    Please note that NSFW/NSFL videos must be labeled as such or they will be deleted

    Edit: also keep in mind that initial information in these situations can often be inaccurate. Trusted outlets have conflicting reports about whether a suspect has been detained.

    Edit 2: the campus has officially stated they release the initial subject. Donald Trump has stated Charlie Kirk is dead.

    1. They immediately detained people who confronted Charlie at the event (as they were more democratic), but obviously were not the shooter.

    2. The FBI says there is a massive manhunt for the shooter and are asking for any help they can get.

    3. The Right IMMEDIATELY blamed democrats and the “radical left” are calling for our murders and a civil war, without any scrap of evidence to prove their claims.

    4. The shooter was a ghost, some videos show a black figure on a roof 142 yards from the tent, well blended in and in all black. There is also video of the shooter running off the roof immediately after the shooting and got lost in the chaos. It’s been over 18 hours and no suspect has been caught.

    5. Just before this event, Charlie voiced concerns over other right wing conservatives not aligning with his ideals and voicing concern over Israel. He was wearing body amour at this event and the shooter knew it. Extra security was brought in for this event.

    The most logical explanations for this shooting would be:

    1. Another right wing radical taking out a voice they feel is hurting their cause for the movement and to cause chaos in the political spectrum.

    2. A political assassination carried out by Donald Trump and his team to start a war with democrats and start a real war within on anyone that doesn’t agree with them. AKA False Flag.

    It’s just too clean a getaway and too good of a shot for any other explanation considering the angle of the shot, the elevation change, the crowd, and the heightened security.

    I get the strong feeling that this shooting was done by a professional.

    • 1 single shot from over two hundred yards away
    • shooter escapes like a ghost, and it doesn’t seem like the police have found any evidence he was even there.
    • a separate person seemingly providing a distraction so the shooter can get away and the police just let him go.

    Makes me wonder a few things

    • was this a false flag? (seems most likely) - especially when you consider the context of trump wanting to send military into US cities and the Republicans voting against releasing the epstein docs on the same day. This shooting was an absolutely fantastic distraction and could easily be used by trump to promote his usage of military against US cities.
    • was this sponsored by someone
    • was this another country?
    • if the shooter escaped so easily, how likely is it that he does this again somewhere else?
