Why does this news sting deeper?

Because Charlie was a good dude. He mobilized the kids to vote R and gave them hope for a better America.

A part of it is because they stole a uniquely gifted man from us.

But I think deeper than that, we see in Charlie on his worst day the best of ourselves on our best day.

He was the future man. So much promise all gone. I haven’t been broken up about something like this in a long time.

If you’re conservative and Christian they want you dead.

It's another tipping point.

It follows the shock of the release of the murder in Charlotte.

Our senses are raw. We're tired of the violence from the left.

Charlie was one of us. He had a wife, a beautiful family, and he was an incredible person.

We're tired of what the left is doing to this country. We're fed up.

Charlie is now a martyr. His legscy will live on. He was a good man.

Yes sir.

It stings because it was a public execution of a relatively young family man who the left could not come close to defeating in the arena of ideas of either politics or religion. He had a ton of influence over young people and that influence was growing rapidly.

He was poised to influence national politics in America for the next several decades and possibly run for office himself. He was a massive threat to the marxists/globalists and their agenda to destroy what's left of America. He was breaking the grip the left has had for many years over young voters in this country. In essence he was a big part of the future of the America first movement and now he's gone. He's been made an example of what happens when you are a white Christian conservative, and you gain too much power and influence in this country.

Anyone hoping to be the next Charlie Kirk will think twice before stepping out into the public eye and challenging the scumbag leftists in the arena of ideas. That along with the elimination of Charlie was the goal of the people who assassinated him.

Charlie was an icon who I felt a personal connection with off of YouTube and subscribed to. It felt like I lost a friend. This was 9/11 level of sadness.

Shut up or die.
They actually mean it.
They assassinated an innocent man who was a great husband and father. He had no political power to impact their lives. They killed him simply because they were threatened by who he could have become. His calm, intelligent but kind approach to anyone willing to have an open discussion about opposing views was powerful just simply because of the man he was. He was winning the hearts of young people with kindness and truth.
They couldn’t let him live because he would not shut up.

Had he not aspired to be anything else (President?), he was poised to be the Rush Limbaugh of a new generation.

A person to guide a righteous cause with clarity and insight, but with even more universal appeal than Rush.

Now that hope, that guide, has been snuffed out, with no one in the wings to take up that throne, much as was the case with Rush.
