I don't remember what happened in Colorado. But you did jog my memory that today is the attack on the World Trade Center.

This, again, sad assassination is only ONE more on the huge list of your dead people by fanatic and sick people which were exacerbated since Trump is in the public spheres. Long before 2015 he did have many times express his vitriolic views on the American life and politics.
Since 2015 he introduced this language of hate and calling Democrats «enemy» of USA's democracy all over his presidency and after more an more.
Outside USA we didn't know who was Charlie Kirk but now with all what we see of who he was and did say show how he was building up the gap between ultra right conservatives and ultra left liberals.
USA are more now than ever the «Divided Stares of America» and it would need a miracle to change the way it's going on in the future.
The freedom of expression in USA is a mirage now when both sides are stuburn not to listen what the other side is proposing.
The way I see those MAGA commentators on tv shows is that they will yell all over the other and make false claims or facts to divert the main subject.

Sane and real debates in USA is no more possible.
Calling your «adversary» in politic as «ennemy» shows how one track minded and anti American some politicians and MAGA fans are now thinking.

Another senseless tragedy.

They need to be. They are victims of Kirk's rhetoric and deserve to be honored..

Merci!

Students at a Colorado High School were shot.

whkattk said...

You are 100% correct. I no longer see a way out of this. When Kirk is hailed as a martyr and students who were shot on the same day due to HIS rhetoric aren't even mentioned, the Republicans have lost their humanity. This country will not recover from the things MAGA has done.

whkattk said...

It is.

XOXO

For those victims yes, I would lower the flag.

But for Charlie Kirk. As Bette Davis said. We should never ever talked bad about the dead, only good things. Charlie Kirk is dead. Good.

They can ask to lower flags for that asshole, but why were the flags not lowered for the Democratic Politicians and their family members killed this summer byt eh gunmen??? That party and Pres Cankles can go fuck themselves.

I think it honours fallen men more to raise the flag to full mast and have the enjoyment they were deprived, for them as well as ourselves.

whkattk said...

Oh, access to firearms has nothing to do with it.... The obsession in this country is ridiculous.
XOXO

whkattk said...

Right? That question has been posed all over the socials.

whkattk said...

Hmmmm. Interesting way to look at it.

I happily agree with all of you. Every day I ask myself WTF, and then go on living in the weirdest world I could have imagined. Make it stop!
