To the left, what would actually shooting Babbitt not accomplish that faking it would?

...Sorry but this whole line of thought is nuts and very possibly started by folks who either are trying to make the right look crazy or who make a living out out of ginning up conspiracy theories.


Well, the theory (and keep in mind, as I stated, this is a thought experiment) would require Ashli Babbit to be one of the players. And that would make perfect sense for a staged event, because you wouldn't want a planned operation to be dependent on an uncontrolled variable like the reaction of the main target of the shooting. Heck, the main target might just refuse to get shot. You want control over EVERY aspect of the event.

As for the "conspiracy theory" accusations, my reply is this: people need to get out of 1980s thinking and adapt to the new reality. I don't know if any of this Capitol shooting stuff is real or not, but I accept that it is possible.

Anyone who has watched the video (or even just raw footage of the event rather than this version) MUST see some oddness to it. The video really just asks questions that I think any reasonable person would ask.

In a sane world, in a sane, moral USA such as the one I thought we were living in even 20 years ago, such a thing as a staged "insurrection" event as this one is suggested to be would have been the most absurd idea possible, akin to a faked moon landing.

But, I must remind people, that in the last year, we have had this happen:

1) TWO IMPEACHMENTS of the US President, both times on frivolous charges, and once AFTER he was already out of office.

2) A NEW VIRUS was released on the world, clearly from China, prompting the following reactions:
...a) the virus is nothing, it's racist to fear it or call it the Chineses virus, oh wait, it will kill 20 million Americans by summer
...b) masks don't work, don't wear them, oh wait, wear masks or we'll all die
...c) nobody is going to die, well maybe 20 million Americans will die by summer, well only 100,000 died by summer, well actually 90% of those deaths were only "with COVID" meaning there was another primary cause of death, like kidney failure, heart attack or gunshot wound.
...d) churches and bars must be closed immediately but strip clubs can stay open and leftist mass protests do not spread the virus
...e) all small businesses must shut down but large corporations can stay open
...myriad other nonsense that can't be listed in full here.

3) MASS RIOTS across the entire United Stated, with looting, burning, assault, murder, and the destruction of ENTIRE TOWNS like Kenosha, Wis for MONTHS, none of which were stopped by the authorities, and the perpetrators of which were refused prosecution by the local DAs even when arrested, all of which were easily definable as GENUINE INSURRECTION

4) MASSIVE ELECTION FRAUD occurred, with well-documented evidence, INCLUDING VIDEO of ballot stuffing and illegal exclusion of poll watchers, resulting in a numerically impossible presidential vote total. Any challenges to this vote fraud presented before the election were ruled by the courts as premature, immediately after the election were ruled as too late, and well after the election were ruled as "moot".

5) MASS CENSORSHIP was initiated by virtually every major meida outlet, including internet social media like Facebook and Twitter, against aynone expressing an even remotely conservative opinion, to include censorship of the sitting president of the United States (Trump), and outright banning of Trump after he left office.

6) MILITARY TROOPS AND CONCERTINA WIRE FENCES at the US Capitol.

7)THIS IS NOT A COMPREHENSIVE LIST

Amid all of the madness that we have witnessed in just the last year, amid all of the obvious lies and abuse of power we have seen, it boggles my mind that there are STILL some people who reject the mere possibility that an event, which appears staged and has been exaggerated to the point of hysteria, could actually be staged because they think that something so strange could only exist within a fevered "conspiracy theory".

Folks, what we are living in EVERY SINGLE DAY, RIGHT NOW, is more bizarre than the most far-fetched conspiracy theory would have dreamed up just one year ago. Adjust your thinking accordingly.

I think most rational people would agree that the ‘insurrection’ was largely staged. This thread is strictly dealing with whether or not Ashli Babbitt was actually shot and killed.

Her shooting being staged and her being alive somewhere makes no sense from any rational standpoint. There is however, a rational standpoint why someone would start a conspiracy theory about it. Because it builds ratings and puts money in the pockets of certain lunatic talk show hosts who ultimately care more about their wallet than anything to do with freedom or the United States.
