> If we could ask Charlie, I am sure he'd also think it was worth it!

Yes, agreed. He already did. He wouldn't want to disarm the nation to prevent his own death.

> I have no sympathy for white supremacists

Yes agreed, I sure Kirk would agree too, but that's offtopic here.

> Charlie once said that George Floyd was a "scumbag"

George Floyd was a scumbag. If you hold a gun to a pregnant woman's stomach, you're a scumbag.

> I am sure Charlie would have greatly appreciated me exercising my first!

Yes, agreed. He wouldn't share your opinion but he would support your right to free speech.
