They Murdered Charlie Kirk and They Must Pay
Townhall ^ | Sep 10, 2025 | Kurt Schlichter

Posted on 09/10/2025 7:21:03 PM PDT by mairdie

This may be the hardest column I’ve ever written, one where I’m so angry that it’s hard for me to put my words into a sequence that’s both coherent and not profane. They murdered Charlie Kirk today. They shot him dead because he dared to exercise his right as a human being to speak freely – contrary to what Democrat senators insist, our rights do not come from government but are endowed within us by our Creator. So, this was not merely a crime against one man, or against his beautiful family, but against both this country and our God.

And it will be righteously avenged.

... He’s not going to be forgotten. They may have killed him, but they’re not going to kill the movement he started. Oh no, they don’t get to win. They don’t get to murder their way to victory. They don’t get to scare us, intimidate us, or decapitate our movement. We’re going to double down.

No, we’re going to triple down.

This should have been fully wiped in the bud decades ago.

“Democrat senators insist, our rights do not come from government but are endowed within us by our Creator.”

He’s got this exactly backwards from what Senator Tim Kaine stated.

He says “contrary to what” at the beginning of the sentence.

I heard a missing [might] and [but] so fixed it in my head. You’re right, he messed up. He said early on, and proved it, that he’s having trouble writing because he’s so emotional.

Democrat senators [might] insist, [but] our rights do not come from government but are endowed within us by our Creator

And I should have gone back into the original article. Thanks for the correction.

When they do find this killer, I want him tried and convicted and the second he is convicted, for President Trump to bring him out in front of the town square and ask him “How do you want to die tonight, electric chair, hanging, or bullet to the face, your choice” and do it that night, that simple

Yeah, I read it several time to be sure I was reading it correctly. To make such an error at the very beginning of your argument is a rather embarrassing screw up.

His quote had these words before your excerpt: contrary to what

the missing words make the statement a correct reflection of the commie left beliefs.

If those in authority want to evaporate their credibility in an instant, just tell us that this was a lone assassin with no connections, support, or assistance from anywhere or anyone else.

I have no doubt that the traitorous Enemedia will spout such satanic lies, but the Enemedia haven’t had even an iota of credibility for decades.

Yes. McCarthy warned. The JBS warned. Not enough people listened.

Another brilliant Kurt Schlichter column saying everything we want to say, but saying it better than we could.

I disagree with Schlichter's naive perspective in this column:

We will be tempted to hit back to hurt people who’ve hurt us. That’s not the way.

The entire cycle of human history is a period of peace followed by a period of great violence and we're entering one of those periods of war and armed conflict.

Tolstoy wrote, "You may not be interested in war, but war is interested in you." That's War and Peace in a nutshell and where we are today.

I want to see the murderer hung by the neck - publically. And with no damn black hood oer his head - because I want to see the horror on his face as the trap door drops from beneath him.

I want to see his eyeballs pop out of their sockets, as the rope snaps his cervical vertebrae like dry twigs.

I want to see the blood spurt out his mouth as his larynx is crushed.

And I want to see his corpse flinching as the last of his demon brain’s nerve impulses fade away.

And finally, I want to see the demons come up from the depths to snatch his soul to Hell.

THAT is justice.
