Charlie Kirk shot

Good to see Security doing their Job...


And good thing there is nothing else tragic remembered in the next 24 hours...

I'm calling it now, everyone's favorite Jew Troll is next in the Deadpool!

I actually thought of this quickly after hearing of Kirk being shot.

"If I were Ben Shapiro, I'd be really worried right now, because I could totally see this happening to him, too."


Shapiro might be safer, though, because he is a mainstream conservative, and rarely pushes extremely provocative positions. I think most of the left regards him as an annoying nerd, rather than someone they believe is a major threat.

The "Mossad killed Charlie Kirk" narrative is stupid, for many reasons.

Kirk was one of the few alt-right influencers who refused to jump on the anti-Israel train.

If Mossad wanted to send a message, they'd have killed Nick Fuentes or Candace Owens. Kirk wouldn't have been the target.


I do think it's possible, though not likely, that Kirk was killed a a right wing fanatic who was mad at him for not joining the anti-Israel mob.

It was most likely a lone wolf, white male leftist.


That "Omar" guy on Twitter is an interesting angle. Shortly after the shooting, he changed his account's name (so the current person on that account is someone different, as it since got grabbed). Could have been a coincidence, but the guy warning that something big would happen during Kirk's visit definitely warrants a hard look at him. However, I have my doubts. After committing such an act, would he really quickly login to X and change his account name? Why not do that before the shooting? Why post it at all, if it's not a suicide mission (which apparently it wasn't)?


The shooting occurred when Kirk was discussing the phenomenon of trans being involved in mass shootings. He was debating with an audience member during Q&A. The person debating Charlie asked, "Do you know how many transgender Americans have been mass shooters over the past 10 years?", and Kirk responded, "Too many." The person then asked, "Do you know how many mass shooters there have been in America over the last 10 years?" Kirk responded, "Counting or not counting gang violence?", and right at that point he was shot dead.

It seems to me that this timing wasn't coincidental -- that someone waiting for Kirk to discuss gun violence before shooting him right at that moment.

Boz, please stop clogging the thread with trolling of sonatine.

If you wish to bring up issues with sonatine, start a separate thread and do it.

I deleted most of these posts because they were low quality and just saying the same thing over and over.

At first I imagined it would be a Congressional baseball shooter type, but then I later changed my mind because it occurred on a college campus.

Probably not long now until we find out if this is a deranged lib or a deranged right-wing Israel-hater. I'm guessing it was one of the two.

So I have a paid subscription to what's generally a sports journalism site, but branches off into popular culture and politics. I pay the lowest price, read-only, but another x amount a year for commenting privilege.

The comments on politics blogs blow my mind.

People wishing for a Sirhan Sirhan Jr, every possible way wishing for Trump to die. Cheering on Luigi.

Strange times.

I still identify as a Bill Maher type liberal. I dont remember me and my other 20-somethings in 2004 hoping Bush got shot. That was what crazy regressionists did.

Who knows....

i found it strange too that Kirk was shot while answering a question about mass shootings too... it is almost like the guy asking the question knew it was coming... ( the deadly shot and was almost taunting him... like take this mother fucker )... if i was FBI... i would want to talk to that person asking that question...

This comes as a result of over a decade of, "It's okay to riot and commit acts of violence if you are doing it in the name of social justice."

Recall the 1992 LA riots. They were clearly condemned by figures on all sides. Only the most left of leftist wackos were cheering on the riots and the rioters.

The riots from 2014 to present have been different. They've been more compared to "revolution" by Dems and the media, and excused as just passionate people trying to make change happen. I even read ridiculous views from otherwise intelligent people saying that it's okay to destroy small businesses during a riot because "they have insurance".

If you normalize destruction and violence when someone believes a cause to be "important", then this is what happens.


You simply cannot have a civilized society if there is no respect for rule of law, and where people are lauded for major crimes if the cause they're championing is seen as valid.

Your bag of shit friend, sonatine is jubilant that a conservative influencer was murdered today.

Gun control and mass shootings were in the news before today, its not unlikely this question has been asked of many relevant speakers.


Also: Sept 11th here.
