Charlie Kirk was a gifted Trump activist. He often said things that were false and misleading. He propagandistically supported Trump and Trump’s falsehoods while maligning the left and trans people. Whatever he said and supported, his murder is an outrage. Political violence is unacceptable. The perpetrators need to be prosecuted, and those who encouraged or celebrated this heinous assassination should be criticized for their indirect support of murder. Political violence is more than normal violence. It is an attack on democracy and tears at the fabric of society.
