Watching the Charlie Kirk video felt good.
I'm not sorry. Seeing someone who spread so much hate and bigotry and weaponized disinformation get his clock cleaned was absolutely fine by me.
I have empathy for lots of people even if we don't always agree, but not for people like Charlie Kirk.
You're viewing a single thread.
Died like a lil removed is what he did. Didn't even put up a fight, just went out like a light.
Not to defend these cunty fascists, but how exactly do you suppose anyone — barring Superman — "fights" a surprise bullet to the neck?
By the time he heard the shot he was already dead.
Bootstraps to pull himself up over the bullet?
Trump Bible to deflect the bullet?
Anti-woke shield?
Who cares? He's dead.
So a big thing of these 2A advocates is the whole idea that as a good guy with a gun, you can take care of all the bad guys with guns.
I must assume he owns guns. He did not defend himself from what to him would be the "bad guy with a gun".
Or in an ironic twist, you could say that in this instance the good guy with the gun DID take out the bad guy.
That might work in a robbery or something, where a gun is used as in "do what I tell, because I've got a gun".
But as I assume the bullet wasn't subsonic, he literally could not have even heard the shot before getting hit.
Even if he had the speed of the Flash he couldn'tve dodged. Would've needed Spidersense to see it before it was coming.
And these fascist cunts are no superheroes lol
Edit "you could say that in this instance the good guy with the gun DID take out the bad guy."
Well a guy of some sort took out an evil guy for sure but dk if he's that good himself. I don't judge him for this murder but might for others
It's not supposed to be taken seriously. This was a person who thinks mass shootings are a necessity because everyone needs to have easy access to guns. Part of a large group of people who think it's actually reasonable to have to defend yourself from shooters at any moment, and who downplay the difficulty of protecting yourself from a shooter. THIS is the reality. You might never even know there's a shooter.
This isn't Charlie Kirk, but a bunch of other second amendment advocates being mocked by Sacha Baron Cohen. They all seemed to agree it'd be great to give school children guns to prevent school shooting. Because that's the best solution, rather than having fewer crazy people with guns.
If one of these people gets shot from a distance and people say "what a pussy, didn't even attempt to defend himself", it's to point out how dishonest their rhetoric is: You CAN'T just magically protect yourself from other people with guns just because you have a gun. It doesn't work that way. It's not just the distance either. Someone could walk around with a loaded firearm concealed in a comically large hoodie pocket and just pull the trigger standing right behind you, you'd never know he wanted to kill you. But THEY pretend that it's OK that every would-be shooter in the country has access to firearms, because you, too, can have access to firearms, and therefore it's completely trivial to protect yourself. It's not.

That's a decent point, noted.
But given my reply also includes comparisons to Superman and the Flash, and I presume one of them couldn't dodge it, then I'm sort of supporting the taking that shitty rhetoric to the absurd, even though I may have been too stoned to get the first as a complete joke.
Sacha Baron Cohen gets tons of respect for me, that shit he pulled was actually dangerous.
and therefore it's completely trivial to protect yourself. It's not.
100% agree. I enjoy guns and I waa in the military but I probably wouldn't get my own gun licence currently due to some doagnosis I have. And I don't think that's a bad thing. Because while I might consider myself a responsible person, I know tons of others are. One friend had his guns taken away due to always getting into fights in bars. And that's fucking right.
I can stand up to people on the street because I don't have to worry about them literally murdering me with a few flicks of their finger.
Shouldn't have dressed like that, really he is asking for it
By the time he heard the shot he was already dead.
Beta cuck move on his part.
yeah like of all the things you can make fun of him for you choose the fact that he didnt magically deflect a rifle round with his jugular? wtf lmao
Not alpha enough I guess? Who knew.
Didn't even try to staunch the blood flow, just keeled over. Weak.
Bullets are fast.
