The Charlie Kirk memorial

I watched most of it when I wasn't trying to get dinner together and I agree with most everything written here on Power Line, especially this:
The memorial was overwhelmingly a religious, not political, event. Thus, the climax came when Erika said that she forgave her husband’s murderer, as Jesus forgave those who crucified him. It was a moment of extraordinary emotional and intellectual power. But, speaking for myself, I will never forgive the liberals who created the conditions for the murder of Charlie Kirk, and many other evils.
That was a powerful - even jarring - moment.  Erika Kirk said that Charlie was dedicated to reaching out to the lost young men in America...like his assassin.  And she forgave him.

As a Christian I should agree with Erika Kirk.  But it's hard.
