Here Kirk promoted violence and hate & he gets mourned & worshipped like some kind of hero and sympathtic figure, while everyone who points that out gets accused of "celebrating his death." I don't think it's celebrating to point out that he actually said that the second ammendment was more important than human life.

It's not wrong to point out the irony that he was a victim of someone who obviously shared a similar philosophy.
