This should be paired for contrast, as often as possible, with a collage of right-wing poster reactions mocking, minimizing or disputing the murder of Melissa Hortman and her husband.
Well interestingly I could not find Kirk saying anything about Melissa Hortmans killing. That day is chock full of huge boner post for Israel Iranian War. When another shooting happened a day later he said (excerpt):
With lots of decoration, projection and minimization around this tidbit. Full text
Edit: I'm aware Boelter turned out to be more of a Christo-Fascist. That's why I found Kirk immediately blaming "the left" without knowing anything so weird.
It was a really popular conservative conspiracy that Vance Boelter was a Democrat. Conservative talking heads know their base won't do any fact checking, so they made up a narrative and their audience ate it up. I bet many of them still believe Boelter was a Democrat, despite all evidence to the contrary
They asked people to not protest over this, in order to keep them safe. The protesters didn't listen.
By contrast, Ben Shapiro canceled his event TWO STATES Away in California because he was afraid of the event in Utah.
These cowards are such trash. They talk this HUGE talk, then a warm breeze threatens to melt them. I can't believe their party originally coined the "snowflake" term that so perfectly describes them.
