One more thing then I'm going about my day. I've seen many people say Charlie was killed because "someone disagreed with him." Or because "we need to learn to talk to each other." Or because "both sides need to come to the table." Make no mistake. The problem isn't lack of unity. The problem is that half our country is indoctrinated with an ideology that that sees the world through the Marxist lens of oppressed vs. oppressor. In that paradigm, the only goal is revolution, not dialogue. Not to mention, when words are seen as "violence," violence becomes an acceptable response to words. This is good vs. evil. Freedom vs. Tyranny.

Alisa Childers is a former Christian Contemporary recording artist, current author and Christian apologist with her own podcast.

For me, her statement above is the best, most concise summation of the battle we are facing.

^^^^

Hard to believe it's that simple but it really is. The baby Hitler/time machine wet dream has resonated with way too many losers.

I just wanted to relay a post I saw on youtube.
It was one that gave some clarity and truth.

quote:

"Conservatives say guns are for hunting, sport and personal defense because that's what they use them for.

Liberals say guns are for killing people because that's what they use them for."

We are not the same.

^^^^^^
Good quote! I’ll remember to use it.

I thought the memorial was done in an excellent fashion. The speakers did an outstanding job with the unpleasant task at hand.

I even watched Erika on Utube today, since I had to step out a bit while it was live.

I saw Reggae in the title and scoffed. I clicked to sample and stayed for the whole song. It brought tears to my eyes again. I checked and it's supposed to be AI generated. It's still good however.

The Legend of Charlie Kirk
By Melissa Kulp Frankenfield

I nearly vomited when I heard. Our forgotten dinner – Chicken Lo-Mein – smoldered silently in the skillet. My shaking hands gripped the remote to adjust the volume so I could hear the news anchor somberly confirm: “Charlie Kirk is dead.” Murdered by an assassin’s bullet on the campus of Utah Valley State University, the famed champion for free speech was silenced.

Violence is always stunning. As it should be. The grisly murder of a 31-year-old father, husband, and son has haunted me. When did we start shooting our rivals, our political adversaries, those with whom we disagree?

Perhaps this gruesome execution is a symptom of societal sickness. These are dark cultural days when our differences turn deadly. I fear we’ve lost the art of respectful disagreement.

Ironically, that was Charlie’s mission at Turning Point USA: to reclaim the conversation. And it cost him his life.

CNN analyst Van Jones – an admitted rival of Charlie Kirk’s – recently shared in an emotional interview that Charlie had invited him for a gentleman’s conversation about some divisive topics. Charlie concluded the invite, “We can disagree about the issues agreeably.”

This was Charlie’s heart, his mission: “We can disagree about the issues agreeably.”

Charlie believed this nation was the greatest on earth. Flawed. But, still America the beautiful. He wasn’t wrong. Charlie Kirk died a joyful warrior, engaging amiably and respectfully with the next generation in his pursuit of Truth. His life was cut tragically short.

During his memorial service, his widow, Erika Kirk, stood teary-eyed before an audience of arguably millions and offered the unthinkable- forgiveness to her husband’s killer. She choked, “It’s what Charlie would do.”

Certainly, Charlie was flawed. He was human. Like us all. But Charlie was onto something. He found Grace. And that changes everything.

While Charlie Kirk may have been silenced by an assassin’s bullet on September 10th, his legacy will continue to speak loudly.

As we love God, our families, and our nation.

As we seek Truth.

As we forgive our enemies.

And as we disagree agreeably, Charlie’s voice will always be heard.

“Here I am Lord, send me.” Isaiah 6:8

Not trying to be a pedant but I think dsiets quote specified “killing people” for liberals. I think it’s unambiguous.

Holy Shit! Brian Edwards is my doppleganger if I was that young and had shitty taste in glasses. It literally looks like somebody photoshopped an old picture of me on to a police officer's (or former police officer) body.

Without re-litigating the civil war... Brian Edwards doesn't even know who won.
