As I look at what continues to unfold, I believe we have to keep two key words in mind:

1. Rage
2. Celebration

The RW feels a justified Rage at this assassination. Too many on the Left are openly Celebrating the murder of Kirk. Historically, that is an explosive combination.

First, rage is a basic, powerful human emotion. It is appropriate at times. When your side kills one of our leaders in cold blood in front of his wife & children, oh yeah - a period of rage should be expected.

What makes this not an isolated act of violence is the Celebration

Very large numbers of Leftist began immediately celebrating the killing, saying that Kirk had it coming, and that it should happen to more fascists as well. These celebratory comments were popular on the Left.

That 1-2 combination has produced near instant wars before.

One example is the almost instant eruption of the Yugoslavian civil war.

Another, that the Western media ignores, is the burning of ~25 Russian sympathizers alive in Odessa in 2014, and the immediate Celebration by many Ukranians. The Russians remember that, quite well.

Burning people alive for their political beliefs is an outrage. Celebrating such deaths is a reason for white-hot fury, and as part of a series of events, this is one of the reasons that Ukraine is still at war 11 years later.

Both words have to be understood together, to see where we are right now, and what may come next.

If you are not of the RW - don't deny us our right to feel rage. That's what political assassinations create.

And openly Celebrating the murder is where the true fury lies.

It is the open & widespread Celebration of the killing of a prominent person on the Right for their political beliefs that is the true problem here.

Forget the shooter, I hope he is quickly executed. The vicious, hateful ghouls of the Left celebrating are the problem.
