What does make you praiseworthy is what kind of a person you are and how you live your life.

Charlie made his living by making lots of people angry, on both sides of the aisle. Conservatives were angry because of the way he painted the rhetoric as being damaging. Liberals were angry because of the terrible ideas he would espouse.

He did nothing to bring people together in order to help the human race progress. Those that sow in division and anger are not heroic, and deserve as much disdain as possible, for they obfuscate the true goal of humanity to live in peace and relative harmony. We all want that, nobody would say otherwise. Yet all he did was create the opposite of that reality for everyone.

Having children has nothing to do with your qualities as a human being. There's enough deadbeat dads out there to confirm that fact.
Is this wall of text supposed to convince me that it’s not sad that those kids father is dead?

It’s actually possible to disagree with what Kirk says, but also think political violence is bad, and that violence in response to speech is bad, and that murders are bad, and that two kids having their father murdered is bad.
