[brandon]

Yea, I saw it. I don't think he's gonna make it.

Geez, this kind of violence is indicative of the hatred that has been unleashed.

The country has sown the wind. We are about to reap the whirlwind.

 

[brandon]

It's definitely too soon, but if he doesn't make it, this will reverberate.

Geez, this kind of violence is indicative of the hatred that has been unleashed.

The country has sown the wind. We are about to reap the whirlwind.

Indeed, and a good bit of that sowing was done by the victim of this crime.

this is all a precursor to a police state.

Kirk isnt an angel. His own rhetoric was divisive, toxic and amplified.
There is an inherent risk when you build your entire career off of that sort of rhetoric.

But he chose this route and here is where it led. Sad really.

It is Kirk's belief that gun violence is a worthwhile price to keep the second amendment.

"You will never live in a society when you have an armed citizenry and you won't have a single gun death," Kirk said at a Turning Point USA Faith event on Wednesday, as reported by Media Matters for America. "That is nonsense. It's drivel. But I am—I think it's worth it.

"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. That is a prudent deal. It is rational. Nobody talks like this. They live in a complete alternate universe."

Charlie Kirk says gun deaths "unfortunately" worth it to keep 2nd Amendment

The conservative founder of Turning Point USA made the comments following a mass shooting in Nashville last week that resulted in six deaths.

He has some interesting comments on shooting victims. It’s easy to search for it on google.

Yeah, he did. Doesn’t excuse this by any stretch of anyone’s imagination. Unfortunately, we have a long history of politically motivated violence topped off by the hatred flood.

We look like Russia more and more each day. Good lawd. This is nuts.

Murder/shooting/stabbing to opposing sides.

sigh...

Unfortunately, the gun deaths in this country are 4 times the next highest so-called advanced nations that have stricter gun laws. He was wrong but that is unsurprising.

Overwhelmingly in large part because of the toxic rightwing propaganda that Kirk has enthusiastically spread.

Just this week he spoke of African Americans being more likely to commit a crime than whites.

Guy was full of divisive sound bites.

 

[el caliente]

Unconfirmed, but he is dead.

Life comes at you fast. Don’t forget to tell the ones that you love how you feel, “the Falcons suck.”
