      To be fair charlie kirk has absolutely the most punchable face. If the sniper was just picking a person at random to shoot there’s like a 90% chance it would be kirk

        It could be that the shooter was aiming at someone else entirely, but the bullet just got trapped by the gravitational field of Charlie Kirk’s head. Not only was it huge, but it was incredibly dense.

      He’s right. Could be human decency, could be that Kirk wasn’t evil enough, could be that the Andromedans made some good points

        This has been a great, unifying distraction from the Epstein files
