Enough irony in all of this you could actually finish the hi speed rail in CA. All across the nation people are being suspended fired or called into HR for their social media posts celebrating the death of Kirk. All he did was oppose their world view.
When I was young the golden rule among other Christian based ethos were drilled into me as a directive to my behavior to others. 1/2 a century ago or more, I internally rolled my eyes when once visiting my great grandmother Ehrlich, an ancient yet powerful German lady who would whop you upside the head if you stepped out of line without missing a beat, she would say that tired old line "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all." It was instruction, and being young I had no interest in that, I wanted to be rebellious, which led to several "corrections" over the years by grandparents and parents alike. I'm sure I tested their patience and endurance, but at some point I got it, they were modifying my behavior because there is consequence to it. It's obvious far too many people lacked that support and training to be an adult while growing up, where then the corrections only hurt your feelings, now in the big wide world, those corrections carry a little more weight and threat.
