Kirk was the most milquetoast of the pundits. He would talk with and listen to anyone who wanted to talk to him.

Gun ownership is a right and different than murdering an innocent with a gun.

Why liberals are snarky and sarcastic about this is beyond me; it’s not what we do in our country.

omg you have to be joking. Do you plug your ears when Trump speaks? Not see his tweets?

We don’t kill peoples we disagree with. At least most of us don’t. Democrats seem fine with it.

Did you hear about the killing of Democratic lawmaker Melissa Hortman in Minnesota? Or her husband or colleague by a Republican supporter?

Do not quote trolls. It just makes it harder for moderators to clean up.

I’ll be praying for his family tonight.

he lived what he believed- im sure that he would rather have paid the price we pay for the 2nd amendment rather than having innocent teenagers pay it. I hope you pray for those two kids and their families as well.

This country was born in political violence. We bathed in political violence, just violence period. It's in our country's DNA.

This is why I’m convinced the internet is full of bots, who even are these people?

Not everyone who thinks Palestinian dead count is a bot.

That account is literally anonymous. Of course the Palestinians matter, but a lot of people bring it up in bad faith. I don’t think that account is acting in good faith or might just straight up be a troll.

How is "good for the goose is good for the gander" bad faith? In a war, people die.

It takes reporting comments that violate it for it to be enforced.

I suggest you stop clutching your pearls and look up "own the libs" - being shitty toward others, and then being snarky and sarcastic about it has been the number one operating principle of the GOP for the last 10 years.

+1 it’s all bad, we are going to destroy each other if it doesn’t stop.

I imagine he will set this up as a state funeral.

Nope. But I bet he orders flags to fly at half-staff for 30 days or something. You know, an honor that Trump couldn't stand having been given ot a former President.

DP. I don't think the US is any worse than any other country, but we're definitely no better. Political violence is a fact of life most places.

Yep. 32 pages of comments and counting for the Charlie Kirk thread. No posts for the school shooting. Shows where their priorities are (entertainment as politics)

This thread is dedicated to the gun violence that he was part of enabling. The gun violence that those teenagers suffered today.

Because someone supports the Second Amendment and gun rights they deserve the death penalty? Got it.

Kirk said we have to accept some people will die so we can have 2A. I guess you could see him as a martyr, then.

Pp is just gloating bc they think it’s funny Charlie was a supporter of 2nd amendment rights.

He wouldn’t have changed his position even if he knew he was going to be shot. He was unafraid of stating his views. He knew he was a target. If you were a follower of his, you’d know that.

Great, so where’s the problem? He wa ready to die for what he believed in.

He will milk it as hard as he can to distract from the pedo-files.

Awful. RIP. Can’t we all take a breather. This political climate is scary and not sustainable.
