After years of dismissing our anger over the deaths of children gunned down by yet another idiot with a gun , dismissing us as “using the bodies of children to advance our agenda of grabbing guns”….

Dismissing your anger? No, more like rejecting the shameless political ploy for advancing an agenda for what it was: A shameless political ploy meant to advance the left wing agenda.

And after years of hearing Republican politician after Republican politician offer “thoughts and prayers”, or vague words (and little else) about “mental health” but nothing else to address the problem, do you really wonder why we might respond to Charlie Kirk’s death with “thoughts and prayers”?

Given this board is made up mainly of atheists who mock prayers all the time, it's understandable that they don't/can't/won't relate to the sentiment being offered.

Pam Bondi also says she’ll be using the power of the state against those whose speech is not acceptably deferential to Kirk.

I'll give you this point, and cite an article from a source you hate that agrees with you:

What Bondi threatens, however, is using the power of government to compel business owners into either silence or a particular political message. Jack Phillips has spent more than a decade fighting that in Colorado, and is still fighting that to this day. Bondi is way out over her skis on this issue, and either needs to retract that threat or perhaps reconsider her role in this administration. Charlie Kirk got killed because he wanted more speech, and this is not the way to honor his life.

In fact, I'll cite two:

Oh, for God's sake. This is not only ridiculous and against the law, but it is also precisely what we have been fighting against for the past several years.

There you go. There's 1,000,000,000,000 more consideration to a point you just made than the entire history of this board has ever given to a point somebody on the right makes.

You're welcome.
