    “I think it’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational.”

    Charlie Kirk sat under a tent that said “Prove Me Wrong” and got shot dead with a bullet in the neck. So either he’s right and his death is a prudent deal, or he’s a dumbass. The whole situation is so riddled with irony it has to be a joke.

      Yup. I might not be fine with the way Charlie Kirk died but that quote proves that Charlie Kirk was fine with the way Charlie Kirk died.

      So, I’ve avoided images/video of the actual shooting, this is the first time I’ve heard he was under a tent that said “Prove me wrong”

      LOL

        It is 10x more ironic than that when you dig into it. Dude also said public executions should be a thing and that kids should be forced to see it and then he was publicly executed in front of his own kids.

            More specifically he was trying to obfuscate with gang violence amongst people of color only to catch a bullet in Mormonland. Which is so fucken white it makes my pasty ass uncomfortable.

              He was trying to wave it away as black-on-black violence without saying that phrase, only to hilariously die to white-on-white violence
