So, are we done talking now?

No. Kirk's greatest impact came from the fact that he engaged in conversation even (especially?) with those who disagreed with him. His assassination is just one more example of how the victims of political violence actually end up being even stronger symbols and having even greater impact after their martyrdom.

There is nothing to be gained from political violence -- far greater to show we are reasonable and peaceful. As bad as some of the Leftist responses have been online and in the media, I've also seen responses from lifelong Democrats who have said they are done with the Democratic party after seeing those responses.

The video is horrible, there is so much coverage of Charlie dying. What pisses me off outside of the murder/assassination (of course), are all the absolutely f'd up people out there who celebrate this crap. What the hell kind of people are they? I know it's bad, but I wish the worst for all those a-holes out there... We're off the edge as a country - it's been getting worse every decade... These people are ugly humans (I guess they're human). The a-hole who killed Charlie deserves to die a slow and painful death, and those who celebrate the loss of life deserve to die as well, but that's all in God's time and in His hands - and I while I don't really pity the fools who have it coming (maybe I should... but I can't right now), retribution and justice cannot come soon enough.

Get out there, get some lead down range, be ready, and keep'em locked and loaded... Invest in precious metal (brass and lead), make sure you carry always, and be safe out there...

The video of him getting shot? That was nothing.

Look for the video of his little girl running across a TV studio and jumping into his arms. THAT was tough to watch.
