The Times-News, citing an associate of McGraws who asked not to be identified, confirmed Friday that the suspect in the Trump rally fracas is the same person from the July 2009 story.
I believe in the Scripture as a road map to a way of life, McGraw told the publication in 2009. The Bible tells us how to live, to survive.
The piece also noted that McGraw is a member of the Single Action Shooting Society (SASS) an international organization created to preserve and promote the sport of Cowboy Action Shooting, according to its website.
The group has affiliate clubs in all 50 states as well as in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Europe and South Africa. Members of the group are required to adopt a shooting alias appropriate to a character or profession of the late 19th century, a Hollywood western star, or an appropriate character from fiction hence, Quick Draw. Then, their costume is developed accordingly, the site noted.

We dont know who he is, but we know hes not acting like an American and cussing me and sticking his face in my head. If he wants it laid out, I laid it out. He added: He deserved it. The next time we see him, we might have to kill him. We dont know who he is. He might be with a terrorist organization.

They are not comfortable with socialism and many have made their money in the current, capitalistic system for good or ill. Many established their nest eggs under this system. Others less wealthy, live off their SS and fear what might be changed if they financial system as they know it is destroyed. If it looks in any way like we will be pushing a candidate on them that will upset their apple cart (remember, most of them are ill-informed about what is really going on in the economy. They only know what talk radio tells them) they will vote for what appears to be the so-called "establishment" candidate...and Trump may be the closet thing to it standing come November.
And we will have done it to ourselves. Remember, the polls that are being taken now about Trump vs. Hillary or Bernie have both of them still in the picture. If it is really comes down to Trump or Bernie...Trump wins, unless a whole lot of people change their minds come Nov.
