Actually, from what I've read in books, William McKinley was indeed being guarded by his usual Secret Service agent, George Foster, as well as two additional ones. There were also Buffalo police and detectives stationed at the Temple of Music. In fact, immediately after being slammed to the ground by a crowd member named James Parker (preventing the assassin from firing again), the guards and crowd proceeded to nearly beat Czolgosz to death. McKinley himself had to call them off, allegedly saying, "Go easy on him, boys."
They could have found the bullet with the new x-ray machine at the fair but the doctors thought it would do more harm than good. X-ray was only invented in 1895 so it was still relatively new and un-tested technology. Later Edison insisted that they x-ray the president and even had a brand new Edison x-ray machine sent to Buffalo but in his haste a vital part, for the device was not shipped. So they ended up not using it and then of course McKinley died.
It's so important to know our history. So evident in events taking place today. Only in the last year or so are members of the Black community learning of a history covered up since 1963. Unless you lived then you would not know MLKJr was Republican. You also would not know LBJ had carried out the beginning of what we are dealing with today. The victim dependent community voting being bought by Democrats by providing a plantation of government programs to contain and control them. Getting out of the hood is getting off that plantation. People are getting free and independent for the forst time in their lives and three generations from that time. Even facts the KKK being Democrat run and Republicans being the abolishnists fighting to free slaves was lost. A story of all that history should be highlighted. We need to come clean to have clarity in the present.
Please stop. What does that have to do with this video's subject? Besides, they weren't fighting for freedom of slaves, it was about economics and how much control the government should have.
