re: Charlie Kirk

Yes, I heard Bill maher say "fuck you" tpo anyone who cheers kirk getting killed

I also heard a reminder that black, browns reds should not let the majority dictate the terms of their resistance, since let's face it, there is already a push to smother it, along with all the e "let's al get along"

when you are faced with two alternatives, usually the best choice, is BOTH.

Yes we can make sure that we do NOT become what we hate, and that we remember that while violence may be needed at times, at almost always gets out of control and burns victim and villain alike. It becomes an endless stack of "well your team did this, so I get to do this!' At ten end all those involved becomes nothing but food for tee vultures

Yes, we do need to watch the fact that the right wing will tray to spin this into "the left is so violent" Never mind Gabby Gifford, Harvey Milk, MLK. Never mind that if one looks at right wing site sand hear outright calls for violence. The calls do nto just come from crazies, but people in suits. The call to make sure Guns are nto controlled came from many, including one Charlie Kirk himself.

So, if we do nto want a violent nations, we have to do the one things that the USA has never done since 1609, try to renounce violence and coexist
IF not, don weep crocodile tears when the blood flows, especially if it reaches your doorstep
