Yesterday, I published The Geometry of Blindsides, my small-picture take on the death of Charlie Kirk.
Today, I want to do what I didn’t do then.
This is my big-picture take on Charlie Kirk’s death. I have two points to make.
The first point is for those on the right declaring, in their grief, that this means war. Whether or not war is the correct answer to “What is the current state of things?” is above my pay grade.
But I do need to point out something almost nobody is taking seriously enough.

BTW, consider the actual text of the Star Spangled Banner.
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore
That the havoc of war and the battle’s confusion,
A home and a country, shall leave us no more?
Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps’ pollution.
No refuge could save the hireling and slave,
From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave,
And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave,
O’er the land of the free, and the home of the brave.
And the following:

By the way, the killer was a sociopaths, not a psychopath. A sociopath is made. He listens to or sees things that makes him do demonic things. A psychopath is in it for himself. He is like a wolverine or a mountain lion. Survival and self gratitude is all he wants. This guy was created by the media. MSNBC and other media outlets justified the killing of Charlie to this guy. Its not that you need to read between the lines. They say he is evil. So a guy like this thinks he is a hero when he kills Charlie.
And the warning is valid.
However, the left is openly grooming and encouraging these kinds of killers.
Like the puppies raised up to be attack dogs in Animal Farm.
Or, more literally, like Mao's Red Guards.
Their strategy has been to kill the leaders and thought leaders (or try to), and to not EXPLICITLY target individual small fry, but to allow random killers of small fry to go free without penalty.
Ostensibly for "racial justice" (See Critical Race Theory) but literally behind the scenes both pour encourager les autres to demoralize us and throw red meat to inflame and desensitize to killing, their base.
Judging by the school teachers, they've succeeded.
William Ayers was behind most of the Communist takeover of education.
Good point. Demon possessed sociopath sum up Tyler and all the persons who celebrate Tyler’s demonic act.
She has a point.. if this “tips into war”, our side should be clear about what that means.
But I think her point is somewhat moot - the other side has already tipped this into war - our side has no choice but to fight or to surrender.
A war is coming. There is no preventing it. In many ways, it is already here. It’s exactly what the Globohomo’s want and have planned. There will be no winners. You already see them preparing in Europe and China. Nobody wants peace, except for Trump.
And even if you have an underground bunker with a years worth of food, coming out of your lair when it is safe, the previous world will be gone.

Former gossip-columnist writer. I've read the entire article before commenting. She's talented alright. Leftist scare tactics. Ignore.
Go upthread and re-read the 3rd verse of the Star Spangled Banner.
As James Woods (IQ of 170) posted a couple of days ago — one more killing means Civil War.
And as someone else posted — our side has the ex military who know how to plan in advance, using OPSEC instead of posting on their phones to all their friends, and how to kill from a distance and make a safe getaway.
And I suspect people like that will not waste time on the small fry.
You forgot already after only three days?
Bkmk
That Bill Ayers guy again!
He’s to good Americans as Khan was to Captain Kirk.
In the valley below my house, the coyotes call at night.
Except, they aren’t just coyotes anymore — they’re hybrids, part wolf, part coyote, something harder to categorize and harder to fight. You rarely see the whole pack at once. More often, you hear them — a scatter of calls, laughter that isn’t quite laughter, an echo that makes you realize you are surrounded without ever seeing the circle close.
That’s how it feels watching society now. A few flashes here and there — a stray comment from a leader, a celebration of someone’s death online, an act of violence that shocks the headlines. But those are just the howls. The pack itself is much larger, and mostly hidden.
We tell ourselves these are lone actors, isolated incidents, the occasional bad apple. It’s easier that way. But what if they aren’t? What if the noise we hear is only a signal of something already embedded in the landscape — something hybrid, adaptive, thriving in the margins where we least expect it?
The hardest part isn’t hearing the howls. It’s realizing they mean it. That the laughter isn’t parody, but hunger. You don’t always see the pack at once, but once you recognize the pattern, you can’t unhear it. And that’s when the valley gets very quiet — because you know what comes next.
Agreed, for the weak minded folks out there, if they are convinced someone is hitlers, evil….. it is the moral thing to do to eliminate them.
For years the left , deep state, uniparty… has said openly people like President Trump, Kirk, conservatives are evil, fascists, bad people and this is what happens
Bongino used to say we think the left are people with bad ideas, the left thinks we are bad people with ideas
GOOD. Dead on.
The author sounds like someone rationalizing her terror of the psychos on the Left by convincing herself that only she is using her brain. Who the hell cares if they’ve got guns too? Who the hell cares that they’re psychos? Who the hell cares that they are all angry and willing to fight? THATS THE PROBLEM WITH THEM! When conservatives start throwing around the idea of war they KNOW what they are saying. The Left have been waging war largely unopposed for all of my life. The Right are beginning to wake up.
Did people who publicly praised the CEO killer online end up getting fired from their jobs?
And will public online supporters of Tyler continue to be fired from their jobs?
chills lol
It is a piece I am working on. that’s the opening paragraphs and the likely ending...
no more lone wolves rhetoric...
