So the churches act as islands of socialism?
So you support the idea that governments should contribute to church social programs?

Clever but churches approach social programs much differently than government. Not to mention, Socialism is a way to organize a government and is mandated by law.

AN UNPRECEDENTED MOMENT IN NFL HISTORY: Detroit Lions icon Barry Sanders left the league in silence when he asked for a moment of remembrance for Charlie Kirk.

Fighting back tears, Sanders declared: “The loss of a voice like his is a tragedy for this nation. My heart goes out to his family and loved ones. This moment reminds us that life is fragile and we must stand together to uphold the values we share.” Kirk — a husband and father of two — passed away at the age of 31. Sanders, himself a father, said: “I cannot imagine that emptiness. I feel it deeply.” Moments later, Sanders made an extraordinary promise to support Charlie’s two children

Saying someone will be replaced is not the same as saying they aren't talented. They still also might be exceptional and someone else exceptional will follow him. Another tell is how the organization Turning Point survives without its founder. If it's built to survive his death, that is a Kirk accomplishment.
I agree with this.

He was far from indispensable, but just because someone will fill that space to some degree doesn't mean they will do it as well.

The progressive zealots think that all of us who are saddened by his death and the vitriol here were completely down with everything Kirk supported. That is far from the truth. I would feel the same way if someone harmed AOC a young star on the left. She's a good progressive comp for Kirk. She started young and didn't have a lot of accomplishments outside political activism. Sadly, AOC has had to beef up her security.
You say that now, but there are people who will be doubtful.
There has been a noticeable increase in political violence since 2021. {Fixed Typo}
For the most part, I have not noticed the right wing (in general) lamenting this. (Whether you have been consistent on the subject I don't remember and is somewhat beside the general point, since you weren't only talking about yourself here.)
Even in this thread, you initially broached the subject implying it was primarily a problem of the left being too tolerant of political violence. not a general concern.

It might be worth looking back at the assassination of those Democratic state senators or the attack on Pelosi's husband by someone waiting for the chance to attack her and see what people were saying.
That might offer some insight about how people would view the murder of AOC.

It is highly speculative to label Tyler Robinson as a 'groyper'. I think its utterly preposterous. But lets wait and see what comes of this. All I know is that family and friends of Robinson are on the record saying he was a pretty staunch leftist. Regardless of what he was, he's pure evil.
Interesting!
Please show that record.

I agree that no one should assume the revelations and clarifications of his beliefs (or lack of coherent beliefs) are done.

But "family and friends of Robinson are on the record saying he was a pretty staunch leftist" is a pretty clear statement and I would want to see those interviews/statements.

Churches are tax exempt. And the mega churches that seem to attract the evangelical right wing types pay their Pastors millions of dollars... not to mention have corporate jets and plenty of non-humanitarian ''expenses'.

So yeah, churches are subsidized by the gov't.

In fact, Charlie Kirk's organization is a "non-profit". Yet his net worth is $15m. Owns a mansion and houses/condos in California and Miami.

Truly a man of the people.

Yes, Charlie Kirk was a racist Nazi. We do own it.
For a guy that people claim to be racist, homophobe, transphobe, misogynst, etc. there sure are a lot of people and leaders within those communities that are saying the exact opposite. Writing testimonials, sharing interactions, making videos, etc.

He called MLK an awful person and said passing the Civil Rights Act was a huge mistake. I'm sure if he had the power or such he'd wanna take that right away. He reminds me of the racist dad in the movie American History X. He even said things like if a black pilot is flying the plane he wants to see the guy's credentials. What does race have to do with that? There's plenty of white, black, etc. bad pilots too or people who made errors at work. Why call out a certain race to question their credentials.

Lets be frank it's only been 65 years since the first black child was allowed in an all white school in America. 65 years...how very sad.
Again you are taking things out of context of what he said and the point he is trying to make.

On one level it will.
It was said, with the imprimatur of being a Fox news person reporting on something within the FBI.
It's out there.

This means it doesn't matter if any more evidence shows up.

This can be referred to for quite some time by anyone who doesn't want to believe any later story.
On that level, it will have legs, because it will be a refuge for some people.

That is, of course, separate from whether or not further reporting will substantiate this in any way.

I am guessing that Kirk had already amassed several $Million in investments and properties. The Russians alone were probably paying Charlie a few $MIL a year to lie on their behalf.
