the look of surprise on the would-be assain’s face when the gun doesnt fire is just awesome i love that the old guy comes back and starts kicking him in the head. ---

It wasn’t a real gun. They’re calling it a “gas pistol” that was loaded with tear gas and “noise making bullets” so they’re not sure if he was trying to kill the guy with a point blank shot from a non-lethal gun or it was a stunt. Either way it’s funny that there was practically no security. The politician had to disarm him, then everyone else just started kicking the crap out of him. Amateurs. ---

Yeah Bulgarians dont mess around… Would love to see what they did to him once in custody. I bet this guy will be pissing blood for a very long time. ---

someone showed me this video without an explanation and it looked like the guy just didnt load the gun or had the safety on. apparently it wasnt even a real gun, just a gas-powered pellet gun and this was just a prank? ---

Id put some weight on it being a failed attempt… News outlets in these Eastern European countries are still heavily controlled by politics and appearing weak is something believed to be a huge no no by many parties. Theres a good chance the story got manipulated. Seinfeld Reference just because. [https://youtu.be/fzLtF\_PxbYw](https://youtu.be/fzLtF_PxbYw) ---

It wasn’t a gunpowder and bullets gun, so now it’s up for debate if he was trying to kill him with a pellet to the face at point blank range or if it was just a prank. ---

It wasn’t meant to kill him.
