The tragic killing of Rob Reiner has once again ignited the debate about how political factions react to the deaths of their ideological opponents.
Charlie Kirk’s assassination generated a wave of hate the likes of which has rarely been seen in American history. Thousands upon thousands of posts saying every vile thing you could imagine, prompting social media users to begin contacting employers and even getting people fired. Many of those reveling in his public, violent death were teachers and medical professionals; the kind of people you rely on every day to take care of yourself and your children. To know that these people can be provoked to such vitriol by a difference of opinions shocked decent Americans nationwide and exposed the fathomless depths of leftist hatred.
So when news of Reiner’s death broke, Jeremy London jumped at the opportunity to indict MAGA supporters for the reactions he anticipated they would have.
Look:
Reiner hated Trump, so brace yourself for some nasty comments coming from the magatverse

“Reiner hated Trump, so brace yourself for some nasty comments coming from the magatverse,” he wrote.
While the majority of commentary from the right has been kind, respectful and peaceful, it’s worth noting that London doesn’t exactly have a leg to stand on in the morality department. See, Twitchy’s ‘Politibunny’ has a long memory and it didn’t take her long to unearth London’s reaction to Kirk’s death.

“Please join me in never mentioning Charlie Kirk’s name on this shit platform ever again. Give him the same respect that he gave dead school children. Make him irrelevant and a relic of a hateful history. He doesn’t deserve attention,” London posted on September 17th, just seven days after the conservative activist was killed while speaking to students on a Utah campus.

It’s funny. They can be totally awful but don’t like it when that same energy is directed back at them.

The difference isn’t in who died. The difference is in the reaction of ppl who disagreed with his opinions.
We offer prayers and sympathy.
No “but”.
No rejoicing.Prayers to his family and friends. Such a horrible horrible death.

Amen to that. Very sad to hear about Rob Reiner and his wife. RIP. 😢

They expect us to be nasty POS like they are.
I only feel sadness for Reiner, his wife, and his son – two useless deaths and one life ruined and souls in need of redemption.
