I agree and I wish people would stop the division. Charlie Kirk was not a uniter, he was a divider. Why are we celebrating people who make us want to kill each other?
This is quite pertinent to today, when 25 years ago on this day America united like we haven’t seen since WW2. Everyone was flying the flag, had “These Colors Don’t Run” bumper stickers. There was no right and left, just Americans. And our allies came to our defense in a second. Canada, the UK, etc made room for our stranded citizens who couldn’t fly home. We united as a country, citizenry and world.
Now? Fuck to have lived through that and see this, it’s depressing. It makes me ashamed of where we are. We should be coming together over school shootings and tragedies, not diefying a man who said our children’s lives are not worth his gun.
No one should be gunned down in cold blood in front of their family. But I have little sympathy for a guy getting shot while making excuses for the epidemic of shootings taking our children’s lives.
I just had a realization that a lot of this site was likely not alive 25 years ago and have no idea what a truly united America is. We’re in a race to the bottom and the only winners are the guys who already got born on third and think they hit a home run.
