Nope. Haven’t heard of it. And I disagree about the volume issue. It’s hard for me to take any complaint about political violence seriously if one is to whitewash J6. That set a very bad precedent. Political violence is all wrong - every bit of it - and we can’t be selective or dismissive of any of it. It’s time to stop keeping score and put an end to all of this madness.

It’s no different from what Trump does and has been doing, which of course doesn’t make it right. That lovely July 4 message sums it up. All of it has to stop. Who is they? And was Minnesota wrong, too? Let’s not be selective about hyperbole and outrage here. In any event, what’s your solution for this?

If this implies that Minnesota wasn’t wrong then you’re just as bad as the Twitter goofs you’re worried about. This obviously is a bigger story than Minnesota because Kirk had a national profile and this assassination was stark and dramatic and also captured on film. It is a much bigger story than Minnesota. But that doesn’t mean that it’s a greater tragedy than what happened there. Both are equally awful.

Actually I have not. But even then, what does it matter? It’s an abhorrent act that unfortunately is not altogether isolated. Political violence is growing. It all has to stop, no matter who does it. J6 was wrong, Minnesota was wrong, this is wrong and frankly horrifying. I’m sure there’s more I missed. It’s all too much, and both sides are responsible.

Do you disagree that all of this has to stop? And, while there are instigators on both sides, in this forum it's fairly clear that there is more instigation on the right side of the aisle. So it's natural that the responses apply to those contentions.

Irrespective of the affiliation, he was a pretty socially conservative guy. Not that it really matters. You're right about the rejoicing, largely because Kirk was a more public figure. It's all wrong and it all has to stop. Again, you paint with a broad brush. And you downplay the Minnesota point. Didn't that guy target a whole bunch of Democrats? Where's the outrage about that? If we're really going to fix this, we can't have this selective anger. It's all wrong or none of it is wrong. And, to be clear, all of this BS is wrong.

Sadly, this is probably going to be one of those impossible paradoxes that we have in today's society. I'm going to guess that he's some whack job kid rebelling against a conservative dad in Utah, and the blame wheel will go round and round with the right blaming all "woke" and the left blaming the dad for screwing up the kid. I hope I'm wrong and the kid is just a jerk. (By definition, he is, but an "apolitical" jerk is what I'm getting at.) Lots of character by that dad, that's for sure. I don't know if I could do it.

As far as I know, anti-LGBTQ and anti-abortion. 2024 GOP primary voter, which I mention only because I suspect you're going to get into the Twitter trash about alleged "leftism." The point remains that what happened to Kirk was abhorrent, and what happened to those people in Minnesota is equally abhorrent. Let's not pretend that all of this nonsense is a one way street, and that we don't all have to work together to clean it up. None of this is remotely acceptable, and we all have to do our part to stop it.

I believe you said the nurse hates "someone." You're worried about the nurse projecting her views of an entirely different person to you in violation of the law and whatever moral responsibility she might have. I'm concerned that, taken to a logical extreme, your projection makes it pretty tough for anyone to trust one another. What about those Minnesota lawmakers? Not that it remotely justifies anything here. Point is, people on both sides are wrong, and it all has to stop.

Charlie Kirk shot in Utah (Pronounced Dead)
SectionC3 replied to Walking Tall's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
What's your point? You're trying to turn a common phrase into something it's not. If I had said something like "out of the tent," then I would agree with what otherwise are your continued efforts to gaslight and to mislead. But I didn't. And your continued efforts to twist, and to contort, and to mislead are part of the problem. -

Wrong again. "Off the stage" doesn't come remotely close to "murder." Keep on gaslighting.
