Assasination…
For mundane political thought.
I wasn’t a big “follower” of Charlie Kirk beyond viewing a few short You Tube clicks. From those instances where he debated issues on college campuses he sounded like an effective speaker making sober points on the issues of the day. In short, his views appeared to me to be pretty mundane political thought.
In an age where any view to the right of Mao Zedong is branded “far ultra extreme right” by the leftist hordes that rule over our cultural venues, it seemed to me that his views were pretty much in line with traditional conservative Republican thinking.
The establishment media will now go out of their way to suggest that “maybe he went too far” for merely articulating an objective view. We’ll also be reminded that there have been assassins with beliefs across the spectrum. While that is true, I’d bet that the leftists far outnumber garden variety conservatives in the degree of rabid bile they constantly express. Tik Tok videos are full of nutcases screeching about the “fascist,” “racist,” “homophobic” views of people who merely belive in limited government, a sane appraisal of current events, and the desire to live in a society that is stable and decent.
I usually don’t address the “gun issue.” I certainly support the second amendment but it’s not an issue that holds my attention much. The Jacobin crowd will certainly use this current act of violence to dive into their desire to see guns owned by law-abiding citizens confiscated.
Of course more than a few pundits will somehow see Charlie Kirk’s murder as a result of “Donald Trump’s rhetoric.”
…turbulent times.
