I had never heard of the name Charlie Kirk until yesterday but by all accounts he was a conservative activist who championed what he considered free speech and right-wing ideas.
As a husband and a father my first thoughts were for his wife and children but then when i began digging into his views i was not surprised to see that some of his views were as moronic and ignorant as expected for an American right winger who seem far more extreme than other nations due to the Gun and God issue there.
A quick search found that he called the Covid distancing prohibitions as a plot against Christianity, promoted claims that Trump won the 2020 election and was a victim of electoral fraud, called abortion murder that should be illegal even in cases of rape, said women should follow the biblical model in relationships and that birth control medication screws up female brains.
He claimed that the Democratic immigration policies were aimed at decreasing white demographics, called the Civil Rights Act a huge mistake and opposed gay marriage but gun rights is where he shone and was the topic of conversation when he was shot and killed.
He had said that to prevent school shootings they should employ armed guards and said last year that some gun deaths every single year is worth the cost to have the Second Amendment.
I assume he meant the death of other people and not his own.
