I am so close to flinging myself off of a cliff it’s no longer funny

Oh wasn’t the surprise for me because the caption of the video as well as the message from my buddy made it clear what I was about to see.
It was genuine joy.
There is no amount of money you could pay me that could give me the ability to even slightly suppress the fact that this news made me happy. Part of it is just the fact that he was a terrorist (stochastic still counts) who pushed ultra nationalist movements, preached violence, suggested it was necessary and even said a patriot should bail out the Pelosi attacker and therefore he was the victim of everything he has been claiming for years. But another part is a couple of weeks ago a friend of mine killed themselves and in their note they sent to me and a few other people they explicitly named Charlie Kirk and a bunch of other right wing people that drove them to that point. Someone who lost their family because when they came out as non binary they got slammed with hatred quoted from Kirk and others.
I know for an actual undeniable fact that Charlie Kirk is directly responsible for the death of at least one person and he had a platform allowing him to do exactly that.
So I don’t have a single tear to shed that isn’t from laughter.
Some piece of shit shoots him
Not even remotely close.
Honestly the clips are probably easier to find on Mastodon. I’ve got a link I can send to you privately if you wish. Not like I don’t have it saved at this point.
Same. The mod of a news community here on Lemmy sent it to me like “Dude”. I started watching it and started uproariously laughing. Loud as fuck massive belly laughs.
Felt weird after like “Odd reaction to someone dying” before remembering he literally wanted this and had been stoking it for actual years. Also, contrary to popular belief, you can totally be against gun violence while finding it utterly hysterical and not wanting it to happen. Do I want lil kids to fall over and hurt themselves? God no. But I’m probably gonna laugh at the goofs. Charlie Kirk was just a massive headed goof.

Like I said.
Real real hard to dance within the lines. Unfortunately I didn’t have a whole lot of room to flesh out and fill to the edge. Had to be as zoomed in as possible.
Nah. I blame the sychopantic psychopath who has been driving hateful and violent rhetoric to begin with for years. Charlie Kirk birthed this situation. Either one of the right wing loons shot him or someone shot him who was fighting back against a dude saying “Hey, those people, they are lesser than human and should be gone”.
I’ma blame the nazi, thanks.
Thoughts and prayers.
Okay. Let me try to make a comment here that won’t get obliterated as it’s going to be real, REAL hard to dance within the lines on this.
Hokay… I obviously do not condone violence of any kind. But… literally no one can be surprised by this happening. Certainly not them. They’ve been pushing extremely violent rhetoric for years and Charlie Kirk is not exactly a subtle small face in all of that.
Astounding accuracy. I mean it wasn’t like Kirk was moving around a whole lot in the situation but still.
Huge crowd, or at least for what I would expect, but I’m surprised no one saw something.
Angle of attack is kind of surprising as well. Kirk was sat fairly low down with a covering over the top. Relatively shallow angle from what I could see in order to be able to hit him. Shot seems to have come from his right.
His right is exposed overall but does anyone know what’s actually to the left there?
And lastly, I am wondering how this is going to impact Nazis like Kirk in general. Are they going to ramp it up or step it down? Also wonder how long before people start saying it was done by some trans antifa palestinian who came to Utah from NYC via LA.
I just require cuddles and leftovers. Imagination for the rest
Do… Do you want to get fucking married?
I just wanna forget about them to be honest. Like they left stuff to last second constantly and routinely fucked me over financially, having to ask friends to cover and ruining myself in the process in other ways. They then did it again last week, forcing me to magic up $700 to cover their half of rent too and now have to find another roommate. I thought I was broke before but nooooooooooope. I just wanna cry.
That headline has to be a joke. Reveals? Reveals?!
I need to pay more attention to the communities…
Onion is starting to genuinely blur the line for me
The blood isn’t the important part of that video. It’s his arms. That shot damaged his brainstem and he went into an instant fencing response which is a sign of a traumatic brain or brainstem injury. Even if he could survive that almost hysterical amount of instant blood loss, he would never have been the same. If he would have lived at all.
