When I first heard about Kirk getting capped my first thought was "Was this a anti-semetic attack?" quickly followed by "Wait, am I thinking of the right guy?" (spoiler alert, I wasn't)

I guess since conservative podcasters have flooded the market, there’s more to choose from. Let’s all hold hands and pray to St. Luigi.
It’s ok when we get shot, but oh no when it’s one of them…
Did he gish gallop into the sunset?
Aww, they could've capped two bigots in one day. Shame.

In all seriousness, the ones who should be scared the most are the people on the left from a retaliatory attack. Someone's gonna die. :/
They were going to go after us anyway.
Come on Ben! I just want to have a debate on gun control!
