I'm sure you can also say it's a fact that his shields were broken and not him turning them off to go on the offensive? I'm SURE you have proof they were broken right...
But I don't care if they were broken or not or if he turned them off. If they weren't broken and still remained but were doing little to protect him, similar to how Sentry was blitzing Doom and knocking him around but Doom's shields are still at 5% or whatever, fine. I can accept that. I've seen it in comics.
If Thanos turned them off because they weren't going to do sh1t as Odin >>> PG Thor anyway and was going to destroy them, fine. I can accept that. Thanos decided to save Odin the extra effort. Dumb, but that's apparently what you're trying to convince me of.
But let's get things straight: You're not demanding proof that scenario #1 is what happened. You're demanding proof that scenarios #2 and #3 could never possibly happen. And I'm not going to prove a negative. The first scenario is likely. Odin's blasting the crap out of Thanos, one moment his shields are up, the next moment, they're not. First obvious conclusion: busted.
And the sheer magnitude of semantics you're vomiting up in this thread to avoid this simple conclusion is astonishing. But, hey. It's you after all.
