I am thoroughly disgusted in the responses I've seen from some to the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

I was not a follower of Charlie's, and honestly I didn't like listening to the guy, but I'm sure I agree with some of his views and disagree with others. From what I've seen, he was always a respectful man even in disagreement and debate with others, which can't be said for most people these days.

I don't understand how some can be indoctrinated with such hatred toward this man based on difference of worldview to the point of celebrating murder, posting videos of themselves dancing and laughing, interrupting prayers and vigils, and mocking mourners.

I'm unsure whether this is a fresh spirit of evil infecting minds and souls or if modern communications technology has enabled it to spread wider and faster, but it is clear that a significant amount of people consider their fellow countrymen and neighbors to be enemies worth disregarding civility in order to defeat.

I fear that the growing trend of politically motivated violence will continue to accelerate and exacerbate the already massive divide between the left and right to the point of no return. I'm afraid we may already be there, as it can only be seen in retrospect.

I really don't know how to respond to this murder other than prayer and a firm resolve to uphold virtue. I will pray. I will pray more.
