    that is true, charlie kirk wanted everyone to be all guns blazing everywhere - his last words were actually “counting or NOT counting gang violence?” (something like that). seriously!

      I wasn’t paraphrasing lol, but yeah, exactly. The exchange was about the percentage of trans shooters, and he was muddying the point because trans people are under represented as mass shooters, despite being like .5% of the population. And even that includes people who have detransioned due to social pressure… If you don’t count that profile, I don’t know if there’s a single trans shooter

      So yeah, he was both racist and transphobic in his last moments

      He also had such positions like “if some kids have to die, that’s just the price of the second amendment” (that I am paraphrasing)

      Hell, he started wearing a bullet proof vest to events not long before that. He knew what he was doing, but grifters gotta grift

        a lot of tragedies were actually perpetuated by cis people. oh, and charlie kirk was a jerk (and i mean the jerk that denis leary sang about in the song “asshole”). seriously!
