What a damn shame...

[Grogan]

This wonderful human being, Charlie Kirk, of Turning Point USA that sought to educate American youth to be good, white, Republican Christian patriarchs has been shot in the neck, and killed while selflessly and bravely going to college campuses, even though he knew he wasn't wanted. He even helped put Donald Trump in office, to save America.

The dear man did meet his end with brutal irony:

I don't think I ever heard of him before I heard the report of his assassination.

Last moments: Kirk was shot while answering a question from an audience member about mass shootings

Well, the sniveling little shit was a popular christofascist propagandist, and indoctrinator since he was 18

DA posted the questions he was responding to (on FB):

It's always got to be culture war with him and his ilk. I'm sure the audience member was about to point out that it's a small number compared to the total number of "mass shooters" (now, that's defined rather loosely, I think if someone shoots two people).

It really does seem like he got to eat his own words, though. The "acceptable cost" of all the school shootings etc., as well as him previously grousing about "empathy". He said he didn't like that word, it's "dangerous" to society, sort of thing. That's some Ayn Rand'ian bullshit there.

Here's a good summary of examples of the kind of ideology this man pushed:

Yeah that's pretty bad. It's sad that he had so many supporters who agree with all of that.
