The complete lack of self-awareness of the people cheering this on is wild. This will absolutely galvanize the right wing and a lot of centrists and lead directly to Vance 2028.
Or they will look at actual history and run away from the violent right wing.
The man who targeted and killed Democratic state Rep Melissa Hortman was a Trump supporter. The man who targeted the home of Dem Governor Josh Shapiro was a Trump supporter. The men who wanted to hang Mike Pence on Jan 6th were Trump supporters. The man who targeted and killed the son of Obama-appointed District Judge Esther Salas was a Trump supporter. The man who tried to kidnap Nancy Pelosi and assaulted her husband was a Trump supporter. The men who were convicted trying to kidnap Dem Governor Gretchen Whitmer were Trump supporters. The man who sent pipe bombs to the homes of Obama and Biden was a Trump supporter. The men and women who tried to overthrow the government of the United States on Jan 6were Trump supporters. There is no equivalent or even similar list of Obama or Biden supporters who have carried out similar murders, attempted murders, or violent attacks. Mehdi The man who targeted and killed Democratic state lawmaker Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark in their home in Minnesota in June was a Trump supporter. The man charged with the attempted assassination of Pennsylvania’s Democratic governor, Josh Shapiro, in April was a Trump supporter. The man convicted of orchestrating a series of hootings at the homes of four Democratic elected officials in New Mexico in 2022 was a Trump supporter. The man who tried to kidnap then Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and assaulted her husband, Paul, in 2022 was a Trump supporter. The men who wanted to hang Mike Pence on Jan 6, 2021, were Trump supporters. The man who killed the son of Obama-appointed District Judge Esther Salas in 2020 was a Trump supporter. The men who were convicted of trying to kidnap Michigan’s Democratic governor, Gretchen Whitmer, in 2020 were Trump supporters. The man who sent pipe bombs to the homes of Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, and other top Democrats in 2018 was a Trump supporter. The man who killed left-wing activist Heather Heyer after driving his car into a crowd of counter-protesters in Charlottesville in 2017 was a Trump supporter.

But did the right cheer?
In many cases, yes. And pardoned the guilty. And mocked the victims. And rewrote history.
And, as you have seen in this very thread, they have also promised endless violence against the left, disguised as "retribution."
Or they will look at actual history and run away from the violent right wing.

No serious people are cheering.
lots of trolls and Russian bots.
get some media savvy. Will serve you well. Or get off the twitter.

Not only that, but also alienating themselves on social media. It's a lot like during COVID when people felt somehow entitled and justified to make horrible statements about large swaths of the population. You see people's true colors during these times. Be careful what you post. Others are watching. They are taking notes. The internet is forever.
I'll just be honest about it: If you're in any way cheering on the murder of this man... a man with two kids, who was killed in a public and graphic manner... well, there is something very wrong with you. You need to look into your hate. This is another human. I can honestly say that I even felt sympathy - not empathy, because that would have been impossible - for horrible men like Saddam Hussein and Gaddafi when they were killed. It was barbaric and despite the awful things they did, they were still human. Wrath is not justice.

There are literal video compilations of people cheering, and you know that.
I'm not arguing for a side here to be clear hear, but objectively if you can't see the reaction to this assassination is different then anything we've experienced in the past then you are the a divide continues to grow.

And yes! I wish i could edit the grammatical mistakes

The TMZ staff literally got caught cheering and laughing when they covered the story.
An MSNBC contributor was fired for his idiotic response.
The NYT obituary was basically an attack on Kirk while they gushed over actual terrorists as "austere scholars".
"The cache of more than 18,000 emails directly contradicts Maxwell's recent statements to federal investigators and undermines her longstanding claim that she distanced herself from Epstein after the early 2000s."
Nearly 24 hours since the shooting and still no one in custody, all we have are a few lousy photos of some kid who looks like 60% of dudes in the western states and there's not even a picture of him with a gun. What an abject failure.

Today's press conference has been delayed due to "rapid developments" so stay tuned.

From NYT 16 minutes ago:
It is unclear why officials delayed a news conference that was scheduled to begin right about now, but a spokesman for the Utah Department of Public Safety just told me that no one is currently in custody.
“The State Department on Thursday indicated it would review the legal status of immigrants"praising, rationalizing, or making light" of conservative activist Charlie Kirk's fatal shooting.”

Where in the constitution does it say that noncitizens can behave however the hell they want?
If you brought a man home from the gay bar and he disrespected your boyfriend and kicked your cat you'd have every right to call a social worker and have them beg him to leave your house.
