I'm not saying anyone deserves to be killed, but if you vocalize strong, narrow opinions, you have to be prepared for people to disagree...

The stronger your views, the stronger your opponents will come on. It's human nature and the risk you take by vocalizing your perspective, in any situation. To act like it's shocking when any extremist is killed is to pretend you don't know what's going on in the world right now. It's playing dumb.

Innocent lives are lost every day and dealt with privately because their lives are not lead publicly.

I don't have any particular thoughts on the matter, but I gotta say, the selective empathy is disturbing. I've been observing the arguments, and I simply think humanity is sick.

I'm on the side of peace of compromise, and I know it's the losing team. No matter what I say about harmony, someone is going to call me a name and explain to me how stupid I am.

We're all a bunch of monkeys.

I'm a fairly moderate more of a true Liberal Socialist in the view of JFK, I look at the issue, not the popularist stances by one side or another, I'll piss of a righty as much as a leftist, I do not believe in higher wages as they only raise the costs of goods and services, and if a migrant wishes to cross the border for a better life for them and their families, we had zero borders before Columbus, they should be allowed to stay, however deport the criminals that only intend to hurt others or smuggle shit in, like drugs. I do believe in the ballot box, but not mail in voting, stand in line, election day should be a paid holiday. I do believe in the 2nd amendment, but not as a willy nilly "right" to own firearms for just everyone, I believe having them is a privilege with restrictions with sensible background checks and proper education with training. I am against abortion on demand as birth control, but it should be safe for mothers whose lives are in medical danger as well as sexual violations. Like I said, it depends on the issues and circumstances.

As for Charlie Kirk, yes, he had views considered extremist, I was not fond of his uber religiosity, however he did engage in debate rather than just commentating as a one sided pundit like so many are.
