If this was some foreign shooter tasked with tearing our citizenry apart, they’ve done a fine job.
Honestly what blows my mind is they now have 4-5 people who actually filmed the shooter running and crawling around on the roof yet did not report it to 911 nor any law enforcement on the ground. I mean….really? In this day and age someone dressed in all black on a roof crawling around doesn’t set off alarms? People are fucking stupid.

Some interesting theories out there on this murder other than the usual knee jerk reaction that it was some libtard.
There are quite a few guys here, myself included, who know how difficult a 200 yard shot would
be under the immense pressure and stress of an assassination attempt. Someone didn’t just roll out of bed and decide to kill Kirk. You need practice, know how to set up your optics, etc.

This was planned and calculated and the shooter was most likely skilled and understood long range shooting. There was also only one shot so the trigger man had confidence in the shot.

Could a fruitcake have taken a flyer on a shot and got lucky? It’s possible but very unlikely.

It’s either a professional hit or some transgender who had military training and had an axe to grind.

Now I see comments from the media and social media saying he brought it on himself. These people are sick!

Yep.

Hell, it's even everyday lefties.

My wife is friends with some leftists and every single one of them basically said he was evil and had it coming.

This is the core of the left.

Everyone who disagrees with them is Hitler and therefore whatever you do to them is justified.

Yeah, I dunno about Patel.

His handling of the Epstein matter, this now.

He kinda seems like a bimbo.

I'm souring on Bondi too. Where are the results?

High powered, bolt action rifle, so again, not the kind that liberals overwhelmingly cite as the kind they want to ban, so the whole "gun control," argument is misplaced today unless you are one of the few who thinks Americans should have access to no kinds of guns at all.

Which these kind of, essentially HUNTING rifles, are usually the kind used for these hits because they are accurate and powerful, but slow.

Pretty curious where they got this "good video."

I'm kind of sympathetic to how hard it is to find this guy. Even today, it's not like there is great video of every square inch of property on every college campus, although I guess there should be security video somewhere of him getting up there.


Officials not releasing video of shooter, who appears to be college-aged

Rebecca Cohen

Mason said officials have good video of the shooter but are not releasing it at this time. Officials noted that the shooter appeared to be college-aged, but declined to give more details.

He said they are using technology to try to identify the individual. Mason said if that fails, officials will reach out to the public to help.

"But we are confident in our abilities right now, and we would like to move forward in a manner that keeps everyone safe and then moves this process appropriately," Mason said.

To the people who have been trying to equate this with, say, the Minnesota shooting, where did you see widespread footage of conservatives celebrating that killing?

It looked like a hunting shot from a bolt action rifle practically anyone can get their hands on. But you know if all assault weapons were banned this would never happen. And stuff.

We are down in Orlando on vacation, so I did not find out until my son showed me the video.

All I had to say then was it was extremely sad how a human being, like him or not, got murdered in front of his family.

And yes, this will change things dramatically. And not in a positive way.
