    i wonder if he survived, would he have changed his position on guns?

    if the shooting left him in pain for life, would he still be pushing 2A as hard…

      I kinda wish it would have left him like Christopher Reeves, but then again he’d still be able to talk and that would be bad.

        More like Stephen Hawkings**. Hard to continue touring like that.

        As much as I hate to wish that fate on anyone - I can’t think of a nicer guy for it to happen to.

        The right would reject him for being “broken”, “weak”.

    If you think things are going to be better after today, you’re delusional.

      It’ll get much worse before things get better, as is tradition.

        I may be dating myself. But, I remember posting a similar comment during the Bush administration. 😭

      Every bit helps, and everyone knows these racist, mentally unwell and hellbound assholes are cowards, so it might be enough to dissuade potential Kirks. Having said that, seeing all these English flags over here (very loud dog whistles for racism) makes me feel like nothing will change in the West (or at least in the Anglo-Saxon/Germanic West) in the short term. 😭

    I believe the actual Oscar Wilde quote is:

    “Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go.”

      For people who haven’t read Oscar Wilde, if you like witty dialogue in your stories, Wilde is top tier, and I think that’s underselling him.

        Other than The Picture of Dorian Gray, what would you recommend?

          Importance of Being Earnest is a family favorite. The film is great too

    I may not celebrate deaths, but I do watch some obituaries with glee.

    This is definitely one of them. Real “reap what you sow” vibes.

      Better vibe? The president has already put a bullseye on the “left”. I feel they wanted something like this so they can escalate the attacks on US cities.

      Honestly, fuck no. Great, Kirk is dead now. He will be replaced by 10 new sycophants and will become a martyr in no time.

      What has this accomplished?
