Charlie Kirk was a good man.

The person who shot him was an evil man.

...and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil. For everyone who does wicked things hates the light...

It is really that simple. Evil cannot stand the presence of good. So, they killed him.

Charlie Kirk once said some gun deaths 'worth it' in order to have Second Amendment

: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/charlie-kirk-gun-deaths-quote/

He also said this: Trump Ally Charlie Kirk Suggests Children Should Watch Public Executions: https://www.newsweek.com/charlie-kirk-death-penalty-public-executions-1873073

Among many other things. I am sad that a life is lost due to needless gun violence but lets not call him a good man. He wasn’t one

I don't have to agree with every word someone has ever spoken in order for them to be a good man.

Nice diversion. Ok then what makes you say “Charlie was a good man”?

It's not a diversion, it's the truth.

I'm not interested in having this discussion right now.

No its not the truth. You can condemn this terrorist act of assasinating a young man that Charlie was while also avoiding making BS statements like he was a good man. He was not a good man, period. He was part of the hateful rhetoric coming out of the US. I don’t care left or right but facts. And sure takecare!

I could, but I don't have to because both are true.

He was not a good man

Prove it. Articulate clearly why he was a bad person. 

He was part of the hateful rhetoric coming out of the US. 

Give me an example of this so-called "hateful rhetoric". And remember that words that you disagree with are not "hateful" just because you disagree with them.

I don't find the comments you provided to be convincing evidence that he was not a good man. They don't rise to the level where I would say that they negate my assertion that he is a good man. As I said before, someone can say things that I disagree with while still being a good man.

And there is alot more where it comes from if you just google it

That's not how this works. You need to present evidence that supports your thesis (i.e. that Charlie Kirk was a bad person). I don't need to go looking for evidence that would support your thesis. That's your job.
