I’ve managed to not see it at this point. I don’t want to because I don’t think I could unsee it. It’s the same reason I can’t watch the Charlotte train incident. I don’t need to see it to understand the enemy. Have any of you seen it and wished that you hadn’t?

It isn't something that you will forget.

I have no interest in seeing stuff like that.

I haven't seen it and have no desire to...I know what it would look like.

Same for that poor woman that was stabbed to death. I don't need to see that either.

I watched it. Wish I hadn't.
It's awful.

I have not. I was a great admirer of Charlie's, and I want to remember him as he lived-courageous, compassionate and spiritual, -not in his dying moments. I couldn't take seeing that.

It’s a catch 22. I’m not regretful but it’s just so emotional.

Yeah I have no interest. Some things can’t be unseen, and this seems like one of them.

I saw both and have conflicting feelings as to whether it was a good idea or not. On net, I think that it’s warranted to understand the depths of the evil we are up against. Charlie’s death is way more graphic and fills you with rage, while the Charlotte stabbing is more of a slow motion event and leaves you more sad than anything.

I have not and don’t want to. No reason to at this point.

I wish I hadn't seen it honestly. It's so brutal that you do think it's AI enhanced at first. I personally think it was probably instant despite the initial reports.

I've seen people die not something I want to see again. Especially someone I really appreciated them the things that they were doing. Charlie Kirk was someone whom I respected. Those I know that knew him felt the sincerity spoke well of him before he died

We were discussing this exact thing this morning when out for a walk.

Things like this are not something we are designed to see in first person and process well. First person accounts of such violence used to be limited to the people who were physically present, and that was horrible enough, but now that trauma is cast all over anyone who will click on it. Lots of damage that, like you said, can't be undone.

I clicked on a link not really knowing what it would show, no warning provided by the description in the link title. Wished I hadn't. Can't get it out of my head now.

Me. I was on the golf course the whole afternoon so I was able to not see it.

Don’t need that shite in my eyes.
