Heterosexual, white, Anglo-Saxon ancestry, Protestant background, born and raised in a proud Republican family. This is your shooter. A son of Trump’s America.
This 22-year old took down Charlie Kirk in cold blood, in an act of premeditated murder, carrying out a political assassination of one of the most talented, effervescent conservative voices in America.
I can imagine, in my mind's eye, a single-file line forming on this board of all the bellicose, loudmouth MAGAs (you know who you are) who were so blatantly, embarrassingly, woefully wrong, and were eager to throw down and draw blood in vengeance against your perceived enemies, your fellow Americans; Democrats, liberals, what have you. Your neighbors, friends and colleagues.
For anyone with even a sliver a reason and sanity left, just read through the comments in this thread, go back to the beginning, and decide for yourself, who are the extremists in this country, and on this board.
Much like the raging f*cking as*hole, lying, deranged Trump, who immediately chimed in a mere minutes after the shooting, how this was a leftist, liberal attempt to silence a conservative voice, so many here let their true colors shine. And this was done with ABSOLUTELY NO INFORMATION WHATSOEVER about who carried out this assassination.
How utterly pathetic and unironic, these past 48 hours have been.
Taking Charlie Kirk's lead, I will never lose hope that members of the MAGA cult will slowly, gradually return to normalcy, and find their way off the ledge. However long it may take. Charlie Kirk, in the end, was a voice of reason, demanding full disclosure of the Epstein files, as Trump and his sycophants on the Hill and the wretched MAGA media continue to lie and deceive the naive base who voted for him.
So, all those who've chimed in on this thread, here's your golden chance to man up and apologize for jumping to conclusions, for seeing what you wanted to see, for being so clearly and blatantly wrong about the perpetrator of this heinous crime.
The floor is yours, gentlemen. Please, one at a time, stop shoving and cutting into line.
