"I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights" - Charlie Kirk, 2023 |
I’m really appalled at some of the reactions I saw on Bluesky. Violence is not the answer (obviously), he didn’t deserve to be shot, and this is only putting us at risk for some reichstag fire and escalation. |
Buckle up. |
Can you post some of the Bluesky reactions? |
Thoughts and prayers. But to be fair, shall not be infringed. He was blessed to get to experience what those slaughtered elementary students felt, though. "Walk a mile in my shoes. Feel what I feel..." and all that. |
I don’t like him but I hope he’s ok. |
The quote was in response to having an armed citizenry and liberty. I hope they find the thug who shot him and lock him up for the rest of his life. Prayers for Charlie Kirk. |
It’s a cold world we live in and Americans are desensitized to gun violence. It’s not that surprising. |
Live by the sword, die by the sword or, in this case, by the gun.

I was referring mostly to jokes in poor taste-I didn’t see anyone actually contending it was justified but still. To be fair the majority are condemning it (it’s just the proportion of “shrug” responses surprised me.) |
Shooter was supposedly an older white male. |
