    Yeah, I saw the video and could have told everyone this. I mean, I get why they have to do it, but I hate that I now live in the world where this is at all questioned.

    The only reason there’s any contention about it broadly is because MAGA has brainwashed themselves to “not look up” and not even view the video for fear they will actually see the asteroid approaching.

    Go post the shooting on conservative sites without editorial and see how fast you get banned. (No, really do this, you all should have burner accounts on right-wing social media platforms, do something fucking useful with your keyboard time.)

      You and the headline missed that she was shot in the left side of the head and went out the right side. Could only have come from the side of the vehicle where the shooter couldn’t have been in any danger.

        Exactly. The article doesn’t say the first two shots were from the front, but they weren’t necessarily life-threatening even if they were. The final shot came when the shooter was out of the way and no longer had any reason to fear for his life and, therefore, had no reason to fire a third time.

        I don’t think there’s any contention here, I saw her get shot, I know a bullet from a particular “agent” went into her head.

          The idiot who was “in danger” went from shooting through the windshield to shooting through the side window
