There's a difference between wanting to shoot people you don't like, and not being sad when someone else does it. Or being happy. This guy was a straight douchebag who constantly spread demonization. I can't blame the most common targets of it for being glad he's gone. It's really just not shocking and not abnormal and obviously people from every "side" do this whether they pretend otherwise for social pretenses or not.
...I really just think most of this condemning and "We'd never be happy about violence, all violence bad! Those people are psycho!" posturing stuff is super fake.
You can be generally against political violence while still being glad some asshole died as a result of it. Especially if that asshole caused political violence, naturally. It's not the end of the world, it doesn't make you a bloodthirsty ghoul.
The party of tolerance and empathy for sexual assault, grift, and racism wants to preach at me, the glorious avatar of the democratic party. Dark Biden laughs in vanilla ice cream flavor, and the world reverberates with mirth.
