I feel for Charlie’s wife. Yes, because the family watched him die, and I don’t wish that type of trauma on anyone. But also - I would imagine that she’s been dealing with unimaginable grief and shock, while an entire corporation has been pulling her along, trying to basically figure out how they’re going to continue to bring in money for themselves now that the actual content creator is dead. You’ll probably see TPUSA pivot from the “facts over feelings” model to a near-100% emotional model, aka her “wail of the widow” remarks.
I don’t support him being shot, but Kirk would have supported it. He said no amount of lives are worth losing your gun rights— at a press conference following a school massacre. So, he got to literally choke and die on those words. Now put it on a fucking T-shirt.
See, there’s the motherfucker who deserves to be shot and killed, and would make the world a better place. Where is his bullet?
Trump is so upset over it, he should donate his beloved golden toilet seat to be installed over Kirk’s grave.
Anyone else feel like a lot of the responses from the right are quietly admitting some stuff? Like they heard "he didn't deserve to die" and their reaction was "omg, he was the best of us!" Set the bar a little higher, guys. Or accusing anyone who accurately describes Kirk's beliefs as calling for his death because "of course someone who believes those things would deserve death." Are you sure you didn't kill him?
A local restaurant is dealing with online review-bombing, because the owner posted on her personal Facebook about the karmic nature of his death. It eventually got shared the whole way to Canada, she had employees walk out (like I said, it’s a very red state). I used to gig there but I haven’t in a while because the food quality went downhill and the owner’s an asshole in nearly every aspect of her life already.
There’s for sure a tone shift since they learned who did it. Went from civil war to thoughts and prayers in about 2 hours. To stuff like this… https://bsky.app/profile/georgetakei.bsky.social/post/3lyqgdtoqje2t
Now there’s reports that the shooter was dating his trans roommate, and that’s who gave the police his messages and social media stuff. Everything is going to calm down, for sure.
