Whatever you believe. We are all sons or daughters of mothers and fathers, some of us fathers mothers and even grandparents. Just because someone believes in a different political belief, does not mean they deserve to be shot. I feel terribly sorry for Charlie Kirk’s family. God bless him. Super tyke should really be banned from this sites
when I made my post there was no suggestion that he had died. I believed it to be a minor shooting and found that quite funny and ironic considering his views on guns. The second i learnt this was not the case I deleted my post. I fell absolutely awful for his kids. That's all I can say
Mate, help me out please. I’ve had to lock two threads already because people can’t show restraint. Creating new threads because the others are locked, isn't helping.
Let's keep a bit of perspective here. We've not just witnessed the death of Martin Luther King or suchlike. Charlie Kirk was a nasty piece of work by anyone's politics/religous beliefs. Just because he's now dead and was a husband and father doesn't make that any less of a fact, however sad that is for those close to him. Let's recall, this is the man who insisted that if he had a 10 yr old daughter who was pregnant by rape, he would make her carry the baby full term and give birth. He wasn't pleasant, he claimed the death of thousands each year, schoolkids included, due to gun laws in America were a price worth paying to protect the 2nd ammendment and even wanted those laws relaxing in some states. And that's before we progress to his views on the rights of anyone slightly different to himself. Am I glad he's dead? No, not really, he doesn't register on my radar enough to wish that, I'd rather it was his mate Trump. Does seem odd , the out pouring of love on here for such an obnoxious, intently divisive figure and the vilification and pile on to a poster who obviously was unaware he'd died. There are greater hills to die on should you wish.
I’m not glad he’s been assassinated, but i’m also not going to mourn someone with abhorrent views or pretend he was some hero. My biggest worry and the reason for why i’m feeling very solemn about this is about the inevitable retaliation though, no matter who is actually found to be behind it, it won’t matter. It’s going to get very messy over there. It feels a lot worse than even if a politician was assassinated honestly, because while yes he’s put himself out there as a public figure, he’s not been assassinated because of the policies he’s introduced like most political assassinations. It puts a lot more people at direct risk of a retaliation, people who are often not going to have the resources to protect them in the way a politician would.
Or biden or maybe starmer? Or maybe nobody at all it would be extra better. Lets all be grown up and have different opinions and views without hurting or should I say killing eachother
