Here to serve

[Nick Freitas @NickJFreitas]

I am told that as a state representative this is the moment where I'm supposed to express my heartfelt condolences and then stand in solidarity with those on the other side of the aisle as we condemn political violence and stand unified as one people.

But we aren't "one people" are we?

The truth is we haven't been for some time now, and there is really no point in pretending anymore, if there ever was.

We are two very different peoples. We may occupy the same piece of geography, but that is where the similarities seem to abruptly end.

I convinced myself for a long time that whenever the left called me a racist, a bigot, a sexist, a fascist, a "threat to democracy" for even the most innocent of disagreements, that it was simply hyperbolic rhetoric done for effect.

And now the "effect" is a widow and two orphaned children, because the left couldn’t bear the thought of a peaceful man debating them and winning.

I don’t think they realize it yet, but murdering Charlie is going to be remembered as the day where we finally woke up to what this fight really is.

It’s not a civil dispute among fellow countrymen. It’s a war between diametrically opposed worldviews which cannot peacefully coexist with one another. One side will win, and one side will lose.

Charlie tried to win that fight through argumentation, through discussion, through peaceful resolution of differences.

And the other side murdered him.

Not because he was “extreme” or “inciting violence” or any other hyperbolic slur they hurled at him. They murdered him because he was effective. Because he was unafraid. Because he inspired others and made them feel like they had a voice, that they were not alone. And he did it at the very institutions which have fomented so much hatred toward conservatives.

I don’t want to “stand in solidarity” with the other side of the aisle. I want to defeat you. I want to defeat the godless ideology that kills babies in the womb, sterilizes confused children, turns our cities into cesspools of degeneracy and lawlessness…and that murdered Charlie Kirk.

Social media is aflame right now with leftist celebration of Charlie’s death.

I wonder if any among them understand what has just happened. If there is a Yamamoto somewhere in their midst warning, that all they have done is awoken a sleeping giant.

I doubt it. I think they gave up such introspection and self-awareness long ago.

I don’t know exactly what will happen next. I just know that it won’t be the same as what has happened in the past.

There will be thoughts and prayers…Charlie would have wanted prayers. Not for himself but for those left behind and for the country that he loved.

But then there will be a reckoning.

My Christian faith requires me to love my enemies and pray for those who curse me. It does not require me to stand idly by in the midst of savagery and barbarism...quite the opposite.

So every time I feel tired, every time I feel discouraged or overwhelmed, I am going to watch the video of a good man being murdered in Utah…I will force myself to watch it…and then I will return to the work of destroying the evil ideology responsible for that and so much more.

Rest with God Charlie, your fight is over.

Ours is just beginning.

HORNS UP. THUMBS DOWN.

[Lisa Boothe @LisaMarieBoothe]

Witnessing this as I left the Trump victory party moved me to tears. These people have been slandered and demeaned. They are good people. Patriots of all backgrounds who love this country and came together to make it great again. 🇺🇸

@austin_jordan22 I had to google Tech to see if they were still playing and see if this trash talk was justified

@Slade_Sutton We shall see 🤣

[Cass Carr @Cass_Carr2]

@Slade_Sutton Finally someone else… I’ve been obsessed with that song for like 13 years ever since I heard it on a Halo 3 montage on YouTube. It legit pumps me up and calms me down at the same time, can’t explain it. Probably my most played song ever 🤣

[Cass Carr @Cass_Carr2]

@austin_jordan22 I’ve done a lot of research on this topic, we’ll have to talk in person sometime!

[Cass Carr @Cass_Carr2]

@austin_jordan22 Yeah I just believe once the tech is here, the cost savings it’s going to introduce to the average household will be all the PR it needs. It’s going to be saving families $6,000+/year, that alone will cause millions of people “try it out.”

[Cass Carr @Cass_Carr2]

@austin_jordan22 Think more like 5 years, 10 max!

[Cass Carr @Cass_Carr2]

@Justin__Benson @Josh_Benson32 @christianr_10 @kaenan21 Be sure to not make it open to the public or else I might show up and remind Josh of the “Red 2” days, but in a Spikeball version of course

[Cass Carr @Cass_Carr2]

#BetterCallSaul with another fantastic season! Anyone who enjoyed Breaking Bad I hope you’re on this show 🙌🏼

@CalebCarr_ You still wouldn’t beat it
