Just curious - did anyone get fired for applauding when Jeff Doucet was murdered?

Social media didn’t exist then, so I doubt it.

That gif is the tits!

There were probably lib boomers sad for the pedophile back then who would have loved to tell us all about it if facebook was a thing.

You mean an event that happened over 40 years ago when a lot of folks were still using rotary phones and a video camcorder was the size of an American Tourister suitcase?

Plauché was initially charged with second-degree murder, but agreed to a plea bargain in which he pleaded no contest to manslaughter. He was sentenced to seven years' suspended sentence, with five years' probation and 300 more hours of community service, which he completed in 1989

Doucet had kidnapped Plauche's 11 year old son who he (Doucet) had been molesting for a year, and took him to a hotel in California to continue doing so.

There's a little context for those unfamiliar or who may have forgotten.

This is a bad comparison

A man raped a young boy. Boys dad killed him
versus
Charles Kirk killed for words.

I think you just wanted to post your squirrel dragging his nuts Animated gif.

This is embarrassing. For you. To be clear.

My foot-long cellphone was blowin' up!

Seriously, I don't recall anything about this.

I know you are just joking, but it’s important that we don’t lose sight of the actual issue. There is nothing wrong with celebrating a death if the person is evil. There is nothing wrong with cancel culture if we are canceling people who are well outside of acceptable standards.

What made the recent decades of pernicious left wing cancel culture so obnoxious is that they defined “outside the pale” as anything to the right of the American political center. THAT is the issue.

Robert Redford was a dyed-in-the-wool leftist. He hated MAGA and Trump. But we didn’t cancel Robert Redford and we don’t celebrate his death. His views were wrongheaded, imo, but they were reasonable views.

BTW Hubba, I’m on the Delta direct from NOLA to SLC. Heading to the Heber Valley. I’ll be mountain biking Dutch Hollow, by your family’s ranch, tomorrow morning.
