In the wake of the death of Charlie Kirk, the radicalized leftist reaction to the shooting at his movie theatre can be summed up in a single sentence: "Shooting is too good for people like me." Here's why.

00:00:00.000 Hi, it's John and welcome to the channel. Friday, September the 12th, 426 AM. I hope
00:00:08.320 you're having a great day today. Thanks for coming to this channel. Thanks for subscribing.
00:00:13.420 If you haven't subscribed yet to the channel, please click on subscribe. Thank you so much.
00:00:21.260 I woke up today and I was thinking about what I wanted to talk about. Yesterday I did a
00:00:27.640 video, which I was quite proud of, remembering Charlie Kirk. And I kind of tuned out yesterday
00:00:34.780 for the most part. I knew what yesterday was going to be about, but it was impossible to avoid
00:00:39.060 what was coming in the aftermath of the assassination of Charlie Kirk. I did spend a lot of yesterday
00:00:46.600 thinking about what I was going to talk about today. And I do want to get back to issues that
00:00:50.320 are affecting us here in Alberta and here in Canada. The government of Canada has denied Alberta
00:00:56.240 a pipeline, but we'll get to that at another time. But what was I going to talk about today
00:01:01.400 was on my mind. And in my video yesterday, I paused a pregnant pause, which I would, would
00:01:10.860 have scared the hell out of me in, in, in my old radio days. This dead air was something
00:01:14.920 you did not want on the air, but I pregnant paused in my video yesterday for quite some
00:01:19.120 time. And I said this just on a final note. Were you surprised by this yesterday? It's shocking.
00:01:35.780 But when you have one side of the United States constantly calling the leader of the country,
00:01:50.220 and that would be Donald Trump, worse than, talk about free speech and I can hardly say
00:01:56.940 it on YouTube, worse than the guy who ran Germany from 1933 to 1945. Is it any wonder that somebody's
00:02:03.920 going to take up a gun and start firing? I was very proud of making that comment on that
00:02:10.640 video. And I recorded that very early yesterday morning, very early for Mountain Time, where
00:02:15.940 I live, a little after four o'clock in the morning, and even still early for the Eastern
00:02:21.700 Time Zone. But so many of the people that I admire who have far more subscribers on YouTube
00:02:27.720 and followers than I have said the same thing later in the day. Were you surprised by this?
00:02:32.840 I wasn't surprised at all because of the rhetoric of the left. And you may say,
00:02:39.560 but I live in Canada. Canadians are far more polite. I'll get to that in just a moment,
00:02:43.320 folks, because we're not far away from this now.
00:02:49.240 I'm not going to show you the insane leftists screaming and rejoicing online
00:02:56.240 about the death of Charlie Kirk. I'm not going to show that to you. I don't want to give these
00:03:01.080 people any platform on this channel. I'm going to give you an example here in Canada in just
00:03:08.140 a moment because I have to make a point, but I'm not going to do that. But it was everywhere
00:03:12.360 yesterday. And I try to avoid it. I like watches. I study watches. I watched watch videos all day
00:03:20.080 yesterday because I knew how awful it was going to be, but I couldn't stay away from it. Here's
00:03:23.760 an email I got from Brian Lilly. I get a regular email from him. He talks about being at a film
00:03:32.680 and then he wrote this. As I was catching up on the news of Kirk's assassination after leaving the
00:03:39.800 film screening, my boss, Adrian Batra, the editor-in-chief of the Toronto Sun, warned me to be careful in
00:03:45.320 public. I told her I appreciated the concern but felt safe. I'm not on the level or the kind of stage
00:03:52.200 that Kirk was. And besides, this is Canada. Then came the comments from Dr. Ruth Marshall,
00:03:58.640 an associate professor of religion at the University of Toronto who expressed herself
00:04:04.400 quite forcefully and coarsely on X. Shooting is honestly too good for so many of you fascist C's. 0.74
00:04:14.300 Also in my video yesterday, I said that I am a free speech absolutist unless you're calling
00:04:20.240 for violence and this is calling for violence. Lily goes on to say, Dr. Marshall's office is
00:04:27.580 mere blocks from my home and blocks from my office. It turns out I walk by this woman's office with my 0.99
00:04:33.460 dog on a regular basis and she is saying shooting is too good for people like me. Here's an article on
00:04:41.680 this. I'll go back to the top. U of T prof saying shooting is too good for fascists is disgusting,
00:04:49.560 says Ford. And let me just go through some of the comments here. And that's Doug Ford they're talking
00:04:55.580 about, Premier of Ontario. Here's Brian Lilly. I just want to point out that only a few days ago,
00:05:01.240 this professor of religion at U of T was calling post media a fascist organization and asking people
00:05:07.680 to help shut us down. Now she's saying shooting is too good for fascists. I really appreciate this
00:05:13.740 from the pleb. Follow him on YouTube. University of Toronto political professor on the death of Charlie
00:05:20.280 Kirk. If you're wondering why the kids are getting so radicalized in our universities now,
00:05:26.020 these are the vile teachers who are brainwashing them.
