A 4.0 kid with a 34 on the ACT from an upper middle class family going to an open-admissions public school - to drop out after a semester & move back home tells me all I need to know.

Yep. Gotta do something about it. Need to do something about it for people past that formative age as well.

The thing is that the shooter didn’t kill Charlie because of what he was doing.
They killed him because of what they thought he was doing.
Look at Stephen king. He realized he was basing an opinion off of out of context clips and sound bites, and his opinion was wrong.
The irrational hate that has been festering has been sowed by people spreading this disinformation and out of context shite.
There are people out there who benefit from a divided United States. These people are creating and spreading things to make us absolutely hate one another, and make us feel isolated.
They cannot win.

She's doing well. It's hard to give a eulogy which is basically what this is. I barely made it through giving the eulogy at my dad's funeral.

That was hard to watch and very powerful at the same time. God bless here and those kids.

Lovely tribute from Ms Gina
quote:
My heart is filled with sorrow.
I had some nice dialogue with Charlie, he instantly felt like an older much wiser brother even though he was younger than me. He was always trying to include me to come speak at his events.
I don’t think he knew how hard public speaking is for me. My whole body shakes, my mind goes into survival mode & my voice quivers. I much prefer writing, fighting, acting & interviews in intimate settings. But alas, Charlie did find out how hard public speaking is for me in Vegas last year.
I had originally just wanted to support Tulsi who was doing an event with the Common Kings in Vegas. I wanted to support her & be there for her, maybe just announce her or be backstage with her. Then Turning Point got involved & before you knew it, rumors that President Trump would be speaking swirled and came true.
Of course I tried to back out once I realized they wanted me to speak. But Tulsi wasn’t having it. She gently encouraged me. So I decided to just write out my speech on paper & read it.
The night came & I had missed my spot in the speaking line up because I was back stage taking a picture with President Trump who had 100’s of people he was taking pictures with before he went on to speak.
I ran back to the stage & there were only Charlie & Tulsi left to speak before Trump would take the stage. I had the 6 pages in my hands, the lady on the stage seemed rushed & I looked at Charlie and said, “No it’s ok, I’m not good at public speaking, don’t worry about me.” He calmly looked at me & said, “Gina, they hear from me all the time, they need to hear from you. How many pages do you have?” I told him 6. The lady on the stage said, “Do you think you could keep it to 3 minutes please?” But Charlie kept eye contact with me & said, “Take my time, go out there & say what you need to say.”
He gave me so much strength in that moment, my body shaking, I went out & summed up my 6 page speech to whatever I could muster. I was so proud I did it. It was short & sweet, the pages went out the window. I wanted to do it for my hometown, in front of my family, for my country. I felt I needed to & Charlie made sure I did.
As soon as I walked behind the curtain I collapsed into Charlie’s chest. He held me for a few moments as I stabilized & then he walked out to give his speech. The lady who helped me off stage said, “oh my gosh you’re shaking!”
I went back to my seat & sat with my mom & dad who were beaming with pride, I was still shaking. People patted me on my back & gave me hugs, the whole crowd knew I was nervous but it was ok. They cheered me on louder than most of the other speakers my dad said but of course he’d say that. ?? Sure felt that way. The audience saw my vulnerability & rooted for me. That was the atmosphere of this lovely crowd of people. And that was who Charlie was. He helped me conquer something that day. And since then I have gotten better when a microphone is handed to me.
Charlie helped so many find their voices. He put the microphone in people’s hands, to be heard, to ask questions, to learn how to communicate. He was teaching us how to communicate.
I am in complete awe of his bravery. He could’ve easily just stayed comfortable & been with his wife & children right now but he saw the need of keeping dialogue going & he risked his life everytime he went out there.
He was a graceful genius with a heart for the Lord and he followed his calling.
I am so happy Charlie is with the Lord now. He truly was the best of us & without a doubt the bravest. They took his body but they cannot take his spirit. I mourn for his wife, children & loved ones with my full heart & soul. God be with them.
I am struggling with positivity as evil is rearing its ugly head. If I wasn’t so exhausted from sorrow I would be more enraged. My head is torturing me on repeat as I see Charlie shot & the blood gushing. All I can do right now is pray for justice & peace.
God bless you Charlie Kirk. We will not forget you.

God bless her. I was really surprised that two of my best my friends texted me on Wednesday that some of their kids were really upset. I had no idea Charlie was making an impact like that with suburban teens, boys and girls. I hope something positive comes out of this tragedy and it's a force multiplier for good.

Yeah my sixteen year old niece was rocked by the news - I didn't even know she knew who he was, I texted her "tell your mom Charlie Kirk has been shot" because my sister usually doesn't check her phone during the day and my sister called me saying my niece broke down the rest of the day. I made it up to her this morning by calling her to let her know the arrest was made and justice is happening. I looked Weds night and sure enough she had him, tpusa, and several others followed on IG.

I know I have seen many people on here scoff at some of the comparisons that have been made to some of our past tragedies & for some of the older generations this may not feel as impactful but Charlie was a beacon of light for millions of young people who have been constantly told that their worldviews are wrong by teachers professors media and so on for simply holding Christian/religious beliefs or those that just don't agree with the narrative being pushed.
I have to remember that Charlie was around 7 when 9/11 happened and those that are younger that follow him many were not even born so to them this is very impactful.
Sadly in this case they are also witnessing people justifying glorifying & cheering the assassination.

just finished Erika Kirk's video.
ohh man, that was a tough watch. what a powerful woman and powerful statement.
I replied to you Hateradedrink, because I'm too lazy to make two separate posts. But you knocked this one out the fricking park, well said.

The post from Miller yesterday is the best thing he's ever done IMO

There is an ideology that has steadily been growing in this country which hates everything that is good, righteous and beautiful and celebrates everything that is warped, twisted and depraved. It is an ideology at war with family and nature. It is envious, malicious, and soulless. It is an ideology that looks upon the perfect family with bitter rage while embracing the serial criminal with tender warmth. Its adherents organize constantly to tear down and destroy every mark of grace and beauty while lifting up everything monstrous and foul. It is an ideology that leads, always, inevitably and willfully, to violence — violence against those uphold order, who uphold faith, who uphold family, who uphold all that is noble and virtuous in this world. It is an ideology whose one unifying thread is the insatiable thirst for destruction.
