We live in an over connected world where Cameras are everywhere. And an inordinate amount of people carry HD ones in their pockets. While there always is the potential for shenanigans.
You also have more people than ever filming shit for a variety of reasons. Everyone with a Blog and Camera is suddenly an ‘independent Journalist’. Then there’s a plethora of Freelance Videographer/photographers who generate stock footage for media outlets. Then there’s an extremely large class of wannabe ‘influencers’ who are always filming shit for social media clout. So on and so forth.
Point being. You can’t reliably assume shenanigans anymore because someone got really good angles on an event. As there’s more people than ever taking photographs and video these days. To be clear. You also can’t discount shenanigans either.
It seems like if you were going to do something like that, you'd be a little better at planning it than doing it right in the face of a camera. They could have prepared it in the ally, thrown it, and ran back in the ally.
All of these so-called "lone wolf" style or "ISIS inspired" attacks seem extremely fishy and way too convenient. They all play into the über Commie Left's "islamophobia" narrative wwwwwaaaayyyyy too neatly, easily, and conveniently to be much of anything else but a not-so carefully scripted event.
The real Islamic terrorists are more than happy to sit back and watch right now, especially since their main support structures are too busy hiding in their caves and bunkers waiting to see what Trump, Hegseth, and Gabbard do next.
If I were a terrorist, I would be watching the U.S. response to these lone wolf attacks, analyzing the structure of the responses, the timing of those responses, the strength of them, and what the "official" narratives are coming from the various levels of govt leadership. I would've given my teams explicit instructions to just sit and wait until it's quieter and the public's gaze is distracted elsewhere. I'd also ensure their targets are nowhere near any "protests" or large public events while also ensuring they know which of the soft targets would be best for maximum fear and effect. Sitting and waiting also makes it extremely more difficult for the LEO and Intel agencies to locate them and act on them accordingly. That's why we haven't seen any groups actually and openly affiliated with AQ, IS, Taliban, IRGC, etc actually do anything yet. They're watching and waiting. Planning and preparing. And some, if not most of the shooters are probably actively training even here in the U.S. at our plethora of civilian weapons training facs, practically out in the open, to help keep their skills sharp. Precision and fast shooting is not like riding a bike. It's a perishable skill that falls away fast if you don't use it regularly enough.
It doesn't take world class terror, anti-terror, or counter-terrorism training to figure any of this out. It doesn't even take much effort thinking about it, either. All it takes is the ability to think like a terrorist. The problem here and in the rest of The Western World is that we've allowed the idiots and asshats of the Left to weaken us with their "feelings over facts" effeminate style of governing and all-around civilian life. We've continually let the weakest mentally, emotionally, spiritually, psychologically, and physically to propogate their ideology and physicality for far too long. Eventually, it's all gonna come back to haunt us in ways that will enrage the stronger of us and cower even more the weaker among us.
I just hope and pray that it doesn't do any real and great damage, but I'm not relying on just prayers and hope. This modern world is getting worse spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and psychologically, and humanity is continuing to let itself get weaker physically in ways I never thought we'd see. So I'm pretty much convinced God is going to have wake humanity up the hard way.

Yeah. I bet the "protestors" weren't even real protestors either like all the rest of those types of protests. They were probably in on it as well.
There's you and then there's 75 IQ minions straining against leaving the comforts of the 15th century at the urging of their elders.
I'm with you.
Nope.
That'll be $0.99 into your account. The IDF and ADL thank you very much for your service.
Yup.
its NYC, everyone has a phone
That wasn't just a phone camera. At least, I don't think it was.
