Germany’s reaction to Charlie Kirk’s killing was beyond disturbing

The cold-blooded killing of campaigner Charlie Kirk on a university campus in Utah should have been a moment of shared grief for everyone. A young father who believed in and lived by a code of free speech and debate was gunned down in front of horrified students.

As we know, the reaction of certain sections of the Left in Britain and America was appalling. If they offered sympathy it was heavily caveated and, by applying labels like “far-Right”, they appeared to suggest he had brought it on himself.

Yet here in Germany, the response of the media class was even more disturbing. They seemed to revel in it.

Congress Must Root Out Leftist Funding That Created Climate Ripe For Kirk Assassination

Charlie Kirk’s assassination was a terrorist attack meant to discourage the conservative movement. Even before authorities had suspected sniper Tyler Robinson in custody, we knew it was likely the work of a radicalized mind brainwashed by far-left extremist rhetoric so vile that he thought it was okay to kill someone.

Where does this radicalization come from? Follow the money.

MAGA supporter almost shot by deranged leftist as gunfight erupts over Trump sign

A deranged leftist has been caught on camera firing shots towards a MAGA supporter’s home after ripping a Donald Trump sign from his property.

Swain County Sheriff’s Office said they were called to a river rafting business in rural Bryson City, North Carolina, just before 6pm on September 6 to reports of gunshots.

The chaos was over by the time deputies arrived at the Paddle Inn Rafting Company, but the owner shared a video showing what happened on YouTube.

KLEIN: What hold does Nahanni Fontaine have on Wab Kinew?

My disappointment in Premier Wab Kinew could not be stronger. Why is he afraid to hold Minister Nahanni Fontaine accountable? This is not about politics; it is about standards. Fontaine posted on Instagram, celebrating that another person had “absolutely no empathy” for Charlie Kirk, a man assassinated in front of his wife and children, calling him a racist, xenophobic, transphobic, Islamophobic, sexist white nationalist mouthpiece. She dismissed his life entirely because she disagreed with his politics. That was not just a lapse in judgment. That was an elected minister celebrating the murder of a political opponent. And the Premier’s response was to ask her to apologize.

When the Preference Cascade Becomes a Flood

I’ve written before about preference cascades — where large portions of the public, often a majority, conceal their views for fear of punishment, only to reveal those views when some precipitating event takes place. Classic examples include the fall of Communist regimes, like Ceausescu’s Romania, where even Ceausescu himself thought everyone loved him until shortly before he was stood in front of a wall and shot.

Usually those happen in one direction. But in contemporary America, they’re happening in two.

The Endarkenment

We’ve entered an age of delusion, impossible longings, and ritual self-mutilation.

Asked whether she could provide a definition of the word “woman,” Ketanji Brown Jackson, Supreme Court nominee, magna cum laude at Harvard and graduate of Harvard Law, seemed perplexed: “I’m not a biologist,” she observed. Yet we are told by Jeremi Carswell, a specialist in the field, that children know perfectly well which of many genders they wish to grow up to be “from the moment that they have any ability to express themselves.”

During the 2020 pandemic, because of safety concerns, San Francisco took draconian measures to keep adults apart and children out of school, even as it promoted and protected the use of dangerous drugs by a large homeless population. That year, 257 San Franciscans died from the virus, while the number of overdose deaths climbed to 697.


I remembered this essay from 2024 and it seems even more appropriate in light of events. We face an enemy that is willing to kill to protect its delusions.

Donald Trump blames huge ‘barrier’ for stopping America from healing after Charlie Kirk’s killing… and calls for George Soros to be thrown in jail

President Donald Trump issued his most explosive remarks yet following the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, blaming the ‘radical left’ for obstructing national healing and explicitly calling for billionaire Democratic donor George Soros to be jailed under racketeering laws.

In a phone interview with NBC News, Trump said he hopes the country can recover from the shock of Kirk’s killing but swiftly shifted blame to political opponents.

‘I’d like to see it [the nation] heal. But we’re dealing with a radical left group of lunatics, and they don’t play fair and they never did.’

After Kirk’s Killing, Suspect Joked That His ‘Doppelganger’ Did It

The day after Charlie Kirk was killed, an acquaintance of Tyler Robinson’s posed a question to him in a group chat.

The F.B.I. had just released two grainy surveillance images of a skinny young man in a cap and sunglasses walking in a stairwell on the Utah Valley University campus, and had asked for the public’s help in identifying the suspect.