00:05:28.920 And then there's this Canadian celebrating Charlie Kirk's assassination may be banned from the U.S.
00:05:43.860 This is in Canada. I'm going to get, we're going to get deeper into Canada in just a moment. This is
00:05:48.900 not going to go on for very long. So yesterday I was wondering what I was going to do today,
00:05:53.160 but I woke up this morning. I was thinking about a video that I saw yesterday. I'm going to show you a
00:05:57.660 short clip of it in just a moment. But I woke up at 2.37 AM this morning. I was wide awake at 2.37
00:06:03.680 and I sent myself an email that had one line in it. I don't believe there is any redemption for
00:06:12.360 people who think like this. And I'm laying there for a few more minutes and I sent myself another email
00:06:21.360 and this is exactly what I wrote. If your first instinct is to applaud and wish for more violence,
00:06:26.500 look into your soul and ask how you got this way.
00:06:33.520 I don't know whether you grew up
00:06:35.460 knowing these sayings, but don't speak ill of the dead. Or if you can't say anything nice about
00:06:41.740 someone, say nothing at all. These are things that I learned. You know, I think that Steve Jobs was a
00:06:47.940 genius when he invented these, but I think if we eliminated smartphones and social media, we'd be a lot
00:06:54.460 better society today because people can go out and say what's on their mind. And these people
00:06:59.120 should not be saying what's on their mind. And then I saw something like this.
00:07:08.860 Urgent. For your information, after Charlie Kirk on the Sky app, there were people asking for the
00:07:13.580 next person to be targeted. These include JK Rowling, Matt Walsh, Trump, Ben Shapiro, Libs of TikTok,
00:07:19.500 Elon Musk, and Andy Ngo. And these are people who live in society and may be living with you right
00:07:28.100 now. This is disgraceful. Do these people even belong in civil society? Are these human beings
00:07:35.460 that would call for the death of people? You know, it's interesting. If you look back on this
00:07:40.420 article, let me go back up here. I'll show it to you right here.
00:07:43.920 We look back on this article. I actually filled this out yesterday, but I'm on a different
00:07:48.900 computer now. Has our society sunk to a new low when people are applauding Charlie Cook's
00:07:54.060 assassination? Yes, it has. Now, this is the Toronto Sun, which you could consider more of a right-wing
00:08:00.440 website, but there are still almost 10% of the people who go to this website who think that it's
00:08:06.840 perfectly fine, that we haven't sunk to a new low when they're applauding probably Charlie
00:08:12.820 Kirk's assassination. That's how far we've fallen in our society. I don't believe there's any
00:08:18.460 redemption for people who think like this. And where do they get this ideology? Obviously,
00:08:22.780 they're learning it in schools, but what about that teacher 0.73
00:08:25.560 who Brian Lilly referred to?
00:08:32.000 And then I want to go to this video right here. I want to show you this. This is Nick Freitas.
00:08:37.280 And I watched this whole thing. Link in the description. You can watch the whole thing. Nick,
00:08:40.920 member of the Virginia House of Delicates since 2016. And he's talking about his response
00:08:47.700 to the Charlie Kirk assassination. And I want you to take a look at this and hear what he has to say.
00:08:56.040 So this is what I said yesterday. And I waited on this because I waited on this, I prayed on it,
00:09:02.000 and I was like, no, no, I believe this is true. So this is what I said. I said, I am told that as a
00:09:08.420 state representative, this is the moment where I'm supposed to express my heartfelt condolences
00:09:12.580 and then stand in solidarity with those on the other side of the aisle as we condemn political
00:09:16.840 violence and stand unified as one people. But we aren't one people, are we? The truth is we haven't
00:09:22.680 been for some time now, and there is really no point in pretending anymore if there ever was.
