Im not saying that someone didnt screw up or that things didnt happen.

What Ive been saying since the beginning was that the countersnipers on the red barn did not engage in any of the garbage that a few people are belligerently insisting occurred.

They claim to be trying to get to the answer of what happened then why are they distracting everyone by fabricating nonsense about the only ones that seem to be doing their job?

What the rules of engagement are is not up to the countersnipers.

No, they cant randomly fire through buildings because someone is weird. No, not even if someone points to someone and makes an accusation. If I went to a Biden rally and pointed at someone screaming “gun!” then the secret service should just hose that person full of bullets because I said so? What if I accuse another person? If I did it 12 times in a row I could wipe out the whole rally.

There are a whole host of issues related to angles, communications between those who can see and those who cant, those in supervisory roles granting authority, and other things.

Then there is the issue that the ones buying and intentionally spreading this fiction seem to think that just because the countersnipers can see a piece of the target briefly that they can identify it both well enough to make sure that it is the correct target and hit it safely without risking collateral injury. It seems they dont even understand that someone shooting over a ridge only needs to expose the dome of their head and the muzzle of the weapon.

Ultimately the counter snipers, other than doing what they were supposed to when they had permission and safe opportunity, really have nothing to do with this story so many are trying to weave.

Yes, major problems that need to be addressed then why are these people intentionally creating a narrative that keeps the focus in the wrong place?

Don't point at anyone; just yell "Gun!".

I’m not interested in the SS snipers, I want to know why the SS chose to ignore the top shooting place and let some guy just openly get up there during the event with his rifle and shoot multiple people.

The excuse is that ‘sure that is a top shooting point but it is hard to get a perfect view of it from where I’m standing so let’s just ignore that roof.
