lol this bill is just a bait from the republicans as it seems. If you vote yes, you vote for making Kirk a hero, if you vote no you vote against stopping political violence (the other part of the bill condemns political violence) so republicans can say "see left supports political violence". If you are a democrat you lose in both cases (which is the better of two bad outcomes is debatable). Fucking politics is and has always been a game of thrones serving the interests of the powerful but it is even more so with republicans in charge.
