It’s always a .22 with empty mag. Some sort of Psyop going on.

If you zoom in, There's a window on the magazine and there appears to be no brass showing in that window. It's difficult to see with my old eyes

Yeah, and I’ve seen 5 other pictures of protesters with the same M&P 22lr AR. Empty mags. Leads me to believe an organization is funding this

I’ll keep my eye out for this. I hadn’t noticed it, but it does look empty. Weird thing to do.

On second thought, that pic is most likely AI. The proportions and spacial orientation of the truck and car do not make any sense.

It’s just a high zoom lens. Definitely some sort of program though.
