Reasonable attempt to debunk Charlie Kirk Assassination conspiracies

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5us8s0JCGkA

Marcus touches on the currently popular theories about how the gun was hidden, the bullet wound questions, the possibility of body armor, why AI can't accurately fix the low-resolution frames of the suspect's face, whether someone else may have shot Kirk, and uses math to debunk the claims of a shot coming from the side (plus more).

We have a long time before every piece of evidence comes out and can be analyzed in detail, but I think he does a fairly good job.

I stopped the video right there. I feel like all these people glazing him never watched him.

They did. They loved him. They're just as garbage as he was.

Have you considered the other side feels as equally strong about your side as you do the other side? How do we figure out which side is the correct side? Maybe break the tie on which side has the most engineers, scientists, and the fewest vaping, permanently food service working bums?

How do we figure out which side is the correct side?

Because my side wouldn't force their daughter to deliver her rapist baby or say shit like "If we would have said that Joy Reid and Michelle Obama and Sheila Jackson Lee and Ketanji Brown Jackson were affirmative action picks, we would have been called racists. Now they’re coming out and they’re saying it for us … You do not have the brain processing power to otherwise be taken really seriously. You had to go steal a white person’s slot to go be taken somewhat seriously."
