Archive Teetering on the Edge of the Abyss
It has been a week since young conservative activist Charlie Kirk was gunned down at a rally on the campus of Utah Valley University in front of his wife and hundreds of attendees.
In the days since, a suspect — 22-year-old Tyler Robinson — allegedly confessed to his father that he committed the crime.
Robinson's father turned him in to the police, who arrested him. From the information available, it appears at this point that Robinson has been in a gay relationship with his roommate Lance Twiggs, who is undergoing a gender "transition" from male to female.
If text messages from Robinson to Twiggs are authentic, Robinson told his lover that he killed Kirk because he couldn't stand Kirk's "hatred."
Kirk's death has left America reeling. Nationally --- and globally --- there have been outpourings of grief, prayer vigils, memorials, and fundraisers to celebrate his life, mourn his death and support his widow and two small children.
But if Kirk's assassination cast a pall of grief over millions of Americans, reactions from the left have shocked and outraged them.
Immediately following the shooting and announcement of Kirk's death, social media sites like X, Bluesky and TikTok were filled with posts and videos from thousands of people cheering Kirk's death, calling him vicious names ("Nazi b*tch," "fascist," "racist," "transphobe," "misogynist"), stating that he deserved to die, dissing his wife and children, and even calling for similar violence against other conservatives.
Those who proudly posted their indifference or outright joy at Kirk's murder were expecting the usual cheers and praise for their left-wing virtue signaling, but the reaction has been quite different.
Incensed by this appalling callousness, Americans began calling employers and demanding that action be taken.
It's difficult to know the numbers, but hundreds of employers have been contacted and dozens of people, including well-known personalities like MSNBC commentator Matthew Dowd and perennially unfunny comedian Jimmy Kimmel, have been fired for their hateful comments or for spreading lies. (Kimmel just got his show pulled by Disney after asserting that Kirk's killer was a MAGA conservative. He was not.)
Americans are just as shocked by the sources of these inflammatory and inhumane statements as they are by the content; a disproportionate number of the posters are teachers, professors, administrators and medical professionals; those people educate children and provide medical care, and they state publicly that someone with different political views was a terrible person who deserved to die?
