'Rapid developments' in manhunt for Charlie Kirk assassin after photos of 'person of interest' were released: Live updates

Most of it is just the same details, but looks like something is happening...

When you think of it, to every sane person that argues the toss about stuff on socials and forums, his death should really make us all stop and think that we are all equally responsible in a way.

Stoking fires, never backing down, refusing to accept another angle. We've probably all been guilty off some of those things.

Really though, it should make us all take a step backwards in the disagreement side of things and we should all really, as sane people be looking for bridges of peace.


Can we all try being a bit more that way for a week or two, see how things go?

Journalist and college professor Stacey Patton goes viral by penning a stunningly powerful statement about how she was on Charlie Kirk’s “digital hit list” and recounting the horror that he inflicted on her.



We cannot allow this tragic assassination to whitewash Kirk’s legacy…

“I am on Charlie Kirk’s hit list,” Patton wrote to her 215,000 followers on Facebook. “His so-called ‘Professor Watchlist,’ run under the umbrella of Turning Point USA, is nothing more than a digital hit list for academics who dare to speak truth to power. I landed there in 2024 after writing commentary that inflamed the MAGA faithful. And once my name went up, the harassment machine roared to life.”

“For weeks my inbox and voicemail were deluged. Mostly white men spat venom through the phone: ‘bitch,’ ‘*****,’ ‘n****r.’ They threatened all manner of violence,” she continued.

“They overwhelmed the university’s PR lines and the president’s office with calls demanding that I be fired,” Patton wrote. “The flood was so relentless that the head of campus security reached out to offer me an escort, because they feared one of these keyboard soldiers might step out of his basement and come do me harm.”

“And I am not unique,” she added.

“Kirk’s Watchlist has terrorized legions of professors across this country. Women, Black faculty, queer scholars, basically anyone who challenged white supremacy, gun culture, or Christian nationalism suddenly found themselves targets of coordinated abuse,” Patton wrote.

“Some received death threats. Some had their jobs threatened. Some left academia entirely. Kirk sent the loud message to us: speak the truth and we will unleash the mob!” she continued.

“That is the culture of violence Charlie Kirk built. He normalized violence. He curated it, monetized it, and sicced it on anyone who dared to puncture his movement’s lies,” she wrote.

“And now, in the wake of his shooting, there’s all this national outpouring of mourning, moments of silence, yellow prayer hands, and tributes painting him as a civil debater,” Patton continued. “But the truth is that Kirk and his foot soldiers spent years terrorizing educators, trying to silence us with harassment and fear!”

“And now the same violence he unleashed on others has come full circle.”

“But what i find especially jarring is the dissonance in public mourning for a smug white man whose life work was actively hostile to certain groups,” she continued. “Kirk spent years demonizing LGBTQ people, mocking gun survivors, spewing racism about Black folks, and pushing policies that literally shorten lives.”

“It is so revolting to watch a bipartisan wave of grief sweep over this hateful racist as if he was a neutral community servant,” she concluded.

This is pure unvarnished truth from Patton. Charlie Kirk did not deserve what happened to him, but nor did his victims deserve the hell that he unleashed on them. If Americans are going to build a more peaceful future for ourselves we must condemn political violence while also condemning the hateful, bigoted rhetoric that made Kirk a multimillionaire.

Shots have been fired at the University of Massachusetts in Boston, sparking a massive police response on Thursday afternoon.

Dozens of students and staff were seen fleeing for their lives after gunshots rang out at the school's campus in Dorchester, the Boston Police Department told WCVB.

Gunfire was reported at 3:45pm near Morrissey Boulevard, the outlet reported.

Several UMass Boston alerts warned students that the incident is a 'public safety threat' and is in or near a residence hall in the school's East Building.

SWAT teams rushed to the dorm building, as people were urged to avoid the area.

Sky5 footage showed students and staff evacuating a campus building with their hands raised, as officers armed with rifles swarmed the area.

The urgent alert comes at a fraught time for America - as multiple colleges across the country were put on lockdown today over a series of bomb and terror threats.

UMass's shooting also comes just one day after conservative activist Charlie Kirk, 31, was fatally shot at Utah Valley University.

Massachusetts State Police said in a statement: 'Troopers have responded to UMass Boston to an unconfirmed report of a shooting on campus.

I’ve just watched @Channel4News, in which @Mattfrei, oh so casually, calls Charlie Kirk ‘far right’. That’s it, that’s all it takes: an authoritative declaration of fascism. Kirk’s views would be shared by millions. It’s such a shallow understanding of the political right.

Didn’t like flying if the Pilot was black (DEI hire)

called MLK an “awful person”

Didn’t think MLK Day should be a Federal Holiday

Anti-Juneteenth, called it “a smear and slander to White America”

called the Civil Rights Act of 1964 a “huge mistake”

told high school girls college is “to find a husband and be in the kitchen”

called gay people “a disease”

called for violence against immigrants, LGBTQ+, and minorities

would have his 10 year old daughter give birth if she got pregnant after being raped

Christian Nationalist

2nd Amendment is “worth the cost of gun deaths”.

I’d say that was far right…

I’d be interested to know how anyone can agree with everything he stood for? The faux outrage at anyone who dares to remind people what a truly horrendous creature he was is fascinating. To disagree would surely mean you agree with the horrendous **** he used to come out with.

Not a murderer though, a murderer like the man you've as yet failed to condemn.

I condemn all murder. That isn’t up for debate. I don’t know what weird little gotcha you think you’re pulling here, but you sound confused about your own argument. My refusal to shed a tear for a cretinous bag of organs who wanted to eradicate my existence, and the existence of countless others, does not mean I condone his murder. You’ve made that leap because it’s easier than facing the truth.

And the truth is this: you completely ignored the long list of horrendous, hateful ideologies he vomited out. That’s not surprising in the slightest, considering you share more than a few of them yourself.

U.S. Naval Academy on lockdown: Shots fired inside as 'gunman knocks on doors pretending to be military'
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...Annapolis.html

The United States Naval Academy base in Maryland has been put on lockdown as an official claims a shooter pretending to be a military officer is going door-to-door on campus.

Multiple sources told Fox News they heard gunshots in the Bancraft Hall dormitories after claims an expelled former student came to campus with a gun.

The Naval Academy announced the lockdown Thursday evening, as local police conducted a search.

'Naval Support Activity Annapolis, in coordination with local law enforcement, is currently responding to reports of threats made to the Naval Academy,' a Naval Academy spokesperson said in a statement.

He was an awful person, but didn’t deserve to be shot and killed. I feel for his family.

Trouble is, even if it’s not true and proven to be so, it’s now been said and people will still believe it as truth.
