    “Everybody in the thread just did what Kirk asked them to…” And you dont see the problem there?

    As for the world being a better place… I highly doubt it, since hes now going to be a rallying cry for action against “the left”. Hes a martyr now, a symbol that right wing lunatics while cling to as they march down the streets demanding Trans people are butchered, immigrants, legal and otherwise, are shot in the streets. “We need you, Trump, to do a third term. Its a civil war out here, dont you know?” will be next.

    Shooting people is never, ever, your first resort in silencing a voice. Facts and words are. Violence only ever causes more violence. Someone out there today, he never hurt anyone, is going to pay the price for what happened to Kirk. You know its true. You all do. Yet youre all still all over social media happy, and cheering, and back slapping.

    In the famous of words of John Wick… “Consequences.”

      Yup because negative consequences weren’t a thing before the guy was shot

      since hes now going to be a rallying cry for action against “the left”.

      If you haven’t heard any before, you might want to check with your ENT physician.

      They were going to make up an excuse anyways. At least this way, they actually take a loss for it. If you do not understand why this was a good thing, you’re far too innocent to understand the shitty world kirk and his ilk are trying to create.
