    Eyewitness reports inconclusively prove that the fentanyl that killed him was thrown by a passing mexican, middle-eastern (excluding Israeli), or other person of dirty brown origin.

    What kind of bs is this? What a screwed up world when you can SEE a guy get shot on TV and then people come up with this crap?

      This meme seems to me like a reference to how charlie used his platform to spread the lie that reports showed that George Floyd was killed by fentanyl overdose. No one believes that charlie died of OD, but charlie had millions convinced that George Floyd was not murdered by a cop and that people were over reacting.

      He died doing what he loved:

      Being a hateful cunt

      The world is a slightly better place now that he’s dead.

      I sincerely hope that it really hurt and that his final moments were spent regretting being such an awful excuse for a human

      I have seen the shooting video several times and it has been weeks to process the shooting. My take away is now this…. The world is much better without Charlie Kirk in it, and he died in the most “karma is gonna get you” way possible. I fee zero sympathy for Charlie, a bit for his right wing nut wife, but not much

      One where the dude who got shot advocated for this type of violence for close to a decade.

      Not sure what level of morality your are working with, but he would have been a proponent of standing on your neck.

        That’s not correct. He didn’t advocate for “violence”. He was a diehard proponent of gun rights (I’m not) but that’s not calling for violence. And I dont really care whether people agree or disagree with his views, SURELY we can agree that NO ONE should be shot for their views, especially when they’ve gone out of their way to advocate for open discourse and debate RATHER than violence.

          If you advocate for open debate but don’t actually debate in good faith, are you trying to open dialog or are you trying to muddy the water? That man did not debate in good faith and used a lot of strawmen. Period. He didn’t want discourse, he wanted hate. He wanted you to hate your neighbour because he looked and talked differently than you.

            Let’s say for the sake of argument, you are 100% correct. Did he deserve to be ASSASSINATED for that? Is that the answer to people we don’t agree with in a democratic country? Just KILL them?

              I don’t think many are saying he deserved it. I see lots of people saying they aren’t going to shed a tear now that his neck meat is on the floor. I think many also see the hilarious irony of a 2nd amendment idiot getting gunned down.

              Who said anything about deserving? But while we are on the subject, you Americans seem to think that yes, it is perfectly acceptable to harm those who you disagree with, and you seem to like guns a lot. Does a black child deserve to get shot for stealing a candy bar? Does a mentally challenged man deserve to be shot for showing police his favourite toy car? You reap what you sow.

          SURELY we can agree that NO ONE should be shot for their views

          His own people, his political party, shot him because he was a disgusting, horrible person.

          I think we can agree most people posting here are NOT MAGA or supporters of MAGA. We didn’t shoot him.

          I think most of us are laughing at the irony of a gun nut, who thinks people getting shot is just part of gun ownership - who also didn’t give a shit about school shootings, was gunned down at a school. It’s poetic.

          He said along the lines of school shootings were the meccesaary evil of having gun rights. So is getting shit in the neck.

            No he didnt say that about school shootings.

            He did say: “You will never live in a society when you have an armed citizenry and you won’t have a single gun death… 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.” which is why I said he was definitely pro gun rights, but no he never advocated for violence in any video or quote I have ever seen.

                Your statement was that school shootings were a necessary evil of having gun rights. He stated that there will be gun deaths if citizens are armed. He wasn’t speaking specifically about school shooting or that they are a ‘necessary evil’ which is what you stated. A narrow but important distinction.

                Just for the record I dont agree with the US stance on guns and I think gun violence is abhorrent, so I dont agree with Kirk’s views, Im just trying to be accurate as this guy gets misquoted A LOT.

                  You’re right. He wasn’t ONLY justifying school shootings. Just all shootings, which happen to cover school shootings.

              Thanka, then he got shot in an unfortunate gun death at a school. The irony of the school shooting topic at the heart of the gun conversation that plaques the USA.

              I’m not condoning gun violence but the guy has the most poetic death ever.

              Sad part is he’s one guy the maga idolize and tried to force other countries to recognize his death, but the US admin did nothing for all the others mudered by guns.

          “Some guns deaths are necessary to sustain the second amendment”.

          Also he was Anti-LGBTQIA+, and his position on the topic advocated violence as the end game.

          His “Open debate” didn’t meet the standard and was just brow beating people with false equivalence and gish gallop.

          Go back to fucking reddit or facebook with that fucking bullshit.

            Well, YMMV but personally Im a pacifist. I dont believe in killing ANYONE. I would make an exception for someone directly trying to kill my loved ones and I was there to stop it, but that would be self defense, not murder. My grandparents ended up in Canada specifically because they did not want to fight with the people who where raiding their villages and killing them.

              My mileage definitely varies, friend.

              One set of my grandparents were children in England in the 1940s, and experienced their homes being bombed during Nazi bombing raids over London.

              My other set of grandparents were a bit older and raised in Canada, but both proudly served their country against the Nazi regime. Grandfather was an RCAF navigator and grandma was a nurse.

              You don’t negotiate with Nazis. You shoot them. Dead.

              If you don’t, they will simply do the same to everyone else.

            Some of us don’t actually mind a little violence from time to time. Violence has been the only thing to actually bring about lasting positive change for the working class, and has been required for the removal of fascism. I’ve punched a few nazis in my life and I would not much mind shooting an ice agent off his victim. Nature itself is extremely violent. You are trying to virtue signal from the side of christofascism. Fuck you.

            I think it has a lot to do with being removed from ACTUAL violence. If those commenters were sitting at a speech and the guy just 20 feet in front of them had his neck blasted open with a bullet, assassinated and dying in front of them, they would have the same reaction as all the people in the video. Utter shock, followed by complete panic as they ran in fear as fast as they could. And likely weeks of sleepless nights replaying that in their head.

            But instead, they’d rather spew hateful words about another human being killed like it was a good thing because they didnt like his words. I agree, thats messed up.
