I'm not saying this was a definitive set up for an assassination 
attempt. I am saying that it's location, line of site, distance, not 
being a hunting ground, recent attempts on Trump's life, etc. all 
warrant a serious look and should not be dismissed as lightly as you are 
doing.

It has been there for a couple of months, apparently. It's up in a tree 
with a direct sight line to the tarmac. Coincidence? Maybe. Maybe not. 
Let's see what the investigation uncovers.

Where are you getting this 1000m+ idea from? Estimates indicate the 
stand was approximately 200 yards (about 183 meters or 600 feet) from 
the Air Force One exit stairs and tarmac zone. That's a gimme putt for 
even a half decent shooter.
