Father, do not mourn for me. Mother, do not weep.
Whatever a man soeth, that also shall he reap.
According to NYT (cw: gift link to live report with details of shooting) the moments before the shooting were even more fitting:
Video posted on social media shows the moment Charlie Kirk was shot and the seconds leading to the incident. Kirk was being asked questions about mass shootings in America.
“Do you know how many mass shooters there have been in America in the last 10 years?” a person asks. “Counting or not counting gang violence?” Kirk responds right before he is shot.
ETA Additional context: The person first asked how many mass shooters were transgender in the last ten years, Kirk said "Too many", the person said it's five, then asked the question about total mass shooters. I could infer it as an attempt to compare the two relative to amount of right-wing outrage over the gender identity of shooters.
- He died doing what he loved, scapegoating African Americans.
  Godbless.
- I was saying earlier that the shooter must have been listening to a feed to time that shot perfectly to coincide with the question, but then my friend said "This is Charlie Kirk, you could have shot him at almost any time and it would have been wildly ironic and appropriate."

It's not a hyperbole, it's literally what he said.
- Fake news! I don't care if it's a quote or actual video of him saying it. It's fake news, a librul hoax!

I think it's eminently fair to say that, on some level, this is how he'd have wanted to go.
He made a persuasive argument today
*said
Prayers 😂 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"Live by the gun, Die by the gun"
Reddit is a cesspool about this. Holy shit glad I left.
Also Charlie Kirk: "Not like that!"
Of course he did. Power is more important to them than any life.
At least it's an honest argument, unlike pretending that gun ownership has no effect on deaths, or changing the subject to avoid addressing it.
- I for one respect his ability to stick his neck out for his beliefs.
Later douche
With that head? You have to be extra careful of teabags.
We can only be in awe of the accuracy of the shooter getting him between the eyes.
He makes a compelling argument...

  I can't tell if you actually deleted your comment, or if that is a clever comment about Charlie Kirk.
  
  I think I commented the same thing across duplicate posts in different communities so I deleted one... But I like your idea better
