waste any time with sympathy for one of the architects of our new American fascism.

I will save mine for those who are deserving.

That was recent - right?

even delving into the religious side claiming that "Christ-like compassion has its limits" and was somehow not for manly men.

it's truly baffling to me as a normal human being.

Is waxing poetic and throwing out theories - here's mine . . .

Kirk had a bootleg copy of the Epstein files.

now. I wondered if that was intentional. Then they fixed it.

This world is out of control. I’ll listen or not listen to someone. It’s my choice. I would never kill someone for a verbal disagreement. It’s absolutely disgusting to me. I really feel like there is no way to stop the coming revolution.

Then the people will find other means of effecting change

And I’ll shed no tears for a “gun rights” zealot come face to face with the fruits of his zealotry.

Go vote. That the country. Thats what you can do.

The country doesn’t change by individuals desires. We ban together and get change when we have enough votes to do it. You are absolutely wrong. Then…leave the country. Go find the panacea country that has everything you want and will change based on your desires.

You need to address your pearl-clutching to the people who’ve chosen violence.

Please…you are advocating violence because we’ve got a rough 4 years.

Tides go back and forth on the voice of the people. And somehow you think that assassinating Charlie Kirk will somehow better our situation is delusional. A martyr will be created that spoke to college campuses. Now his message will be clear to many more and somehow validated by his death.

I know how your type works, and further discussion with you doesn’t interest me.

Nor can they express it.

I've had posts hidden for less, so props to you for skirting the TOS.

I know it’s depressing, but there never has been hope. The fix has always been in.

be the one that changes my direction..
Potentially the most vile thread I've seen here on DU. I'm outright ashamed to be on this side of the fence right now.
Like him or not, CK was a human being and there are people who are happy about this. It's making me sick to my stomach reading this shit.

Charlie Kirk said a real "patriot" should bail Paul Pelosi's attacker out of jail.

Charlie Kirk was a human being and perhaps a good husband and father. I feel sorry for his family and his kids who probably won't remember much about him. I am not happy about this and I venture a guess that most of us are not happy. But the irony of a person who has fanned the flames of hate for quite some time losing his life on that altar of violence he made is not lost on most of us.

I wish this had never happened, but he was apparently being a smart ass about mass shootings to someone who asked him about such things at the time he was shot, so in the spirit of what he continually preached... maybe this was God's will.

Besides, he said it himself, empathy "does a lot of damage."

How about for being a galvanizing misogynist, a career hatemonger, and a long term stochastic terrorist?

Hitlers Germany, black Americans facing lynch mobs and people Trump calls criminals even though most are hard working people trying to care for their families. Think Minnesota.

I lost the last dregs of my CNN respect years ago.

over backwards. Someone has been shot and possibly killed. The fact that he had opposing views should not mean we celebrate a shooting. Get it together!!

But I will give him the same consideration he gave to others, mainly people of color.

Brainwashing young people to be a version of the Hitler Youth aka as Turning Point USA.

This is NOT just about “opposing views.”

He wanted us to be ruled by a Christofascist dictatorship.

I do not celebrate his death.

.But Republicans have become so vile that I have no sympathy for them, either.

They want to destroy us.

They consistently show you who they are and who they support.

Have you lost respect for them too? Gabby Giffords? Nancy Pelosi?

Unlike the person who was attacked.

Would give equal coverage to then point of view of thr shooter. Maybe some discussion about marksmanship in the USA, and the case for better and more training to ensure top level marksmanship.

the talking heads are sucking up to that executive, possibly. That might be why CNN is overboard.

Didn't CK criticize Krasnov or the Administration recently, possibly over the Epstein files?

don't die Charlie.. may three ghosts visit you and you wake up a decent person.. long shot, I know, but.......

almost always sugarcoats their lives. Not saying it's good or bad, it's just the way it is.

When Rush Limbaugh was announced as dead.

And the media blithely just walks on by. Kirk’s life has no more or less meaning than anyone else who has had their life cut short by gun violence

They claimed no inflation and the bad economy and job numbers were Biden's fault.

Was it because of what I call his dry sense of humor? I loved him.
Aaron Brown, wherever you're at, come back. Podcast!

Will run over to youtube and see if I can find his face and voice there. For old times sake. Thanks.

Can we get rid of guns now?

and permanently disfigured or disabled, would give up the pay offs from the gun lobbies.

Sorry, Charlie.
Race War/Civil War?

right now.

He's interviewing some R politician who said that Kirk wanted his children to grow up in a safe neighborhood with the possibility of buying their own house. So he was against every policy, including gun control, that would make that possible? I mean, the guy is dead and was a victim, but there is no need to make him a truth teller or some kind of savant. He wasn't.

who and what Kirk was.

Who fed white supremacy to the masses.

I won't be crying over Krasnov, David Duke, MTG . . . was thrilled when limp balls died.

This is where we are now - and he was part of creating two Americas.

If it was me - he would laugh.

the country even more, and of course he will scapegoat goat Democrats even if the shooter turns out to be a Republicon.

The bothsiderism and ass kissing is disgusting!

Charlie Kirk, the leader of the rightwing Shitler Youth Movement which encourages the overthrow of our Democracy,
was silenced by a patriot today.

or

An unnamed Mexican was beat and had his face pushed into 140 degree asphalt while working in a car wash by military thugs wearing masks. Charlie would say they had it coming.

South Park nailed it! Kirk didn't care who got hurt as long as his ideology wins at any cost!

AMF!

At 31-year-old man has been killed leaving behind a widow and two children. It's a tragedy. Just like the killing in Minnesota was a tragedy. This political violence has got to stop.

We call out he was a racist piece of shit?

That is not how a civilized country deals with racists and bigots.

Proof?

We have racists and Nazis running AmeriKKKa.

He once said that the Civil Rights Act was one of the worst things to happen to America. His job was to convince young white people that the color of their skin religion entitled them to rule over me.


I guess you are safe in this regime. Kudos to you.


He reminds me of Hoerst Wessel.

are saying that I feel safe under the current regime. That comment is totally uncalled for and I resent it. For your information I condemn everything that Kirk stands for. But taking him out with an assassin's bullet is immoral and wrong and will only lead to more violence.

I have none for him now.

I am not an advocate of violence, nor vigilante actions. I believe there are other means to achieve justice.

I wouldn't put the idea or the weapons in the hands of those who did this. Charlie did both for the mass killers I cited above.

He was a vile, hate filled, arrogant white supremacist who fought common sense and human dignity at every turn. He was about as far from a patriotic or Christian American as you could get. I guess he'll find out just how much his privilege is worth now.

He left behind his children and wife, sadly. I hope they will find more sympathy and support than Charlie offered other survivors.

I will say this though: It certainly looks like a case of what goes around comes around.

Had a few things to say about chickens coming home to roost.

When they switched from John Kerry speaking live before the Senate to a recorded speech by some right-winger, "for balance" they said. That was all it took for me.
