I hate he was killed but it’s sad people are taking this harder than kids getting gunned down at school. 

I mean, if you count this shooting, this was only the 46th school shooting so far this year. 

And for those of y'all who negged Clintonaldo, there have been 47 so far. Denver, today, 3 in critical condition. See? He's right. Nobody gives a shit.

Those last 2 pictures are eerie. 

Such a shame. Killed while in the very act of practicing peaceful political discourse.

Whatever words were coming out of his mouth at the moment had zero to do with the timing. Too many other more important moving parts in play. 

Likely just Bayesian probability in action

Nothing. He disappeared into the wind. Only thing so far is grainy photos of dots that are supposed to be someone on the roof. 

Investigators have not identified a suspect, federal law enforcement sources say

From CNN's Evan Perez and Hannah Rabinowitz

Investigators don’t have a suspect identified in the shooting death of conservative activist Charlie Kirk and have launched a manhunt, two federal law enforcement officials told CNN.

Attorney General Pam Bondi said that agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the FBI are at the scene to assist.

Law enforcement officers can be seen in video footage combing buildings, including rooftops, at the perimeter of the open-air venue where the shooting occurred at Utah Valley University, an apparent effort to collect evidence including possible shell casings.

Is there any description of the shooter?

I'm afraid to make an educated guess.

Going to be interesting to learn the motive on this one (if we ever do). If it was from 200 yards, the shooter possessed the skills to target just about anyone. Even in the political podcast world, he's a pretty niche name.

13 M followers between X and Instagram is niche...ok sure man. 

That would be the right angle. They will have surveillance video from somewhere around campus. 

What type of building was the shot taken off of? Classrooms, student center, etc.?

That’s a pretty far shot if that’s the shooter.

Aint shit for a good hunting rifle. The shot was also off. He was either aiming for the head shot or the chest and got lucky with a neck shot in the jugular.

Yeah, sorry, poor world choice on my part. He's obviously well known in that sphere. I just meant a clear rung below the Rogans, Shapiros, Tuckers, Candices, and Kellys of the world.*

*if I'm wrong about that too, apologies. Right wing influencer view count is not my strong suit

This is an iron site basic shot. A basic marksman wouldn’t even need a scope for this shot.

It appears like there will be a ton of video to sort through but like the Boston Bomber situation LE should be able to track and find the shooter(s) I would think, there are a ton of cameras. 

Someone negged you for this?

No one knows shit about fuck.  All we saw was the exit wound.  Bullets do funny things.  No telling where the bullet entered. YET

And how does the FBI have a manhunt going when they don't have a suspect?

This is shades of the duo that had a snipers nest in the trunk of a car and scared the shit out of the DC area for a while.  They need to get this guy(s) alive.

More like influencer.  He didn't hold a political office (I assume)

Give it a rest, dude. I obviously know who he is and the publicity he gets for saying crazy shit. I assumed he was further down the pecking order of influencers. Didn't mean it to be an insult.

This. And how far was the shooter truly away on that shot.

The shooter getting away after shooting wouldn’t be impossible, but I imagine it would be difficult for the shooter to get away carrying his rifle. 

If parking access at that campus is as shitty as parking access is at most campuses, I doubt his getaway vehicle was close.   I’m assuming the FBI will create a perimeter and then start working inward looking for either the weapon or somebody with a weapon.  So I assume they have shut off streets and are searching vehicles near campus.

Or maybe Special Agent Johnson of the FBI is shutting down the power to the whole area.

FWIW, knowing Nicole, I think she was "liking" the post as a thanks for providing info. I don't think it was "liking" the fact that he was dead.

Suspect in Charlie Kirk shooting is in custody, FBI says

From CNN's Aditi Sangal

A suspect in the shooting and killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk is now in custody, FBI Director Kash Patel announced.

“The subject for the horrific shooting today that took the life of Charlie Kirk is now in custody. Thank you to the local and state authorities in Utah for your partnership with @fbi,” Patel wrote in a post on X.

Ah that makes sense. 

Immamac, not stirring shit, but I think sticking a “fatally” between Kirk and shot would be an appropriate thread title edit.

Anyone who thinks this is anything other than a huge deal is very disconnected.  Charlie Kirk was massively popular among young men, who everyone knows skew increasingly conservative.  This is going to radicalize a lot of them and further entrench them in their views for years to come.  The fact that it came right on the heels of the Ukrainian girl's murder, which itself seems to be mobilizing people is not good. At all.

I know Brisket, he would have missed that shot so no need to get upset.
