About this listen

 Charlie should still be alive today, but unfortunately, political violence has caused this tragedy. Charlie Kirk was speaking at a conservative university in a conservative state to a conservative crowd. The shooter was a white man who grew up in a conservative home and attended a conservative church. His family voted for Donald Trump, and his grandmother mentioned that there are no Democrats in their family. We do not know the shooter's motives, aside from the fact that he indicated he planned to commit this act. It could be that he viewed Charlie Kirk as not radical enough for his beliefs, or perhaps he had adopted radical left views that motivated him.

One point to consider is that Republicans are now blaming Democrats for this violence because they have labeled Republicans as fascists. However, it is important to note that Donald Trump and his vice president, JD Vance, have also referred to people in stark terms, and it’s hypocritical to claim the moral high ground when they themselves have used similar language.

We need to recognize that political violence is never the answer, but cutting off dialogue and making false equivalencies is also not the solution.
