No, it shouldn’t. At the time, it was at least 30-40 minutes before anything was confirmed.

Sorry, but not true. I double checked, and President Trump (who I think is a “credible” source) had already announced Charlie Kirk’s death on Truth Social before Avi’s post. Obviously, Ari was not alert to the latest news and so posted incorrectly. His conclusion: “do better”, was therefore inappropriate.

Time will tell, but I would not be surprised if the shooter in this case is a trained pro with deep state connections and with “fake” US marshal conceal carry. So, he would have that gun even in the most strictly enforced gun free zone.

Is that all you care about? I mean I’m not a big fan of him or Israel, but have some actual respect, mourn his death as a human, not as a pawn who was there to support something

What’s wrong with reflecting upon the good Charlie has brought to the world.

Like what? Seriously though… For “the World “? I would love to hear an answer based strictly on facts and realities. This should be entertaining… lol

Both as a frum Jew and patriotic American, I am shocked and deeply saddened by his murder. Idk why Israel would be relevant to this. He was fighting for the US, moral values and open debate. He died a martyr for the country.

It’s not that he was a pawn it was just something about him that stuck out to a lot of Jews. I’m sickened and devastated. I loved his videos. He was all around just a good person and doing amazing work. America lost someone great.

True. He was a voice of moral clarity in a world that doesn’t care about truth.
Very sad.

This is the tolerant left. They can’t beat us with logic, so they have to resort to murder.

Let’s make this point clear, to all those who say that this could have been prevented by abolishing second amendment…
This was done by highly trained and talented sniper – one shot from 200+ yards. Most likely former special forces. High power rifle and perfectly tune scope like that can’t be bought over the counter in Walmart! People behind this political assassination don’t follow laws. They are Marxist DEEP STATE, that just made every prominent right-winger a target for similar treatment…
“We the people” were just put on notice!

Actually, an intermediate shooter with a rifle can easily hit a man sized target from 200 yards

A child with an hours training could make that shot with a 30 odd 6 and iron sights. Stop watching fauda.

This must be a Pro; it was too clean; he took one shot!
Remember CK got hit in an artery in the neck, the narrowest part of the body. This shooter knew that there is no reason to follow up with second round!

Intermediate shooter would have shot a second and third round because he did not hit the head.

Child would have emptied a magazine just to make sure.

Very sad news, and even sadder to know that his children will grow up without their father, and his wife without her husband. And the tragic video is online for them to potentially see one day in the future. So very sad.
