    I’m completely apathetic to this news. I’m not going to celebrate his death. But I think there’s a lesson hidden somewhere in here, we’ll probably lots of lessons.

      It is like someone falling to their death doing one of those “Free climbing to the top of a smokestack and hanging by one hand.” videos. You don’t celebrate it but you also think “Well you sort of knew it would come to a bad ending eventually.”

      I’ve never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure.

      - Clarence Darrow

      there’s a lesson hidden somewhere in here

      “People should be careful what they wish for.”

      Particularly, his own admission that the deaths of innocents should be perfectly acceptable for 2nd amendment rights to be upheld.

      Well, he sure set an example, now, didn’t he?

      That liberals are unhinged psychopath murderers who constantly roam around calling everyone a Nazi fascist racist bigot and further alienation themselves, to lose more elections as a result? That’s definitely a lesson to be learned here.

        The things these people are saying aren’t even remotely as rude as the sort of things Charlie would say at an average event. Kirk suggested gay people be stoned to death. He said George Floyd had it coming. He blamed rape victims for dressing poorly. But those are all just words.

        So are you suggesting these people are murderers just because they are sharing some uncomfortable words? Curious.

      I’ve been playing Lead Belly’s Blue Tail Fly every few hours and substituting Monster for Master because i don’t know the lyrics very well
