I absolutely refuse to watch the video of Charlie Kirk getting shot, but that means I didn’t have the context to know what happened just before he was shot. I just found that out on Wikipedia:
Audience member: Do you know how many transgender Americans have been mass shooters over the last 10 years?
Kirk: Too many.
Audience member: Okay, well—[crowd cheers]—it’s five, okay. Now, five is a lot, right? I’ll give you some credit. Do you know how many mass shooters there have been in America over the last 10 years?
Kirk: Counting or not counting gang violence?
Audience member: Great—He literally died while misleading people.
Yeah. There were, for the record, 7 mass shootings in the week leading up to this (non-mass) shooting. 30 victims not appearing in the news, and I want to hear why they’re not as important.
