Maybe if your entire career is to say divisive and disgusting shit you shouldn't be too surprised when someone stops your money maker for good. This is literally what Kirk fought for.

I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment
-Charlie Kirk
Say what you will about the guy, at least he put his money where his neck is.
Statistics are extremely vague until you become one
I saw an IG post that said, "He died like he lived. Deserving to get shot in the neck."
Charlie Kirk radicalised young white men, one of those young white men went down the rabbit hole and ended up as a Groyper, and then that Groyper shot Charlie Kirk in the neck.
It couldn't be any more obvious the result of Charlie Kirks own actions.
The groyper thing isn't real. Is was a misidentification of a symbol on a casing. The initial articles about it have retractions.
While no evidence has been released to the public, the chances of a chronically online, pepe-for-halloween, right wing memelord who hates Charlie Kirk not being a Fuentes fan seems unlikely. Disrupting TPUSA's events was there whole MO for years.
I will admit that there was misinformation going around at the time claiming he was a Republican, when in actuality he was unaffiliated and did not vote in the past 2 federal elections, but according to his Grandma "this family has no Democrats".

Ask the people who tore up the concrete he was sitting on and repaved it the next day what the words on the casings meant
So the whole wiring on the bullets (or actually casings is just weird).
So majority people know (and especially someone who has and uses gun) that when you shoot, the bullet gets out and the caring stays in your gun.
So why would a shooter write "Hey, fascist! Catch" on the casing. There's no satisfaction that the text would penetrate the victim. In fact if he got successfully away no one would ever see that message. So was he intended to be caught?
2nd thing is that there seems to be lots of fakes of the picture, although I found one that looked like real. That bullet was never fired, so I guess they are going with what was found in his gun or ammo box, so how is that related to Kirk?
I also find it suspicious that nearly anyone they caught somehow all had writing on their bullets of some kind. The weirdest one was the "Anti-ICE" written with a marker by a guy who entered one office and actually only killed immigrants that were held there.
As opposed to his shoe size? This is nonsense. Of course it was.
Sadly, a lot of right wingers and anarchists are convinced that Charlie was on track to be President someday because he was chosen by the Billionaires deep state and that his assassination was an internal power struggle.
I almost wish these morons could kill each other faster.

Whether defendant Tyler Robinson acted out of political animus could be key for prosecutors seeking the death penalty — or for his attorneys in taking that punishment off the table.
In science and law, it’s one thing for something to be apparent, and another for it to be proven. I take this to basically mean that the death penalty is now available for sentencing, and I’m sure there are a lot of people who would like to watch this man receive it.

Seems like they're laying the groundwork to go after political enemies.
As opposed to his shoe size?
I heard the reason they immediately tore up and repoured the concrete where he was shot, was so that the libruls wouldn't find out he wore a size 6 narrow...
I believe in Ankh-Morpork, this would be considered a suicide.
If you walk into a troll bar and say "rocks suck. Should smash em all" and you end up dead, that's suicide.
You walk around screaming "I got a big sack of gold!" And you end up dead and robbed, also suicide.
Maybe he should have thought about having better politics.
Defense attorneys also have argued against a possible sentence enhancement for endangering others, saying the shooter “hit the intended target.”
In my clients defense, he made the shot...
That's a wild defense strategy. I'd personally go for "how do we know his neck didn't just do that?"
Your honor...
The ~~Lord~~ Joseph Smith works in mysterious ways, sometimes necks just explode, who are we to reason why?
Quick edit:
Forgot this was Utah...

Are we certain that he was killed by a bullet?
his neck just... did that
weirdest shit i've ever seen
From what I saw it was the rapid blood loss and spinal trauma that killed him. Bullet just happened to be there...
true. its also why hitler was targeted.
Hitler rarely gets credit where deserved. He did what no one else could do and many tried. He finally killed Hitler.
i hope to watch a whole aussie show about it soon.
Was it an engraving, or just a fascist catching a bullet?
If the fascist didn't enjoy it, their body would have rejected it.
I guess when you really want to kill someone, you focus more on practicing your aim, and less on spelling.
I think I could've told everyone that without the engraving. I'm pretty sure if someone asked me, I would've said this.
👍
Sometimes bullets engrave themselves
Did he do it in cursive? Fucking practically in subscript to fit a whole sentence on the thing?
This shit again
