Political Discussion
+1 I've seen numerous posts from people saying things like, "If you are cheering his death, unfriend me now". Do they really know people who are cheering this, or are they wrapped up in the perception that there are numbers of people they know who are? I don't agree with his views, I'm not going to mourn him, but I don't think in any way he should have been a victim of violence. I don't know anybody who has said anything remotely celebratory. |
What rifle? What he be talking about voice mailing me like that. |
I thought the bullet bounced from chest to neck |
+1 I was raised by an older parent born in the 30s who used the "n" word. I worked with someone who just recently retired who grew up in the deep south and still remembered having to use a different line at the doctor's office. |
Get off DCUM and go read some news blogs. It’s everywhere today. |
This is not the way. We have to be better than this. |
Good grief, woman. 40 years ago was 1985. You really think women and black people were "lesser than" in 1985? You don't know much. |
That’s going both ways. There were plenty of posts in this thread that were deleting that seemed like veiled threats. |
I don’t think we know. It doesn’t make sense it would be after- he wouldn’t know what he talking about unless he knew of plan prior. |
Good luck catching up PP. Maybe take a break from posting and go take a walk along the towpath. |
In one of the articles, a neighbor is quoted as saying they did not think or know the the roommate is transgender. I think it is being inferred and there is no confirmation. My very straight husband wears pink. |

What do you think it is about the Christian right that f@cks these kids up so hard?
The story is always something like “he was raised in a strict Christian family and now he’s living with 10 male hookers and had 50 guns in the house. His dad was a cop, and the mom knew her place. They were all molested by 100 Boy Scout troop leaders.” |
Fascinating. No one goes the doctor anymore. |
Correct. Poor reading comp skills Poor math skills No critical thinking No research skills No common sense. Par for the course 2025. |
If people are *cheering*, that's sick. There are a lot of us who find the act horrific, would NEVER condone killing someone period EVER, let alone for speaking about political beliefs, AND we also think this guy Kirk was a horrible person. It is really hard to swallow all the BS going around about how great this guy was. He was an absolutely awful person who tried to pretend he was a Christian. That offends me (as a Christian). I can condemn the act and I can condemn the things he said. These are not mutually exclusive or opposed. The fact that you think your FRIENDS will kill you for your beliefs means either (1) you have absolute freak show friends or (2) you are the one with mental illness here, a little too high on your own self importance and marinating in your RW persecution complex based on propaganda. The whole idea that the MAJORITY of democrats or liberals are out to kill people makes absolutely no sense based on the policies we fight for and the beliefs we espouse. If you think otherwise, you have been drinking too long from the RW poisoned well. And speaking of inappropriate social media comments, what do you think about our POTUS calling for violence, vengeance, and beat downs on a huge group of people, none of which had anything to do with this killing. One person perpetrated this killing and he is in custody. Do you think it's okay that even before he was apprehended, the RW politicians, including the frickin President were calling for violence, vengeance and retribution against democrats/liberals? Unless your answer is an immediate and emphatic no, then it is your friends who should really be afraid, because you are a lying hypocritical psychopath. Be consistent or sit down. |
