Well, in the light of Mr. Charlie Kirk’s death, I believe that his example has something to give us.
The governor of Utah Mr. Spencer J. Cox formulates it quite well; instead of digging the trenches deeper, let’s not.
Let’s keep the faith in dialogue and debate as the tool of Democracy. Just because we are in a generation of disagreement and trench warfare, we do not have to engage in murder.
After dialogue stops, there is nothing but war.
I am not saying we should be naive, there are criminals, and politicians who are unable and unwilling to enter into dialogue. That is just the way it is.
However, just because there are tyrants and demagogues WE don’t have to be like that.
Democracy is on the edge of becoming a tyranny. That is pretty clear to everyone.
Only if we keep faith in the democratic WAY, will we keep our democracies intact.
Attacking Charlie was essentially an attack on his faith. His Christian faith, but also on his METHODS. He believed in dialogue.
Let’s do what Charlie did.
G-d bless the will of the American people, to keep faith in Democracy. May we prevail.
