He got shot while defending school shootings. You reap what you sow…

Thoughts and prayers

'Activist' is not the correct way to describe Nazi swine, BBC.

[-] NoodlePoint@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

He got the comeuppance that Mosley didn't.

[-] SqueakySpider@lemmy.dbzer0.com 54 points 1 day ago

Why wasn't he wearing a bulletproof vest? Doesn't he realize that his clothes would make this happen??

/S ugh .

Yup, just checked his wikipedia article. He dead.

[-] TammyTobacco@sh.itjust.works 36 points 1 day ago

There's a video and it's gnarly. He's almost certainly dead.

This day is really looking up!

[-] breadsmasher@lemmy.world 28 points 1 day ago

Gnarly? It warmed my soul

[-] FundMECFS@anarchist.nexus 16 points 1 day ago

Thoughts and Prayers. Poor Bullet.

[-] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 day ago

at least its use stimulated the economy

[-] FundMECFS@anarchist.nexus 4 points 1 day ago

True. Won’t someone think of the shareholders? They just made medical bills bank.

[-] quick_snail@feddit.nl 1 points 1 day ago

Give that bullet a medal of honor

[-] Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 day ago

Someone should really put a wreath down for the bullet, it didn't deserve to have to go through that.

Womp womp. If only there were a way to prevent these things from happening. The American mind will never know.

[-] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 day ago

You really don't want to see it

[-] Lumisal@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

If anything after seeing it I'm disappointed it seems like it was a fast death. Based on the news they made it sound like he had a chance at first, but that kind of neck injury is usually a pretty fast death. He likely passed out within the few seconds of the video and was dead on the scene.

I don't even know if he had the time to process the immense irony of what just happened to him, let alone reflect on being such a piece of shit that someone actually killed him.

But what's important is this particular fucker will no longer be able to spread their poison further. Sure, they're will be others, but some are better at it, and he was one.

Idk if they've said what kind of gun shot him, but whoever did was was prepped for this. Sounds like it had a suppressor on, and the shot was done far away enough that there's at least almost a whole second of delay before the bullet hit. Probably why the shooter got away. Which means the ironic timing was literally pure karmic coincidence.

It's also good to remember that people like Kirk would have no issue the same happening to the "others" they dehumanize, and have even encouraged doing what he just had done to him.

Like the old saying goes: "They have to be lucky all the time. We have to only be lucky once". This will definitely rattle the fascists and the rich. Expect Elon to suddenly carry around kids again.

I assure you I do. I've watched it and enjoyed it.

Nazi 2.0 supporter that incites violence towards others. Helped get Trump elected and how many thousands will die when Trump's Medicaid cut takes affect?

Fuck him, I'm fucking joyful he is dead

[-] aramova@infosec.pub 7 points 1 day ago

Schadenfreude for sure.

[-] rimu@piefed.social 29 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Political violence bad.

But... shot in the neck while speaking in favour of guns. Wow.

[-] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 18 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I am pretty sure bullets are speach, so this is technically covered by the first amendment.

[-] Marshezezz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 day ago

Poetic irony today :)

[-] PhilipTheBucket@piefed.social 32 points 1 day ago

Somehow I think the reaction to this will be totally different than it was when a gunman killed Melissa Hortman and wounded John Hoffman.

[-] quick_snail@feddit.nl 8 points 1 day ago

Anyone know what type of gun was used, and have any tips?

[-] misk@piefed.social 1 points 19 hours ago

Well, at least American are using 2nd amendment the way it supposed be, meaning for self defence.

[-] lmdnw@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago

Rot in piss, Charlie!!!

:-D

Finally Trump gives some good news

[-] Lumisal@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

I got three bottles. One's reserved for all the other right wing asshole fascists, to only take a shot when one goes. Just regret not getting party poppers.

[-] FundMECFS@anarchist.nexus 10 points 1 day ago

The shooters still on the run. I sure hope they don’t accidentally run into another fascist leader.

[-] Lumisal@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

I'm imagining this one learned from Luigi, so maybe they won't get caught and instead are laying low in a safehouse.

[-] shani66@ani.social 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Glad it's not Sunday, I'm gonna get a good bottle of wine to celebrate! Well, okay it's probably not going to be 'good' but whatever, gotta enjoy the wins when they come

[-] Kwakigra@beehaw.org 7 points 1 day ago

Charlie Kirk was losing relevance rapidly, especially after advising his audience to trust the government regarding the Epstein files. Now he's far more useful to Trump than he has been in many years. I don't know how likely it is for the Trump administration to be involved in what appears to be a highly professional assassination, but martyring public figures is precedented by Hitler's administration. Regardless of who shot Kirk, you can be certain the Trump admin won't miss an opportunity like this to galvanize the base and pin it on the enemy of the week.

[-] SeeMarkFly@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 day ago

That'll teach him. Go to school, get "learned."

[-] The_Che_Banana@beehaw.org 6 points 1 day ago
