I'm Sounding Like A Broken Record, For Those Who Are Familiar With Vinyl Recordings

 OLBERMANN HAS THE BEST essay on what produced the milieu in which Kirk was assassinated with a huge litany of citations of Trump's advocating deadly violence INCLUDING GUN VIOLENCE AND "SECOND AMENDMENT" TACTICS.   And if that's not enough he plays a clip of Kirk advocating political violence,  advocating that President Biden be put to death in the mix.   It is the best essay I've read about this.

In other news,  in the wake of FOX Lies Brian Kilmeade advocating the murder of homeless People,  in the fifth incidence of mass shooting violence IN MINNEAPOLIS MINNESOTA! in recent time, two homeless encampments have been the victim of mass shootings last night.

And the response of the city is to destroy the homeless encampments,  NOT BY, YOU KNOW, HOUSING THE HOMELESS PEOPLE THERE,  but by bulldozing where they live.   

“If this city truly treated these shootings like the emergencies they are, people would already see grief and trauma counselors on the ground,” Sabri told local media after the shooting. “Instead, the mayor’s answer is the same tired move we’ve seen for years: displacement. Bulldoze people’s tents, fence off their space, and call it leadership.”

The city promptly moved to clear out the encampment on Sabri’s property, which could nullify the drawn-out legal battle between the two.

As the cost of housing continues to soar beyond the means of most Americans and the number of unhoused people rises across the country, the topic is increasingly prevalent on the national stage.

The shootings were two of five mass shootings to occur in Minnesota’s largest city in the past two weeks, including one at a local Catholic school that killed two children.

A Trump executive order month earlier directed governments to begin “shifting” people without stable housing into “long-term institutional settings”, something many critics feared could lead to a direct criminalization of homelessness.

Fox News host Brian Kilmeade recently floated the idea of “involuntary lethal injection” for homeless individuals around the country, stating: “Just kill ‘em.”

It's unfortunate that they didn't include the Roberts Reublican-fascist controlled Court in the story because,  IN AN ENTIRELY MORE PRACTICAL WAY THAN KILMEADE FLAPPING HIS FLABBY LIPS THEY HAVE LEGALIZED THE FIRST STEP IN KILLING THE HOMELESS,  MAKING IT POSSIBLE FOR LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TO ILLEGALIZE HOMELESSNESS.   To ban homeless People living because in order to live you have to live somewhere where you can live.  The clean, well dressed, billionaire grifting six Republican-fascists on the Roberts Court were more elegant in their language BUT THEY ACTUALLY MOVED THE CONSTITUTION IN THE DIRECTION THAT KILMEADE ADVOCATED.    Those millionaires and soon to be millionaires didn't address the typical unwillingness of governments to make an effort to end homelessness,  they would certainly never say there was any kind of government obligation to do that,  so all they have to do is harry the homeless out of their town into another town or into some wild area where they can't possibly live for long and that's the same thing as saying they can be harried to death.   Considering how many of those who are homeless are children might help understand that this is worse than the British death camp system of the workhouses which had, at their foundation, the same Malthusian intention.
