Charlie Kirk Shot in the Neck in Utah (Update: Shooter Alt-right links)

[SchlongConery]

Anyone else impressed that TR hit his target, Kirk's carotid artery, from 200 yards out with one shot?
No reports that he is an expert level, damn good for an amateur or did he get lucky?

Why would you assume anyone aims for a carotid artery? With due respect, you obviously have no knowledge on the subject but make a lot of assumptions based on ...

No shooter aims for a specific artery. Or the neck. It's like people asking why the cop didn't shoot the guy in the hand or foot instead of the chest.

A professional shooting such a powerful round as the 30.06 would aim for the chest, the centre of mass. The tissue and organ damage would be catastrophic and 100% lethal. Plus there is less chance of the target moving their head like Trump did.

The 30.06 is first (body) shot deadly against MOOSE out to 440 yards! It's only surpassed by 50 cal BMG and 300 Magnum/7mm Magnum.

BTW this shot was 120 yards. Any 12 year old can be quickly taught to reliably hit a head sized target with iron sights, no scope required.




But if a shooter is looking for a dramatic instagram worthy spectacle, the average non-pro is going to go for an exploding watermelon head shot. (Exception of police snipers who may go for the head shot of a hostage taker to reduce the risk of involuntary or last gasp gun discharge)

I've copied the YT link to start at the interesting part.

What's all this "in the end" talk? You one of those trans-wannabes?

Nahhhh, they are not my type!!

Well the Far Right Online Conspiracy Theories are the ones to keep on pointing the fingers at Trans individuals for all the shootings!!

just like blaming a woman for getting raped

"she asked for it"

such monkeys

Dressing sexy isn't asking for it.

Stating there are acceptable gun deaths to defend the 2nd amendment is.

 

[Phil C. McNasty]

But he gave permission from his position on gun control. He become a statistic.

That's the point. He lacked the empathy and became one

No, he was arguing that in order for people to have their second amendment right, there were always be people who are going to abuse that right and murder people.

It's similar to to alcohol. We get to enjoy alcohol, but there's always going to be people that abuse it, get in their car while drunk, and take out a family.

From what I've seen of his videos, he always argued that guns are for self-defense only. And that they act as a deterrent if somebody decides to rob your home.

But the negative side of the freedom to own firearms, is that you're going to get school shootings and other types of mass shootings

I've been arguing for a while that gun control proponents themselves lack empathy; they aren't actually advocating for increased public safety, they're using incidents like this as "gotchas" to score political points.

Look at all the celebration that's going on in this thread.

If someone advocates for due process, does that make them "pro-crime"?

Like I said before, stay classy.

Oh so Charlie Kirk saying a few guns deaths are acceptable to keep the second amendment is classy, but Frankfooter saying that these deaths are not acceptable, is not classy?
You are neither cunning, nor a linguist. lmao.

Celebrating death is classless, regardless of where you fall politically.

 

[Butler1000]

so he deserved to be shot

do you even understand what you are saying?

Yes, I'm stating that Charlie was a victim of his own ideology by advocating that gun crimes are the price his preferred society has to pay for the 2nd amendment. He himself accepted that he could end up a victim in that instance. And by extension was willing to pay that price for his own ideology.

And lack of empathy is his own stated position that it doesn't exist.

You are crying crocodile tears. Weep for innocent school kids.

 

[SchlongConery]

Charlie Kirk never encouraged everyone to go out and shoot each other though

Yeah, he just made light of the people killed in his vocal support of society being armed with no controls.

Who would have thought that crazy extremists or those with mental illness are legally able to get their hands on guns legally?

 

[Phil C. McNasty]

Does this look like someone who's disrespectful to LGBT??

TikTok - Make Your Day

Not to me it doesn't

 

[Shaquille Oatmeal]

There's certain things that aren't exactly wrong, but are best not said.

Somewhat of an example is when Bill Maher's show Politically Incorrect was cancelled by ABC in 2002. He said that the 9/11 terrorists were not cowards. Suicide attackers are anything but cowards.

Yes, you do need to not be a coward to willingly commit suicide for a cause.
But it is 100% wrong, without reservation, to say that people's deaths are acceptable, to preserve a constitutional right, that does not even satisfy a basic need for anyone.

 

[SchlongConery]

so he deserved to be shot

do you even understand what you are saying?

Do you?

He didnt say any such thing.

 

[Shaquille Oatmeal]

If Blake says he's not a liberal, then it must be so......LOL.

Shooter wrote anti-fascist phrase on his bullet casing.
Kirk is viewed as a fascists by most liberals, including the libtards on this forum.
Here's who anti-fascist (or antifa) is:

Own it!!! He's one of your boys

Everyone should be an anti-fascist.

Is it actually making light of, though, or just stating a fact?

 

[Phil C. McNasty]

What about this one??

TikTok - Make Your Day

Still being disrespectful??

They are hoping to reduce gun incidents. That gun advocates won't even consider background checks, limiting types, storage laws, says they WANT TO USE THEM.

By not advocating for responsibility in gun ownership, you license irresponsible usage. And a society will pay a price.

That is what happened to Kirk. He payed the price he himself stated members of society need to.

Listen to Trump praising the Far Right Radicals while attacking the "Radical Left":

Trump goes FULL PSYCHO in EARLY FRIDAY Fox Interview

This in spite of the fact that the Far Right are the Real Violent ones. WHAT A MORON!!

Celebrating, not here. But I am indifferent. As was he.

IHIP News: BREAKING Charlie Kirk's Shooter CAUGHT and He's MAGA?!?

 

[Butler1000]

weep for the world and where it's going

based on your and your bodies posts in this thread

I called it getting worse years ago. This is worse. And it's not the end. I have reached a point of indifference to the plight of the USA internal struggles because they are the authors of their own misfortune. Every gun death is on their societal choices now.

If the right wing becomes the victims of their own decisions to support unfettered gun ownership then every death is on them. This is what they wanted.
