This is NOT a national tragedy!

Every media outlet, including the so called liberal MSNBC, is treating Kirk's murder like the freaking Kennedy assassination.
It's one gun death among the thousands we see every year.
This country has lost it's ****ing mind.

Is Dummie seems to be backtracking with this stupid ****ing post because the shooter is one of them.

The nation is saying otherwise. You haters are just continuing to reveal what you are.

Actually, it is. If an asshat leftist assassinates a very prominent conservative activist and organizer, it deserves the coverage.

I'd say the same if someone assassinated some leftist activist such as perhaps Al Charlatan or Jesse Jackson.

That is something the Haters blind themselves to. If under very different circumstances- and very hypothetical scenario - the one murdered had been AOC or The Bern, the vast majority of conservative people would be horrified. There would be soul-searching.

Can you name a non-elected prominent left-wing activist? I can't off the top of my head. Greta Thunberg I suppose.

Then again, I'm of a certain age who restricts myself to Facebook only and not X/Twitter, et al. And certainly not TikTok.

It grinds my gears when I hear or read the adjective "influencer". Such as an on-line "influencer". How can the be influential if I've never heard of them (along with 99% of the country)? That goes for Rogan as well. I loved him on NewsRadio, he was fine on Fear Factor (which the former Mrs. Wiggum and I would watch occasionally), but I don't know a soul who listens to his podcast or on YouTube.

After all that venting, get off my lawn...

That would be a hate crime committed by Gun humping right wing racists.

What we have is an assassination of a man in front of his wife and children, and thousands of young college students. This will leave a lasting impression on their minds, but that doesn’t matter to you disgusting vile people.
