You don’t have sympathy for a non-violent public figure being brutally murdered at a speaking event on campus? That’s messed up.

Fwiw, I don't think anyone should ever be killed, but nobody's entitled to anyone's sympathy, and it's not messed up that many people find it difficult to sympathize with Kirk, given the political positions he preached.

For example, maybe (or maybe not) for you it's just an abstract argument about far-away matters, but when Kirk called Leviticus 20:13 (the one about killing men who lie with men) "God's perfect law", it's not so abstract to gay people.

I don't celebrate his death, I fear the consequences it will most certainly bring (especially with the hot mess going on in the US), but given his evidenced lackluster attitude to tens of thousands of gun victims every year in the US alone, a kick in the face to the relatives of all the victims and their families, yes I do not feel a single shred of smypathy for him.

some people would not consider his hateful rethoric as non-violent, and his words had and will have violent consequences for other people
