“THIS IS WAR”: Some right-wing figures call for retribution following Kirk killing
“More people will be murdered if the Left isn’t crushed with the power of the state.”
You're viewing a single thread.
A single and fatal shot fired from the roof of a tall building 200 yards away while Kirk was under a canopy.
Despite strict lockdown procedures being a normal part of every college campus in 2025, the college officially evacuates the campus and the shooter just walks away.
The FBI quickly catches and releases the wrong suspect twice, and the only description they can offer is a man in dark clothing.
I have to admit this does have government conspiracy written all over it, but guess who currently controls the government?
Well, that side has been itching to start their civil war, and they're absolutely capable of sacrificing one of their own in order to obtain the license they think they need. Stranger things have happened.
Yeah that shot was masterful... conspiracy or not, this was a trained sniper.
Nooot really? I mean I'm not gonna lie I haven't really looked into the exact shooting here but 200 yards isn't really that crazy of a shot. If you assume the shooter was aiming for the neck it becomes a bit of a crazy shot, but I bet they were aiming for the head or body.
I'm sure many people who regularly go hunting could land a 200 yard shot. Heck I bet if you gave someone a few weeks of practice in a range they could consistently land 200 yard shots.
I say this from a place where I actually have fired guns before, including things like Ar-15s and an assortment of hunting rifles. They're just too easy to use.
Not sure it was just the fact they made the shot. They also got away.
For now sure. I doubt the killer will get away with it forever, and even if he does, I won't be shocked if someday we found out that it was just a hunter, who escaped into the local desert/woods/mountains whatever is near that town.
I have little faith in cops in general to do the right job, and with the amount of confusion, "We got him!" "No we didn't!" "We got him!" "Also not this guy!" on the scene it's not astounding that the shooter wasn't caught immediately, at least to me anyway.
Make no mistake someone is going down for this. I get the sense they have no idea who it was so they are just gonna pick someone up after awhile.
Yeah, this wouldn't surprise me.
I'd probably aim for the neck to be honest. Gives room above and below for error.
The shooter was very professional and shot him in the upper chest. The bullet ricocheted off his armor plate and into his neck. When the bullet hit the vest, it flattened and the jagged edges cut that main artery instantly and he bled out. The shooter was probably about 70-80 feet above Charlie, with 3,000 people around, a tent probably covering Charlies head, and had to flee the scene and blend in with the crowd running.
This sounds like government job all day long.
Could have been former military? They used a single shot and then eloped with no trace. Very clean and professional.
200 yards is anything but masterful, with even a low-end scope its an easy shot if you've spent more than a day or two practicing at a range. The armys qualifying target is a human silhouette set at 300 yards and they are using open iron sights with no magnification or aid whatsoever.
I'm a hunter. I shoot my guns maybe 3-4 times a year (couple days at the range and a couple actually hunting). Like, less than 100 rounds/year between four guns. So I'm not a great marksman, and definitely not a "trained sniper".
This would be an easy shot for me. At 150 yards, I can shoot a 1/2" grouping, and I have a low-end rifle and scope. You don't have to account for bullet drop or wind at that distance. Just aim and shoot.
Could have been luck. I agree with you, but I'm just saying that it also could have been luck.
