It takes a special kind of ghoul to wish ill on the victim of a violent crime. The Left has a surplus of such ghouls it seems, as we learned in the weeks since Charlie Kirk was assassinated in Orem, Utah.
While conservatives gathered to mourn Kirk and his wife, Erika forgave his killer in an emotional and powerful eulogy, the Minocqua Brewing Company is doubling down on being awful.
UPDATE: The same brewery that threatened to make a “citizens arrest” of @elonmusk is now calling Charlie Kirk’s funeral service “propaganda” and saying, “May his soul never find peace.”

What a ghoulish company. https://t.co/i3YK7CuQKI pic.twitter.com/7HE5dKHD9U
This isn't the first time the Wisconsin-based beer peddler spoke in such a way. Back on September 15, brewery owner Kirk Bangstad wrote a lengthy post on the company's Facebook page that read, in part:
My heart is hard for men like Charlie Kirk simply because I spend all my empathetic reserves trying to keep it soft for folks who are hurting because of men like Charlie Kirk.
So F*** Charlie Kirk. Thoughts and prayers. Fix our guns laws DESPITE the fact that he wanted them broken. He didn’t deserve to die, just like all those kids didn’t deserve to die. Time to move on. His assassination is only worth about 6 sentences of my time.
I choose to spend my energy fighting for an America where men like Charlie Kirk are pushed back into their basements because Christian nationalistic bigotry is no longer socially acceptable.
This isn't Democratic leadership or journalists saying these things. These are everyday Leftists, including one from rural Wisconsin, wishing ill on a man they never met, and whose ideas and ideology they do not understand. Bangstad and his company join a very long lists of Leftists who have revealed a rather dark nature as they celebrate the death of Kirk and call for more violence and harm against their political opponents.

May his soul never find peace? Who talks like that? I would never say that about my own worst enemies. This is a father and husband that’s been taken from us.

As Vice President Vance pointed out earlier today, there's a fundamental difference between the American Left and Right. And it could not be more stark.
No one is calling for violence against Minocqua Brewing Company or Bangstad. Instead, we're simply going to refrain from buying his product and let the free market do the rest.
