For the time being we certainly at least still seem to be allowed, legally, to joke about it. That said…
Worried about Stewart & Colbert & those kinds of folks. Imagine 0.00[…]1% of the deranged out there would be incensed by humor about “their” guy so I personally might not find the average joke at Kirk’s expense to be worth it. (Logic: political commentator on right is killed, those on left make jokes, guy on right gets super upset and kills a late night host on the left in part b/c a straw broke the camel’s back)
On the side of those were alive I like speaking truth to power. For those who are no longer alive I like remembering their character (e.g. “purported free-speech proponent, marred by alleged issues of intellectual honesty, …” or something).
btw
btw hopefully I personally living in a way simply “remembering my character” isn’t offensive/shocking
