I will explain to you why the killing of Charlie Kirk pushes me to the right.
He had the exact same views as my Trump supporting parents who I love. He had the exact same views as half my extended family. Just regular Boomer conservatism.
And thousands of leftists celebrate him being shot in the neck and bleeding out in front of his three year old daughter.
If they want that for Charlie Kirk, they want that for my parents and my other loved ones.
And I won’t stand for it. Because I’m not a suicidal spiteful mutant with hatred for my own family, my own parents, my own civilisation.
I love the people who raised me and I’m loyal to them and I won’t ally myself with people who want to murder them just because they have old fashioned values that were completely common throughout 99% of modern history - a love of faith, family, church, nation.
The murder of Charlie Kirk is a tragedy, and a sign of the utter desperation and cowardice of those who could not defeat him in argument. Charlie Kirk has been killed not for espousing extremist views - because he didn’t. He has been killed for saying things that used to be simple common sense. He has been killed because he had the courage to stand up publicly for reasonable opinions held by millions and millions of ordinary people both in the US and Britain. The world has a shining new martyr to free speech.
Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones.
Not many people love the game of football the way you do. Watching this chapter close hurts, but seeing the strength, heart, and grace you’ve shown through it all makes me even prouder to call you my brother. I’ll never get to sack you like I always dreamed, but I’ll always be in your corner. Love you, and I can’t wait to see where life takes you next. 🖤 @jordantrav13
Unless you’ve rooted for the Jets, there's no way you can possibly understand or empathize with our fanbase. We have been tortured, teased and tormented in the cruelest of ways through the years. This is just the latest chapter. #Jets
Many things wrong w #Jets other than kicking, but if Greg Zuerlein does his job:
Jets 12, Denver 10
Jets 26, Buffalo 23
Jets 26, New England 25
And the Jets are 5-3 instead of 2-6
Amazing
Rex Ryan had some words for the #Jets this morning:
"For a coach, you're hired to create a culture. The team is more important than the freakin' individual. When the team wins everybody wins. It ain't about the name on the back, it's about the name on the front of the damn jersey. Be proud to be a damn New York Jet. Right now I don't see it. 'I'm proud to be Aaron Rodgers. I'm proud to be this guy. I'm proud to be that guy.' How about be proud to be a freakin' New York Jet! Where's the passion for it! And I think that starts from the top...Freakin' unbelievable."
