I wasn’t a follower of Charlie Kirk, but when I owned a company, my personal politics apart, I’d critically think about firing any worker expressing pleasure at his assassination (“Left Won’t Staunch Bleeding,” Karol Markowicz, Sept. 17).

It’s acceptable to see people rejoice within the death of despots, and there have been many within the historical past of mankind. But Charlie Kirk?

You would count on the vile, disgusting celebration of Charlie Kirk’s homicide from the mouth-breathing slugs at MSNBC or CNN. What’s actually troubling is that the identical celebration can be coming from academics.
One can solely think about the indoctrination occurring in in the present day’s public-school systems: You condemn a man to death since you don’t agree with what he believes in? This is actually Satan’s work.

What is unsuitable with these people? Cheering for somebody’s homicide is cold-hearted and evil.
As far as these lefties on the web are involved: Investigate them and see that they lose their jobs.

Kimmel attacked President Trump for scoring political factors, and he lied to his viewers about Kirk’s shooter’s political leanings, proving that the condolences he beforehand expressed have been utterly insincere.
Carr ought to have simply moved out of the way in which, and let this narcissistic hypocrite stroll his show off the cliff all on his own.

Jimmy Kimmel is an worker of ABC. As an worker, it’s essential to adhere to company insurance policies.
If he spouts offensive phrases and lies, his employer has the best to terminate him. Otherwise, we might all go to work and inform offensive, sexual, racist and ethnic jokes underneath the veil of “free speech.”

Kimmel might have finished his typical Trump-hating monologue and he wouldn’t have been suspended. But he selected to accuse MAGA of murdering Charlie Kirk.
If you’re going to accuse a group of homicide, you higher have proof. He deserves to be fired.
