Advocating for a thing to be banned is to advocate for violence against the people who do that thing; the fact that the state does the violent acts doesn't change that.
Charlie Kirk spent a good chunk of his life advocating for the abortion ban which has harmed and killed people. In my book Charlie Kirk is, at least in part, responsible for all that harm. He deserved what he got at least as much as any healthcare CEO.
FWIW I'm not advocating for either Christo-fascist podcasters or healthcare CEOs to be killed. That doesn't mean it can't be funny when it happens, though.
I think the bar for whether or not you should be please about someone's death (note that that's not the same as advocating for it) is whether that person made the world a worse or better place from the point of view of the majority.
With someone like Charlie Kirk it's easy, even by the standards of his own supporters he made the world a worse place because at least some of his supporters will have been hurt and killed by the things he supported and advocated for. After all the shooter could have decided he wanted to shoot up the crowd and in a way it would be Charlie's fault that the shooter was allowed to have a gun without a background check.
