I said YESTERDAY that the group of institutional interests that have organized around the "left" in America have completely lost their ability to argue and convince, and so have no instinct left in the face of disagreement but to attack it.
So true. Charlie used logic and civil discourse to thwart the insanity of the left's ideology. They're never able to counter with rational defense of their ideas, so they inevitably resort to violence.
God bless Charlie Kirk and his family. Our nation was blessed to have him, and his death won't be in vain. He achieved more in 32 years than most do in a lifetime and was the epitome of courage. Such a sad day for our country.
That's it. They've decided they can't win on the cultural-political fields. Now the long knives come out. 7 dead AfD politicians just before winning the election. The pattern is congealing.
Waiting for the media to tell us it was a mostly peaceful assassination attempt. There has been a lot of loose talk implicitly condoning political violence lately from people in the media and government. It has to stop.
I accept that 100%, but we have to do something besides impotent whining. In the last 4 years, I've helped a few friends stop voting for Democrats as I, a former "Blue No Matter Who" voter, was guided away from that hateful, useless party. Let's avenge his tragic death by bringing about a red tsunami for the 2026 midterms.
Charlie's my homie from Wheeling. Praying for him.
So much of what's been going on these past ten years makes me so damned angry. And any time I try to venture anything rational with these people they come at me with pitchforks. They're so disgustingly hateful it beggars disbelief.
Prayers for Charlie. Please God Keep Him Among Us.
MSNBC beat everybody to the "what kind of disgusting things can we say about this horrible story" table. Absolutely vile. The mainstream media needs to be flushed.
They need to be fired (the talking heads) and the company should lose their broadcast license for what they said. Victim blaming is the way of the left.
That's the general consensus coming out of X right now. I've probably read about 100 posts calling for removal of their FCC license for inciting violence and spreading hateful propaganda.
It's been in a downward spiral for awhile...nothing against the boomers, but they are dying off. GenZ and millenials can't STAND mainstream media, and that's both sides of the aisle. It's only a matter of time.
This is absolutely horrible. Charlie just talked to people. He was willing to hear someone out, regardless of the topic, and was always respectful. This type of violence makes me absolutely sick. Pray for Charlie and his family.
I’m working on a project in the backyard, using power tools and doing my best Tim Allen…I hadn’t looked at my phone in 2 hours and I see an email from SimCom about Charlie Kirk.
Did a bit of quick scrolling on X as my mind reels against this reality.
Pray for Charlie. Pray for his family. Pray for each other.
I’m in Summit county but I’ve visited UVU several times and never dreamed that such hate was there. The world has lost a wonderful young man and we are all diminished by this.

That's true Chris. It is possible this is a symptom of their institutional collapse, violence the last resort for them
I used to tell my young boys, “use your words!”, when they were having a red faced, stompy footed tantrum over something they didn’t agree with.
Now lefties just pick up a gun, shoot, and then blame conservatives for letting them have a gun.
PS think about it. Young men in Kirk's demographic becoming strong swayers of conservative polls
I don't think young, committed and determined men are a constituency that you want to antagonize. How does this end? Not well for the left, methinks.
Hoping you are all safe, supportive vibes from the Carney-val up north.

Leftist radicals are evil. “Change my mind”.
Radicalized leftist are evil.
“Change my mind”
Gear up, we are headed for a reckoning.
Looks like its open season on people like us in this country right now.
Stay armed.
Many, *many* Canadians wish we had your right to armed self-defence. More than many people realize.
Some provenances want to break away OR join the US. Those Canadians may get their wish.
Time to get those ccp’s.
Tell me how this ends. Tell me WHEN this ends.

CNN reported it was a supporter that accidentally shot him while firing their gun in celebration
Seriously?
FCC needs to shut them down. They mislead the public and endanger Americans safety.
MSNBC. Might’ve been stark ignorance but was probably malice.
This ends when we start fighting back for real.
If Charlie could, I'd bet he'd argue words and votes are the weapons of this fight.

Rest in power, King.
How does it end indeed. How do we continue to live in the same country with people this vile?

Amen!
Amen!
Tell me again how it's the Right who are the domestic terrorists and how the Left are the defenders of democracy...please!
Sorry, I don't lie, so I can't help you out.
The Left always projects who they are onto their opponents.

It's really beyond vile that they have been doing this. It's their brand, and it needs to be shut down for good.
It's been in a downward spiral for awhile...nothing against the boomers, but they are dying off. GenZ and millenials can't STAND mainstream media, and that's both sides of the aisle. It's only a matter of time.
GenZ here and I definitely hate the mainstream media. They are liars and hypocrites, and media is full of evil vile people.
Lord please protect and help Charlie Kirk.

He was very effective
Praying for a miracle. For Charlie and this country.

This is so dark.
bsn
No doubt we’ll be hearing a lot of “I don’t condone violence, *but*…”
As a resident of Utah I am just devastated to hear that this happened. He’s a wonderful young man and I hope there’s a miracle for him.
Where are you? I'm in Orem.
I’m in Summit county but I’ve visited UVU several times and never dreamed that such hate was there. The world has lost a wonderful young man and we are all diminished by this.
It looks very very bad. Obviously you want to hold out hope and pray, but... it's AS BAD as you think. Please don't watch the video.

🤬🤬🤮🤮
Look forward to getting real news... CNN already spinning this
I’ve been praying hard 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Took the words right out of my mouth. Disgusting. Hope he recovers but the video looked bad.
I just read the shot came from 200 yards away. So a rifle, and that’s not a good sign.
Me too
