    It's taken me a while, but I've finally caught up with both this and the other thread. Someone, maybe in the other, watched a detailed analysis of the shooting (zoomed in) conducted by some kind of expert. I didn't watch it because I couldn't watch it from a queasy stomach standpoint, so I'll have to take that poster's word for it. Anyway, that poster is absolutely convinced Kirk was wearing titanium armor plating, which the bullet struck the edge of, ricocheted up into, and out of his neck.

    This brings up two obvious questions: 1) Why was he wearing armor? and 2) When did he start wearing armor?

    Yes, he (rightly) felt a threat. Had he been attacked before? Had he been receiving threats? From whom? We certainly know by now about the Groyper Wars. Did one of them ever physically threaten him before? Did Kirk's use of body armor coincide with those "wars?" Was he ever consistently harassed by other groups or individuals? If so, by whom? Has there been any other reporting on this?

    Well, shit, I had a lot more than just two questions.

    Can you link this video. Zooming in will introduce some artifacts with the image processing. It isn't clear to me based on what I have seen that he was wearing armor. The ricochet talk I saw looked to me to be his microphone clipped to his shirt.

    Did Ana do his usual drunk posting on a Friday night and basically imply a bunch of people who voted for HRC and Harris don’t think women can lead?

    The great thing is, you can actually just go back a page or two and read the whole exchange. 
     

    I did not imply anything other than an evangelical widow with the keys to a youth oriented political apparatus just told y'all she was going to war. Disregard at your own peril while you pat yourself on the back for running out two absolutely horrible female candidates for president and wondering why you keep losing elections.

    It is wild how these people who are so mad at political discourse can’t bring themselves to talk about the President.  They, specifically @Anastasis is more concerned about @Brisketexan than he is the PRESIDENT.   Insane 

    You seem unfortunately obsessed. I think that CK was right in his approach, engaging people directly when possible in his orbit. You and brisket have some deep regrets that you try to project onto others. It's ok and obvious.

    Also, just to recap: 

     

    All Democrat politicians and prominent figures immediately condemn the assassination, mourn Kirk, and urge everyone to do better and be better than this.

     

    The right's thought leaders immediately threaten retribution, war, and blood to ALL liberals before a single thing is known about the shooter. The completely unknown suspect becomes the literal personification of their political enemy. They jump on--and podcast--poorly sourced bullshit about Trans messaging. They gave Kirk military honors when the Minnesota lawmakers couldn't even get a phone call. Then they flailed around wildly when the suspect didn't fit the demographic they wanted to push their political payback agenda, appearing more likely to belong to an offshoot of one of their extreme alt-right cesspools than some blue hair. Topped off with the President, in plain words, stating that right wing violence is justifiable because the left must be stopped.

     

    "Oh you don't realize what you've unleashed. It's over in 2028."

    K.

    And how pathetic is it that you might be right?

    I honestly hope that you guys find your way out of the wilderness.
