Melissa Hortman and her husband were assassinated. THEY WERE ASSASSINATED.
When Paul Pelosi was attacked, the MAGAts jeered and made up stupid lies about the attacker being his gay lover. An 80+ year old man attacked in his own home by a right wing nutter and they thought it was funny.
Now they are crying like little babies because TinyFace got shot and sane people are pointing out that he was quite okay with people being shot to protect the second amendment.
So theyre assholes, so that means its ok for you to be one too? So if someone rapes your wife, it makes it ok for you to rape theirs? Kind of a weird way to look at it, dont you think?
Does widow baby faschy waschy want a bottle? Did you make a boom boom in your diapey widdle fashy washy baby booboo? Aww you're a cwanky widdle fascist aren't oo?
No. Though if it were somebody who was sexually assaulted after repeatedly praising and promoting rapists I'd probably similarly acknowledge the irony.
This guy reaped what he showed, and despite the initial attempts but right-wing issues to make it a battle cry to blame and attack the left even more ... it looks like it came from somebody even nuttier than him in camp "go go fascism". Had it been somebody else in his circle of crazy who took the hit, I've little doubt that a Kirk would have been part of the "we need even more guns to fight the left" crew before they even identified the attacker.
While I am not going to recommend bullets to heads (or necks) as a good idea for solving these issues, I'm certainly not going to cry about this particular neck intersecting said bit of ammunition nor fail to note the irony in that given his platform.
Yes, actually, it is okay. They think empathy is for weaklings, so I am just following their lead.
