>> is not substantiated on any video

Jesus, not this again.

The first video to go public (with the 4 or more warnings clearly audible in it), was released before the High definition clip of the shooter. More than one Conservative who reckons no warning was given has been given that video link but since the higher definition footage with poor audio surfaces, they’ve obstinately refused to even admit the first video exist, and will not watch it even if the link is handed to them on a plate.

By contrast the shooter clip was recorded no more than 3 feet away from the longer recording. It is a much clearer picture but the audio quality is crap. Naturally, because it shows the shooter and cuts in after the warnings AND the sound quality is terrible, everyone loves it because it satisfies the confirmation bias.

Finally...

The guy who was stood next to Babbit as she climbed up (confirmed in both videos) was interviewed on the day and he, too, confirmed the warnings were given.

I posted all three videos a couple of days ago, you can see the same guy with the backpack in all three, he was the closest eyewitness to go public, and his assertion thar there were multiple warnings has been ignored.

Pretending something doesn’t exist despite concrete vidro evidence from multiple angles that it does exist, is the kind of “I see no ships” bullshit that the Left has used to deny the existence of election fraud. We call it out as Orwellian and we can see it is dishonest in the extreme.

I am not a fan of us deploying the same political correctness post-truth tactic as the totalitarian Room 101 reeducation. Even if the Left is using it effectively.

You don’t win moral arguments about conservatism, truth and honesty, by peddling a debunked lie as a politically correct bit of truth.

Thanks for your reply and I’m understanding your frustration. If I can ping you to my post #44, I posted a second video there, may be the one you’re referring to? I didn’t see it before and so...

I retract my statement in post #1 there were no warnings. The warning came less than 17 seconds before the weapon was fired.

from the longer video the exclamation ‘there’s a gun’ came at 1:58. Someone else repeats gun, gun but there is a lot of background yelling and window smashing happening. The firearm is discharged less than 15 seconds later.

gun, gun, gun would not give the listener a directional clue unless they could also see the finger being pointed. The backpack man standing next to Babbitt may have heard someone say ‘gun’ but backpack man didn’t move his position until Babbitt fell backwards. He appears at 2:09 to also looking thru the window. The man on the far side of Babbitt didn’t move his position, either. Did anyone know at that point who had the gun? Did the person next to Babbitt hearing something mean that Babbitt must also have heard?

sorry, forgot to add (I hate when I do that)..if you know of anyone that has a tape of the shooter himorherself stating, Stay Back, Stop, Stop or I’ll shoot, or uttering any type of preemptive warning himorherself, I’ll be happy to add it to this thread. Thanks.
