@71: "...but it's worth it. Hell yes it's worth it. Don't you agree?"
Please tell us all about freedoms we have, specifically freedoms the British and Japanese lack.
While you're busily not doing that, I'll note our country doesn't have a gun problem. Allowing gun-fetishists to set our gun policy is our problem. The NRA exists to help gun manufacturers sell more guns. Full stop. We once had an ideology which placed top priority on selling more cars. When we noticed the carnage (ha!) this created, we changed our ideology, requiring safety first in motor vehicles, their installed equipment, and their roadways. Americans now travel more places in more cars than ever, with lower rates of injury and fatality; regulations do not automatically decrease freedom. If we had 1/10th the regulations on firearms we do on motor vehicles, we could still have all the guns we want, and yet eliminate most shootings.
Warning: We Will Be Decimated—Literally—If We Stay Quiet
They've branded us as terrorists. 75 years of data reveals the real threat.
“We need
full military occupation
of these cities until the crime desists. Period.”
—Charlie Kirk, August 2025
Charlie Kirk died—every violent death being a tragedy—preaching the gospel of occupation—demanding the U.S. military invade America’s own cities under the false pretense of a crime wave that does not exist . . .
His vision for this country
was armed force unleash-
ed against fellow citizens.
And here is the bitter irony:
the very ideology that has bled this country dry
for generations is now being canonized through Kirk’s death.
Charlie Kirk himself cheered when American forces summarily executed foreigners in international waters. He demanded that the U.S. military—a force trained not to police but to destroy—invade and occupy America’s own blue cities under the false pretense of a crime wave that does not exist.
He called it a “prudent deal” and “rational”
that Americans should be sacrificed year
after year at the altar of the Second
Amendment. His words main-
streamed the radicalization
that has already cost ten
times more American
lives than anything
the left has
ever done.
And now, with his assassination, that radicalization
is being mainstreamed all over again. Not just
by online influencers. Not just by Fox News.
But by the President of the
United States and his closest allies,
who have chosen to turn Kirk into a martyr and
use his death as a weapon to brand half the country as terrorists.
If we allow them to succeed, if we let the lie harden into truth, then we are not just watching history—we are volunteering to become another entry in the graphs* above.
*This graph tracks every act of U.S.-bred terrorism
over the last seventy-five years where the
perpetrators’ radicalization took
place here in America.
In all but one, every decade tells
the same story: right-wing
extremism dominates.
The only way to stop that outcome is to speak now, loudly and relentlessly.
Silence is complicity.
Silence is surrender. And in the
face of dehumanization, silence is suicide.
The truth is not on their side.
But it will only matter if we
shout it louder than
their lies.
101: Actually we do. He's a Slog treasure. His linguistic tapestry is quickly scrollable if you're not in the mood to parse his radical boneheaded bloviating. Slog was kinda boring during his absence.

Who’s to say that the shooter couldn’t be both a far right Nazi type and have a trans partner? That wouldn’t fit neatly into anyone’s narrative, but what does?
Bi-pedo @101...
I do read Kristo's posts.
When I see your posts, all I can think is "Christ, what a asshole".
@110 Catalina... Totally agree. Examples off the top of my head: Caitlen Jenner, and Milo Yappa Dappa Wang Dang Doodle, or whatever the fuck his name is.
@Coolie... slow your roll. You ain't near as good at this trolling shit as you think you are. Please stop before you embarrass yourself furthur.
71 That Kirk quote is a response to 3 children being killed. You're missing the context.
Also, it turns out that the kid is a far right republican troll.... so... no wonder you and the rest of the republicans on here are defending him. He's you.
@90 His dad didnt end up being a cop and his roommate didnt end up being trans and he went to a trade school in Utah. He's a groyper. If you don't know what that is... i'm sure Coolidge can tell you all about it.
@113 I think all the trans roommate stuff has been withdrawn at this point but even if it hasn't been... having a SECRET trans boyfriend is far more right wing than left. We aren't the ones that crash Grindr whenever we have a convention.
Lol you guys have been stroking your meat all weekend to a story that still has not been confirmed and is only being reported by outlets who are mouthpieces for this administration, with no updates since Saturday. Even if true, the alleged trans roommate has been cooperating and is not implicated so not even sure what you’re so fired up about.
Here’s a little media literacy tip for you. If a story is attributed to an unnamed source, official, or “report”, wait until more information comes out before jumping. This is always true but especially now that the fbi is run by a podcaster who got his job by crawling up the president’s ass. Might save you from looking a gullible tool who will believe anything if it even remotely flatters your bigotry.
Y'all need to remember this, it is the moment you lost it ALL.
The youth is on to your evil and destructive ways.
Charlies spirit and movement will live long after all of you.

Not that you are going to see this, but I'm glad you got the Ken Kesey joke. Or not.
I've known many Merry Pranksters over the years, and they would have run your dead ass out of Dodge. They don't put up with the shit you spew.
Nobody reads your dumb shit kristofartian

You killed one of your own. Congrats.
@116: Incorrect. Tyler Robinson's roommate is male to female transgender person.
@116: Wishful thinking does not make you correct.

Lol you guys have been stroking your meat all weekend to a story that still has not been confirmed and is only being reported by outlets who are mouthpieces for this administration, with no updates since Saturday.

How is a nonsense reference to Ken Kesey & The Merry Prankster's bus a "joke"? Where is the "funny part"? DO I STILL GET THE BONUS POINTS???
