A man attacked the husband of congresswoman Nancy Pelosi with a hammer, almost killing him. Charlie Kirk laughs about it. He says anyone who bailed out the attacker would be a great patriot (files.catbox.moe)

You're saying that as if this is a violent uprising, as if it's damage enough to stop any oppression. We used to have a man who might've asked to keep some progressives alive to debate them. In his place is fodder for those who would not.

"They were going to do it anyways" is not reason to help their believability.
