You Don't Have To Know More

As of the time I'm writing to you, law enforcement has not yet offered a motive for Charlie Kirk's murder.  It's easy to jump ahead with assumptions that it was about his politics, but it's important to wait until the evidence is assembled before jumping to conclusions.  But you don't have to know more than we already do to know that it is wrong to kill people for their political views.  We can stand for decency.
