It is sadly sometimes unavoidable.

Agree. There's a way to disagree with him without resorting to violence.

So a man claiming we need these shootings to maintain a right to defend ourselves against tyranny has died from someone exercising the right he protected while engaging in tyranny against a minority? Do I have that correct?

He was a professional liar, his job was to knowingly lie in order to promote Fascism. He knew what he was doing was harming millions of people, and I do mean millions, because right-wing media is seen all over the world.

I can have sympathy for average people who get duped into MAGA because all they see is right-wing media. It's a form of grooming. I can even have sympathy for Fascists who honestly believe that Fascism would make the world a better place. Same goes for Tankies.
But Kirk knew what he was doing. He deserves no sympathy, only people dancing on his grave.

I don't know him but i heard he was right wing and supported Israel

I don't honestly care much about Kirk. He was a vile person. But I am more worried about the backlash or possibly Trump using this as a Reichstag fire moment.

The guns are an important part of keeping US society conservative. So are the car crashes and poverty deaths.

Live by the sword, die by the sword.
