Charlie Kirks wife forgives the killer

To people who said her husband was hateful and what they preached was hateful, she just forgave the killer, as God would. Powerful speech.

The messed up young man who thought shooting man he didn't like was the answer, will go to prison and no longer be with his boyfriend. Erika Kirk no longer has her husband and her children have list their father.

No, YOU are the liar, and you're a homophobe apologist.

Charlie Kirk attacked the YouTuber Ms. Rachel for quoting Leviticus 19: “love your neighbor as yourself.” He said Ms. Rachel should also read the rest of the relevant scripture.

He referenced Leviticus - “if a man lies with another man …” is an abomination and subject to punishment. He paraphrased this as “thou shall lay with another man shall be stoned to death.”

He added that the preceding chapter affirms “God’s perfect law when it comes to sexual matters.”

He called homosexuality an “error” in that same context.

You dont want a conversation about any of this because you've nailed your colours to a revolting fundie neo nazi bigot and any criticism of him causes you to constantly deny he said any of it.

Im beginning to think you're not ok. Do you think ranting at random people on the Internet actually helps anything at all. Whether 'left' or 'right' calm dialogue is the only way forward that is likely to work and have less violence involved.

clearly is a problem with white women (and sometimes men) weaponising their femininity and tears, there are videos documenting this and many have been fired from their jobs

Are we really still doing ‘white women tears’? In the year of our lord 2025, are we still talking about ‘white women tears’?

A black man slits a white girl’s throat for no reason on a train and she quietly cries as she’s dying.

I don’t want to hear people mentioning white women’s tears ever again. Hateful language intended to scare us into silence. I won’t participate in this any longer.

I saw that poor young woman murdered by a mentally ill man on the train. The poor woman didn't know what had occurred, sat in shock, crying as she bled out. He stabbed her several times, including in the throat, she died crying, alone, it was awful.

it wasn’t Charlie that killed anyone. Why is he not free to defend the values that define an average American Christian? Why was he hated for articulating their world view?

The left should have come for a debate. Not for a murder.

The left don’t do debate.
It is ridicule, hate speech and murder as their remit.
The more they realise that no one is taking any notice of them, the more likely they are quick to flip out like a toddler.

No need to be offensive but hey you do you.

You've also missed my point but there you go, no name calling from me.

My main point is: wow, after losing her husband to a very public killing, she forgives the killer. That's all. Her speech was from the heart. You may not listen, thats up to you. Many will comment, as I suspect you have, without actually listening to her.

I’m not sure it was from the heart, though. It all seemed quite performative to me.

I guess only she really knows that. Otherwise it's just different takes on her speech. To me she struggled and wanted to do what she thought was right. At least she wanted calm, didn't ramp up the tension further. That's really positive, I wish more people would do that from both left and right.

Who are ‘they’? Why are you hell bent on labelling and pigeon holing people into ‘right’ and ‘left’? The only person gagging for attention and making bizarre unfounded statements is you.

You sound utterly deranged. Time to get off the internet and into the real world.

Doctors who help trans kids should face Nuremberg-style trials like Nazi war criminals.

Except he is talking about 'doctors' who abuse, harm, sterilise and mutilate vulnerable children for money. Those 'doctors' are dangerous scum of the worst order and damn right they should Nuremberg-style trials like Nazi war criminals! Any humane, decent human being would agree on that point.

Why is there suddenly all this frothing hysteria about children supposedly being “mutilated by surgeons,” when the same people stay silent as kids are actually shot dead in their schools and playgrounds? When children are dying in classrooms — nowhere near a doctor — Charlie Kirk shrugs and calls them “collateral damage” for the sacred Second Amendment.

So tell me, what’s the difference? Who is really killing children here? Spoiler: it isn’t doctors, it’s the far-right gun cult Charlie Kirk carries water for. He’ll whip up outrage about imaginary crimes in a hospital, but the moment children are bleeding out on the floor of a school cafeteria, he smirks that it’s the price of “freedom.”

Why is it a competition? 'frothing hysteria'. Wow, nice misogynistic language. 13 year old girls have had and are having double mastectomies in the United States. And as adults, are suing the surgeons that did it. If a person isn't 'frothing' about that child abuse, they are not real living human beings.

School shootings aren't performed by doctors who take an Oath to at first, Do No Harm. So your whataboutery is desperate and ridiculous and an attempt to change the topic. But it won't work.

Taking a colorblind approach in the justice system will lead to a disproportionate amount of African Americans in prison, and we need to be okay with that and stop making excuses for it.

It is a fact that 1 in 5 African American males will be in prison at some point in their life, versus 1 in 25 for white American males.

I’m tired of the excuses. There is a reason families choose to leave urban school districts, and it’s not down to racism. It was always the violence.

So despite being a non-Christian and pro-choice, I have voted Republican since the Trump era because I want to see harsher penalties towards crime.

You voted for a rapist in the hope that he would reduce crime?

His policies will directly lead to more crime.

SpottyAardvark · 22/09/2025 16:08

It’s not possible for me to comment honestly on this without appearing to be cynical about the sincerity & motivations of a grieving widow. So 🤐

I can’t quite work it out, something just isn’t sitting right about it for me. I just hope she’s not being puppeteered by men who will gain something from her “performative grief” and “forgiveness”.

I didn’t like Kirk or what he stood for at all, but I think the woman should be given the time and space in private to grieve.

I’m not voting who has the best character. One of our best presidents (Clinton) had bad character and one of our worst (Carter) was a very good man.

I prefer someone who will be effective in the direction I want the country to go.

Nayyercheekyfeckers · 22/09/2025 16:29

This is the trouble with religion. People interpret it as they wish. Usually men interpret it in a way that they wish to control women and others more vulnerable. The bible preachers forgiveness. Her and her husband's version of the bible also preaches that homosexuality is wrong, that men are in charge, that women shouldn't have abortions, that a woman's place is at home and much worse. She's merely modeling all those things. As a woman, of course she will be expected to forgive him. She will also be trying to turn him into a Martyre.

And one if the things Trump did on Day 1 was pardon scores of violent criminals.

Keep defending school shooters and their cheerleaders then
Kirk doesnt give a shit about kids, whether trans or just six years old and getting shot at school and neither do you. Shame on you.
