15. What's remarkable is that they occur at all.

With the high levels of security everywhere in public spaces like malls, movie theaters, and stores it seems that we're being fed bad information. OTOH if these occurrences are actually happening then perhaps it will dawn on our great leaders to increase the radius of their perimeter.
What I'm saying is that with these repeated close call incidents and so called assassination attempts someone in authority is incompetent. Like an entire administration.
