51. You are being obtuse. No conspiracy required. Simply the will to repeat unconfirmed info from one

If they had evidence, such as photos, videos, eyewitness reports those media outlets would have produced it.

If you have proof of violence at the convention, please produce it. You would be the HERO of the HillBill Camp if you could.
