Charlie Kirk was shot in the neck during an event at Utah Valley University, according to eyewitness accounts and reports from Deseret News.
A suspect has been apprehended, and a shelter-in-place order was issued for the campus, as confirmed by UVU campus police and a UVU alert sent to students.
Witnesses reported seeing blood after the shooting, and Kirk was rushed to a local hospital.
U.S. Senator Mike Lee stated he is closely monitoring the situation and called for prayers for Kirk and the attendees.
He was hit in the neck, skilled marksmen would struggle to hit his squished face.
The best sniper in the world couldn’t hit him between his eyes
Update: he dead
Straight to hell.
Holy shit
Just imagine the shooter’s name is Mario.
LMAO! Rot in piss Charlie. Thought and prayers out for the old white dude who shot him. Can’t wait to see who the next rung on the ladder is.
The old white dude apparently didn’t do it. He’s reportedly already been released.
-1 Keep going.
I wish for him the same as he offered for other victims of gun violence.
He was reporting answering or had just answered a question about gun violence. Someone asked if he knew how many shootings happen each day and he had some shit head “including gangs?” comment as part of his answer.
“Including gang violence” were his last words
Dead Nazi
Let’s fucking goooo
op beat me to it. and it’s always by other right wingers (allegedly so far).
i wonder if that has to do with how fascists push for and normalize violence.
Did they hit his forehead?
Through the neck.
It appears he died.
Charlie Kirk quote after a Tennessee school shooting:
“I think it’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths each year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational. Nobody talks like this. They live in a complete alternate universe.”

That’s a goner. Yep, NSFL btw, extremely close-up.
I don’t see how anyone could survive that but allegedly he’s in critical condition.
Edit: nevermind
So was JFK for a while.

Not safe for life.
Damn kind of wish I didn’t watch that
Yeah as someone who owns guns this really fucking re-affirms the fact that I never want to use them, even if I really fucking hate the person and they’re actively trying to kill me.
Wish I could unclick that link. But in a fucked up way I think if you own guns you should probably have to know what they do, and I don’t think words convey it well.
HOLY SHIT
This wasn’t a trump situation where he got nicked by a piece of something that broke and hit him in the ear. Would be insane if Charlie Kirk agreed to that. It was brutal.

My bad. I wasn’t paying attention to usernames and didn’t realize you were replying to your own comment. At least the response from the right is consistent with every other shooting. The response has been thoughts and prayers.
