Right after Kirk was murdered we had the sarcastic "thoughts and prayers" trope that the left likes to use.
It’s good that you see the issue, but because you are on the receiving end of it, you fail to hear the message.
Here’s the message:
After years of dismissing our anger over the deaths of children gunned down by yet another idiot with a gun , dismissing us as “using the bodies of children to advance our agenda of grabbing guns”….
And after years of hearing Republican politician after Republican politician offer “thoughts and prayers”, or vague words (and little else) about “mental health” but nothing else to address the problem, do you really wonder why we might respond to Charlie Kirk’s death with “thoughts and prayers”?
Seems you guys just can’t take your own words thrown back at you.
Boy howdy how that is true.
Trump says he’s coming after us (power of the state) for criticizing Charlie Kirk
Stephen Miller says the full power of the state will be mobilized to dismantle the left- including choice words about the Democratic Party.
Pam Bondi also says she’ll be using the power of the state against those whose speech is not acceptably deferential to Kirk.
People are being targeted.
Compare to the free speech used by the President of the United States when he made fun of the hammering of Paul Pelosi.
For that matter, compare to the free speech used by Charlie Kirk in the matter of Paul Pelosi’s hammering.
Apparently, when the right does it, that’s “free speech”, but when the left does it, that’s a subversive crime worthy of being smashed by the full power of the state.
I have never made fun of Charlie Kirk’s murder/assassination, but I have criticized Charlie Kirk for his words, and I will continue to do so because that is my right……… a right that is sadly being dismantled before our very eyes.
