That's terrible. All such violent acts are deplorable, but political violence can have an especially corrosive effect on society. Hopefully he was not seriously injured.

I'll be sure to send those thoughts and prayers ASAP.
Well...I'm an atheist...so no prayers.

I spent a few minutes checking. I didn't actually know who he was. Just heard the name a few times.
No details about his condition. Just that he was shot "at least once".
No details about the suspect, yet. But they do have the alleged perp in custody. So I'm sure we'll get more soon.

If the shooter was Trump, he wouldn't lose any voters.

May that reply serve as an example of how to "heal" political violence.
I certainly never thought ppolitical violence would be the new norm one day in America.
I sure sure hope that isn't the case .....

1poorkid showed me the video clip. Had I seen that before, I would have declared him DOA. Based on the amount of blood, and how quickly, I'm guessing it hit his jugular or carotid. He would have been dead in about 30 seconds (give or take).
He probably never knew he was hit.

I am not far enough around the bend to seriously consider "his nibs" arranged it. But, I fully expect the regime to use this as an excuse to take another step closer to a police state.

Regardless of whatever the official response is, once they catch the shooter it won’t be a great time to be a member of whatever group(s) the shooter is from.

Keep in mind the trend that the media blatantly pursued: all Muslims involved in mass shootings were involved in the "unified global conspiracy of Islamic boogymen", but a white guy who did the same thing, was "funny in the head". That tendency drew a lot of flack, when the media tried to write off Dylann Roof as a nut case, in spite of his long trail of ideological expression that lead to the mass shooting.

hold on.
there have been plenty of rightwing nuts that shoot their own, and the response then is quite muted.
in fact, it is usually just the person must be mentally ill after the fact, whereas they had every right to gun before.
but the race is on :
- alex jones tells Qanon this time is not a hoax
- trump hands another medal of freedom for outstanding contribution to the country

Some thoughts on "Thoughts and Prayers".
https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/why-we-pray-...It’s become fashionable on the political left to mock people who turn first to prayer in the instant aftermath of such things. But as people are calling on social media now for prayers for Charlie Kirk and his family after he appears to have been shot in an assassination attempt, we’re reminded of two perfectly sound and related reasons why we pray first, even above and beyond the reasons why prayer in general is both virtuous and comforting. One is that, of course, our second instinct in these situations — second only to ending an ongoing threat — is to think of the victims who are suffering. In Kirk’s case, as is often the case, that includes the fact that people seeing this event don’t immediately know if he’s going to make it or, if so, in what condition. First things first.Very, very well said.
And just as important:
The related reason is that Do something should not be our very first response before we even know all the facts. Why did the shooter do this? How was he armed, and from what source? What led him here? How did he get in position to take the shot? These kinds of questions always follow, as they did with the school shooting in Minneapolis, or with the assassination of the speaker of the Minnesota house, or with the attempted assassination of Donald Trump. Of course, before changing things in response to any given event, it is usually a good idea to act deliberately rather than in a mad rush.

I'm sure he was all "thoughts and prayers" every time school kids got massacred.
Worse than that, the most remarkable Charlie Kirk quote to resurface in the wake of his death is horrifically callous;
“It’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment”
It would not be surprising if the shooter was the parent of a slaughtered school child (or other victim of wanton gun violence). A crime of passion.
Who doesn't understand the unrelenting pain and anguish tormenting the parents of elementary school children who had been ripped apart by rounds from an assault rifle?
"Prove me wrong."
