It's honestly been a while since a breaking news story put a massive grin on my face
After the attempt on Trump, I thought these guys had force fields around them. One shot, 200 yards, and a great day.

These guys think they can talk all day about how they are going to make other's lives worse, often those with lesser means, and they think they should enjoy safety themselves at all times. This while caring so little for others who are victims of gun violence, offering up weak thoughts and prayers and no action. Well, today he got to live the life he always wanted, he just wanted it for others.
He was literally in the middle of defending his stance on why trans people are bad, and dodging questions on gun violence, when this happened. Bizarre.

Why the fuck is Donald Trump the one announcing his death?
Does that stink of this being a false flag and Kirk was chosen as an expendable to anyone else??
I am not at all convinced the shooter was a leftist or liberal.
It was a truly wildly impressive shot. One single shot taken over 200 yards away through a very limited angle that made an instant-kill hit, and no suspect in custody? Hmm...
It is extremely convenient that this happened immediately after the publication of the Epstein birthday book.
Yeah I'd say it was convenient if there wasn't a major Trump scandal each week in the past ten years at least.

There’s no way they would shut down a propaganda powerhouse like that. It’s tempting to go down the conspiracy rabbit hole, but the vast majority of times it’s really the simple explanations that count.
It honestly could be as simple as “a school shooting victim’s relative wants revenge against the speaker who ridiculed their tragedy.”
Occam's Razor.
The USA probably has a million (literally) gun owners capable of making that shot.

Bruh... We are in for an explosion of political violence... Only difference between now and the past is white wealthy men are the targets. Watching them freak out when they are gunned down on a random Wednesday is laughable. Welcome to your average black Americans reality. Police killings are political violence but no one with actual power ever gave a shit.

They say you should only speak good of the dead. He's dead. Good.
is this the mythical "good guy with a gun" that republicans promised?
Trump and his cult created this environment. His hate mongering and baiting brought us here.

Was it his gay lover that killed him?
I am unironically concerned about the motives of his assassin. Every time we see something like this, I get this sinking feeling like we've just seen the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand.
But then, we keep discovering that they're right-wing nutjobs, and so the people who are praying for a civil war have to gnash their teeth and pretend like they're not just looking for any reason to go on a killing spree.
Nothing would please me more than if it was some personal reason, like a jilted gay lover.
They've already decided what they want to do. The military has invaded our nations capitol and our second largest city, Trump is threatening Chicago too, and we're giving a quarter of a trillion dollars to ICE etc. They were already using that Ukrainian woman's death to push their racist narrative. They will find something regardless. They will happily manufacture a controversy from anything. See Cracker Barrel.

31?! Hate really ages you.
"If a person has ugly thoughts, it begins to show on the face. And when that person has ugly thoughts every day, every week, every year, the face gets uglier and uglier until you can hardly bear to look at it.
A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts it will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.

I'm completely apathetic to this news. I'm not going to celebrate his death. But I think there's a lesson hidden somewhere in here, we'll probably lots of lessons.

I wonder if Tucker Carlson is sh!tting his pants right about now.
We know Trump is. But that was before he heard the news.
