“Charlie Kirk wasn’t killed by ‘them.’ ‘They’ didn’t pull the trigger. One person did, apparently a young man driven by impulse and a terrible hate. . . Using Charlie’s murder to justify retaliation against political rivals is wrong and dangerous. It will further divide and embitter our country. No good thing will come of it.” That was the message Karl Rove chose to share with us today in a Wall Street Journal column. Rove may be legally correct that one man pulled the trigger and that man is being charged in a court of law. But his larger point is wrong because it completely misses the big picture. We must understand the moment we are living in.
