    Words aren’t violence. Violence is violence. In this case, pretending that Kirk’s words were violence created actual violence.

      What’s your evidence that the killer thought Kirk’s words were violence? I only saw him labeling them as hateful. The same designation your party’s leaders are giving to words that they don’t like.

      If you don't take it, it can only good happen.

        Now we're nitpicking rhetorical meaning of political rhetoric and whether the murderer ever uttered certain words in a certain order. This is peak rhetorical combat. Meanwhile, the politically motivated assassin subscribed to banal self-righteous hatred of the right, the likes of which can be consumed from any common source of left-wing punditry. The only thing fringe about him were his actions. His words were totally mainstream.

        Education is extremely important.

          Faster than I expected. Kimmel’s show to return within a week or so.

              He’ll probably get a short term ratings boost.

                      I think we all know that Donald Trump is the real victim here.

                            Trump stepped on his own dick. Seriously? Take the 10 minutes and watch it.

                              21 minutes. I dipped in.

                              It's obvious that this is a massive own goal for Trump. Stupidity and arrogance is never a good combination, and he's surrounded himself with a bunch of toadies who just do what he tells them because for some reason or other.

                              I don't really like Jimmy Kimmel's tearful shit.

                                  Dont know much about either guy (Rogan or Kimmel)

                                  Joe Rogan has rushed to the defense of Jimmy Kimmel over the 'joke' that got him pulled from the air, while calling the Trump administration 'crazy' for going after the late-night host.

                                  On his podcast Tuesday, Rogan slammed Kimmel's suspension over his comments about Charlie Kirk as an affront to free speech, warning that those who hailed the decision could face similar consequences.

                                  and

                                  The host also poked fun at Trump's reaction to the shooting.

                                  'This is not how an adult grieves the murder of someone he calls a friend,' he said. 'This is how a four-year-old mourns a goldfish.'
