From what I saw the shot came from Kirk's right. Not ahead. But here is an article showing the "sniper's nest".

I hope we don't have a ruler here.

So these Christians who don’t vote for expanded social programs are ruling as secularists, putting aside their faith which demands we take care of the poor.

They’re doing what you want.

Christians don't covet another's property. What gives a Christian the right to take your property and give it to the needy? Nothing. That's what social programs do, and they are not inherently Christian.

I know all of this…

I’m demonstrating the logical fallacy that this guy keeps engaging in. He’s quite literally just as hypocritical than the “hypocritical Christians” that he’s trying to dunk on.

nope, wrong again. The bible clearly states to render unto Caesar what belongs to Caesar which means pay your taxes and follow the laws of the government.

Its in the governments remit to levy taxes and establish social programs.

Its 100% not incongruent at all to be a Christian that supports broadening the social safety net over starting more wars, giving subsidies to billionaires or reducing taxes for those that buy trump coins.

So you've suddenly realized that government run social programs have nothing to do with Christianity. And if thats the case, your "Christians are hypocrites" was just found to be invalid by your own words.

Jesus called on us to be personally responsible for this.

And why would a Christian ever want the government run in a secular way? Secularism is a religion in of itself which operates at complete odds of the teachings of Jesus.

My question is this…
1. A 30-06, in my experience, sounds like a cannon. The sound of the gunshot from the video sounds like a clack… more like a .223 or .556. Why would an assassin capable of making that 300 yard shot use a deer rifle?

2. Why wouldn’t the sniper simply and inconspicuously leave that boat oar of a rifle on the roof? Did he fire once from 300 yards… then calmly wrap the long gun in a blanket… deposit that gun in the woods… only to return to campus and have his pic taken in a parking garage?

None of this makes sense.

The only thing I disagree about it, have you ever shot an AR? They may not be as loud as a 30-06, but they hardly produce a 'clack'. More like a sonic boom.

Maybe, but the way I see it, the shooter was most likely professionally trained.

Not a hard shot to make on the range with a rest. Some of the contortions I make in a tree during deer season to thread a needle ...Now you have to be a psychopath to calm yourself down enough to make the shot at another human like this.

30-06 was a odd round to use for this. The Remington 700 chambered in this was the preferred sniper rifle for the military from World War II through the early 1980s. There are about 12 rounds that perform better down range with way less recoil. I'd be surprised if a professional would opt for that round to do this. They kick like a mule and sound like a cannon goes off with less performance.

I'm curious how nobody mentioned how the wind was howling (you can see the 'do not cross' tape almost get blown away)...

yeah, whoever he is, he has skills...

Not to mention a 'professional' would be getting paid.

When is the next press conference scheduled?

He also likely missed by a foot regardless of his aim point. Forehead or center mass.

Missing by 12 inches left and either high or low at 200 yards is how native Americans say "empty freezer for bad hunter".

Yep. No one aims at a neck.

My cousin is a gun dealer. We’ll take an assortment of guns out to the farm & shoot.

at this point (since nobody's figured out how effective drone surveillance would be as a deterrent), I'd never stop moving if outdoors ... #antsInPants

Found in the nearby woods wrapped in a towel.

There's a lot of seemingly contradictory info flying around so hopefully the assassin will soon be caught and we'll get reliable answers:

Lose the ear protection and shoot it, preferably indoors. Then tell me again about how it 'clacks'.

Electronic microphones aren’t going to be good at accurately capturing the sound as heard, given the volume of gunfire. And since most of the videos are up close being 200 yards away are going to change it.

At 200 yards you may also her more of the sonic crack in addition to the gas escaping the barrel. Barrel length also makes a significant difference, a 10in SBR in .223 or 7.62x39 is loud as hell because the deflagration of the powder isn’t complete when the projectile exits the barrel, so unburned powder is burning and expanding leaving the barrel. A 22in barrel rifle will completely burn all powder before the bullet exits the barrel.

That's a good question, stink. And I'm as perplexed as you are because I don't have an answer for you.

Elvis: For once, you're providing good analysis here. Yeah, a .22 is pretty quiet compared to a 30-06, which is what was allegedly used. (That's what I last heard so I could be wrong.)

Not 200 yards. Now being reported as 300 yards.
