Sounds like they didn’t arrest the shooter.

Illinois governor is blaming Trump for it.
MSNBC is now saying the shooting may have been a Kirk supporter shooting a gun “in celebration”.

Sounds like he was asked about mass shootings just as he was shot.

Briefly going Rickson… I’m wondering if that was coordinated?

Maybe he’s not really dead and the entire thing is a false flag setup?

At this point, Rickson is probably in his bunker waiting for the civil war to start…

Trump reportedly announced Kirk’s death.

I"m sure having a really rough time trying to be sympathetic at all.

Maybe we should send the National Guard to Orem?

Someone proved him wrong on his “prove me wrong” tour?

That’s exactly what I’d expect if Trump was in on the operation. Deep State and all that.

Time to round up all the white men and send them to an El Salvador gulag?

Since the white guy they initially stopped wasn’t the shooter, it sounds like we still don’t know anything about the shooter.

Reports Kirk is dead.

I’ll call it tragic.
Probably not in the sense that others might.

My thoughts were generally…you live by the sword you die by the sword.

Being pro-guns like he was just increases the probability of something like this happening.

Thoughts and prayers…

I think it was awful where his family members were reportedly in the audience and saw it happen.

You know what would have stopped this bad guy? Allowing good guys to have guns on … wait, I’m getting something in my ear from the newsroom.
