To the camera guy in the first live video near the scene, thank you for being respectful towards these law enforcement officers. Your kindness and respect for the area are greatly appreciated; you are a great example of how others should respect the law and surroundings.
Some of these comments exude impressive confidence, but unfortunately, their accuracy is lacking. Before making bold statements, it would be beneficial to conduct a bit of fact-checking. Spreading misinformation only creates noise, rather than providing valuable insights.
Its the dunning kreuger effect.
