Unbelievable and tragic. Whatever you think about his opinions or politics he exemplified the philosophy of speaking politely and respectfully with those who disagree.

That isn't just a virtue, it is the essential structure of democracy. It is the mechanism by which democracy must function.

Assassinations have happened before but this is another terrible moment in American history. Endorsement of peaceful speech and nonviolence must be seen to be more viable than using intimidation and violence. Otherwise the structure of governance will lose credibility and power.

If you hated Charlie Kirk's ideas that was and is your right - but today you have a moral obligation to honor his contribution to free speech and Socratic dialogue. Speaking up in defense of the life and rights of those you abhor is the best evidence of integrity and your belief in democratic institutions.

He said and I quote last week “If I had a choice between removing Donald Trump from the planet or every predator and rapist, I would choose Trump”


But from that point of view, wouldn’t removing every predator and rapist also remove Donald Trump? What an idiot.

This is a radicalization moment for me. I now am 100% certain we cannot find common ground with the left. They have no place in a civilized society and cannot handle the freedoms given to them.


This is how you become the very thing you’re standing against in this thread. If you go this path, you lose the civility that is needed.

At the level of dumb passively aggressively justifying this killing. What did you think I meant?

So what is the solution? Charlie tried conversation and they killed him.

Had to step away for a bit so I’m unfamiliar with this. Is there really video of this?

Why should they be protected from "debate"?


That's a very good point. Conversely, we don't seem to value classical education anymore and thus we have people who are unprepared on how to understand arguments, let alone win them.

This reeks of a professional hit. Perfect shot and clean getaway.

In all honesty, people like Kirk were the ones attempting to bridge the gap by reaching out to the opposition to debate and discuss.

It is apparent that one side isn’t even willing to do that.

What method to bridge the gap is left?

yes two videos. One of a guy prone on a roof and another angle of same guy running away on roof after shots. Looks to be in all black but hard to tell
