Like Luigi Mangione executing his attack very precisely, but having an instance where he was filmed with his mask off. The shooter could be someone who is skilled using a rifle, but not a trained assassin and makes a weird choice like carrying the rifle off the roof to dump in the woods when it would have been easier to just leave on the roof.

I'm not minimizing Trump/Patel using this as a Reichstag fire or that they even could have staged this for that purpose. But, carrying the gun to the woods before dumping it isn't necessarily a suspicious detail. If someone who isn't a professional does something extreme like this, their adrenaline has to be jacked and doing it must feel surreal - they might make a strange choice in the moment.

Couple of screws, that simple. And you could probably set it up with quick release if you wanted. So, what do you think? Silent Type Yesterday #18

That's what I've been wondering, too. I would assume a rifle shooting a target that far away Vinca 22 hrs ago #32
