Someone should shoot this assho ... oh, my bad.
- No. He does not deserve to be mourned but that does not mean he deserved to be murdered.
- Hey man, no need for such a full throated criticism of the departed...
- Being an asshole is enough to deserve being murdered now?
  
  It was less of a murder and more of a lesson on the 2nd Amendment in my opinion. But basically yes, if by "asshole" you mean being a hateful fucking nazi.
  
  He was a weasely misanthropic little shit who gleefully poisoned the discourse in the name of theocratic white supremacy and helped usher in an administration that's done nothing but hurt it's constituents and alienate us from the global community.
  Simply calling him an asshole undersells how vile of a person he was and the incredible damage he has caused.
  
  That may be the case but whatever theocratic white-supremacist trump-supporter he was, I think advocating for the murder of a person because he advocated for the murder of a person (or at least implied that) doesn't make one any better than him, if that makes sense.
  People are talking about him having spread hatred (which he did) and are at the very same time spreading hatred about him. Quite ironic in a way...
  
  Enlightened centrist horse shit.
  "Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them." - Karl Popper
  
  "I do not imply that we should always suppress the utterance of intolerant philosophies; as long as we can counter them by rational argument and keep them in check by public opinion". - Karl Popper, clarifying that statement you cited
  One shouldn't kill a communist that is simply voicing their opinion, one should however kill a second Stalin.
  
  Welcome to Soviet America where you can get eliminated for simply having wrong beliefs.
  
  I mean, it's more about letting anyone have a gun. Your shooters are always mentally unwell, or actual children.
  
  You should argue gun control with Kirk, the sign said to prove him wrong.
  
  These MAGA scum are a direct threat to the US constitution. They are so weak willed that they follow people like this and actually enjoy being manipulated by them. The person that killed the asshole wasn't even one of "us", he was another MAGA that was mad because he thought this asshole wasn't being a big enough threat to the Constitution.
  MAGA is so hateful and crazy that they are killing themselves.
  
  MAGA is a death cult in every meaning of the term, so much so that my perception of the vast diversity of different meanings of "death cult" keeps expanding quite against my desire to explore further expressions of it.
  
  I see nothing wrong with shooting racist nazi fucks like that.
  
  The issue is that if you think it's justified to kill people on the basis of views that you (radically) disagree with, then that same justification could be used by them to justify killing you, right?
  (Also, I think calling him a nazi doesn't do the victims of actual nazis justice, the latter of whom certainly did more than verbally expressing a radical ideology; but this just on the side)
  
  Dude was overtly racist, called for violence against ethnic groups, supported a literal genocide, among other things. He was doing the same shit the Nazis did in the beginning.
