    How are they spinning this now? Will they say that “the shooter didn’t disagree with Kirk’s ideology, therefore this was not ‘politically motivated violence’, and also this must mean nothing is wrong with Kirk’s hate speech.” Then they dismiss the kid as being mentally ill, and everyone move along, nothing more to see here.

    Or maybe he was secretly trans Muslim antifa, and that they are hiding amongst them in their own ranks. That would be kind of funny. Though it would end up getting more dangerous.

    Or they have a better spin?
