- Republicans warn against mocking Kirk’s death, threaten dire consequences
- At least 15 people fired or suspended for allegedly disrespecting Kirk’s memory
- Online campaigns directed by Republicans continue to target Kirk’s critics online
WASHINGTON, Sept 13 (Reuters) - After the fatal shooting of right-wing influencer Charlie Kirk, U.S. Republicans have a warning for Americans: Mourn him respectfully or suffer the consequences.
Over the past several days, Democratic and Republican leaders have widely condemned the murder of Kirk, a 31-year-old activist and Trump world celebrity known for his hard-right views and pugnacious debating style.
Kirk did not deserve to be killed.
I won’t mourn him and no one else should because Kirk and many others like him on the right have been pouring gas on the fire that is violence in the US.
Had Hasan Piker or any other left wing commentator been shot, Charlie Kirk would have been crowd funding to get the shooter out on bail.
Well that’s absolute nonsense and you know it. Empathy is for the weak remember? These are blatant lies
