he wasn’t killed because he was Christian and a republican, anyone can be Christian even those who are democrats, or non political. He was killed because of the lack of gun control this country has. If we had better gun laws this wouldn’t have happened.

He said empathy was a damaging, new age term. Personally my God was compassionate and cared for all people no matter what. I don’t celebrate his death bc it is sad, especially for his family, but those are not Christian values.

ur separating the issues and that’s the issue. the problem is that MANY ppl are killed for who they are/what they believe. the issue is that it’s only become a debate among everyone bc a christian right wing white man died, and not the tons of minorities that die everyday everywhere for the same reasons.

I would care about an influential person dying regardless of color. Martin Luther King being shot was an atrocious crime against a peaceful, powerful man. Now I know Charlie Kirk isn’t comparable to MLK or Malcom X but just as an example of prominent speakers who were shot for having a message and spreading it well.

He said that empathy is a new age concept and a plague amongst our society for one, he makes disses at black people all the time like when he said “if I was getting flown by a black pilot boy do I hope he’s qualified” implying that because he’s black he’s not qualified, he said that the civil rights act was a mistake, the list goes on and on and on.

There are more guns than people here. There have been for a long, long time. We didn’t have this issue a few decades ago, and before that. But if you take up all the guns, some people will keep them anyway. Some people will 3D print them. Some people will buy what they need to make them at Home Depot. All of that is possible. And a lot of criminals will just use knives, bats, learn to make pipe bombs… take the tool away, people will use a different tool.

Kirk said he preferred sympathy over empathy, and later elaborated “The same people who lecture you about 'empathy' have none for the soldiers discharged for the jab, the children mutilated by Big Medicine, or the lives devastated by fentanyl pouring over the border. Spare me your fake outrage, your fake science, and your fake moral superiority.” You can agree with him or not, but context is important and you should seek it out vs. regurgitating shortened sound bites.

Which is why it keeps being trotted out as the solution, but also why the underlying problems of poverty, culture, and mental health will remain and the same crimes will continue. Throw in the reason why the 2nd Amendment exists… not for hunting but for protecting citizens from their government, and everyone should be in favor of the 2nd.

Because we have more than 300,000 guns here and the “very easy access” doesn’t go away, even with confiscation (criminals and even otherwise law-abiding citizens won’t give them up). Countries with stricter gun control and fewer mass shootings don’t have that massive starting point. They also still have murder, mass murder, and assassination because they didn’t seek to address the underlying reasons this shit occurs.

Why will it never be? Why couldn’t we cut some of the unnecessary funding (arming Israel) and invest in the citizens? Why does the government keep padding the 1% pockets instead of solving the problem at the root of the issue. This country is broken :(

Anonymous #11 1w

The country is broken, but even if you take 100% of the wealth in America and divide it evenly across all citizens, everyone gets less than $500k. Taking the money out of the Israel fund? Yes. We shouldn’t be giving money away to foreign countries, at all. But if you think that will make a difference in this situation? It won’t. Solving the problems at the root of the issue won’t just be solved by government, either.

Murder is something that will always exist. Ted Bundy and Jeffery Dahmer didn’t use guns. The point is that we can make an attempt to reduce mass shootings by making guns, especially assault rifles, more difficult to access

Why, in a time period where few have trust for the government and what it’s doing, would anyone want to give up their guns? Isn’t that the last line of defense the people who wrote the Constitution designed? The right worries about commies. The left worries about fascists. The smallest, weakest person is equal to the largest, strongest with a gun and pretty much no other weapon. Seems dumb all the way around.

Anonymous #29 1w

Why especially “assault rifles”? 80% of mass shootings occur with a handgun. Why not those instead? Are you even familiar with the rate of fire or the type of gun that killed Charlie Kirk? Or are you spouting off from emotion instead of researching fact?

I appreciate the context, it feels so easy to catch just a sound bite and nothing else these days. But please dont throw back insults, I get where you’re coming from when you say fake moral superiority. That has become something of a habit for the Democratic Party, but at the same time they’re simply voicing there constitutional right to speech with conviction. the same thing Charlie did. You may disagree on solutions but we all agree every day Americans are being hurt by politics.

It wouldn’t stop crime. It would stop the majority of child deaths related to firearms, because generally those are not caused by thugs in ski masks, but rather children who stole parents’ weapons or accidentally were struck by a bullet that went off in the home

But with each crime or drug bust where an illegal gun is present that gun would be seized. Data shows this eventually gets most illegal guns in a country. Most mass shooters are mentally ill, a mentally ill person having a break down is not going to know how to get in contact with the black market. I don’t think you understand how difficult it is to get in contact with an illegal arms dealer
