The security guards were facing and even surrounding the gunman. When he stretched out his arms, the eagle eyed bodyguards should’ve reacted immediately and put him down. Even the police officer’s unfazed reaction, seconds after while walking away is suspicious. I think it is an inside job.

The weirdest thing is the attacker attended meetings of Slovakian nationalist pro-russian paramilitary group, it's captured on a photo, but now the attackers statements are that he did it because of PM's anti liberal, and anti Ukraine politics. Btw this PM had to step down 6 years ago after he was connected to murder of Slovakian journalist Kuciak, but the Slovaks elected him again this year. Crazy country

By the end of this war, there will be at least a dozen "Great Mysteries of the Russo-NATO War" on History Channel in the 2050s. Episodes will include: "Who blew up Nordstream?" , "Who blew up Kakhovka dam?" , "Where did half of the $300B for Ukraine go?" , and now "Who shot the Slovakian Prime Minister?"...

Revelation 3:14-22 14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; 15 I know THY WORKS, that thou art NEITHER COLD NOR HOT: I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art LUKEWARM, and NEITHER COLD NOR HOT, I WILL SPUE THEE OUT OF MY MOUTH. 17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art WRETCHED , and MISERABLE , and POOR , and BLIND , and NAKED: 18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eye salve, that thou mayest see. 19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and REPENT. 20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. 21 To him that OVERCOMETH will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. 22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

Mussolini, Trujillo, Tombalbaye, Habyarimana were shot and then accused as well. Gadafi was beaten to death and I’m sure he was accused after. Of course these circumstances are not altogether the same, but authoritarian leaders around the world are attempting to limit people’s liberties and crush democracy. What this shooter did was wrong, but as for the Slovak Prime Minister-as the saying goes, “if you play with fire, you might get burned.” Vote blue in 2024 💙
