That? That reads like “if you put a lot of hateful words out in the world you should expect it to lead to hateful action”. If anything this would be more relevant if Kirk inspired someone to kill any of the various groups he encouraged violence against. It doesn’t read at all like a justifying for killing him.
You're arguing against a straw man here - no one but you used the term "dealbreaker" or "major" conflict point. It can be true that it is not a dealbreaker but still a downside.
