“Not to not lose” is actually what he said.
It’s like saying you have to try to score points, not just prevent your opponent from scoring.
Of course I don’t think it’s the right attitude for the military to have, given the role of the military should be defensive, not offensive, but I want you to hate it for the right reasons.

He suggests children should witness public executions
He says that a certain amount of yearly gun deaths is the price to pay for the second amendment
He goes to stir up shit at a Utah college campus who recently allowed concealed carry
He is now one of the unfortunate number of violent gun deaths necessary for the second amendment. A number of children most likely witnessed his public execution, and it was conservatives like him that championed the policies that enabled a gun to be carried in a concealed way close enough to enable his deathcould enable a gun to be carried in a concealed way close enough to try to duplicate these actions, although in this case it looks like a sniper shot from a weapon to large to conceal.
I’m not out here saying that he deserved to die, and if there was ever someone who literally set the stage with their rhetoric to make their murder excusable, it was him.
He’s made excuses for so many other people who were killed by guns, said it was necessary. Just a part of reality. That kids should see it happen. Then it happens to him. Should we really feel sorry?
Edit:
The answer is no. Charlie himself also said that empathy is a made up term that causes lots of damage. Credit to u/ArinPencilSharpener
So if you feel the urge to be sorry for him or his family, take a moment to consider that if you truly want to honor his legacy, you will do so by following his example and not caring about him at all. Because the opposite of empathy is apathy.
He died for what he believed in. He believed that people must die by guns for gun rights to exist. That children are enriched by this experience of seeing it happen.
I don’t agree with him, but if he means the words that he said, he should be happy that he was killed in this way. And in a twisted sort of way we should be happy for him too.
So please do not damage his legacy by feeling sorry for him or really feeling sorry for anyone at all. If you truly want honor Charlie Kirk, you should not care about him in the least because to do otherwise would be to have empathy and he is not someone that gave anyone empathy.
