Threats against politicians have been common historically, and they remain common, but experts say the deadly shooting of Charlie Kirk is different.

    Political commentators should be fine

    Racist misogynistic Nazi worshippers who say they’re fine with dead kids because he likes guns, yeah, those should stay inside from now on

      Wasn’t there a school shooting in Colorado on the same day? But wait, these deaths are a price worth paying, right Charlie?

    If you make a career of heinously shitposting, you shouldn’t be shocked when at some point someone shitposts back with a bullet.

    Honestly, the timing was jaw-dropping. He finishes a racist dog whistle sentence about gun violence, and less than a second later got his carotid artery ventilated. Just… goddamn.

    Don’t do it MAGA! They’re secret liberals trying to keep your audience count low so you look unpopular! Go to the biggest, hardest to cover areas you can find! Don’t let them win! Do it without security to show how alpha you are!
