No event has exposed the difference of America’s left from right more so than the death of conservative pundit Charlie Kirk this past week. Many on the right went into deep shock and grief as they witnessed a person they considered a true man of God and truth teller of reality die before their very eyes. The left posted with delight and glee over the death of a man they considered their evil opposition evil with no regard for respect for the dead or loss of the grieving.

Simply put, the right cherished Charlie Kirk as he put God and country first which is what many of them want to do. The left hated Charlie Kirk because in debate forums he systematically dismantled their positions and narrative with ease. The left accused Kirk of making fools of them when in actuality, they made fools of themselves. If you embrace a position that is virtually indefensible (i.e. men can have periods and babies) you are going to end up looking foolish after anybody comes with receipts to challenge you.

For many who remained neutral without taking sides they marveled at how Kirk was seemingly like a walking Bible of the Lord and book of American History. As our youth say today, “He brought the receipts”, but in the case of Kirk, all of those receipts were in his head. Sure, you could fact check him, if you wanted, but you would find out he was right every time.

So as both sides seemingly prepare for an all-out civil war after the “shot heard around the world”, lists are being made by both sides.

However, those lists are not the same. Before Charlie Kirk’s body was even cold, the left began making lists of famous conservative personalities they want to see get shot next.

The right began making lists of these people making such statements on the left. The intent of the right was not to kill them but to get them terminated from their jobs for being highly inappropriate if not actually insane.

About this same time memes came up showing how the left protested showing cities of America burning after the death of George Floyd contrasted with prayer vigils held in stadiums after the death of Charlie Kirk with the simple caption, “WE ARE NOT THE SAME.”

Doing the math, no more conservatives have been murdered since Charlie Kirk in America but 100s of liberals have been fired and/or disciplined for their lack of decorum online and/or on the job since his death.

Once again, the age old lesson proves true, “Actions have consequences.”

A news story broke just this morning that American and Delta airlines have “REMOVED FROM SERVICE” employees who made disrespectful comments or posts about the death of Charlie Kirk. Some of those employees were said to be pilots.  

CONCLUSION:

We heard a story we could not source but found very interesting.

The story goes Democrats have had over 10 million voters leave their party since the last General Election of 2024 and most of them left because of the Charlie Kirk assassination and the left’s response to it. While it is true the Democrats were hemorrhaging support before the shooting in the millions, and that has been documented (even on CNN this summer), we cannot prove the 10 million number recently thrown out in the last few days.

What makes us think this could be true, however, is numbers which came out from Turning Point U.S.A. since the Kirk assassination. Charlie Kirk had 1.7 million followers before his death and now has over 11 million followers today.

Interest in Charlie Kirk is not just national but global now. He has grown larger in his presence after his death than when he was alive. This might well be what his wife Erika Kirk meant when she spoke the other night saying, “If you thought my husband’s mission was powerful before you have no idea, you have no idea what you have just unleashed across this entire country and this world. You have no idea.”

My father raised me with an old expression, “If you can’t say something nice about somebody, keep your mouth shut.” Democrats today should have had my father as their father. Case in point:

“I literally have never said anything to invoke violence! And I challenge somebody to go and find a clip of a Democrat invoking violence.” – Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX)

Also Jasmine Crockett:

My fear is there will come a time and a day in this country when American patriots of the right will indeed pick up a weapon and respond to the aggressors of the left screaming at them as well as all three branches of American government, lawmakers, justices and executives, “If you aren’t going to do anything about this, WE, THE PEOPLE, will!”

As the Bible says, “An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.”
