The Day of Charlie Kirk's Assassination
1Recorded the day of Charlie Kirk's assassination.
Giving time to process what happened when I had gotten home from work that day. My condolences to the immediate family, especially his children. They could have grown up to be better people, but after this, who knows if they'll also be raised by their mother to be fueled with more hate, blame people, if she'll educate them or give them weapons (not literal), how they'll see the world after this, etc. No one deserves to have their family taken from them, as I have also experienced in my life. It can break people. It can make people become worse versions of themselves. Or if they're strong enough, they can overcome it. To be better people. To understand what happened.
I do not condone this. From either side. It's been nearly a week, and conversation is being had, which is good. At the time of recording, I saw nothing but respect and honor from the Democrat side. I looked for about an hour online and didn't see much trolling or anyone "celebrating". Clearly it's happening now because of the rage from Kirk being called a "hero", when it's not a deserved title. He lived his life as a nasty person, so understandably people have shown his speeches, podcasts, videos, comments, etc. to show he's not a person to be celebrated the way Republicans are trying to utilize his passing as a weapon for promotion and propaganda, as they have done many times in the past.
And as expected, our President weaponizes the opportunity to blame half of the country, again, instead of simply giving his respects to the man and giving information on the shooter. He does not unite the country, he only divides.
OBS had an audio issue that I've never experienced before, so I had to fix it in post. I did the best I could. Sorry for the quality.
