It is now proven almost beyond the shadow of a doubt that Charlie Kirk was not wearing any body armor. The attending sheriff, Erika Kirk, dozens of photographs showing the outline of his pectoral muscles and nipples, and front row witness statements all concur that he was just wearing a t-shirt.
The idea that he was wearing body armor was based on a few frames of Charlie's t-shirt jerking up, and a good faith attempt to make the FBI story make sense. But the most credible proponent of that theory, Paramount Tactical, admitted (before statements from Erika Kirk etc) that there was already a "90% chance Charlie wasn't wearing body armor."
For their part, Turning Point USA's version of the story, and the FBI's, do not mention body armor at all. The official version of the story is that the bullet didn't exit and was trapped under the skin of Charlie's back.
So what are we left with? The officially blamed weapon is a Mauser 98 firing a 30-06 round over less than 200 yards. A typical 30-06 round has a muzzle energy of 2,500-3,000 ft-lbs. That's enough to shoot through solid buckets of ice, cow bones, steel plate, and bear skulls. Conclusion: there is no way that a 30-06 round shot Charlie in the neck and did not exit.
The official story is provably false. So what really happened?
edit: Paramount also threw cold water on the idea of a frangible 30-06 round.
The problem is the FBI says he was shot with a Mauser 98, and he wasn't. Killed with a pistol round, maybe. Not a full-sized rifle cartridge.
The gun is made up, the text messages are made up, and Tyler Robinson was probably entrapped but wasn't even the shooter.
You left out: the camera clearly shows the location that the shooter was at, but for some reason (to my knowledge), no video has been released showing him setting up, taking the shot, or breaking down the rifle before he ran.
And then he presumably reassembled the rifle before ditching it.
None of that makes sense.
It doesn’t make sense because, just like the attempted Trump assassination, it’s all LIES.
Okay so but the sum total of your evidence of that is 'well that's weird'. Weird stuff happens.
No, my evidence is "that's physically impossible." And I know you don't believe in miracles considering your stated beliefs here, not that this was a miracle by anyone's beliefs.
Charlie didn't have a magic neck. Abracadabra with that garbage
Don't know how you can say it's "physically impossible" since it seems to have happened. Improbable, sure, certainly not impossible.
Let me put it this way, what is it that you want the explanation to be? Israeli ninja smuggled a phone-gun in and shot him at close range without anybody noticing anything and also convinced a troony to be up on the roof at the time with a working gun but not fire and then hacked into his phone to send some weird text messages? What explanation would be satisfying.
Oh yeah, so a human neck can contain 2,500 ft-lbs of energy without deformation? Keep in mind that if the bullet doesn't exit, the full 2,500 ft-lbs is absorbed, which would blow the tissue up like an exploding water balloon. I guess Charlie really was Kal-El Jr.
Pistol round or similar from the right side to the left by an unknown shooter. Exit wound on the left.
What is the evidence that makes that so unlikely? That a dark figure was caught running on a roof? That no gun was ever videotaped by any of the thousands of cameras on campus? That the FBI took a picture of a Mauser in a cardboard box (??) that they said was wrapped in a black towel? That the text messages were obviously written by a law enforcement agent in his 50s?
So you're assuming it happened the way you were told it happened, even though the evidence suggests otherwise?
Damn I guess you're right, the authority man said that's what happened so that's the end of it.
