Charlie Kirk Assassinated
Conservative commentator Charlie Kirk was shot and died this afternoon at a rally in Utah.
RIP, Charlie.
Thanks for speaking the truth to power.
Your voice will be missed.
RIP.

I'm conservative and have no dislike for Charlie Kirk but this doesn't suprise me. He was always controversial and always out in front of a large crowd of people. That and considering the political climate of this society right now maybe he could have had better security. A ballistic shield maybe? Hope Ben Shapiro's security detail takes notes on this tragic incident.
Rest in peace Charlie Kirk.

I am terribly saddened by this, more so that my norm....I've watched many, many, Kirk vids of his debates on campus. He was brilliant and fair. Articulate and informed. A true free speech patriot.
I will miss his intellect and his mission greatly.
I am getting very tired of the violent left.

Yes, amazing how they can't handle the truth. They also can't take no for an answer without going full blown ballistic, like spoiled rich kids or something.
So much for the "tolerant and peaceful" left.
The do exactly OPPOSITE of what they preach and do EXACTLEY what they accuse others of doing..

I am surprised by the manner and degree that the assassination of Charlie Kirk has affected me. I have not considered myself to be a man of Faith, until now that is. This assassination lit a fire in my soul. We are at a watershed moment with the very foundation of our society under attack by the left. They fired the first shot in the battle, and by default, it is now a kinetic one.
One of our Brothers, (I am sorry I don't remember who with certainty, but Roy Burkhart comes to mind.) wrote a letter, admonishing the left, to stop pushing, lest they awaken the sleeping warriors! I believe we have been awakened, may God help you!

my sentiments exactly. so many vids of him inviting those who didn't like him or disagreed with him to talk. he was called names and cursed and he alwas engaged them with logic. In hindsight, what happened to him was inevitable. I'm sure his wife knew and probably told him at least once.
