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.

    Its not about sympathy, about the cheering it on. If you were all cheering on the deaths of kids in Gaza, Id call you out on it as well. The point isnt sympathy or empathy or anything else like that. Its about YOU, and those like you, acting the way you are in public forums. You want to be seen to be cheering for murder. You are treating it like your team scored a touch down. Its the type of thing that MAGA does, yet here you all are. Acting just like the people you hate.

    You think Im upset with you because you dont care that Kirk got killed. I dont care that Kirk got killed. What I care about is that WE, the supposed left, dont all get radicalised to the point that we dont see ourselves acting just like the pricks that we hate. But look at you all? Laughing, cheering, saying "get JK next!" and many other repugnant as fuck things. You should all be ashamed of yourselves. Youve become the very people you hate. And its disgusting.
