Looks like he was a white male christian from a gun toting family. So he's not radical left, he's not jewish, nothing about potential trans, it's a puzzle, because this makes him look like he's on the right. I'm waiting.

Maybe he's just a loser, who wanted his 15 minutes of fame. Kirk just happened to be the most prominent person to come within range? Why would someone make a clean getaway, then confess to their dad, unless he wanted to be caught, to be in the press for months more, during the trial?

Meanwhile, we see how much Kirk gets the Horst Wessel treatment.

I'm just getting back online for a few minutes. I read that the shooter was in custody.
Also read that he was Mormon, grew up in a Republican household, was not gay, was not trans,was not radical-left.

I haven't had time to check, are the apologies from the MAGA cult posters on this board rolling in so fast that it's impossible to keep up with ? Surely the MAGA must be beside themselves with regret for the hateful things they posted regarding,well, everybody else in America that is not in the MAGA cult. Can't wait to read up on all of the heartfelt
sorrow and regret from MAGA to the rest of America, I'm sure it'll be touching.

FALSE: Robinson dropped out after 1 semester...

Yeah, after twenty pages of The Sun Also Rises, he decided that murder was the only option.

He dropped out after one year at a technical college.

Must have fallen under the influence of a radicalized welding or HVAC instructor.

The ALEC index of "State Education Freedom", which, in our Orwellian world means how reactionary schools are, ranks Utah #8 in the country, with a grade of A-.

I wish the same.

My wife literally came up with that as a spur of the moment comment.

Several times during today, I’ve looked at her and laughed while repeating “Basement bro”.

“You liked that one, did you?”, she says.

“I did.”

It sort of encapsulates a whole online culture that is poisonous and isolating and seems to be alienating too many.

As the governor of Utah said today- let’s all get away from that- go for a walk, feel the grass under our feet and do something nice for our communities

Christian, or Mormon? According to reactionary Christians, LDS is a cult. I was watching, when Mitt Romney was running for POTUS, and taking so much heat for being a Mormon, that he went on national TV to reassure people he would not turn the US into a Mormon theocracy, but, he would not, personally, abandon the faith of his fathers. When his dad, George, ran for POTUS in 68, there was a lot of chatter that he was not qualified, because he was not born in the US. George was born in Mexico, of US citizen parents. Why were his parents in Mexico? Some years before, the US government tried to force the Mormons to abandon plural marriage. A lot of Mormons moved to Mexico, because the Mexican government would leave them alone.

The Mormon colonies in Mexico (Spanish: colonias Mormonas en México) are settlements located near the Sierra Madre mountains in northern Mexico which were established by members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) beginning in 1885.[1]: 86–99  The colonists came to Mexico due to federal attempts to curb and prosecute polygamy in the United States.[1]: 67–85  Plural marriage, as polygamous relationships were called by church members, was an important tenet of the church—although it was never practiced by a majority of the membership.

Apparently, I missed the part of the Gov's speech, where he expressed compassion and empathy. Isn't it ironic that Kirk ridiculed those concepts?

Kirk also dropped out of community college without earning any degree or certificates.

Pretty amazing, Steve.

I never thought I’d see the day when not only a fundamental value of most faith traditions, but also of most societies was ridiculed as “woke”.

If empathy is “woke”, then I’m woke and proud of it.

iirc, Trump's official Presidential faith advisor is an advocate of "prosperity theology" that turns the camel and eye of a needle thing upside down, by insisting that material wealth is proof of being in a state of grace.

from the Google net sifter:

During an October 2022 episode of The Charlie Kirk Show, Kirk discussed what he considered to be "feel your pain" politics, making the following statements:


Empathy is "damaging": "I can't stand the word empathy, actually. I think empathy is a made-up, new-age term that... does a lot of damage".

From the dictionary on my computer:

early 20th century: from Greek empatheia (from em- ‘in’ + pathos ‘feeling’) translating German Einfühlung.


I guess the "New Age" Charlie was referencing started earlier than I was aware of.
