King originally posted on X about Kirk in the wake of his assassination: “He advocated stoning gays to death. Just sayin.'” The tweet was in reaction to post by Fox News host Jesse Watters writing, “Charlie Kirk was not a controversial or polarizing figure. Charlie was a Patriot.”




Seems like all of Kirk's "hateful rhetoric" that Leftists bring up was either taken way out of context or completely made up.

Believe people when they spew the garbage, not when the get called out on it and have to "apologize".

This is the craziest thing to me. They were completely wrong about every criticism they had of him.

I really believe the devil was behind this and I never in a million years thought I would be saying that.

This is his typical behavior but the situation is too big for it to be swept under the rug. Same as courtyard brewery guy

Instead of apologizing after he's gone, why didn't that stupid fricking mutt speak honestly before one of his kind acted upon the lies?

I don't like Stephen King and think he's a pretty bad person

But at least he did this in a not-mealy mouthed fashion

Huh? The entire point of the thread is that he didn't say that and King had to apologize over it.

Sounds like he apologized and is groveling.

Being vile just comes natural to liberals.

Don’t understand how a public figure or business owner puts stuff on social media without doing at least a minimum of fact checking. At least he apologized and admitted a mistake.

He writes fiction, and makes himself sick eating nothing but Ben and Jerry’s.

if a dude comes and owns his mistakes and apologizes, then let him off.

don't understand why people need to pile on after the fact.
