This is a terrible position for the snipers, they literally could just barely see the stage area and partially the other rooftops. Were they meant to be shooting at birds, or maybe Trump? I don't think the threat would come from the stage, right?Benny Johnson was with the congressmen who went to the site. He tweets:
Here's him summarizing what he learned:
Including that security tagged him as "looking like an Antifa member", and that SS denied requests from local law enforcement to use drones.
And yeah if this sequence of events is correct, it reads like a script for Home Alone or the 3 stooges. It just seems too incompetent to be real (or accidental). 9/11 is full of that stuff too - from absurd levels of incompetence and seeming confusion to incredibly unlikely and coincidental events like building 7 collapsing, 747 folding its wings and disappearing before hitting the Pentagon, finding Atta's passport on the rubble, etc.
When are people going to stop accepting a string of incredibly unlikely coincidences, including a paradoxical suspension of protocol and common sense from highly trained and qualified personnel? They just shrug and go "yeah, that's crazy!". Like no dude, it's not crazy, stuff like this doesn't just happen, you think Loki woke up and decided to gaslight us all today for shits and giggles or something?
Most people seem to be waiting for a smoking gun. But as long as what happened is only highly improbable instead of impossible, many will still accept it.
What's interesting is our own court system doesn't work like that either - it doesn't depend on smoking guns, you just prove beyond reasonable doubt. Absolute proof is not necessary nor possible often. What is unreasonable is just highly improbable based on what we know. It's not impossible, just improbable, and that's good enough.
Every time something new is revealed on this thread, it just pushes it further into a conspiracy, it doesn't bring it back. Whether it be the locked down cell phone, or cell phone connections to FBI or Israel, or the behavior of the snipers and SS, that kid being able to get on the roof with all this gear he brought, etc. It's like not one thing about that day makes me go "oh ok at least this makes sense, I could see how that could happen". Every new thing is like "are you f'n kidding me, this too?"
I guess I'm just ranting because this latest sequence of behaviors from the snipers was just yet another "are you kidding me" moment.
