Charlie Kirk assassinated at an event in Utah (by a 22 YO groyper)

He is also someone who decided to assassinate someone. The dude had problems that the ACT doesn't really measure. There are plenty of people with 4.0 GPAs who aren't geniuses, and there are plenty of geniuses who do really stupid shit. -

Both, to protect the roommate, if he had any prior knowledge. -

Ffs, I’ll play. I assume you think that the shooter wrote it to avoid any suggestion that the roommate had prior knowledge. Write it out in clear enough language that there could be no suggestion of secret codes. Make sure a jury understands it clearly and has reasonable doubt. I think it’s certainly a possibility. But do you really need to tease it out for 10 hours? -

Does it actually change anything for you? In one scenario, he is someone who has lost step with reality and apparently into furries and shit. In the other scenario, he is someone who lost step with reality and is angry about the vitriol that Kirk and others spout. To me, it's the losing step with reality part that is the defining characteristic. I could see more conspiracy theories if 1) the Robinson wasn't still above ground; 2) if the roommate wasn't still above ground. As it is, the simplest explanation is that someone who hated Charlie Kirk killed him, for many of the same reasons I really disliked Charlie Kirk. -

My favorite part of the Bible is Ecclesiastes. Has nothing to do with Jesus and not much to do with God, which works for this agnostic wanderer. "All is vanity and vexation of the soul." I love it when you pick up an ancient piece of philosophy and it hits like it could have been written yesterday. We meatpuppets have been dealing with this shit a long time. (There is nothing new under the sun.) It ends with (paraphrasing) "just do your job and don't worry too much about it." Apparently it was added later, but I can get down with that. -

Yeah. "I left no evidence, except this sentence I am currently texting. And all the other ones." -

Ok. So he debated well. Did ever say anything you'd put on a poster? Anything that would resonate with a non-Christian or a non-conservative? -

Just skimming the threads here, but did Kirk ever say anything remotely inspirational? I get the algorithm has put me in a liberal bubble, but I'm not seeing a whole lot exultation of what Kirk actually did or said. Anyone seeing any high falutin memes out of the mourners? It appears to me that he existed more as a symbol than anything else. Maybe the conservatives here can post some of his most inspirational stuff; my guess is that it's a bunch us vs. them white grievance victimhood shit. -
Not too surprisingly, Holgorsen is a good coach. In the last two weeks, the Nebraska has demonstrated they can execute his offense well against (vastly) inferior talent. No punts in two weeks. One turnover. No negative yardage plays last week. Pretty clean penalty-wise. Sure, it's against shitty competition, but it's been a while since Nebraska has executed well against shitty competition. To me, the biggest positive note is that the second team has come and continued to operate at a high level. It's a well coached squad, up and down the chart, and that is a credit to Holgorsen. The big questions are 1)how much of a talent-delta is there to the top 25 or top 10, 2) how well the offense can execute against better d-lines and blitz packages. Defensively, the missed tackles are my biggest concern. The team seems to swarm to the ball well, but missing tackles against will kill them against talented backs and mobile quarterbacks. I don't know if Nebraska should beat Michigan, but I would take the over. (UM is a 2.5 point favorite with a 45.5 point o/u.)

I did have a post on Facebook that I was not going to mourn or celebrate Kirk - that he was just an average dweeb who will be replaced easily. I thought about taking it down. Then I thought if that kind of post gets me fired in September 2025, it's very unlikely I was going to make it through this Presidency anyway. I wouldn't be compromising to save my job, just a few months of it.

At that distance, he would have just beat the shit out of him. -

See Hot Dog's post. The house was owned by Tyler Robinson at the time. Unless Tyler is a jr, or he bought the house when he was 16, or someone bought him the house, that ain't him. -

"I think very good." He even compliments himself when asked if he is grieving. "Nobody has mourned as good as I have. Very efficient. Many are saying I went through the all stages in record time. My Uncle went to MIT."- 5077 replies

2 x 24 =48. Or 2+2 =4, 4+4 = 8. Math geek, bordering on obsessive-compulsive. Or, more likely, just more random shit to squint at while trying to find meaning.
