Yeah I totally agree with this theory and have from the outset. By disturbing Crooks that cop changed what could have been a calm, focused, unhurried shot from a prepared stance, to a hasty shot from a hasty stance by a shooter who was probably very nervous.

I was also very annoyed at people who tried to blame these two guys. What was he supposed to do exactly as he faced a rifle at point blank range with no hands free? He did the right thing - dropped to the floor and called it into the radio net urgently with as much detail as possible. The guy is the hero of the hour.

I heard about that, and the local chief of police defended him for getting down from the roof instead of getting shot. But NOWHERE did I hear that he reported this until after Trump was shot.

He should have gotten down and started hollering "GUN!" or "SHOOTER ON THIS ROOF!" as loudly as possible! He didn't.
