The man lived and died by his words.

Betcha he wouldn't have been willing to die if given a choice, though. That's for other people to do. Well, now he's "other people."

I think this quote is him explicitly saying he'd be okay with his own death too.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I don't. He gave Farquaad vibes.

he grifted by his word, and died by his grifted words.

@mechoman444 @jballs Liberals do not understand integrity. So many are laughing because he died by one of the very rights he fought to preserve. The truth is, I don't think Charlie would change his stance on the 2nd Amendment today, if we could ask him.

What he said was true. You drive cars and there are accidents and intentional homicides regularly. Why aren't you fighting to get cars off the streets? Kids die from alcohol poisoning. Let's get rid of alcohol. Use your brains, people. #liberal

Lol! Fantastic. This is wonderful thank you so much for commenting.

So the big argument is cars and alcohol? Brilliant. Because when was the last time someone walked into a classroom holding a Toyota Corolla in one hand and a bottle of vodka in the other?

Cars exist to get people from point A to point B. Alcohol exists to drink. Guns exist to kill. That is the design. Pretending they are all the same is a false equivalence.

We also happen to lead the world in school shootings and active shooters. Canada, which looks a whole lot like us culturally and legally, manages fewer gun deaths per capita. Maybe the problem is not cars or booze. Maybe the problem is metal health. Because guns at the end of the day are just tools used by humans.

@mechoman444 Guns do more than kill. They are used for sport as well. But I would agree that killing is their main purpose. They are simply tools. People use all manner of tools to kill people. I would rather address the hatred and desire to kill. Then the tools would not be used.

Ya man. Mental health. Your boy Charlie was big in putting homeless people and transgenders in insane asylums.
