Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.

I’m not convinced it did happen. His last words were literally making light of gun violence. If I read this in a book, I’d say it was too on-the-nose
We have no clue how long the shooter was zeroed in. It's entirely possible they chose the funniest moments to pull the trigger.
His last words
He was asked how many shooters were trans in the last 10 years and replied "Too many"
He was corrected, the number is 5.
He was then asked how many shootings happened in these years (there were 5700)
He asked back: "Counting or not counting gang violence?" and got shot
I always said "You can tell when Charlie Kirk is arguing in bad faith by when his lips are moving and sounds are coming out."
And it was literally the last thing he ever did.
“Gang violence” = racist dog whistle. The assassin couldn’t have picked a more perfect time to fire. 😂
I'm laughing at the song choices being posted on the music community.
I hate how some are trying to spin this as "he was killed just for having different opinions" like no, he didn't just have "different opinions" that's grossly oversimplifying things, he advocated for the genocide in Gaza, said kids being shot in school is "worth it" because "god given rights" (which version of the Bible had assault rifles in it?) ridiculed disabled people in his circles, and said if his 9 year old daughter got raped he wouldn't allow her to have an abortion
All while in a position of authority and power with influence over a significant portion of people. How anyone can sympathise for him I don't know
The world is just a little better today.
Overall it still sucks, but it's nice to know good things still happen once in a while.
Yep. I've already said this like three times on other platforms: it's ok to be happy about this. He gave you permission. Twice, actually. The "it's worth sacrificing a person every now and then if it means we get to have guns" and this empathy thing.
This is maybe the only time it's ok to be happy someone died.
I firmly believe that there are people who make the world better by dying.
Let's also not forget how giddy he was when Paul pelosi was nearly killed over his politics.
so does this mean that any maggot who says they feel for his family or friends or colleagues, are really just liberal cucks in disguise?
I remember every single time someone they didn't like died. They would rejoice in the most vile manner imaginable. Fuck them.
I am betting that Kirk's killer was a fellow conservative who found him too soft and not hard right enough.
Or... maybe it was the same guy who killed Brian Thompson... because Luigi is innocent.
Maybe it wasn't murder. Maybe it was just an accident. There were probably lots of guns on campus, after all open carry is legal on campus' in UT, as I understand. Let's not prejudge the guy, he deserved a fair trial.
I wonder if we will get a new wave of users as reddit has another ban wave for people laughing at this cunts neck exploding.
They didn't seem to care when it was Paul Pelosi, or the two democratic politicians that were assassinated in their homes.
