  • At least 15 people fired or suspended for allegedly disrespecting Kirk’s memory
  • Online campaigns directed by Republicans continue to target Kirk’s critics online

WASHINGTON, Sept 13 (Reuters) - After the fatal shooting of right-wing influencer Charlie Kirk, U.S. Republicans have a warning for Americans: Mourn him respectfully or suffer the consequences.

Over the past several days, Democratic and Republican leaders have widely condemned the murder of Kirk, a 31-year-old activist and Trump world celebrity known for his hard-right views and pugnacious debating style.

    Charlie Kirk was a racist, misogynist, homophobic, transphobic, quite honestly not that intelligent piece of shit and the universe is better off now that he’s been assasinated by a member of his own group in a totally ironic way due to his calls for political violence folding back on him.

    Come at me Republicans, I stand by my stance of pointing out Kirk is a POS even after his death. Besides I’m just doing what Charlie would have wanted anyways, shown him and his family no empathy because empathy is a made up term.
