Far right politico Charlie Kirk just shot in the neck in Utah 20:24 - Sep 10 with 5292 views | ElderGrizzly | Was speaking at a University event and appears to have been shot (from distance) in the neck. And actually shot, not the Donald Trump kind. Horrific whatever your political views and has no place in politics |  | | |  |

Death, fighting, war and the wider theatre of power show how quickly rhetoric turns to ruin. We are a fleck on a small blue rock floating through the universe acting like the bloody cosmos is keeping sodding score. For all we know, we are the only “intelligent life” (yeah right!) about...and we actively choose to do sh*t to each other. Whatever flag we wave, violence solves nothing; it only multiplies grief. Let’s choose restraint over rage, care over point-scoring, and the stubborn, unfashionable decency that keeps human beings alive. I fecking despair. |  |

Far right politico Charlie Kirk just shot in the neck in Utah on 21:04 - Sep 10 by textbackup | I’m flicking through twitter, with no knowledge of what’s happened, and a video comes up. Not that I need to explain how I came across it. I saw it once, and it’s horrendous. I won’t be watching again. And no I don’t, Gaza and what is happening is of absolutely no interest to me. The freaks constantly banging on about it, waving that flag, get on my tits if truth be told. Sure that will go down well on here. |
Your second paragraph is surely some sort of joke texters? Please tell me there's a big woosh coming my way. |  |

Far right politico Charlie Kirk just shot in the neck in Utah on 21:02 - Sep 10 by ElderGrizzly | Absolutely disgusting, I agree. He also spoke out very openly about not seeing school shootings and the deaths of children as a reason to tighten gun laws. The whole USA is a mess and there will be something equally horrific to ‘avenge’ this. |
Indeed: “It’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment” |  |

Didn’t go out of my way, just showed up on the timeline on Twitter. |  |

There really isn’t. As I say, probably not a popular opinion, but it’s mine, and I’ll own it. Which is why I tend to not comment on it, as I’d rather just stick to football on here. |  |

Whether you're interested or not, caring about genocide doesn't make someone a "freak". |  |

If only he'd had a gun he would have been fine! |  |

You just can’t make this stuff up. And sadly we don’t have to. Because America is really idiotic and backwards in many ways. |  |

Far right politico Charlie Kirk just shot in the neck in Utah on 21:02 - Sep 10 by wrightsrightglove | Undoubtedly, and also further polarising people’s political views. It seems that there’s very little ‘agree to disagree’ in the world anymore, so many people believe their view is the only correct one and everyone else is wrong which then leads to this kind of incident. Feels like the world has lost the plot |
To be fair, not sure I would have much to "agree to disagree" on with Charlie Kirk. He's a white nationalist |  | |  |

I mean they aren’t all freaks of course, but some of those I’ve seen clips of certainly are. |  |

People banging on about 60k+ innocent people being killed by an out of control regime and the systematic dismantling of an entire homeland gets on your tits? Wow. I really thought I'd missed the joke somehow. How thoroughly depressing. What do you care about? |  |

Never seen or heard of Charlie Kirk until tonight. Like most things on Twitter it was on the FYP because a lot of people were interacting/talking about it. |  |

Yeah, everyone has things that they care about/for, that just isn’t high on my list of things to concern my life with. Would it change the situation if I did? Nope. What do I care about? (In no particular order) Town, my friends, my family, my dogs, England when they play in major competitions, doing my best/working hard in my job. Probably missed. Few things off, but a quick snapshot there as you asked. |  |

America is in a seriously bad place, you wonder if this could devolve into some sort of civil war. When you have a government that preaches violence and hatred, it makes events like this much more likely. |  | |  |
