    Andrew was asking the kids how this could be prevented, and this guy tried to say something meaningful. He wasn’t entirely wrong, but the right answer is simple: we have to drastically reduce access to guns and ban private ownership. When you look at countries like Australia — which implemented strict gun-control laws after the Port Arthur massacre and has had very few mass shootings since — compared with the United States, where mass shootings remain frequent, the difference in outcomes is evidence for the solution.

    alot of these comments jumping to retarded conspiracies instead of acknowledging the important dialogue this guy is bringing up about left politics. Hes really bright

    Those who support TPUSA could easily blamed this man for creating content that may have fueled the assassin or even called it 'hate speech'. But we support Freedom of speech and don't subscribe to the idea of hate speech. The left has fought for decades to criminalize hate speech and had weaponized it so effectively in colleges that Conservative voices were silenced and marginalized. That all changed in great part thanks to Charlie Kirk. If you are still a TPUSA hater and still can't accept he was fighting for your Freedom then I pray you never hold any position of power because you would be the one who supported Hitler, Stalin, Mussolini, Pol Pot and all the rest. You are in fact the evil fascist. Antifa, this means you. America will make sure you dont ever have the chance to fulfill your evil ways.

    So when someone on the left gets hurt it's by a "mentally disturbed" person and when someone on the right gets hurt, even our own people say "we" can't blah blah blah. Yeah buddy you're getting your 15 minutes of fame and some new followers, but chill with the faux rage over people not being upset a bigot's bullshit had consequences. News flash: Straight white male doesnt think guy who hates everyone but straight white males should have been targeted… Am I glad he got shot? No. Do I think people who he has become rich off of talking shit about and making their lives worse for his personal gain have the right to be like "Yeah fuck that guy". 1,000%

    It's th cognitive dissonance of Kirk's nazis fans in th comments trying to give Hunter props for being a "nice guy" for not directly calling kirk a POS and acting like they have any moral authority what so ever while completely ignoring kirk and the people in the video cheering for taking gun rights away from trans people, based on 5 trans shooters while simultaneously being the biggest demographic of mass shooters in America 😂 you can't make this up. White conservatives focus more on other peoples crime so much they literally think they don't commit any, all will usually being victimized by other white people. Let's get this straight ck was a racist POS, who got exactly what he deserved and from someone even further right then him at that. Anyone who thinks that he was a hero is just as big of a racist POS as he was. For all this talk of division, none of the blame is placed where it belongs… And that's on terrible human being like ck whose words harmed already targeted groups of people wo are already marginalized. There are plenty of bad faith actors on the left but not one takes the cake, like the sociopaths on the right. While you guys cheer for guns being an away from Trans, white males are doing most of the shooting, or about DEI which helps minorities not get looked over because racism while under qualified white people get put into positions of power, like the entire current administration, people on left cheer for universal Healthcare. There isn't a both sides are bad because there's no comparison to the disgusting rhetoric of people on the right, there will be no coming together with people who value their own privileges over human lives even at their own expense. Even the poorest white person will vote for Trump to uphold whiteness over a brown person saying they will help improve their lives. That can't be talked through, there's a lack of empathy and compassion that makes the majority of people on the right basically sociopaths who want nothing but harm to come to people who just want to live peacefuy. If you see Paradise and choose hell just because it means people you are indoctrinated into not liking for madeup reasons at that, there's something fundamentally wrong with you as a human being. I'm tired of ck fans trying to delude others into thinking they are good or neutral people, you guys are the literal worst that society has to offer and the world would be a much better place without you in it making other people's lives miserable. Also the hypocrisy of screaming about free speech until someone you don't like says something you don't like and you get offended and try to have them fired because a racist died? The whole backlash there shows that it was never been about "free speech" it's been about the right being able to say vile things with no consequences.

    Hell is full of fathers and husbands. His wife is a child trafficker and he was a white supremacist. Why would i feel bad that a shitty person got exactly what they asked for? You put out nothing but negative hateful energy and its going to eventually comeback to you. The only ones to feel bad about in this situation are this guy and kirks kids.

    That dude that was interviewed at the streetside memorial, was on SOMETHING. Pupils don't get that big on their own in the dark (especially with a light being shown on them)

    Millions of people acting like the left were responsible for his shooting. Unfortunately they would never do a second of research to find out that a Republican killed him.

    The right cull themselves with their hatred.

    I had to look up the quote the kid said, "Conflict is inevitable. Contention is a choice". Referencing Dieter F. Uchtdorf, a leader in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons).

    How did Hunter know whether it was an assassination or a mass shooting? He said, "I knew I was alright because it wasn’t a mass shooting. Hm!" I think we're going to be hearing a lot about this guy.

    Yeah we saw the video of you way before doing your grabbing your side of your head the same way you did when Charlie got shot practice and way before it happened we know who you are we know who you work for we know

    The guy with the curly blonde hair, who famously stands up, cheers and puts both arms in the air in celebration after Charlie was shot – That guy, is there with the guy who this video is about and he wasnt "debating" charlie at all. He asked a simple question about gun violence that was it. Everybody wants to glorify him for some reason and he was there with people who cheered when Charlie was shot.

    In Australia we just we dont have Guns anymore aye. And we had a big Ol shoot out in Tasmania. We said no more Guns and the rest of us said fair enough.

    Can still get a gun however mass shootings dont happen

    I wonder fucking why only 27 million people

    I lean right in terms of economics and small government/not being socialist, and controlling the borders/not supporting immigrants until our people and veterans aren't homeless. I want maximum state rights. I do not love trump but I have no faith in the democratic party. Unfortunately I'm more of liberal in terms of freedoms. I want all drugs legal, gun rights, freedom of religion and sexuality, (as long as i don't pay for gender surgery or abortions) legal safe abortions, etc. I'm very much in the center, but the behavior of the left keeps me away. Calling everyone nazis and killing people is a bad look
