Here’s my bottom line. The hate has to stop. Both sides. This guy didn’t deserve to die but gun violence needs to stop. The hateful rhetoric against other citizens needs to stop. We need to focus on why we are pitted against each other - the evangelical Christian and I have way more in common than either of us have in common with the corporatists and the billionaires. We need reform up and down across so many areas. We should not let them turn us against ourselves so that they can make our lives miserable while taking from society for their own personal benefit. It’s right there to see. I wish I wish somehow we could figure this crap out. 

See goddamnit you post some shit like this and I am 100% in agreement.

I took a one wipe shit today. Seriously, fiber is your friend. you need to do an additional wipe to validate but if it's all cleaned up in one wipe it's a single wipe dump. 

Eat plenty of plant based foods to keep your butthole clean. 

I eat a lot of fiber and this has not been my experience. Bidet for the win.

Nobody on either side justified the murder of children. The right didn’t say FAFO to the kids or their families.  

Um, Greg "It could have been worse" Abbott would like to have a word.

Is "Bidet" French for how you say "Manservant you hired from near the dumpsters behind the Hancock HEB to wipe your ass"?

Correct.  Give it a day and a half.

No, it'll be longer than that, and somebody will probably try to keep it in the news for a bit.  When/if they catch the shooter, then it will start to die down.

Which takes me back to this - after watching the available videos a few times..

Given that the tent/canopy he was sitting under was not very tall and where he was located, that was a somewhat of a flatter trajectory than I originally thought - don't get me wrong, there was definitely some elevation there (and the campus has some dips and elevations around there, plus the building), but not as much as I would have thought to get in under the tent.  And I definitely think they were shooting center mass and the elevation/angle of Kirk (and slight movement, there was some) meant it hit his neck. 

Edit: Just saw the video from the side view - he might have had a higher elevation than I thought.  If he shot from the side, a more difficult shot, but he was shooting at his torso.

The video of the shooter seems odd, because for somebody who pulled this off, it doesn't seem like they would have exposed themselves to potential discovery.  Unless he was sure of himself and had rehearsed it and got in place and fired in literal seconds and then took off.  The fact that they got away on a somewhat crowded campus meant they were probably moving while Kirk was still starting to fall over.

They better catch the guy.  There's no way somebody like that is going to have a list with only Charlie Kirk's name on it. 

I'm hating FB and all of the bullshit conspiracy theories about shadowy groups.  This dude had to be a lone wolf, because the more people involved, the more likely somebody panics or fucks up.

A horrific instant perpetrated by a confused and deranged reactionary caught in high definition could be the greatest tool for ratcheting down the frenzy of resentment in this hate-fueled engine of conjured cultural angst. The digital barrage wouldn't stand a chance if the stark reduction of media corners and "content" could momentarily be placed aside in favor of sympathy and revulsion of such senseless violence. The clarity of that fork in the road is so obvious that it seemingly taunts everyone mired in their identity rut of ideology. It's right there. But failure flirting with greatness is a common literary trope. And here it is. But doesn't it still feel so hopeless? That current, strident but often imaginary, runs opposed in two lanes that each run so swift everyone forgets it's ultimately a whirlpool of shared experience. That person who briefly hesitated at the door of the gas station to give the door an additional flick of the wrist so you could catch it. They might have represented everything you despise but you didn't know it in that momentary glimpse of effortless consideration. The list of people who deserve to have their carotid artery severed in sunlight is a short one. And that list does exist. But I don't believe this young man deserved to be on that list. I would do my best to deter anyone who disagrees with that from making a list.

All I was saying is Charlie Kirk could have stayed home, been a good productive dad and practiced real Christian beliefs

And that’s the thing troph. These people don’t want change. They don’t want civility, except for whatever fucking transgressions they are carrying out.

Yeah, fuck that guy for the heinous transgression of..... touring college campuses and inviting people to literally talk with him.

Can't imagine something more uncivil than calmly challenging people on their views.

Charlie Kirk: “Good morning, young college student. Could I interest you in some racism and bigotry over a cup of coffee?”
