Charlie Kirk has been shot dead. I don’t condone violence, murder, or mayhem. I don’t think many in Ye Olde Blogge s readership do. I won’t contenance any baseless accusations or threats in the comments, either. Just so we’re up front about things.

However, I do appreciate irony. And, the man who said, “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,” getting shot, well, that maybe just proves there’s a god. Not that he deserved it, or even that it should’ve happened, but come on. There’s irony in that thar quote.

We’ve all seen the rush to praise Kirk for his selfless work promoting free speech and honest open dialogue among those who may be on different sides of the political spectrum. His efforts to protect the rights, dignity, and humanity of all who live in our great country and the world, much like his professed belief in Christianity tells us we should do.

Why in the moments before being shot, that he was parading some of his respectful honest exchanges on controversial topics — this time, ironically enough, mass shootings and gun violence — with a college student. Let’s just go through the exchange lest the vile mudslinging hateful left leave us with the wrong impression about who exactly Charlie Kirk was:

QUESTION: “Do you know how many transgender Americans have been mass shooters over the last 10 years?”

KIRK: “Too many.”

To their credit, the questioner told him it was five. Of course, Kirk also thinks that some gun deaths are necessary and acceptable so that we can have our gun rights, except those caused by the incredible minority that is th trans community. Those gun deaths, those should be prevented.

The questioner went on to ask about the number of mass shootings (5700 BTW), Kirk displayed his characteristics sympathy, empathy, and honesty in his response by asking whether we should include those connected to gang violence because Black, Brown, and immigrants. Oh, my bad. I capitalized Black and Brown and don’t capitalize white when referring to race, which was something that Kirk thought only radicalized and divided us.

Others on my social media feed have been reproducing his public statements made in the days prior to his murder.

More tweets from Charlie Kirk over just the last few days. They are an impressive mix of hatred towards: Blacks, immigrants, women, immigrants, Muslims, LGBTQ, academics.

He is quoted as saying, “The young women who voted for Harris want careerism, consumerism, and loneliness.” Really, there are people in the world who want loneliness? And, why shouldn’t women have careers and consume the goods that drive our economy? Oh, because they won’t be barefoot and pregnant the way Kirk thinks god wants ’em to be and there’s only one interpretation of what god wants, Kirk’s.

We know this because he contacted the female Harris voters with the male Trump voters, “Trump voters, young men, they want family, children, legacy.” See? It’s those selfish women who refuse to play the part of docile subservient incubator and not an economy that requires two incomes just to stay afloat much less have kids and provide a legacy.

He told Joe Rogan, “The American way of life is simple… not to have my kids be taught the gay lesbian transgender garbage in their school. While also, not having them have to hear the Muslim call to prayer five times a day. That’d important.” Because the call to prayer might do what to us? Because understanding the difficulties that gay, lesbian, and transgender people face because of bigots like him, might do what to us exactly?

Of immigration, he agreed with Trump that “Mass migration is a weapon of mass destruction” when Trump posted a dubious article stating that will be raped presumably due to the mass migration.

A few more teets from Charlie Kirk oer just the last few days. They are an impressive mix of hatred towards: Blacks, immigrants, women, immigrants, Muslims, LGBTQ, academics.

His misinterpretation of a recent NBC News poll — is it deliberate or did he just not get the concept? I guess we’ll never know — that because 51% of the Gen Z female Harris voters in the poll chose having a fulfilling job or career as important to having a successful life, it meant that they wanted to die alone without children. Ask Lindsey Graham about that one… Oh, I guess he’ll have to wait until they meet up in hell or haunt the Senator or something.

And, my personal favorite hot take of all time, “We don’t have enough people in prison in America. We need a lot more prisoners.” A clarion call to racism is what that is. We all know who is incarcerated in America.

Charlie Kirk, the man who made toxic masculinity cool again. Seriously, don’t let them gaslight you with their kind words about Charlie Kirk.

How are you going to remember Charlie Kirk? I’d love to read about it in the comments.
