Charlie Kirk Shot

[326MOD10]

Charlie Kirk spewed no hatred that I ever heard. What are you referring to?

That is because you agree with him.

Many who don't would say the opposite.

But in no way does a difference of opinion justify an assassination.

Just look at the lines being drawn here. Many fail to realize that the most recent political assassinations or attempts were carried out by the very side they claim to support. Yet point fingers at the other side before even knowing any facts.

Even the statement made by the POTUS, and the US part shouldn't stand for the party I belong to, only hilighted actions committed by one side. Totally glossed over the other politically motivated tragedies as if they didn't happen.

Wake up America!

For those pathetic people looking to establish some type of moral equivalency between the cold blooded murder of Charlie Kirk, and the protest at the U.S. Capitol referred to as "January 6th", such a compariosn is more than disgusting. January 5th was a protest where a small goup of people committed some damage. The only death at the protest was an unarmed woman veteran protester shot at close range by a Capitol police officer. There is not even the most remote comparison of the two events and those seeking to justify that there was are trying to excuse the murder of this young man, or implying that he desersed to be killed because he expressed conservative views eloquently. I thought we had a better level of member here on this forum.

The last twenty years, mainstream news outlets have been melding opinion with hard news creating biased narratives. Many viewers believe it's real news instead of opinion. All news sources need to be taken with a healthy dose of skepticism.

it's been longer than that, unfortunately. and boy howdy is that ever in full effect on this one.

Nobody is justifying the murder of Mr. Kirk.

The conversation that brought this up centered around political violence and how both sides have had their own incidents of such. NOT THAT ANY OF IT WAS JUSTIFIED.

And as far as violence on the 6th was concerned plenty of officers were injured and others died from medical issues and subsequent suicides resulting from being attacked.

You would be wrong. Please bother to check the court documents.

DePape, a Canadian citizen who has been living in the U.S. for years, admitted during his federal trial that he planned to hold Nancy Pelosi hostage, record his interrogation of her, and "break her kneecaps" if she did not admit to the lies he said she told about "Russiagate," a reference to the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential campaign.

The man who was sentenced to 30 years in federal prison for attacking the husband of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi with a hammer in their California home has been given a life term without the possibility of parole following a separate state trial.

Yes I know all of that. It was an attempt at humor. The body cam footage made it look like Paul and "his friend" were doing weird stuff in their underwear. There were tons of jokes about it online. Even lefty Jimmy Kimmel joked about it. But that was a fine gotcha attempt.

I would think that the meaning of my statement would be clear to any thinking person.
Generally speaking when you act with kindness and tolerance toward others that is how you are treated in return and the reverse is also true.

Are you suggesting Mr Kirk did not ? Apparently I'm not the only non thinking as others have questioned your post as well

My prayers still go out to the Kirk family, but this can't help but go political. That's not why we're here.
We're done...
