    If some Karen ass white woman can object and the event is shut down, is that really free speech?

        Most people I know didn’t even know Kirk was married until his assassination planner window* started making the news screeching about how much of a saint he was.

              A spelling mistake that bad deserves some shade.

                It’s curtains for me.

                I guess I’d better frame my next comment differently!

      What should worry us all is that it happened and will happen again and doesn’t seem like anything is successful at stopping it.

        History is cyclical. And that’s why conservatives are adamant about removing our ability to understand it.

          “Those who ignore history, are doomed to repeat it.”

          It’s supposed to be cautionary, but for conservatives, it’s a game plan.
