Not seen it so just an assumption, it depends on the angle of the shot and that is believed to be from a rooftop so unlikely as well as whether he had a plate or soft vest? So unlikely in all respects unless it ricocheted in front, but again unlikely. 

 

I watched a breakdown video last night.

 

It pointed out a number of points.  He wasn't wearing a chest plate.  It certainly looks like something under his shirt.  But earlier in the clip you can see his nipples through his t-shirt.  I don't thing they have nipples on body armour.

 

The clip also pointed out that the suspected shooting spot from 200m away was ontop of a multi story carpark.  The campus was a mile from the highway and to the south there was an airport approx 5 miles away.  The shooter could technically have been on the free way by the time they started looking for the shooter.  and in the air a short time after that.

 

The guy doing the breakdown was an ex green beret.  No conclusion it was an organised hit but if it was the planning and exfil (potentially) was quite easy to work out.

I admire your faith in humanity Mark Bolam but in reality no we aren’t.
A quite frankly unbelievable level of hypocrisy from the very two people who showed their true colours when the news broke of the death of a man whom they disagreed with politically. Or in one liars case a man he claimed to have not heard of until an “hour before”  yet still managed to come to the judgement he posted below. 
 

Mark J’s words. 

He was a prick, stirred up a load of trouble and paid for it.

You reap what you sow. 
Karma always collects. 

That post was liked instantly by the utter hypocrite Steven P. 

Freedom of speech is dead.

I didn't know the bloke, did a quick search on him, realised he was the one that south park had been mocking, came to the conclusion he was a bit of a prick, who I wouldn't have over for dinner.

I have made no speculation as to who shot him. He clearly has stirred up some trouble for someone to go to the effort of executing him. 

Sorry if I have offended anyone who knew him.

I doubt that body armour would have nipples either, however the authorities have released footage of the suspect and he was on a lower building around 140m away with some sort of atrium roof, they have some smudged prints from when he climbed over the edge of the building and a shoe imprint from his converse trainers and it sounds like they have the firearm as he left it in some wooded area close by. Some good evidence along with photos of him so I would suspect that they will be close to apprehending him thankfully.

Karma doesn’t “always collect”

It doesn’t exist, it’s as real as the tooth fairy.

I don't watch south park but I can't imagine its a balanced place to base your opinion of anyone on.

 

Everyone has a political view, but to invite anyone to come and debate that with you in front of 1000's of people rather than just air it behind a keyboard is something very very few people would have the courage to do. 

 

'He was never flustered, he never had to raise his voice to be heard or shout over someone. He had a quiet determination to spread his message while giving others the opportunity to come and counter his views with their own and talk about it.  He'd often quieten the crowd who heckled the person at the mike even though they had opposing opinion to him, acting to make sure he didn’t promote ridicule or humiliation, but a genuine will to try and understand their point of view.  He was silenced by someone who didn't have the intelligence to stand up and debate him' (this paragraph I copied from another post, but think its so true).

 

Its certainly a sad day for America. Very enlightening to watch his opinions on Great Britain, this is someone who didn't go to university, travelling halfway across the world to Oxford University to debate, and it seems understanding the underlying issues of Britain today better than those in power (on both sides);

America is a dangerous place - ask John Lennon

Charlie Kirk was very aligned with white republican Christians and that's OK. 

But it doesn't mean his views were correct or the most valid.

On religion

There is no separation of church and state. It’s a fabrication, it’s a fiction, it’s not in the constitution. It’s made up by secular humanists.

you talk as though people who don't this in the accepted way are spiteful or just plain wrong.

Well it has standards, which have made it what it is, so hence it sticks to.  Who did he have to blame for that?

Yes Kirk was very aligned with Christians, (I think he said himself that colour doesn't come into it though).  America through being a Christian country quickly became the greatest country in the world, Trump is 'making America great again' by bringing it back to the values which made it great in the first place, which they'd got away from during Biden presidency.  Popular? No not always.   Best for America? Yes it seems so, which is his job as president.
