Some rapid thoughts on Charlie Kirk: I don’t want violence of any kind promoted. Especially political violence. Didn’t like it when Trump was shot at, don’t like it now. The difference now is it’s less surprising, gun violence has been normalized by people like Charlie, and that mixture to me is incredibly dangerous for what’s to come.

It’s pretty sad that this is where we are at now. The right wing media engine is going to make anyone that hints at being “left” as public enemy #1 of the USA, rather than what this (likely) assassination should do - encourage gun control. I think we can only expect more gun violence, not less, and used politically. I worry.
