They want to justify killing you.
No really, it's as simple as that.
Yes, that is mega-successful horror author Stephen King saying that Charlie Kirk "advocated stoning gays to death" as justification for his murder.
His post was so outrageous that sitting members of Congress called publicly for a lawsuit over the statement.
What King did is frame an ideological opponent as the most extreme example of a straw man. Either unknowingly or purposely, he lied about who Kirk is in order to better justify the shedding of blood. If this was not the case, then woke men like Stephen King would have some level of congruity in their worldview. Instead, their beliefs are so screwed up that they accuse normal American dudes of wanting to stone gays while also supporting the people who actually do want to stone gays.
As many people have said in the last 48 hours, Kirk was the moderate option. His entire mission was to have dialogue with people who disagree because the moment a nation stops talking, national divorce is inevitable.
As for Kirk's views on gays, please stare directly at this and tell me if it lines up with Stephen King's version of reality:
It should be shocking to see such a willful misrepresentation of who Kirk was. And yet, across the Western world, everyone from local schoolteachers to BBC newscasters have lied and lied and lied some more about a man who was shot in front of a crowd of people, including his own wife and kids.
For years, the Left has compared normal, average American men and women to Nazis and their leaders to Hitler. They do it daily. They whip themselves into a frenzy, reassuring their compatriots that they are fighting against fascism.
The outcome of such rhetoric is baked into the cake. It always has been. Kirk's assassination was simply the outpouring of a single, focused wish:
To kill you, your family, and everyone like you. Have you forgotten that they went crazy in July because of a simple Sydney Sweeney jeans ad?
If you haven't noticed, they hate a British feminist who wrote a children's series about good fighting evil because she doesn't want men in the women's bathroom.
J.K. Rowling nails it: The people arguing with her are not interested in being tolerant, open-minded, welcoming, or finding common ground so that we can move forward together.
They want to conquer and kill, but they need to dehumanize you in order to sear their consciences for the job.
In the wake of this assassination, many people are trying to cool the temperature. Many people are calling for peace and unity. The impulse is good, but lambs cannot have peace with wolves that want to kill them.
Have you ever heard that ancient children's tale?
Calling for a superficial "peace" when people are rightfully hurt is also unjust and unkind. Per Jeremiah 6:14:
They dress the wound of my people as though it were not serious. ‘Peace, peace,' they say, when there is no peace.
We do need to have unity. We do need to find common ground. We need to pray and encourage each other and welcome each other.
But this unity cannot include those who want to kill us. Have the same people saying we need to go back to 2012 forgotten that in 2012, those people labelled Mitt Romney, perhaps the most liberal Republican in the Senate, an extremist who wanted to put black people "back in chains" and left people destitute with cancer by shutting down a steel plant?
In this way, Kirk's murder actually provides us with a roadmap and a litmus test toward unity. As Kirk himself said years ago:
Anyone who sees Kirk's assassination as an abject evil and mourns his death despite any philosophical differences is an ally. Anyone caught celebrating his death or justifying it by claiming he was a fascist cannot be an ally.
Put aside the labels of Republican and Democrat or the 200-year-old understanding of "Left" and "Right" in Western politics. Kirk's death serves as another milestone in a transition to a different kind of political divide entirely.
Can you live among people who believe and vote differently from you? Do you want to see the best for people you don't particularly like, or at the bare minimum, not wish pain and suffering on them?
Then welcome! Glad to have you!
We cannot live with these people, they believe anyone who disagrees with them should be destroyed - we either geographically separate from them, they go their way and we go ours, free to rule over our own and they theirs as they see fit, or we will have even more killings and violence.
I read all of his books. He is a good author. But a lousy human. I wish I had the time back that I wasted on this person’s writings.
That bullet was fired against the American way of life. It was fired at all of us. Tyler Robinson is a loser. His sorry life is finally over.
The shooter claimed one victim, but leftist ideology claimed two. The government MUST attack leftist ideology and erase it from this country, or we will be revisiting this horror endlessly.
Many on the radical left adore Che Guevara. You can buy shirts and posters with his picture on Amazon.
“To execute a man we don’t need proof of his guilt. We only need proof that it’s necessary to execute him. It’s that simple.”
-Che Guevara
I enjoyed the Firestarter.Never cared to read the others.
Sick man.
Charlie Kirk was a civil rights leader, and they killed him.
R.I.P. Charlie Kirk. Thanks for your work.
There’s no unity with the party that openly encourages violence. The Democrats openly deny God. The Constitution was created by and made for a moral people. It’s clear that Democrats have no respect for God, morals or the Constitution.
The effective ones usually are..............

A party that that values and supports the murder of societies most vulnerable and innocent, their reactions to Charlie’s murder shouldn’t surprise anyone.
They are “People of the Lie.” Just like Muslims, they believe their cause warrants lying in the furtherance of it.
Stephen King can burn in hell. He is nothing but a worthless bully.
Im not sure if charlie’s wife will sue king or not, but someone definately should. The left have gone too far and its time to fight back by bankrupting those that slander the good name of others with obvious lies
Depravity,
Total Depravity.
Not a bully.
COWARD.........................
In my house we are having a National Holiday and remembrance of Charlie Kirk on October 14 from now on.
