[RD] Charlie Kirk assassinated

[caketastydelish]

In civilised countries we don't have capital punishment because it's a barbaric relic. He's advocating killing people in public, he got killed in public, it's called irony.

If Peyton Gendron or Dylan Roof were executed with it being open to the public, I for one wouldn't complain and wouldn't call it barbaric.

Yeah so maybe that's why the civility pearl clutching sounds so weak lol.

Probably better to put your energy into worrying about and opposing the insane backlash this is going to provoke by the governing regime and its supporting social movement.

 

[caketastydelish]

Are you saying this guy is the same as racist mass murderers?

 

[Arwon]

You went from getting all pearl clutchy about this dropkick to literally saying you support some public killing almost without prompting lmao

I’m a Republican and I wouldn’t even put it past Republicans being behind this because it’s just so damned galvanizing.

It's the same as other people executed without trial, like the fellows on the Venezualan speed boat last week. Someone decides you are a "terrorist" and unilaterally decides to do something about it.

If that's the society you choose to live in, so be it.

I cannot help thinking that it is quite ironic that Charlie Kirk who apparently supported the USA's
constitutional right to carry a gun (to shoot some one), got shot by er.. one of his own supporters.

After further consideration, I have concluded that when it comes to Kirks, I preferred Captain James Kirk.

I can rightfully criticize Israel for doing this, but not some of the people in this thread who think that kind of action is ok as long as the person murdered is someone they don't like.

Moderator Action: Political violence is not okay and openly supporting it here will be punished. That also includes accusing others of supporting it.

*insert "He's dead, Jim." joke here.

There you go, it's forum policy that supporting capital punishment, one of the most political forms of violence, is wrong.

Finally, some clarification

 

[Arwon]

It's something to stay vigilant for!

All you folks claiming Kirk's rhetoric was obviously evil and hateful had better hope the general public agrees, because the general public is going to be hearing a lot of his content, long form, in the coming days.

 

[caketastydelish]

Me changing my sig and avatar in a reponse to leftists celebrating his murder is barely the tip of the iceberg, compared to what is going to happen.

Yeah man I'm sure Americans haven't heard all that insane gun/abortion/bigoted rubbish, at volume, ad nauseum for the last 20 years. It's all fresh new surprising ideas, not the stuff that's running their country now, and driving them at rapid speed away into autocracy.

The pearl clutching about a guy who encouraged people to pay the bail of the guy who tried to kill Pelosi is astonishing yet unsurprising. MAGAworld has cheered political violence against their enemies from the beginning, all the way up through 1/6 and beyond, but demand the same empathy they refuse to show others.

That sounds like a veiled threat, mods?

You pretty much sum up most right wingers, as right now, you seem to be the only one who's actually triggered given your responses to people happy that Kirk is dead. Your the one who apparently needs a safe space where he can hide from people who disagree with you. You're the snowflake who's offended by everything.

Kirk's face ain't gonna trigger leftists. It's just gonna make them laugh.

What makes you think we haven't heard his bile countless times
