This young evangelical guy is one of the most popular man in the US. Many americans respect him.
He said Joe Biden was an illegitimate President because Trump won the 2020 US Presidential Election.
He had no issue when JD Vance falsely accused Haitians in Ohio of eating cats and dogs. It didn’t bother him at all that these people received death threats.
He praised Trump for sending people with no criminal records to prison in South America (1) (2)
He said the US had wonderful gun laws that shouldn’t change. He thinks Canadian gun laws are silly.

I don’t condone violence or murder. But I’m not going to cry either. Sorry.
I will not celebrate violence. I will not celebrate murder. It’s wrong.
I’m sure he loved his wife. He loved his church. He loved his kids.
But this very same man had no issue with throwing men with no criminal records in horrific south american prisons. Men who simply wanted a better life.
He had no issue with spreading lies about election results, even if the result was violence.
He had no issue with lying about Haitians eating pets, even if they received countless death threats.
He believed Canadian gun laws were silly, any angry man should be able to easily purchase guns.
I don’t want to sound like a horrible monster, but it’s hard for me to feel empathy.
I celebrate because he tried to erase me and i outlived him.
We’re not supposed to cheer the death of those that cheer on the death of tens of thousands of children? The guy was a zionist through and through and the world is better off with one less. Himmler had a family too you know…
He found his church to be a convenient venue for his hate speech.
“I can’t stand the word empathy actually. I think empathy is a made-up, New Age term that — it does a lot of damage, but it is very effective when it comes to politics,” - Charlie Kirk
That cannot be a real quote Jesus Christ
And yet here we are: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A54Hkn0vcBY
There’s a concerted conservative effort to make empathy a bad thing. Research it. There are many conservative pundits trying to portray empathy as bad.
I know that’s how they act, just hearing in such plain words is shocking. Who the fuck hears that and agrees? Cult.
Do you have two and half hours to spare? Here’s an excellent video by Lindsay Ellis about the same topic.

Yup, it is among the ridiculous (and now somewhat ironic) things he said.

I will in fact celebrate his death. We got here because we allowed tolerance to go WAY too far. Shame needs to make a comeback and if you actively advocate against other people being treated with basic decency, then your death deserves no decency itself. Respect is a two way street - a social contract. You break that and no one owes you shit.
Yup, cheers!!
I mean, I feel sorry for his kids. They didn’t choose this life. But I would have felt sorry for them even if he didn’t get shot.
He chose his lifestyle. He upset a lot of people and actively defended gun violence. And that did him in.
So it goes.
"Laws are threats made by the dominant socioeconomic-ethnic group in a given nation. It’s just the promise of violence that’s enacted and the police are basically an occupying army.” - Brennan Lee Mulligan
I always upvote Brennan.
there’s no need to celebrate his death. it’s enough merely to acknowledge the fact that the world is a better place without him, however it happened.
Who not both?
(But in Spanish, I’m short of time - sorry.)
¿Porque no los dos?
por qué no los dos?
I’m not saying you can’t. I’m just saying it isn’t necessary. doesn’t mean it might not feel good, what do I know
This is the way.
