I read that they made sure everyone was out of the building first. Not exactly the reckless violence that this post implies. It was humane and productive as far as I can see. I am not really sure killing Charlie Kirk will help things in the long run. (and no I'm not saying he wasn't a huge piece of shit)

Unfortunately it probably won't do anything, other than remind us that fascist infighting is still alive and well.

Conservative talking heads are hydras. One of the absolute worst for a long time was Rush Limbaugh. When he died, we celebrated, but he was just replaced by three more sycophant conservative heads.

You say that as if non-fascists had any choice in the matter. The even-more-extreme fascist who did it is directly opposed to "helping things" in the way you or I understand the term.

American Gen Z

"Noo you can't celebrate a Nazi's death, that makes you just as bad as the Nazi! We must debate fascism in the marketplace of ideas! Stoning gays, lynching trans people and making kids watch public executions was just his opinion. Think of how bad this makes the left look!"
