And now we have Pam Blondi coming out and saying that the Progressive NC DA cannot handle the justice that needs to be served in the murder case of Iryna Zarutska (and yes, of course it does need to be served - that's a DA's job). But she's implying that Progressives (code word for Democrats) can't serve justice and are weak. There is no need for the US AG to be involved in a case of local jurisdiction - This is not a federal hate crime or terrorist act. She should continue to stay out of the limelight and figure out how she's gonna do the Epstein Files reveal.

Again, this is reinforcing polarization around a horrible local murder when it's not necessary.

Live by the sword, die by the sword.

Pretty sure Charlie Kirk never killed anyone.

I'm sorry you're having a bad week, but maybe political message boards aren't the place to work those things out. Go to church or wherever you might go to talk shop (sorry if the issue is work, I use talk shop in the loose and not literal sense). I feel bad for his family and friends that they are going through this, but beyond that, the levels of empathy are pretty low.

This is icing on a pretty bad week - good for you getting your jollies on some evil character assassinated in your timeline cretin.

I'll for you and that your week gets better. I'm not getting my jollies. Some here are not as sympathetic, I get it, but you make too many broad generalizations IMO.

 

[SportsingHard]

Fucking despicable reporting.

It admittedly took me decades to understand why conservatives complained about the "mainstream" media, but those days are long over. It's mostly just extremist propaganda.

Brother, he wasn't in jail because of the Progressive judge. Couldn't they see he was a fuckin loon? She fled war torn Ukraine only to come face to face (sort of) with America's degenerates. Pretty sure she would have rather ate a Putin missile and had a quick death.

 

[Irish#1]

You see, you're doing just what Bishop said we should stop doing - Take the blinders off and realize your intolerant ilk are the problem - WITF are you talking about?

I'm happy to agree with you if you want to post about some left-leaning crazy talking about how some group of conservatives are rapists, terrorists and child molesters because that's what Stephen Miller spouts out of his mouth - that that's what brown people are and that Democrats support these ungodly acts.

You see I'm calling out a terrible human being in Stephen Miller - I don't care if he's black or white or Red or Blue - It's abhorrent.

You immediately jump to: Conservatives and Independents are not threatened by words like the emotional, lunatic, heavily medicated left.

Not very emotionally intelligent IMO my friend...

And there we have it. Yeah Charlie Kirk was killed, but Stephen Miller is a POS.

 

[GATTACA!]

And there we have it. Yeah Charlie Kirk was killed, but Stephen Miller is a POS.

And Tim Walz, George Floyd, and some nameless judge in North Carolina. Want to keep up with the whole thread or continue your selective outrage?

Irish#1, you're too damn black and white political You can't separate Charlie Kirk - who yes, I don't agree with, but as far as I can tell, has never wholesale called an entire people rapists, terrorists, and child molesters, and that the opposing party supports those acts, because that's what Stephen Miller does. It's all an act and you notice that I'm calling out his behavior and its polarizing and incendiary effects on US culture and society, not the man (or as you state, POS) behind the behavior.

Charlie Kirk did not spew hate to that level so they're not the same and shouldn't be viewed the same.

Again, you guys on the right can't filter anything - Everything is you Dem, you bad... You conservative and/or Maga, you da best!

Come on man

Not outraged but I feel bad for him, his family and the sad state we are in. It’s typical for you and others to change the narrative instead of at least addressing what happened, but it’s what I’ve come to expect from you.

I guess I’m too stupid to understand why you wanted to change the topic or deflect to someone else.

"I think empathy is a made up New Age term that has done a lot of damage". — Charlie Kirk

Just so I can understand this better, the person who told everyone to accept school shootings as a way of life, is a decent Christian man?

Don't think anyone would find much support if they told Kirk's family "Ehhh, just a way of life!".

Thoughts and prayers to the Kirk household.

Yeah and I also find her language highly ironic... Iryna Zarutska who with her mother fled to our country for protection from Ukraine.

So she, her brother, sister, and mother fled Ukraine (literally living in a bomb shelter) and immigrated as war refugees it sounds like. And Iryna received a work permit so she could begin working at a local pizza restaurant.

How do you think hard-working immigrants with legal papers or working towards legal status also fleeing from war and terror in their native Latin American countries and in Mexico feel as they're still getting deported. Something stinks there.

All refugees running from terror and war should be welcomed into the US within reason and with the right vetting.

 

[Tejas]

No doubt. She was welcomed in and met our worst. I'm sure any immigrant will take deportation over a knife in the neck. I'd rather hard working immigrants be heavily vetted and fast tracked to citizenship. Deport the others and also any shitty Americans.

This was as part of a discussion regarding reducing school shootings. Callously talking about innocent children being slaughtered as if it's some sort of transaction is wild. For someone as devout as himself to the cause, I wonder if he would change his stance given the outcome. Making him a martyr is not how you change opinions.

"I think it's worth it. I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights."

Charlie Kirk once said some gun deaths 'worth it' in order to have Second Amendment

The Turning Point USA CEO and co-founder made the remarks while answering a question during a TPUSA Faith event in April 2023.

[Tejas]

Gun deaths does not equal school shootings. I believe in the 2nd amendment.

What's to stop someone from grabbing a knife, mowing people down in a car?

I think it's more to do with the moral decay of society. People don't give a fuck anymore.

Bringing up the Minnesota lawmakers isn’t changing the subject. RDU used that as an opportunity to shit talk Walz and justify Trump’s inaction after that equally unacceptable tragedy.

What else is there to say about what happened? It was terrible and shouldn’t happen The party in power, which Kirk was a mouthpiece for, has over and over again decided that the consequences for mostly unfettered access to guns are acceptable.

If we’re not willing to change anything after school children are routinely murdered in their schools, churches, and libraries sorry but I have next to zero sympathy for a piece of shit grifter who argued for this status quo.

Zero lefties are allowed to own guns. Cha Cha Changes!

No, but he disagreed with people on this board politically so I guess he deserved to be shot to death in front of his wife and children. At least that's what I'm picking up.

This thread exploded exactly how I thought it would. Carry on.

Does "live by the sword, die by the sword" carry some cryptic meaning known only to you?

Ok, but that's the line of thinking Kirk was talking about when he was making that claim. He was the one who made the connection. I'm not just making this up.

So then, how do you reduce? Very simple. People say, oh, Charlie, how do you stop school shootings? I don't know. How did we stop shootings at baseball games? Because we have armed guards outside of baseball games. That's why.

Well, if that lunatic had a knife instead of a gun it would do a bit less damage from that same distance.

2 Democratic lawmakers and their dog are gunned down in their homes by a MAGA lunatic. Trump is radio silent. Doesn't attend the funeral, make a statement about the unacceptability of the actions, call their governor, or lower the federal flags.

A MAGA political commentator is killed by a lunatic. Trump is on the phone with the Utah governor within 90 minutes, made a statement on social media, and has already ordered all federal flag be set to half mast.

Any IE MAGA members want to comment on Trumps handling of these two events?

 

[Tejas]

I didn't get that when I listened to it, I think he pivoted to general gun deaths.

Knife guy isn't going to kill Charlie Kirk from 200 yards, he's going to stab 10 conservatives standing near him.

They took the guns in the UK. Now they have Knife Crime Awareness Week.

 

[Bane]

Please quote anyone that has said that. Oh wait you can't.

Yeah, because y'all hide in little passive aggressive insinuations, dredging up quotes of his about the Second Amendment as if it really matters. The man was murdered.

It was wrong to not attend the funerals and make a statement. That's a pussy way to handle it.
