Charlie’s neck just did that. His blood pressure was too high from all the hatred and also his tiny face contributed.

Also the dude who didn’t kill him is a fucking weirdo too.

[-] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 32 points 2 weeks ago

His face was normal and he had a tiny head that was swollen to be bigger than normal from the pressure. His neck was a weak point that finally succumbed to the pressure. That's why his neck just did that.

Charlie's neck exploding was the funniest shit. Douchebag deserved it

Did they ever check for fentanyl in his system? How can we be sure the bullet had any effect?

Kirk, who had no active warrants...

I had a conservative friend tell me there's an entire conspiracy around this. And this guy was basically mentally unstable and convinced to bring the gun to this location.

In reality, Israel installed those pager explosives in his microphone that sent something into his neck. The main argument is that the gun used would have done significantly more damage.

[-] theunknownmuncher@lemmy.world 20 points 2 weeks ago

Sometimes bullets do really weird things, so I'm not saying it isn't what happened, but it was a 30-06 rifle round which really should have done signficantly more damage from that range, so it is strange at the least.

[-] Fishnoodle@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago

If the bullet didn't hit any bone that will greatly limit the visible damage

We also don't have any pictures of the exit wound. There couldve be a huge chunk missing from the back of his neck that the camera couldn't capture at that angle

Imagine getting shot with that caliber and not having your neck turn to jello while literal steel can't fucking take the hit. Also imagine assembling the gun only with a screwdriver, only to have to have it disassembled again before going on a run (all while leaving the screwdriver behind) in the span of like what? 10 seconds? And then for some reason in a forest, before tossing out the evidence, he assembles it back again (with no screwdriver this time). And what a coincidence it is that he left it in a forest on Black Rocks land parcel.

[-] cloudshouter@lemmy.zip 9 points 2 weeks ago

Everyone knows it’s faster to draw your backup screwdriver than to reload the primary screwdriver.

I don't believe that conspiracy, but I do believe this kid was set up. This is what gangstalking is for. Manipulating loners or people that don't meet social standards.

Of course there would be a government website talking shit about it.

For those that want a straight forward description beyond the conspiracy/schitzo bullshit. This stuff isn't new at all... These concepts etc. When some people realize this is truth they will be wishing there was a God. Or more truthfully they will tuck their dicks and live for them like Nazi sympathizers.; https://www.reddit.com/r/TargetedSolutions/s/XT2625ztu9

[-] kuiskaaja@lemmy.ml 17 points 2 weeks ago

it's funny that you don't believe that (ridiculous) conspiracy theory but believe in a legitimately schizophrenic conspiracy theory (gangstalking)

Can't wait for some doc to get declassified and we learn the CIA has been doing it for decades.

I don’t consider most conservative hunters and shooters to actually be very skilled or knowledgeable. This is based very heavily on a lot of experience and interactions. A human neck bone will definitely stop a 30-06. It might be a flesh sack of spine gravel, but having no explosion of gore is not a surprise.

It was the most effective way to get him to shut up though. Really cute that it happened after he got dog walked so publicly by the Cambridge student.

Should be destruction of property instead. Murder implies the killing of a human.

Dehumanization is a tool of the fascists. Don't use it.

Of course he didn’t do it, we were doing shots down at o’paddies at the time, no way he did it, you all saw us there, didn’t you?

[-] rockSlayer@lemmy.blahaj.zone 55 points 2 weeks ago

The dude is a groyper, it's best to just sit back and watch the show on this one

He is? Well god damnit

Before anyone goes vouching for this guy, my understanding is that he didn't see Kirk as pure enough ideologically, IE he wasn't Nazi enough.

[-] Endgame@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago

Correct. He was a Groyper. A Nick Fuentes brand Nazi.

Fuentes and Kirk had a feud.

Fascist infighting is a very real phenomenon Americans aren't taught enough about because talking about how the Nazis were in fact murdering each other to rise through the ranks undermines the narrative that "The Nazis were owning everyone..... until America swooped in and saved the day! Oh yeah!"

Truth is, Nazi infighting contributed more to the downfall of Nazi Germany than America did.

Kirk died of a fetanyl overdose, Erika gave it to him.

[-] Lushed_Lungfish@lemmy.ca 22 points 2 weeks ago

I thought killing Nazis was one of the great American pastimes though? I feel that this was a concrete step towards Making America Great Again.

How can there be a murder charge when there was no murder?

Putting down a feral pig is a civic duty.

No, but his body double did. Charlie Kirk himself fled to South America as is appropriate for people of his political conviction.

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago

Just once, unfortunately.

[-] decolo@piefed.social 8 points 2 weeks ago

That's what big media wants you to think, anyway

[-] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 14 points 2 weeks ago

Cool, it goes to trial then. Maybe his fucked-up wife will testify. That should be quite a show.

Also, this guy deserves max sentence assuming he's convicted. The enemy of my enemy is not my friend in this case.

turns himself in

pleads not guilty

????

[-] yucandu@lemmy.world 13 points 2 weeks ago

That's exactly what you're supposed to do when you're under arrest and being charged with a crime that you didn't do. You turn yourself in so it looks better to the judge, then you plead not guilty.

[-] daychilde@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

This is standard. By pleading not guilty, there can be a trial. If he pleads guilty, there is no trial.
