I'm going to guess that the weapon has a red dot and a magnifier on its rail or a Trijicon 4x32 site, the one used by the armed forces.

…and nothing about the guy they were perp-walking suggested that to me.

A former military sniper?

Was the high speed round hitting, not the sound of gunfire nearby. Wow so this is a carefully planned assassination.

Violence against speakers at college campuses can never be condoned, no matter who it is.

That said, Charlie Kirk has said a lot of hateful things and it is not surprising that somebody decided he or she had had enough and committed this act.

But I still hope the shooter is arrested and imprisoned.

If you want speakers banned from campus, there is a process for going about that peacefully. Shooting the speaker is never ok.
If nothing else, these types of shootings put spectators and bystanders at risk too.

As "reported" on Faux.

many questions that need to be asked regarding this shooting, and still the Epstein story will not go away.

Number of "libs" who are excellent marksmen is very small though finite.
Watch the blame coming for "libs" and no doubt Joe Biden.

And whoever it was missed his ear.

Sorry to be so cynical (the hell I am) but people who shot two Kennedys, Martin Luther King, and so many others who fought for justice DID NOT MISS.
