Pennsylvania was asked about Kirk’s death because it happened a few days before he sat down with The Times. The actors come up with a detailed response that measures the meaning of being “human on Earth” before directly addressing the topic.
“First of all, like being humans on Earth, I can say I’m dealing with what’s going on. I’m increasingly losing any form of understanding why we as a country become so in line with the polarization of the public, when anyone we talk to each other knows that while there is such an incredible partisan candidate expressing itself in a fanatical way of expressing itself in terms of the power of money and the media, it’s not an impact on the individual and the media.
“I’m going to Charlie Kirk. These violent fashions seem different. They seem different from members of Congress. They seem different from the insurance director. They seem different from the president’s attempts. There’s something.”
Although Payne also said he didn’t follow Kirk’s job, he said he doubted the conservative podcast was “one of the people who certainly disagree with almost everything.”
“I didn’t feel like he was one of these snake oil salesmen. I think we need That guy. We need this debate,” he continued. “We have to fight it and find a compromise. These things really get stuck in fashion, and the way we kill it fashion is people with conscience on both sides realizing that if someone really believes something, it’s yours friend. ”
After Penn was asked whether his answer was dependent on someone’s beliefs, he clarified: “ I’m not talking about some social disease Nazism. I’m talking about it, if someone thinks that human beings start with conception, if you don’t understand the concept, then you’re just stupid. And if you don’t want to think of this concept as a concept, that’s something I probably don’t know, I don’t know, Let the woman decide. All of these are valid opinions. What is the consensus in society? The murderer who shot the insurance supervisor? I’m not a fan of health insurance companies, but Jesus, man, is that the best argument you’ve got? ”
