Good statement from Trump, but I wish he would let someone coach him so he doesn't sound so rote when he's reading off the prompter
 
I don't know how to feel about the numerous Xitter accounts making conspiracy theories on how the bullet actually deflected off him because he was wearing a bulletproof vest.
 
Kirk's assassination, along with the Ukrainian girl's murder, along with the assassination attempt on Trump, along with all that other clown world craziness and violence and thinly veiled calls to violence by prominent figures on the Left over the last ten plus fucking years have radicalized me. I don't think like a conservative anymore. I'm something else now--not sure what, just feeling my way.

Anyway, whatever you might think of Charlie Kirk, it's likely his assassination will be remembered as a pivotal event down the road, the inciting incident. I'm guessing political violence will escalate now because historically that's how it happens: one thing leads to another to another in a chain reaction until it goes beyond anyone's control and explodes into something cataclysmic and horrible.

People who say violence isn't the answer are just preening and posturing, mouthing soothing platitudes to feel good about themselves, morally superior. Violence may very well be the answer. It depends on the question.
 
Unpopular opinion here, I know, but this seems like a case of "play stupid games, win stupid prizes." Guys like Charlie Kirk have made themselves experts at stirring the pot, and pressing people's buttons. They wallow in it. They've created a toxic space of shout-show hosts and grievance. Fox News and talk radio are not legit and exist solely to drum up dissatisfaction and outrage. MSNBC is the same, only not as good at it. It's no surprise they reach a point where a crazy decides to shut them the hell up. Today, it's Charlie Kirk. Tomorrow it'll be Rachael Maddow or Lawrence O'Donnell or some other left wing guy. Maybe some loudmouthed Hollywood type, or AOC. Basically these two extremes are both awful for all of us, and they specialize in shaking the soda bottle every day and have been non-stop for over twenty-plus years now. No one should be shocked when the plastic bottle bursts. The real surprise is that it hasn't happened before now. And that's sad in every way.
 
But he never even said that?? What is it with the made up claims?

I never really liked charlie, to me he was a "bot republican", in that he was a bit to much of touch the party line.But the weird justifications of the groypers and TEStards are quite retarded regardless.

Kirk prior to Trump's retardation with the Epstein files: "I trust Pam Bondi, I trust every single one of these people. I guarantee you right now there is a major collision happening. "More will come, I hope (referring to the photo op of the phase 1 files being "released" to certain people), and we want transparency. In fact, we demand transparency. We have been told the Epstein client list is right there on the desk, so we need to see it. The expectation has been set very very high here" -February 28th 2025.

Kirk After: "Plenty was said this last weekend at our event about Epstein. Honestly, I'm done talking about Epstein for the time being. I'm gonna trust my friends in the administration, I'm gonna trust my friends in the government to do what needs to be done, solve it, ball's in their hands."

Kirk on the Epstein letter signed by Trump: "This is the dumbest - obviously fakest thing. I don't believe it. Apparently, it was some kind of pseudo-love letter?" "There's no photo of the letter in question, or the birthday card.." "When has he (Trump) ever done anything like this? I have several handwritten notes from President Trump. He's not a doodler."
 
I don't get why they didn't round up every tranny in sight instead of focusing on a boomer. Although I'm starting to suspect this may have been a professional hit. Does Charlie Kirk have any enemies with the kind of money to do this? The only people I can think of are Matt and Trey.
Can you go be Brazilian somewhere else?
 
Gonna get downvoted to shit for this, but y'all are tinfoil sperging like your asses are on fire. Let's be realistic, this took place in fucking Utah. It's gonna come out that this was probably a groyper or considering the accuracy of the shot, an ex-military mormon loonatic off their meds, everything's going to fizzle out in a week when they catch him, and continue like normal until the next big name gets killed. It happened with Luigi, it happened with the failed trump shot, and it's going to happen with this.

That was a clean shot and kill. This wasn't a troon.
 
If you're intentionally subjected to threats, insults, or worse by Activist Group A, month after month, year after year, practically anytime you leave your home, you may find yourself wishing that the world could be scrubbed clean of every last member of Activist Group A, regardless of whether or not each individual member of that group has been directly complicit in attacking you. This is what I have found.

I'm not trying to persuade you that you're wrong, just offering a contrasting perspective.
There's a difference between venting frustration in a controlled environment and publicly expressing joy for an objectively heinous action. I don't hold myself with a high standard of morals or expect others to atone to my personal principles. Even so, I have my limits.
 
My goodness. This guy's face is more traumatizing than the video of Mr. Kirk being shot.


South Park has made fun of absolutely everyone -- Christians, Jews, Muslims, Mormons, Scientologists, atheists, right-wingers, left-wingers, transgenders, gays, Republicans, Democrats, etc. etc. etc. Their indiscriminate approach lays them open to accusations of fence-sitting and of both-sides-ism, but they're not responsible for the feelings of persecution you've expressed so histrionically.
Bit off topic, but the main reason they skirted from satirizing Biden because both his admin as well as Matt and Trey share the same lawyer (Kevin Morris). They were still making episodes then, just never any jokes about the president.
