He was literally lying about mass shootings when he was shot:

Immediately before the shooting, Kirk was taking questions for an audience member about mass shootings and gun violence.

“Do you know how many transgender Americans have been mass shooters over the last 10 years?” an audience member asked. Kirk responded, “Too many.”

The questioner followed up: “Do you know how many mass shooters there have been in America over the last 10 years?”

“Counting or not counting gang violence?” Kirk asked

Then a single shot rang out.

Sometimes in the future...

"Mummy, what kind of man was Daddy?"

"Well... His final words were 'Counting or not counting gang violence?'"

He died doing what he loved, making excuses for gun violence.

[–] MotoAsh@lemmy.world 0 points 12 hours ago

He wasn't making excuses. He was trying to frame trans people as the cause.

[–] jballs@sh.itjust.works 23 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Sounds like he was trying to push for taking away gun rights for trans people.

That, and then immediately dog whistling about minorities. Fuck him.

[–] InputZero@lemmy.world 2 points 9 hours ago

Well he's in hell now.

It wouldn't surprise me one bit.
