"Disagreement" is not the same thing as doing active harm to myself and people I care about. His right to speech ends where violating the rights of others begins.

Imagine YOUR child gets murdered in cold blood and some scumbag shithead goes on national TV and talks about how they're a necessary sacrifice and we should be ready to accept that, and then prevents any action that could prevent the next one.

Here's my free speech: while I don't condone extrajudicial murder, the world is better off without him and I won't pretend it's not because of how that came to be. It's a tragedy that his children will grow up without a father, but the hundreds of families of murdered children that won't have to hear him mocking and fighting them will grow up in a better world. Plenty of horrible people who do horrible things have families. If you want to be remembered fondly, stop doing horrible things.

And you want to talk about ghoulish? Being a good father to your children with the money you get from stripping rights from other people and ruining their lives and ability to have good relationships and lives of their own, and not feeling the tiniest bit of remorse about it? That's ghoulish. That's the definition of ghoulish.

Not only did he excuse gun violence and the deaths of innocent people, he also disparaged the concept of empathy. Now that he is the victim of the gun system he endorsed, you expect us to offer him the empathy that he denied other, more worthy people?

People who don't offer respect or tolerance to others, shouldn't expect it in return. It's not a difficult concept to understand, nor is it immoral.

Do you have the same empathy for the innocent people who died in Iraq/Afghanistan/Gaza? Other gun deaths? Gang members have families too. The tens of thousands who die to car accidents every year? The answer is NO. You're just using a single death to attack people you don't like. When Hillary, Biden, or some other democrat dies MAGA will celebrate.

I felt more sympathy for his poor kids when he was still alive.
