In reply to the discussion: Trump ally Charlie Kirk fatally shot in Utah as 'person of interest' in custody [View all]BumRushDaShow
(160,105 posts)269. I understand!!
I just remember when that happened and people figured he would finally "get it" (when he was "on his deathbed" as it was described, with shattered hip, etc). But he went right back to being an ass and even more so.

Looks like they got the aorta. (Actually got the carotid or jugular, but leaving it up since I already got replies)

I froze the video. It looks like the neck. At first, I thought he was shot in chest due to the location of the blood.

I agree. I froze the video. At first I thought it was the aorta because of the location of the blood

I know. I was wrong. I was basing on the blood spewing out, but the blood was pumping downward.

Isn't he the entitled whiner white guy who said "I think empathy is a made up New Age term that does a lot of damage"

I'm sure the mortician will be able to fix it right up with wax and spackle. Nobody will even notice.

If it's a Republican, you won't know. The media makes sure to downplay that.

You tripped over yourself ignoring Republicans, who are actually trying to kill millions, to point fingers for "hoping"?

Not in this case. I can look at Saddam, Qadaffi, even stepping back to Mussolini

Of course in that tweet, Charlie frames it as simply "the second amendment' banner.

Wow. He looked(s) young, too. He probably would have been a future rightwing evil leader.

This is clearly the kind of country Republicans want (including Kirk himself), so I couldn't give less of a fuck.

AP "Live Updates" has 45 reporting that he has died. Waiting for The Guardian update.
