I think the bar for whether or not you should be please about someone’s death (note that that’s not the same as advocating for it) is whether that person made the world a worse or better place from the point of view of the majority.
With someone like Charlie Kirk it’s easy, even by the standards of his own supporters he made the world a worse place because at least some of his supporters will have been hurt and killed by the things he supported and advocated for. After all the shooter could have decided he wanted to shoot up the crowd and in a way it would be Charlie’s fault that the shooter was allowed to have a gun without a background check.
