His death was hilarious and I'm glad it happened
I have a hard time celebrating anyone's death (there are a few I'm looking forward too though), but it's hard to classify Kirk's as undeserved. Hell, he preemptively justified his own death in that golden quote about "some shooting deaths are necessary in order to uphold the 2nd amendment".
I personally don’t think people should be shot for things they say. I think watching an old, decrepit Kirk fade into obscurity would be a lot more satisfying.
The problem with that is the decades he would continue to sow discourse and spread hate.
On one hand I agree, there could have been worse outcomes for him that he would have deserved, but on the other hand it is good that he can no longer cause any more harm himself
I'm not celebrating, but the world is objectively a better place without him
Every time I do it makes me laugh, How did his shirt get so red, And what the hell is up with Charlie's head?
Counting or not counting gang violence?
