RadicalLeft.site deplores the murder of Charlie Kirk. However, in the weeks following said murder, the United States, under orders from convicted felon Donald Trump, murdered scores of persons in fishing boats off the coast of Venezuela and other South American countries. The press concerning those murders was, to put it charitably, muted. Murder is murder, isn't it?

RadicalLeft.site considers Charlie's slaying no more reprehensible than the slayings of each one of those fishermen. In fact, it is considerably less reprehensible inasmuch as Charlie was only one person, whereas the number of Venezuelans murdered is in the neighborhood of two hundred. What makes the fishermen's murders all the more serious is that they were done in our name, with our tax dollars. And that murderous piece of shit in the White House brags about it.

Let's seek some even-handed application of rules of so-called civilized societies.
