Trump supporter slams Charlie Kirk fans for trying to cancel celebrating liberals: 'It's freedom of speech'
UK Daily Mail ^ | September 15, 2025 | Victoria Churchill and James Gordon

Posted on 09/15/2025 5:01:38 AM PDT by C19fan

growing number of conservatives are voicing alarm over an aggressive campaign to track down and expose liberals who posted vile comments about slain activist Charlie Kirk.

Their insensitive and cruel comments have raised an internal debate about whether the retaliation effort is morally justified or dangerously hypocritical.

Among the loudest critics is conservative commentator Raquel Debono, who took to Instagram to question whether the right's efforts to get political opponents fired from their jobs are 'Christian' or even consistent with conservative values.

Anything written in a British rag is commie propoganda for the stupid and for fellow communists

Believe nothing except they will lie about anything.

“EPIC Post Explaining How Normies See Kirk’s Murder and Lefty’s Behavior After Is NOT Good... for the Left”

https://twitchy.com/samj/2025/09/15/normie-explains-how-normies-see-kirks-murder-and-it-just-gets-worse-for-the-violent-left-n2418981

“The Left just blew all their trust.

Normies see a nice guy doing a simple debate, not a political speech, not leading a rally or a riot, getting gunned down in 4k.

Then they see a bunch of people, even their friends, cheer and clap and dance. They ask why.

“Well, you see, he was evil!” they cry gleefully, eyes feral.

The normie just stares at the screen. A clean cut guy with a microphone is bleeding out horrifically. It reminds them of the scared young blonde they saw bleeding out on the subway just a few days ago. A question forms.

“What did he do that made him evil?” they ask.

“He SAID things!” they scream back, a bit of spittle flying from their mouths.

“So you are happy they murdered him....for talking?”

“YESSSS!!!! You get it now!” claps their kids’ teacher, their pilot, or their doctor.

The normie is horrified. Someone they trust their kids to, their health to, or their safety is acting like a foaming, raging lunatic who wants people dead because they said something they didn’t like.

Do you realize how this comes across?”

“2. There is a fundamental difference between expressing an opinion about an issue somebody does not like and supporting political murder. So no, its not the same. These are fundamentally different.“

Agree. It’s like yelling, “Fire!” in a crowded theatre. Dangerously malicious.

Sure, they can publicly say how they feel. Doesn’t exempt them from repercussions though. If a business wants to fire them for it, that’s their freedom of choice.

Dictionary.com
Definition of terrorism:

The unlawful use of violence or threats to intimidate or coerce a civilian population or government, with the goal of furthering political, social, or ideological objectives.

Celebrating Charlie Kirk’s death is supporting terrorism.

Oh look, the left found a useful idiot ostensibly on our side. 50/50 chance she’ll have a job as a “right wing” commentator on CNN some day, where she’ll urge capitulation in the name of civility.

Correct. Make them live up to their own rules. The left believes that THEIR words should have no consequences.

So... if it’s just free speech to Raquel Debono, let’s see her post the N-word online.

American citizens have right to speak, free of Government censorship. No one must be compelled in any way for you to exercise that right.

You do NOT have a right to be heard.

You do NOT have a right to speak to ME!

You do NOT have a right to be free from any consequences of exercising your right of free speech from non-governmental entities.

no one’s speech is being violated — however, accountability for endorsing the assassination of speech is

Right? If you’re a healthcare/public safety worker celebrating death, that doesn’t make me feel confident as a patient. Same if you’re a police officer.

It is indeed freedom of speech.

But here is the caveat.

Just because you will not be arrested and put in jail does not mean that your demented ravings leave a warm glow in the hearts of the people around you.

In fact they wonder if you are that crazy if you should be allowed near them or anything they care about.

So they contact your employer to see if they know they have a homicidal manic in their employee and what they are going to do about it.

They especially do not like to see homicidal manics in charge of sensitive systems or children.

The system is working exactly the way the First Amendment is suppose to.

So many are ignorant of the nations founding and the Constitution.

Think of the US at its founding as more like the EU.

Independent nations (”states”) uniting in common defense, uniform currency, etc.

The abiding concern was keeping the genie in the bottle. An overly powerful Federal government frightened the States. Much of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights was about limiting the Federal government, to keep the genie in the bottle.

For example, Maryland was founded as a refuge for Roman Catholics, against the extreme aspects of the Church of England. Amazingly, back at the founding, Maryland actually required office holders to be Roman Catholic.

Separation of Church and State, in those days, only limited the Federal. The Constitution bound the Federal, only. Not the States.

Same thing for freedom of speech. The Fedarals cannot limit. Individuals have no such claims over other individuals

As usual, this useful idiot is missing the point. Kirk died, lost his life, for exercising MODERATE use of his 1A rights.

The left a) shot him, and b) celebrated it. This means the same psychopathic personality that felt justified in shooting Kirk is shared and supported by the other psychopaths celebrating the assassination.

Those people do not have the mental stability to hold food service jobs (poisoning), medical (poisoning and other), education (ideological), heavy equipment (sabotage) or most other jobs.

If you support this, you are mentally defective and the rest of us require protection from you.

That useful morons on the right are seeing this as a 1A issue is typical of why the GOP isn’t relevant any more.

“And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them.” Ephesians 5:11

Employers are doing the firing. We are only exposing, as the scripture tells us to do.

Well, lol!!!

Do you really think the murderer was angry at Kirk for using the 1st Amendment?

There are millions of people doing that every day. He is on record as hating Kirk for his message. Throughout history people have been murdered because people despise their message and want to stop them. For example, Trump in Pennsylvania.
