One other thing.
LOTS of losers/tinfoil hat types (both left AND right) are saying “tHiS iZ a dErP sTaTe oPeRAsHun… hUrR, duRr!”
A professional hit. Sure.
A “professional” would have had exfil/egress route planned, some way of getting inTO the building or off the FAR side AWAY from observation so he could easily blend in with personnel or crowds.
Even if it was a take down [ which the picture supplied by the FBI is not ], why would he take it down and, presumably, stow in his backpack afterwards, then leave it behind reassemble to be found?
This does stink
If Cops roll up, he’s using his weapon. He abandoned it after he was alone in the trees and had escaped, in his mind.

1. He is carrying a gun in the video, either wrapped in a dark towel or in a soft sided case.
2. Not a professional hit: A professional would not be seen in my opinion, in the firing position, or on cameras so close to the scene. Also not a difficult shot from prone position using a scope from 200 yards.
He has a Bag.
—
The bag is flaccid - if there was a assembled rifle in it, it would not be flexible like a piece of cloth.
If he had a rifle he would have dropped it to the ground and then jumped.
Indeed this whole assassination does not pass the smell test from the info available so far as it is reminiscent of the attempted assassination of President Trump in Butler. No surprise if some element of the deep state was behind it but hired/found an amateur lunatic to do the murder like Crooks. Notice much of the surrounding evidence in that case disappeared to this day.
Going out on a limb here, and I assume it will be chopped off, but consider he may not be the shooter, but a decoy.
“If you watch a slowed down version of the video, when he is about to descend from the roof, he turns his back to the camera that is recording him, he’s wearing the backpack and holding the rifle, to me it’s clear as day.”
Yes, absolutely. And then after he jumps he has to gather the Rifle back up after he lands so that he can carry it away along side his body in an effort to hide it and not make it so obvious. It looks like it is in a loose soft case designed for something else.
Exactly, the flaccidness seen is the result of the soft case, or cloth the gun is wrapped in being longer than the weapon.
I am starting to think that there is a whole lot of disinformation going on here.
The old man on the ground claiming his miranda rights.
The kid jumping off of the roof without a rifle.
A rifle found in another location.
Killer still on the loose.
What if all these details were pre planned to throw law enforcement off the trial.
I think that since no one can identify the murderer, he is obv a sniper from another country. The ‘messages’ on the barrel are just to distract from the truth.
He will never be caught.
“If he had a rifle he would have dropped it to the ground and then jumped.”
That is what you or I would have done because it is common sense. But seriously, this guy jumped off with it still in his hand... It was a dumb move, he could have seriously hurt himself if he had landed on that barrel sticking up vertical.
As Spock would say, “logical.”
I don’t think the gun found in the woods was the gun used in the shooting. It was a calling card.
How did he manage to grip the edge of the roof carrying a rifle. I have yet to see a rifle. He had to drop at least ten feet.
Yep, slowed down and zoomed in there are a couple points where it is absolutely obvious it is a rifle.
Charlie was killed at a specific location. How long was it known that he was going to speak on that spot? Or did Charlie not know and organizers directed him there on the day of the event? And was he seated when he was hit?
Whether a conspiracy or alone, to prepare for a long-range shoot, I think a shooter would have to know where their target would be. And if the target is offered a chair for a speaking engagement, its natural for them to sit down at some point. That’s when the target would be voluntarily immobilized for a careful aim.
I think knowing how the event was organized, promoted, and staged may proved clues as to who did the planning and their circle of acquaintances and friends. Possibly, there is a mole in that bunch who informed the shooter.
He sat the rifle down at the edge of the roof, then he climbed over the edge, hung by one arm and reached up and grabbed the rifle off the roof edge and then jumped with it in one hand. Looks like he dropped it when he landed and it took him a few seconds to gather it back up again so that he could run with it.
“I have yet to see a rifle.”
You will if you download it, slow it down, and zoom in like I did...
