Vinton Today

Dear Editor,

There should be no doubt that evil resides in the left.

Review their criticisms of my opinions. Did they address the issues I raised or did they attack me on a personal basis? I think you have the answer. They can not be trusted with the truth.

Charlie Kirk was a truth teller, now silent by an assassin's bullet. May God have mercy on his soul. St. Michael, protect us in peace and in battle

JO September 11, 2025, 6:29 pm We are not to argue with fools lest we become the fools. We are dealing with spiritually blind people. They absolutely cannot help that they are blind. We are to pray for them not allow their vitriol to trigger us. When we engage like this the demons are in the background literally winning as they laugh at us & what we are becoming. We that know & believe know who wins in the end & He will open all of their eyes in that moment & they will see & they will know the truth but it will be too late. So prayer is the only real answer. Its always been the answer. Prayer for our enemies, the unbelievers and the lost, our country and leaders, all of them. He is our only hope & He calls us to love each other. Love is patient, kind, does not boast, is not proud. It does not dishonor others....Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with truth... Look it up, it's so good! We think we know what love is but love really is what 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 says it is. If you can't do that then you need to get right with Him first. If we are filled with His Spirit then we should be able to put aside our feelings and have compassion for our fellow man. If anyone of us sees an accident with people needing help, we aren't asking "who did you vote for" before we help them. Unfortunately there is evil in this world & it's being manifested right before our eyes. The evil has always been there. Charlie Kirk was a kind, decent man & even tho I didn't know him, I know that by what he spoke and stood for. He didn't deserve to be murdered so anyone that takes pleasure in that is influenced by evil. And while most of us grieve his loss & grieve for his family's loss, God will turn it around & use it for good because thats what God does. He's already doing it. I'm not saying you can't be angry with what's happening in this country. I'm angry, I'm sad and I'm sick of living in the ugliness of this world, but I choose to always see the beauty of God's creation and His grace for humanity even in the ugly & evil times. Pray, Forgive and Love. That's what we are called to do. To some it comes easy esp if you know the One that loves & forgives & intercedes for you.

IK September 11, 2025, 4:31 pm The left should be called "The Hate'rs" not democrats. That's all they can spew. I've not heard or seen those on the right spew hate on the victims of assassinations on the left. Are there any?

DL September 11, 2025, 2:27 pm We're "evil" for wanting gun reform. We're "evil" for Charlie Kirk being killed by a gun. We're "evil" for being more sick about innocent kids being killed, every time it happens. We're "evil" because your cult leader ended the law preventing the mentally ill from purchasing guns, that President Obama got passed. He ended it, just because the man has dark skin. We're "evil" because two registered Republicans attempted to kill your cult leader. We're "evil" because a 'non evil' right Wing nut killed a Minnesota Legislator and her husband, and shot another Legislator and his wife.

It's rather rich, that you blow up over this human being being killed, but all of the others only get your thoughts and prayers. This was just as sickening as all the other gun deaths, in the past 27 years.

What does "truth" have to do with yesterday's killing? I agree that Charlie Kirk gave into facts better than any other member of the cult. But, you still believe that con man cult leader, that lies every day, multiple times.

RB September 11, 2025, 2:21 pm How about the Minnesota democrats or Paul Pelosi or the attempts on Governor Whitmer and Governor Shapiro? Where were you then John? Your felonious leader tries to divide people and spews hatred. This is the result? The reason you are criticized is that you must be blind to the truth. Charlie said empathy was a new age term and is dangerous. I guess Jesus was dangerous too because you would have called him woke if he walked on the earth today.

Thank you for proving John's point. There isn't a single tragedy that normal people don't allow to hit their souls.
Kirk was a gentleman; as such, the world grieves the loss.
His crime? Speaking.

CH September 11, 2025, 9:53 am God Bless you John for voicing your opinion without hateful rhetoric. RIP Charlie Kirk.

ME September 11, 2025, 12:10 am Charlie Kirk was a moron that made a living debating ignorant college students and grifting adults at that level. He argued against gun control, willing to accept gun deaths in exchange for the 2nd Amendment. How'd that work out for him?

Y'all don't cry this much about those politicians in Minnesota that got assassinated, Pelosi's husband, or countless school children - not a word from y'all about Denver, I notice - I don't care that you're crying over Kirk.
