I'll admit, I jumped up and down like a schoolgirl when I heard. I'll gladly celebrate the death of fascists.

University officials said the shot appeared to come from a nearby campus building roughly 200 yards (180 m) from the event area; local media identified the location as the Losee Center rooftop.

Advocated for guns on campus and 2A and died for his cause, so props for that.
So what you doing this weekend?
Wait...he was just 31!?

Some people I know are taking a dangerous amount of glee in this. Not dangerous in a "Oh he wasn't that bad of a guy how dare you be happy about it" kind of way, but in a "You know people can see what you're writing, right?" kind of way. The sort of stuff that would get you banned from sites or fired from your jobs.
By all means, be happy about it if you want to be, I know there are some specific minority groups out there that are cheering the house down at Kirk's death, but be smart about it. Then again I probably don't need to tell anyone on Lemmy this since privacy and anonymity are pretty key elements of the community.
If you don’t have anything good to say about Charlie Kirk, don’t say anything at all.
Charlie Kirk is dead.
Good.
