      At first I thought that had nothing to do with anything… then it zoomed out and showed their positions were within feet of Kirk. I can’t say for sure that this was an inside job, but those movements definitely indicate some kind of coordination was used - so it’s now believable this wasn’t a lone gunman.

          The real problem here is that everyone feels they have an interest in the investigation going one way or another. So they ignore evidence that is right in front of their eyes. And because everything is so disorganized, there is no clear or coherent narrative that can be proven or disproven which just leads to more speculation and confusion.

          Like that link you showed had a bunch of links to evidence of one kind or another. It claimed the shooter didn’t have a rifle with him in photos - but the link used to back up that claim clearly showed him running off the roof while carrying a soft long gun bag.

            clearly showed him running off the roof while carrying a soft long gun bag.

            Clearly? Bc 2 days ago I actually made a joke about how the images from that video were so blurry it reminded me of bigfoot footage.

            There is no need to believe anything you don’t feel is convincing.

            Just keep in mind, people that were in those files the Democrats wanted released the day Kirk was killed, are now trying to call for global violence against the left in retaliation for somehow causing Kirk’s death.

            'The Left is the party of murder’: Elon Musk calls for Republicans to ‘fight’ after Charlie Kirk killing

            Seems kinda odd that their base is trying to ask questions about stuff that definitely seems weird to me too, and instead of jumping on what you’re saying is “tin foil hat Alex Jones conspiracy train” like they normally would, they’re out on a world tour desperately trying to instigate a war of right vs. left.

      It’s a bunch of freeze frames and dubious links to military hand gestures that don’t make sense in this context and also don’t exactly match what either of them are doing – not to mention, is that the Google AI summary they’re using for definitions?

      I can’t tell if this is a meme

        You’re ignoring the part at the end that just shows the guy make a signal right as Kirk speaks his final words.

        The last 10ish seconds of that clip are what’s important

        I can’t confirm anything about what those signals mean, if anything. I can confirm with zero knowledge of military signals, the two guys standing about a foot behind Charlie Kirk when he was murdered were acting weird and making odd/awkward gestures just before he was shot.

          He’s sitting completely still in one spot. Why do we need two beefy secret operatives to tell this guy to shoot? To what end? It isn’t standing to scrutiny for me

            I just said I have no idea what they were doing. It is just very strange the guy in black made such an odd gesture as Kirk spoke his last words and the moment before the gun went off.

              It’s the law of large numbers. There were a lot of people in that crowd, and a lot of cameras. People make weird movement and have weird tics all the time. It’s statistically impossible for there to not be at least a few people who made some strange move right then and there.

              I think spreading baseless conspiracy in the wake of a shooting is typical right wing grifter fare, a la Alex Jones. I’d just like to caution everyone to view these with a very critical eye
