with an overview of the stage area should have been included in their security perimeter checks and observations.
