Over thirty people across the country have been fired, put on leave, investigated or faced calls to resign because of social media posts criticizing Charlie Kirk or expressing schadenfreude about the conservative influencer's assassination earlier this week, according to an analysis by NPR.

And more may be to come:

We need to add a couple more columns to this. Once fired, we need to keep track to see if any of them are re-hired, and if so, by whom.

These people should lose their jobs, and having done so, should remain unemployed. Make them social exiles from society.

I would imagine a few reporters got fired for making off the mark comments about George Floyd..Both sides needs to dial down, the idea that violence and murder fixes things is all downhill.

“Idiots are losing jobs because of idiotic social media posts they make”

I fixed the headline.

1. NPR never makes mention that much of what was posted was repeating made-up lies.
2. Much of what these NPCs posted was parroting of what they heard on MSM or was repeated by other NPCs after they parroted MSM.
3. These NPCs are suddenly participating characters and they are whining about to NPR, NYSlimes, et alii. Going along with the other a-holes made them famous and cost them this time.
4.At least NPR’s coverage isn’t as bad as the NYSlimes which attributed the firings to merely expressing first amendment opinions, rather than concerns of coworkers and bosses that they are unhinged or worse. /puke

You're right. The big talk about the Secret Service Agent Kerry O'Grady in October, 2016, who declared she would not take a bullet to protect President Trump because she hated him and his views, was NOT fired. She was reassigned and kept on the payroll. She boasted she would "take jail time" rather than save his life.

She expressed her support for Hillary Clinton and disdain for Donald Trump, stating, "I would take jail time over a bullet or an endorsement for what I believe to be disaster to this country".

When informed about the Hatch Act for political activity in her position she said: " Hatch Act be damned."

She is currently retired with full pension. Not retired related to the incident.

If you believe people deserve to be shot for their opinions, don’t cry when you get fired for yours.

“He questioned the intellectual capabilities of women and black people,”

More dishonest “journalism”. He questioned the intellectual capacities of certain black women. Maybe the authors of that article should be canned for that smear.

Murder, for political purposes is considered terrorism.

Advocating political murder is thus advocating terrorism.

Advocating terrorism is a crime.

Egregious behaviors call for strong measures.

“””By Huo Jingnan , Jude Joffe-Block , Audrey Nguyen”””


And Marco Rubio has also stated that any aliens in the USA had better keep their thoughts to themselves or they will be deported.
