Charlie Kirk Shot and killed

[luthervol]

Why?

The lessons learned form tens of thousands of years of human evolution dictate it.
That and natural animal instinct.

Where was the problem?

So, it's not wrong. It's... What? Inadvisable? It's the equivalent of a dog circling repeatedly before pooping?

And also, it's dependent on time and public opinion. Let's not forget that.

Sure, what was once wrong can now be okay and what is okay today may at some point be wrong. (but the vast majority of "moral" wrongs have stayed relatively consistent over the millennia. I see no problem with that.

I suspect that you're not building your status here of VN Moral Guru Thought Leader. I really want you to do well in this upcoming VN poll. You may want to work on those answers.

There are rumors Kirk spurned Israel and walked away from big money donations so as not to be associated with them in the last month of his life. If that's true this is a kick in the face to his legacy.

Both can be true.

Man, talk about someone who went off the rails.

I thought Candace Owens was cool with the whole Blexit movement, but her views on Jews and thinking Michael Jackson was innocent?

It's amazing that the only people who Charlie told about this are antisemite podcasters, and all of them chose to wait until Kirk died to break the news.

I specifically said it was wrong - with no need for any idiotic qualifiers.
You are spinning out of control......whatever your attempt was, it failed miserably.

I've never once cared about my status here on VN.
It seems like something that is far more important to you for some reason.

I didn't say it was true, that's why I framed it as rumor.

It is odd though he distanced himself with some friends, who knows.

I think he was getting fed up with some donors pushing him different waysbut that doesn’t mean he was anti-Israel.

For those of us that believe...
Corinthians 5:8......To be absent from the body is to go and be with the Lord.

We will basically spend eternity absent from the body.

James 4:14

14 Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.

Psalm 90:10

10 Our days may come to seventy years,
or eighty, if our strength endures;
yet the best of them are but trouble and sorrow,
for they quickly pass, and we fly away.

Man, you are literally one of the most emotional posters in this forum

Seems that way doesn't it.

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

Seems that way doesn't it.

It's ok though. It's not an insult

Like I posted this morning you have a right to the 1st amendment but that right doesn't save you from suffering the consequences of what ever it is you say.

The 1A doesn't apply to your relationship with your employer.

She seemed sensible at first but pretty much turned into Kanye.

I don't even attempt to find anything by her anymore.

I'm getting more "emotional" the older I get. Maybe it's sentimental.

I’m glad Adam Carolla never sold out like Jimmy. Jimmy is the biggest putz on TV.

Was.

Why was it a good year? These are the good old days to you, based on your age, but what would be the argument for it being a good year?

Foreign policy = we were in the middle of the cold war and an actual war with conscription. . Agree. I mentioned Viet Nam. I was personally opposed to the war, and did not use my college deferment in 1971 or 72(age 19). My birthday was #130. They got to 109 in my county.
Economy = We were on the verge of stagflation. In 1970 we didn't know that.
Politically = We were a divided country. Lots of political violence. It was the war. People had turned against it, National Guard killed 4 students in Ohio.
Crime = Was really bad. Violent crime was skyrocketing compared to the previous decade. I don't recall crime, but I graduated from HS in June, and lived in a town with almost no crime. Yeah the 70s is when crime really increased.

I see the Vols were 11-1 in 1970. That's pretty good. Ugh, Bill Battle after Doug Dickey. Two decent guys. Hated Dickey for leaving.

Sorry, I just saw a comment on the side, and commented. I really failed to recognize that the discussion was about Kirks' murder. Not something that I am following.

That's the problem with the left. It's all about their feelz.

That, and they don’t like religious people who talk about it, but only if you are Christian or Jewish, everyone else is okay lol.. they just don’t want any overt signs of it, because it is ‘triggering and oppressive’

 

[LadyVolette]

I disagree completely, it's called normalization. Things tend to become standardized and applicable across districts school boards over time.

And while I'd concede at least some of the obsession is over the top, to pretend parents shouldn't care or concern themselves at all is an even more ridiculous position than obsession over it.

Parents should never be shut out of, or short circuited in the development of their children and what they are exposed to. We've conceded way too much to government.

This. What happens two counties away, you better believe someone will try it in a district near you … as a parent, I am tired of all the social experiments and introducing topics that are clearly not age appropriate, heck they aren’t even appropriate for me, and I’m in my late 40s lol

The 70's had alot of anti-right, anti-machine hate groups going on. Weather Underground, Black Panthers, New World Liberation Front, Symbionese Liberation Army and a host of others that did alot of bombing.

I was a little kid in the 70s, but I can remember things always getting bombed in Europe… the IRA, the Lebanese people, the cult of the week on the news, the Ayatollah..and we only had 3 channels.. you would think my parents would have like shut that off