00:09:28.140 We are two very different peoples. We may occupy the same piece of geography, but that is where the
00:09:34.140 similarities seem to abruptly end. I convinced myself for a long time that whenever the left
00:09:39.520 called me a racist, a bigot, a sexist, a fascist, a threat to democracy, for even the most innocent
00:09:44.880 of disagreements, that it was simply hyperbolic rhetoric done for effect. And now the effect is a
00:09:51.480 widow and two orphaned children because the left couldn't bear the thought of a peaceful man debating
00:09:55.980 them and winning. He goes on and it's worth listening to the whole thing, but I don't want
00:10:02.480 to play the whole thing here. Go watch Nick's video. Again, link in the description. And you say,
00:10:06.520 John, he's in the United States of America. We're polite Canada here, folks. I said at the end of my
00:10:14.860 video yesterday, maybe we need to bring the temperature down in Canada because, you know,
00:10:18.300 we're saying nasty things about our politicians here as well.
00:10:20.640 And let me just prove it. How far are we away from something like this happening to a politician
00:10:29.500 or a political figure here in Canada? Peer Polly of Ignor's calls to disavow far-right extremists
00:10:35.340 identified as national security threats because he can't disavow his base. I'm his base. Are you his
00:10:40.920 base? This is his dog whistle to them and stand back and stand by. Even tacit approval of extremists
00:10:49.160 and separatists should be disqualifying. If you're seeing what's happening in the U.S.
00:10:56.020 Now, this is on April 28th, I believe. If you see what's happening in the U.S. and you still want
00:11:00.280 to support Peer Polly of the conservatives and those fascist maple mega losers on follow me, 0.51
00:11:06.340 why are you even following a trans person of color anyways?
00:11:09.360 Pauliev is Trump, an anti-democrat, a man who espouses fascist values, a dictator in the making.
00:11:19.120 We must not make America's mistake. We must vote like our lives depend on it. Vote, vote, vote.
00:11:26.520 This is in Canada, folks. Remember, Adolf Hitler would vote for Pauliev. Freedom is liberal.
00:11:33.260 Daniel Smith is a traitor. She's selling us out. And here's the head of the NDP in Alberta. I'm not
00:11:41.660 going to show you his video. Daniel Separatist Smith said the quiet part out loud. She is putting
00:11:47.460 our country at risk because she is chasing clout with extremists to stay in power. I believe in
00:11:54.680 independence for Alberta and the head of the NDP, Nahed Nanchi, believes I am extremist.
00:12:01.840 Albertans deserve so much better than this selfish, power-hungry premier. Ladies and gentlemen,
00:12:09.080 Canada is not shielded from this extremism. It's here as well.
00:12:17.400 If your first instinct is to applaud and wish for more violence, look into your soul and ask how you
00:12:22.820 got this way. And why was Charlie Kirk shot? Because of what he believed. He was shot because people
00:12:29.580 disagreed with him. He was shot because people think violence is okay and it's spreading, folks.
00:12:39.780 Do people like I just showed you, talking about Canadian politicians and people who follow them,
00:12:46.580 do they belong in polite society? These people are probably working with you.
00:12:53.540 Again, I say it, I'm a free speech absolutist, but if you're calling for violence against people and
00:13:00.120 calling people fascists, eventually somebody will act. I remember during Donald Trump's first term,
00:13:06.680 it might have been on Tim Pool's show, there's the old question, if you could go back in time and kill
00:13:13.620 Hitler, would you? And most people would say yes. How about the people who followed him? 0.97
00:13:18.960 Himmler, Goering, Goebbels, Heydrich, the Waffen-SS, would you go back in time and kill them?
00:13:27.040 Probably. Well, when you're referring to people as fascists
00:13:30.380 or likening them to Hitler, what happens next?
00:13:44.460 It's sad to say, but I don't believe there's any redemption for the people who think like this.
00:13:49.720 And people are calling them out online right now. The woman, that professor has been suspended from 1.00
00:13:55.380 school right now. I hope she lose her job. She's calling for violence. And she's teaching children this.
00:14:04.040 Thanks for watching. I appreciate it. If you liked the video, please give it a thumbs up.
00:14:08.420 Subscribe to the channel. Ring the bell for notifications. I think I'm going to work on something
00:14:12.000 a little closer to home and talk about what's going on here in Canada and where I live here in Alberta.
00:14:18.560 I hope you have a great day. I'll see you in the next one.
