OK I've watched this footage multiple times and someone is going to have to Foxsplain to me why the hosts are categorizing this as "chilling"? This is video of Crooks walking around the Trump rally, unarmed and basically looking like thousands of ther Trump rally types. I mean he's not wearing a diaper,using the flag as a costume, or carrying around cups that claim to hold JD Vance's sperm, but rather walking around in pro-gun tshirt and passing the time...
I contend that if undercover agents were randomly walking up to average Trump rally attendees and demanding "ID", the first people who would complain would be the MAGA crowd. They'd be whining that the FBI was "harassing them" because they were Trump supporters. Trump told the SS at his DC rally on Jan6 to stop confiscating weapons, because thousands of people were refusing to give up their weapons to come inside, so the publicity photos demonstrating his crowd size weren't as full as he wanted. After all this was his chance to outdraw MLK...
Using that logic if this guy was walking around wearing a two gun bandolero across his chest, then that shouldn't even be suspicious. I mean there are multiple youtube channels which feature people carrying rifles, or wearing holstered sidearms just walking down public streets, in parks or various other locations just to demonstrate their brazenness to open carry and get in verbal confrontations with other citizens who oppose their actions. There's one channel with a guy that is a "fisherman", and that's his whole schtik, instigating controversy, even with law enforcement...
So I don't get why anyone that emmeshed in the gun culture should find this video of Crooks as "suspicious"? He's not armed, he doesn't seem to be engaging in any verbal disputes, just walking around minding his own business. So what am I missing about the terror this video should apparently reveal?
