    I’m glad the money got donated, but this is still so odd. I still don’t understand why he kept saying they were donating the money to all these places during fundraising when they were sitting on the cash.

      The worst part is that his explanation is contradictory. First he says that he thought that donations were made, and then he follows it up by saying “we were collecting money to make one big donation”. Which one is it? Were you aware of the money not being donated, or were you not?

      This contradictory explanation, together with him attempting to hide behind his mother’s illness and his aggressive tone in the video, makes it pretty obvious that he simply got caught.

        That’s what I was feeling watching it, too. Maybe it’s because I recently watched that big Hbomberguy video on plagiarism, where he went into detail breaking down another “My Response” video to someone accused, rightly, of wrongdoing, but this whole video had me more distrustful. I really want to be wrong, but something’s not adding up.

    Jirard’s video makes me feel as though I’m at a bar with a drunk and he’s going to hit me if I say the wrong thing.

    Karl went for it though. I wondered if Jirard’s last video would have scared him off a bit, but Karl just went for it.

    I loved this line from Karl:

    What a pathetic bitch.

    He’s welcoming an audit so now we can wait for the real legal professionals to dig into this. Mutahar uploaded a response but I’m honestly so tired of this situation that I won’t even watch it. Karl and Mutahar should have stopped covering this on their initial videos because at this point it just feels like they’re milking it for money. What jirard did is really bad and they should have left it there for the professionals to handle it. This is a serious case of fraud that youtuber’s shouldn’t be making conclusions on.

      But how will they get more War Thunder clicks and irresponsibly point where fans can report people if they stop making YouTube drama?
