   You know who you are.   
      
   Mike Solana at Pirate Wires:   
      
       Charlie Kirk was shot and killed yesterday. I'm praying for his   
       family. I'm also, like many of you, furious. This follows the   
       assassination of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, the killing   
       of Blackstone executive Wesley LePatner, and two attempted   
       assassinations of Donald Trump, all of which were widely cheered   
       among left-wing psychopaths online. In the case of Thompson, we   
       were made to endure weeks of healthcare discourse, not only by   
       otherwise "reasonable" left-wing talking heads, but sitting   
       politicians like AOC and Warren. Hasan Piker, who called Luigi   
       "based," has been characterized by the press, with glowing   
       editorials, as the future of the left for months. Now, pictures of   
       champagne bottles have become a popular meme on social media,   
       where influencers type "today would be a good day for it to   
       happen," meaning the killing of Donald Trump (or Elon, depending   
       on the context). I have no punchline, or any other take today. We   
       have a horrifying problem of political violence in this country,   
       and of ignoring, excusing, and, yes, celebrating left-wing   
       political violence in particular. No more. Never again. You are   
       either completely opposed to murder, or there is no more room for   
       you in public. No sexy covers for Rolling Stone, no thoughtful   
       talk show "contextualization" of your comments, no "violence is   
       never the answer, BUT." Every person complicit in this must answer   
       for their part, and all of us, moving forward, must hold the line.   
       In case you haven't noticed, we are presently in hell. It can not   
       be like this.
