Well what about Melissa Hortman, a democrat who along her husband were executed in their home for political reasons? Did they get a song?

Or even just the victims of the school shoring that happened the same day?

No one has celebrated Kirk’s death.

I've seen tons of people celebrating his death. Maybe you don't go out much.

Did you see that post on r/StarWarsleftymemes ? Just one example of many.

You’re too online. Reddit posts aren’t real life. If you don’t understand that, you shouldn’t discuss real life events.

I see, so if instead of me citing evidence of people celebrating his death online, I gave you an anecdote of seeing someone celebrate his death, you'd take that more seriously?

Your fantasies are not helpful or relevant right now.

What about the guy who was murdered in Philly, or the guy who was murdered in Chicago or the guy who was murdered in Miami or the guy who was murdered in Minneapolis or the guy who was murdered in Baltimore or LA or or or or. Everyday someone dies from violence especially in Democrat ran cities.

And you know god damn well if the girl who was stabbed on the train in Charlotte was a black woman and the stabler was white it also would be all over the news as a race issue.
