Who asked the transgender shooting question? Any video of that? Is that a coincidence that as this question was asked, the shooter took his shot?

approx 200 yards from where CK was sitting.

Gotta stop acting like this shot required some professional skills. It was actually about 125 yards, unobstructed and Charlie was sitting in a chair. The security was probably crap so he likely had plenty of time to set up and wait for a good shot.

Pro hit my arse. Every other male in any SEC stadium on a Saturday can make that shot.

If it was 200 yards and he didn’t take Charlie’s skull off then it wasn’t a pro hit.

A pro would use a 6.5 or a 7.62 round and at 200 yards wouldn’t have missed his mark by 6”

FBI: “We’ve had this guy on our radar for awhile”.

200 yds. Minimal obstruction, elevated position....throw on an even halfway decent scope, you wouldn't have to be a marksman with military training to hit the target....plus in this case the target was stationary. I'm guessing windage was minimal?

It’s not the shot.

It’s the escape.

He was hit basically upper center mass and the exit wound was his neck.

It wasn’t a hard shot. Even at 200 yards, modern cartridges don’t drop that much when zero’d at 100.

I’m incapable of putting together thoughts as all I think about is his young family.

Escape from what? Again, there was likely 3 mall cops there. Its not like the Presidents detail and half of the local sheriff department were around.

Have you seen the video? It was chaos after, people running everywhere.

Does not have to be a pro.

Any kid who plays video games with access to a weapon could figure this out.

Video games these days teach strategy and tactics.

The shot is the least remarkable thing about this incident. It everything that led up to the shot and the ability to flee from the scene undetected as of now.

Again. Early assessment. Solomon was the first to break the news of CK passing. He’s got legit sources. Just relaying what he’s reporting.

The video I saw the old guy was yelling shoot me, shoot me…

A lot of deer hunters can do that but most the population can't.

Correct. The shooter also had to know where Kirk was going to set up, the best option to fire the shot from and then how to gain access to the roof. It may not have been a "professional" shooter, but this was definitely a professional job.

Ok, I stand correct. Either way, I think he's in on it, to help the real shooter time to escape.

I’m starting to believe the pro hit theory.
Considering that’s law-enforcement current theory, after they already arrested the wrong person.

There are a lot of people who benefit from perpetuating anger and divisiveness within our country.

I messed it up trying to make some changes for something a little new

I’m obviously not the right person for that job. Thanks