Tagging Mr. Robinson’s username on Discord, a messaging platform, the acquaintance attached the images and wrote “wya” — where you at? — with a skull emoji, suggesting that Mr. Robinson, 22, looked like the man being sought.

TDSB teacher allegedly showed Charlie Kirk assassination video to 10- and 11-year-olds, told students he deserved to be killed

A public school teacher has been suspended after allegedly showing a video of Charlie Kirk’s assassination to students as young as 10 in his class, authorities in Canada said.

The teacher also suggested that Kirk deserved to be killed, and gave the young students a speech about anti-fascism and transgender issues, according to a report.

“Several students from his class went home and complained to their parents, traumatized at witnessing the on-camera death, which they were forced to witness numerous times over,” a source told the Toronto Sun after the shocking incident at a school in Toronto on Thursday.

Wow! Toronto is world class!

Bill Maher Shreds the Left’s Disgraceful Response to Charlie Kirk’s Death

Bill Maher used his HBO show “Real Time with Bill Maher” Friday night to call out the disgraceful reaction from some on the left to Charlie Kirk’s assassination. The discussion, which featured Ben Shapiro, quickly turned into a defense of free speech and a condemnation of the toxic rhetoric surrounding Kirk’s murder.

Charlie Kirk’s assassination is a warning shot for Canada. Here’s why

Canadians should not take the assassination of Charlie Kirk as merely another symptom of America’s fractious politics. They should take it as a warning. The killing of the conservative activist and Turning Point USA founder is part of a dangerous pattern of political violence that has engulfed the United States in recent years. The forces behind it, including polarization, toxic political rhetoric, the corrosive influence of social media, and the mainstreaming of extremism, are already at work in Canada. If left unchecked, the U.S. normalization of violence will inevitably be replicated in this country.


Seems the anti-Zionist left and their Muslim pals have been on a violent tear since Oct 7 2023 backed by our academy and politicians at all levels.

And before that the Liberal government launched its church arson program demanding you believe the fake graves lie.

And what about those who have faced the full force of state thuggery for misgendering some pervert?

Our government commits violence when calling citizens racists for objecting to mass immigration from incompatible cultures that has caused enormous hardship to ordinary Canadians.

Trying to “both sides” the overwhelming preponderance of Left Wing Violence is just our media gaslighting us on behalf of their paymasters.

The fact is most “political violence” in Canada originates with our Political Class and the elite.

Charlie Kirk memorial service set to take place in Arizona stadium

A memorial service for right-wing activist Charlie Kirk will be held on 21 September at State Farm Stadium in Arizona, a venue which can seat more than 60,000 people.

Turning Point USA, the organisation Kirk co-founded, made the announcement on social media, inviting the public to celebrate his “remarkable life and enduring legacy”.

Kirk, 31, was shot dead on Wednesday during an open-air speaking event in Utah. His suspected killer, Tyler Robinson, was arrested on Thursday night after surrendering to police.

The moment Tyler Robinson’s dad turned him in as suspected assassin

The landscape of southern Utah has changed somewhat since the first Mormon pioneers arrived in wagons from Missouri in the mid-19th century.

Developers have gashed golf courses into the Mojave desert and the red cliffs are increasingly carpeted in fairways.

Yet over a century and a half since their first arrival in Utah, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints still maintains overwhelming influence on questions of conscience.

Bluesky is more of a cesspit of extremism than X ever was

When the news broke that conservative activist Charlie Kirk had been assassinated in Utah, the reactions were swift, the headlines were grim and the vigils began. And then, on Bluesky, the plucky X alternative once billed as a gentler, saner home for free expression, the celebrations started.

Yes, celebrations. Murder memes. Snarky quips. Open glee that a man, with two children and a wife left behind, was dead. The alleged shooter was Tyler Robinson, a 29-year-old who appears to have inscribed bullet casings with anti-fascist messages. Before this became known, the more immediate story was what happened in the digital public square after the shots were fired: a feeding frenzy of schadenfreude, performed in plain sight.

Don’t Let Leftist Media Gaslight You About ‘Political Violence’ On ‘Both Sides’

Singer Cyndi Lauper once encouraged her fans to not “be afraid” to let their “true colors” shine. Since the terrible assassination of conservative thought leader Charlie Kirk, America’s propaganda media have taken that advice to heart.

Case in point: former NFL player and now-CBS Mornings co-host Nate Burleson, who couldn’t help but gaslight Republicans about the issue of “political violence” during a Thursday interview with former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy.
