I have heard that Charlie's wife forgave the killer.

Before even speaking to him.....it's really not how forgiveness (christian too) works, show apart.
These people are living in a self-perpetuating show.

Maybe you can illuminate us as to the correct way to forgive the person who murdered your husband in front of his children, I'm sure we're all very keen to hear it.

No riots or retaliatory violence yet at least

Maybe having a talk with him and process the death (it takes *TIME*, you know, "mourning" )? You can't just forgive for the sake of the show.
"I forgive because they taught me to do so" isn't forgiveness, it's parroting.

Retaliatory against who, Tyler Robinson?

Unclear whether his children were present at the shooting: (

Retaliatory against Them. That is, not the shooter (who is merely a hapless tool of Them), but the people who are said to have "actually" killed Kirk.
For example, there's apparently a list of people called Charlie's Murderers that aims to hold people who spoke disrespectfully of Kirk after the killing responsible for the killing. So far, the aim seems to mainly be getting these people fired by campaigning to their employers, but there are other punishments demanded for these people for their speech, such as banning them from online (or at least social media platforms) and deporting them from their countries. This kind of rhetoric is mostly coming from activists like Laura Loomer and Chaya Raichik (the organiser behind Libs of TikTok).
Additionally, some government officials, like the president and the attorney general of the US, have proposed various means of holding "Charlie's murderers" accountable, such as prosecuting people for hate speech and imposing a weapons ban on trans people (this was already discussed in the DOJ before the shooting, but got a second wind after the shooter was first believed to be trans, then thought to have been motivated by "trans ideology", and finally having been closely involved with a person who is suspected of being trans).

Finally we can talk about the "political disrespectfulness" after the "political correctness".......oh wait, they're opposite so taking the human logic as granted there's some consistency problem in the vision of the right wing (oh, the strangeness)

I'm pleased that the left is finally seeing what a mistake it was to invent cancel culture. Ideally this will lead to a period of self-reflection, but I think that's a forlorn hope.
