I just saw a clip where Charlie Kirk said we need to bring back public executions, and they should be televised..

All of these rage baiters, like Charlie Kirk, spewing controversial and hate-filled rhetoric to make themselves rich, are reaping what they sow. I also have to wonder if they actually believe what they are saying, or if they are being the modern version of "shock jock" to make money.

I'm not celebrating the fact that Charlie Kirk was executed, but he doesn't get a pass either.

One last thing, YouTube Channel 5 (Andrew Callaghan) posted an interview with the person who was asking the question when Charlie Kirk was shot. There are various angles shown throughout the event, and you can see that Charlie Kirk is literally surrounded by security. These guys are constantly scanning the crowd (and are carrying guns.) They couldn't stop Charlie from being killed by a shooter, but somehow, armed teachers are supposed to?
