Tough call. I said someone who knew him would recognise him. My guess the dad turned him to save his son. If the cops had corned him on a street.....

Charlie Kirk was a relative moderate and probably the biggest star the Republicans had in the mainstream youth vote market.
Candace Owens is mid thirties now.
Nick Fuentes is probably the only talent they have that could fill Kirk's shoes with that youth recognition.....but he's much more right wing than Kirk. If it happens it would be somewhat ironic considering they very much weren't friends.
Kirk was much more than just well known he was a big brain and effective organiser and glue between administration, donors and 'influencers', which he was obviously one. He's a big loss.
It's going to be interesting what happens now.

Americans will keep their gun rights simply because they don't want to submit to the will of someone like a Wisbech.
Considering that we live in a country where hundreds of people are in jail over social media and comedians get arrested at airports or for praying near abortion clinics I can't say I blame them having these concerns.

His dad is Police Officer and restrained him until Officers arrived to arrest him. It won’t, save his son as Utah have the death penalty.
I cannot perceive what the father was/is going through, together with his mother and 2 siblings. Despite saying that, he deserves all that’s coming to him, 2 young girls have lost their father

Just remember everyone, Wisbech tried to tell us not to jump to conclusions about the motives for this assassination.

Progressives fed the messages that emboldened this person to murder Charlie Kirk.
Many of them expressed support and celebration on social media after his assassination.
Reject progressives.

Some Democrats really need to take some responsibility for these actions. Their continued dangerous rhetoric would have played a part in radicalising this young man.
For years, those on the left have compared people like Charlie and Trump to Nazis/ Hitler and the world's worst mass murderers and criminals.
They have called Republicans a threat to democracy, framed views from the likes of Charlie Kirk with hate and spreading hate and comparing him to fascists.
This is a cause and this dangerous rhetoric must stop. They had a chance in Congress to respect prayers and a moment of silence but they threw that chance down the toilet.

the $100,000 might make the dad's retirement that much more bearable. But stoopid comments aside, that took huge bollo's to make that call.
And isn't it strange that these households with connections to authority can produce super clever maniacs. If their offspring were from a council Estate in SE London, they might already have a criminal record by the time they left school, and therefore be on police radar.

Anyone who incites violence or intimidates others exercising their legal rights deserves to be in jail. They don’t deserve to be shot.
I am concerned when people cannot see why the idea of someone having a right to any gun they choose is such complete nonsense. No such right exists here. Nor should it anywhere.
I can, just about, see why in isolated and poorly policed areas carrying a small handgun for personal protection could be justified. Provided they are correctly monitored and those carrying trained and their reliability carefully assessed. Not so high powered weapons of war or hunting. They need to be controlled and locked away.

Maybe he thought it was the only way he had any chance of saving him because he knew if he ran he would almost certainly have been shot dead.
We don’t yet know what the history is, or whether that could provide a defence. The father does. Time alone will tell.

Oxford Union condemns president-elect's reported Charlie Kirk posts
Student George Abaraonye posted on social media after news of the shooting broke, seeming to welcome the attack, according to media reports.

"The Oxford Union has condemned comments made by its incoming president appearing to celebrate the shooting of Charlie Kirk.

Mr Abaraonye had taken part in a discussion with Kirk at the university debating society in May, in which the pair expressed opposing views on masculinity.
The BBC has contacted Mr Abaraonye for a response. He reportedly told the Times, external that he had "reacted impulsively" and quickly deleted the comments, as they did not reflect his values." (BBC website)

How can the Oxford Union have an incoming president who has condoned the murder of Kirk.
This isn't the first time he's advocated for violence against speech and institutions he doesn't like.

Tyler Robinson reportedly was part of various Antifa Discord servers, according to CBS News.
It seems a normal upbringing in a law abiding family. Has become more politicised in recent years, welcome to the world of social media? Personally I thought he would take his own life rather than face a trial. He will end up with the death penalty, possibly following years on death row. Hope he is please with himself

They could jail him for being a terrorist, or hate-speech. That's a custodial offence for white people.
Nevermind killing a white bltch,
Hate speech? Inciting violence? Isn’t that a criminal offence? Oh wait….

Doesn't really mean a lot. I've seen some pron sites with man-on-man action, and other variants. Doesn't mean it got me excited,........much 🙂
Know your enemy, and all that. Maybe it will make court, probably not,
“ reacted impulsively and quickly deleted the comments” so did Lucy Connolly. Let’s see if any action taken hereOr like this p r i ck, who is trying to back peddle
