M’man Routh was, apparently, a gung-ho gun-happy nut. The BBC has a nice
write up at https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cq5eewvy3nlo

<snippo very interesting details of the local geography>

Note #4: Sheriff Ric is pissed. He’s taking this personally. It’s a good
thing for m’man Routh that it was the Martin County boys who caught him,
there might have been an unfortunate incident if Ric’s little helpers and
done it.

One headline I read yesterday had a Democrat saying that Trump should
have better protection than Biden.

After all, we can't have someone popping up and shooting Trump just
because he ticked everyone except his base in 2020 by deliberate
insult and has ticked off his base in 2024 by waffling on abortion.
IOW, that he has managed to tick off 99% [1] of the country is no
reason to make it easier to assassinate him while running for office
by having less than full-press security.

Sherrif Ric, after all, might be less pissed if Trump's security had
been better than it was. Although shooting at the shooter before he
shot even one round is certainly better than last time.

Of course, if, as a result of Springfield, one of his judges would
wake up and realize that leaving him free /does/ pose a danger to the
public, locking him up would probably be quite secure. As long as he
was kept out of the General Population, of course. And the Secret
Service (armed) provided 24/7 security.

[1] OK, maybe more like 85%, leaving the semi-fascist /hardcore/ MAGA
types loyal to Trump.
