Wonder what the deal is on that? Radical left? Radical Islam? Radical Right winger?

I think the shooter is unknown at this time. But it's safe to say that Charlie as killed for having opinions and voicing them. Murdering someone for having opinions that one finds objectionable is an assault on American ideals.

Liberty teeters on the razor’s edge
Tribalism fueled by narcissism

Charlie was only 31, married, 3 year old daughter, 1 year old son. Saw the videos. What a vile, evil, abhorrent, reprehensible thing.

But mean tweets, apparently

This is tribalism

A lot of my evangelical friends are freaking out

Living in fear.

When did Christians start believing that this life on this planet at this time was the only thing that matters.

Xns in the USA have, in large degree, forgotten who Jesus is as they chase Babylon and the desire to be liked by the world and independent of God

I can't for the life of me see how Charlie Kirk would be labeled as a Facist, Nazi, etc...
He gave a mic to the people who disagreed with him!

These are people indoctrinated in Childhood Government Indoctrination Centers and then further indoctrinated at government/private socialist and anarchist post modern universities aka training centers.

These are insults slung by the same people who don't understand or appreciate the seriousness and significance of a political assassination in 2025 America.

Amazing how his death rippled through the whole world, people declaring Jesus is King!!
This at the time when there are many speculations about the Rapture happening at the time of Feast of Trumpets.

I see Charlie Kirk is branded as a right-wing political activist..... which brought this Scripture verse to mind:  Ecclesiastes 10:2,  in the King James Version (KJV): "A wise man's heart is at his right hand; but a fool's heart at his left"

He would engage in public discourse with anyone who asked him questions, and he was always polite and kind. He was always upfront with his religious beliefs but never intrusive with them. He was also protective of Jews and pro-Israel. He was a very special person, and his death is a great loss for this country.

I saw some video clips... he was well mannered and answered very well.

Charlie exemplified people able to engage in civil dialogue despite political or ideological differences. The creature that murdered him is typical of the radical leftist wingnuts who respond to those they disagree with with angry rhetoric, violence and bloodshed.

The murderers motives and politics seem a bit unclear or perhaps mixes. Definitely heavily online and involved with gamer culture.

In an interview with authorities, a family member of Tyler Robinson recounted a dinner discussion Robinson had with another family member prior to the shooting. He said, "they talked about why they didn’t like him and the viewpoints that he had." The family member also stated Kirk was "full of hate and spreading hate.” The bottom line is, Robinson resolved his differences with bloodshed, which is consistent with the dangerous, radical mindset I alluded to. Extremists on the far right can be as dangerous as as those on the far left. In either case, hate and violence are never the answer.
