And dont forget we dont let them and we cant let them use weapons. We cant, Trump said. Other countries do. We cant. I would never do that. But how do you stop these people? You cant. Theres
Before Trump could finish his thought, a woman in the audience yelled out. While it was unclear exactly what she said during television coverage of the event, numerous eyewitnesses reported she said, Shoot them!
Trump apparently found the suggestion amusing. He gestured at the person who yelled and said, Thats only in the Panhandle, you can get away with that statement. Only in the Panhandle!

(17,305 posts)but The Rolling Stones have warned that imbecile to stop using their music at his events. That's how "tone deaf" he is. He doesn't give a shit. I hope they successfully sue his ass.

"In most uses, shill refers to someone who purposely gives onlookers, participants or "marks" the impression of an enthusiastic customer independent of the seller, marketer or con artist, for whom they are secretly working. The person or group in league with the shill relies on crowd psychology to encourage other onlookers or audience members to do business with the seller or accept the ideas they are promoting. Shills may be employed by salespeople and professional marketing campaigns. Plant and stooge more commonly refer to a person who is secretly in league with another person or outside organization while pretending to be neutral or a part of the organization in which they are planted, such as a magician's audience, a political party, or an intelligence organization (see double agent)."
