I think it's pretty reasonable to ask for that
I think it's also important to consider that there are things that someone can do that aren't rape or murder that open the door to people saying their death was better for the world, even if it shouldn't have happened
Charlie Kirk said on video that, if he had a 10-year-old daughter who was impregnated by rape, he would make her carry the baby to term
I am open to the idea that such a radical sacrifice by a young woman can be beautiful, but the idea that Kirk presumes this is the best course of action, seemingly over any idea of his daughter's protest since her wishes are clearly not factored into his answer, shows that his goal is not to make the best decision for his daughter, but the best decision for his the preservation of his convictions
that might sound nice until you consider that parents are meant to answer to their kids' wellbeing, not a political party's abortion perspective
being pro-life is one thing, that's a conviction I can admire. stating you would force your daughter to carry her rapist's baby to term strikes a lot of us not just as a difference of opinion but a moral failing nearly as serious as other crimes we think of as justifying a sigh of relief after their death
I feel terrible for the man and his family, and his death simply should not have happened, to him or anyone
at the same time, things that shouldn't happen that are nevertheless better for the world happen all the time
I'm deeply relieved that his daughter will not be made to grow up with a father who would force her to carry a rapist's baby the same year she turned double digits
and keep in mind this is only one of many deeply reprehensible things he's said
there are people being genuinely shitty about his death and I hate it
I think people like you also need more nuance in how you're seeing the reaction to his death
