No group responsible for Kirk's murder; his killer is [View all]

The Idaho Statesman Editorial Board

The killing of Charlie Kirk on Wednesday on a college campus in Utah is undoubtedly an act of political violence that should have no place in America.

The irony is that if the person who assassinated Kirk did so because of opposition to Kirk’s political ideology, the shooting only serves to make Kirk a martyr, to amplify his message and to hurt their own.

Political violence never advances your side of the political argument. Attempting to silence someone with whom you disagree does not make your case.

Robert F. Kennedy was killed in a politically motivated assassination. Today, he is often glorified.
