22. You need evidence, not me. Ball is in your court. With wind & camera movement shown, you need crane operator evidence

You don't have it.

Thing about confirmation bias is that it doesn't need evidence. Just claim the flags moved without a wider angle to provide evidence. There are wider angles of the scene. Find one, and apply measurements to the point where the flag is attached.

But you won't. And you can't, because measurements will show it didn't move. How do I know? I don't know. But it is not my theory. Ball is in your court. You need evidence. You don't have it.

The wind moved the flag and the camera moved. You can see it. There is no evidence crane operators lowered the flag Bernardo de La Paz Jul 2025 #13

See if you can come up with any evidence for your position, Bernardo. In the meantime, have a lovely day. Scrivener7 Jul 2025 #23
I already gave you the evidence and stated it twice. But, hey, it's more fun to add people to the conspiracy. . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Jul 2025 #27

Scrivenor7, I went and looked at the video and as least regards the alleged lowering of the flag, harumph Jul 2025 #42

Why won't they release the "Trump assassination records"? Dave Id Jul 2025 #7
