Wait, I thought they caught the guy (the older man), is the killer still on the loose?

the old man was innocent. There is a picture of a possible sniper.

When children and minorities are shot every day, it's a statistic

When a rich white Christian far right male who has never worked a day in his life is shot, its a national tragedy

Why did Trump order flags to be flown at half mast? It's not like he's a president or major politician who passed away or anything. Yes, I'm sure people are upset but get some perspective.

It's wild as high profile as this is that the killer is still on the loose. Are there any leads on who this person even was?
One shot from 200 yards. If they were careful and had an escape route planned, it's going to take a lot of police work and some lucky breaks to catch them.

Especially if they have no criminal history or track record of mouthing off on social media.

They are thinking politically.

How can we use this event to our advantage as propaganda against our opponents? By treating him like a national hero.

Like I am very surprised people who don't follow politics closely even know who Charlie Kirk is. He isn't that famous.
He has 5.6 million followers on Twitter. He's fairly famous. They might not be all from the U.S., but that's a large following regardless. Everyone in Maga knows him and he has conservative fans from the UK and further out.

Do we even know the shooter is a he? I noticed everyone keeps saying he but I thought literally nothing was known about the shooter? It probably was a man, but its weird that everyone just assumes it if it hasn't been proven

That's what I was thinking. It could very well be a female shooter

I mean 90-95% of all murders are done by men, so there's nothing weird about that assumption. Pretty sure it's even higher for firearm related deaths.

That's what the media and the Right are counting on, to make it seem like he was just a guy with a difference-in-opinion being assassinated for it.

Well, two immediately relevant examples is that he once said a certain amount of gun deaths were an acceptable sacrifice to not have gun control laws and that empathy was New Age nonsense

He's against civil rights, pro white supremacy, against separation and church and state, wants women to be stay at home housewives, jokes about "the left" being murdered and generally is an awful far right troll

He was an awful awful human being who contributed to great suffering in the world

Didn't deserve to be assassinationed mind you.

Video didn't bother me because it's like he entered a state of shock after the shot
The Ukrainian girl on the subway really bothers me though because she looked to be in a lot of pain before she passed away

I am finding the attempted lionization and washing of what Charlie was to be very disturbing. The media is even pushing it like he was some grand figure cruelly cut down in his prime. I've seen almost no discussion of his racism, his bigotry, the people he called friends and allies...this is troubling.

Then you have the usual suspect Trumpians calling for Democrat blood all over social media and not just the blue check grifters either, people close to and in his administration.

The same people who laughed and cheered as ICE ripped immigrant families apart are now asking you to pray for Charlies family. The only difference between his family and the countless others is that his is white.

Pretty much. They think it's hilarious when non white families are torn apart or destroyed.

They love it when someone in the LGBTQ+ community is hurt or killed.

They shrug when kids are shot.

But a white "good Christian man" gets killed, instantly call for war and the blood of Democrats.

Same. They don't want people to know what a vile POS he actually was to help sew sympathy and to also have a martyr they can use.

He wasn't just a man with a difference-of-opinion; he was actively spreading his hateful rhetoric to impressionable youth.

Trump is ordering all flags to be hung at half-staff to honor Kirk's death, but not for the school shooting.

But then again, if America lowered its flag every time we had a school shooting, the flag would never be raised up again. ...Maybe that's what America needs to see.

It's really frustrating to see it framed as he was killed because he used free speech.

1. We don't know why he was killed
2. WHILE and BECAUSE are two different things. The likely thing is Kirk was killed because he engaged in political violence in advancing policies aimed at inflicting maximum harm against a plethora of minorities
