I'd never heard of him until he got shot, but read that he was a fan of americans right to bear arms,
Kind of ironic now.
He apparently said something along the lines of, we (Americans) should be willing to accept a few gun deaths a year, including victims of school shootings, in order to preserve our right to bear arms. It’s a necessary sacrifice.

This is the full quote. He never said anything about accepting victims of school shootings.
No one deserves to be killed for saying what they believe. But this flog could be a exception .
Been doing a bit of research into this bloke and for me I have change my opinion a bit . He seems to genuinely wanted the best for his country and the people

Fair enough, just watched that and he never specifically referred to deaths from school shootings. So I clearly misread that somewhere or was told incorrect information about what he said. But he inferred in his broad statement on the subject that a certain number of gun deaths is the price we pay for our right to bear arms. This would through inference include school shooting deaths and all others, well it certainly doesn’t exclude them. His analogy about cars is also stupid imo as a car’s main purpose isn’t to injure, harm or kill. Anyway, some of his views on women also appall me but none of that justifies him being murdered.

Sadly MR there are those in this world who think anyone with a different opinion should be murdered. Charlie's assassination was bad enough, but the vitriol, hate and schadenfreude coming from some afterwards is a sign of a very sick and sad society.
Dessie is more interesting than Kirk IMO
Someone killing 2 police officers in Australia where we live & still not being caught is more interesting to me than Kirk Kimmel being killed in America where we dont live.
Im not into American politics renty but I respect your original post. I probably should have started a thread on Dessie rather than comparing situation & the Kirl Kimmel situation.
Anyway tell me this will the Raiders get over Cronulla?

The US has just got worse every year for a while now. It’s one seriously scary, sad and messed up place and I just pray we don’t ever follow their path.

I can think of worse places than the US. However if I mention them given laws passed in this country recently I could end up in prison. At least in the US you can still enjoy a bacon egg roll, a beer, and your wife and daughters can still have an education and work.
