You CANNOT observe an effect before the cause, regardless of reference frame. You can be struck by a bullet before hearing it because the sound doesn't make the bullet hit you.
Seeing the bullet exploding from the gun does not make the bullet hit you. Nor does observing the gunner shout "I will kill you now" and hearing the explosion that propelled the bullet. Observation of an event by an observer is something separate from the event itself.

I have clearly demonstrated a real and recordable instance of observing an effect before observing a 'cause'.
