I thing the shooter was a groyper who is upset about the Epstein reversal. Sorry SRC people, having trouble seeing a leftist one-shotting the neck from 250 yards away.
But yeah this will be used as a pretext but if not this there would have been other pretexts, Like how he used big balls getting pantsed by a girl to declare marshall law in DC.

Leftist gun enjoyer reporting in - 250 yards is achievable for most people if you practice, depending on your setup. Even a mid grade rifle’s mechanical accuracy can ‘group’ a 9” circle at that range, throw a zoom optical scope on top and done.
Mid to long range shooting is a trifecta of shooter skill, knowledge of environment conditions, and quality of equipment. The further the distance, the more of each you need. That kind of range and precision was viable with basically every bolt action deer gun in America, and most hunters using them tbh.

Yeah but most SRC types have a hardon for antique Soviet garbage like SKS. “If it was good enough for the NVA it’s good enough for me.”
Also it can be really hard to find a 200+ yard range in most blue states while local hillbillies in Utah would have now trouble finding a place to plink around at 400 yards just for fun.

Are we being false flagged?
Whether or not that is the case, I bet a lot of the fascists in and around the white house creamed their pants yesterday because of the opportunity this no doubt presents to them.

if it’s a false flag it’s to distract from the epstein shit,not to have an excuse for more violence

I would not put it past Donny Bonespurs to have Kirk assassinated as either a distraction or to use as a pretext for more power grabs.
I’ll admit it’s a little tin foil hatty but considering he views other people as completely disposable, I don’t think it’s that far fetched.

Nah that just doesn't make sense. He doesn't need any pretexts because he's already getting everything he demands and more handed to him on a silver platter at every opportunity, and if he wanted one anyway he'd just make it up and bullshit everyone like his lot always does
