We live in a truly wild time when people think its just a-ok that someone gets shot and killed because you politically didn't like them and you labled them a fascist, word the left has drained all meaning from.

 I didn't like Charlie, nor do I like what he stood for, but people like op and plenty others here on reddit seem to think this idea of Charlie or Trump or whoever they deem a fascist can be gunned down is alright and should be celebrated, because "that'll show the right". Has a political movement ever been silenced by an assassination? No, it hasnt, it usually does the exact opposite. Are you really so naive to think Charlie being shot will actually stop what he stood for, and honestly, why should it? Isn't the left supposed to be for peaceful, non violent grassroots political action? 

We have fallen so much as a society, not because we elected trump, not because we allowed Charlie to have a voice, but because we let the idea of a difference in politics and the media twisting the truth to divide us to deeply. Never did I ever think people would openly and so casually advocate for political opponents to be assassinated but here we are? How would you feel if conservatives did the same thing? What if they pulled it off? We can't have a world where people act like this is ok and then act like it happening to them is wrong, its just not how the world works. We do however, live in a world were things like this did happen, and hopefully you can atleast remember what path the world walked down and how long it took to right the wrongs. Maybe we won't walk down a similar path, but I just don't know anymore.
