5 pieces of irony about the murder of Charlie Kirk:

1. The last exchange he had was with a student who wanted to prove the Left was peaceful.

2. The last word Charlie uttered in public was "violence." He was unwittingly announcing his martyrdom because martyrs are those who die violently because of their views. In Charlie's case it seems it was primarily for his conservative views but since they can't be separated from his Christian views he qualifies for Christian martyrdom as well in my estimation.

3. Charlie was shot in the left side of the neck, by someone who held leftist views. Tyler Robinson was said by Utah Governor Cox to be romantically involved with a transgender. If so, that becomes another irony because it's connected to the last questioner's subject. And it would move the needle over to him dying for his faith.

4. The tee shirt he was wearing had Freedom written on it. This put me in mind of the old quote, "The Tree of Liberty is often refreshed by the blood of patriots and tyrants."

5. The blood that streamed down his shirt covered either the "dom' or the "om" showing that he was freed from this horrible world to meet the first Martyr of the New Testament, the Lord Jesus Christ whose truth Charlie shared just as readily as his conservatism.

I don't think a novelist would have invented such a list of coincidences about a fictional assassination, which goes to show Truth is often stranger than fiction.
