    Is it just how things are now that people pull whatever they want from a comment? I’m not talking about praising violence, I’m talking about saying that Kirk was a Nazi and he died because another Nazi adjacent moron didn’t like the particular brand of hate he was spewing. He wasn’t a good husband and father or a man just expressing his opinion freely; he was a hate and fear monger. Antagonizing Trump should be the point. But I guess you canucks are just as cowardly as most Americans.

      Canada doesn’t have the power (or really the responsibility) to deal with Trump. The Americans have to get their shit together and do that themselves. Antagonizing Trump is fine if it gains us something. In this case, it would gain us nothing, and likely cost us in the future. Doing self destructive things just for hollow “victories” that feel good is how Trump got into power in the first place. I have no interest in following that strategy.

        Blowing kirk goes beyond not antagonizing, and only emboldens them to go farther in their planned purges.

        If you can’t say anything truthful, don’t say anything at all in relation to a fucking Nazis. Because celebrating this guy’s life is about as wrong headed as you can get.
