Comedians not sure how to react to Charlie Kirk because they still want to call Trump a 'Hitler'?

Rahul Pandya, Charleston White were never that funny but happily react to murder


South Park used to make funny of everyone until islamists and jihads won with their threats
now the Charlie Kirk episode is also gone...and it was not a reaction, it was a joke long before the shooting happened.

Andy Dick type people happened to comedy?
https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004873/

In April 2011, Dick was at a party connected with Newport Beach Film Festival. He appeared intoxicated, exposed himself, urinated on a backdrop and afterwards destroyed it by pulling it down. The organizers said this caused thousands of dollars of damage and considered suing Dick over the incident.

Andy Dick has a longstanding feud with former NewsRadio costar Jon Lovitz concerning the death of their mutual friend Phil Hartman. According to Lovitz, Dick had given Hartman's wife Brynn cocaine at a Christmas party at Hartman's house in 1997; Brynn, a recovering addict, began using drugs again, culminating in her killing of Hartman and her suicide on May 28, 1998. When Lovitz joined the cast of NewsRadio as Hartman's replacement, he and Dick argued; Lovitz shouted: "I wouldn't be here if you hadn't given Brynn coke in the first place". Lovitz later apologized to Dick for the remark.
