Freedom of speech and the Kirk murder.
Sep 14^th, 2025 at 11:56am

The First Amendment protects freedom of speech but just as other Amendments are ignored for convenience it is being thrown out with the dishwater.
People who have expressed satisfaction over Charlie Kirk’s murder are being hunted on the internet, their identities and their details extracted and then published and/or sent to their employers, thus resulting in many losing their jobs.

I can’t bring up any direct links for some reason but Google ‘’sackings over kirk murder opinions ‘’ and they will appear.

What a charade for democracy.

What is your grievance here, people don't have freedom of speech for their hatred of Kirk or the freedom of speech to call out those using hate speech against Kirk.

While you were posting I was doing a modification looking for a link that I could post, see above for clarification.

They exercised their freedom of speech and their employers exercised their freedom to fire a CeeUNextTuesday.

At least they weren't shot in the jugular by a far left indoctrinated tranny rooter.

Next?

The lefties will sack you for calling a transvestite man a "he" - i.e. for not lying.

But now, suddenly, when they are celebrating murder, they are free speech absolutists. Their hypocrisy, like their stupidity, is breathtaking.

Huh

Opposing his views are fine. Celebrating his death is also freedom of speech and an employer has every right to fire someone for being a wankbag.

But it's okay for Trump to say he can go out on a street in New York City and shoot someone and not lose any votes but probably gain votes, right?

Not even you think that your response is in anyway comparable.

That is TDS having as effect on your thinking. you have a responsibility for your own speech regardless of what Trump thinks says or does.

They lose their jobs for their opinions celebrating a mans murder.

Charlie Kirks loses his life for his opinions

and you think that is a fair comparison in making a constitutional point on democracy?

Shame on you.

Either was Kirk.

He was shot by a far-right, MAGA, white, Christian extremist.

I disagree, I think it's perfectly fine to rejoice someones death but consequences such as the resulting unemployment are also fine.

Freedom of speech and non-violent repercussions are perfectly compatible.

Kirk is dead - they're alive

They weren't merely opposing his views - one of them killed him whilst many others have celebrated Kirks death.

what's your point?
