UPDATE/URGENT: CHARLIE KIRK HAS BEEN ASSASSINATED

Charles James Kirk was 31, married, with two children. He was born on Oct. 13, 1993 and shot to death while speaking at an event at Utah Valley University. His assassin remains at large, and a person detained after the shooting has been released.

Cause and effect?

He’s HARD to spot, but if you look on the top highest roof there is a man running in this video.

  1. The Bible instructs us not to pray for the dead.
    We are to pray for the living i.e. his wife and children.

  2. The assassin has not been caught as far as I understand, why the older man was arrested I don’t know.

  3. The FBI is saying the shooter has been arrested.

    The shooter was a good shot but untrained and not use to judging distance, my guess is that he was aiming at the chest but misjudged the distance and shot high.

    The Dems rhetoric is getting the results they want, they are working for a kinetic asymmetric civil war. This is either the second or third shooting tied to their rhetoric and there will be more, we can expect one or ICE agents to be shot in the near future thanks to the lefts continued rhetoric about how evil they are.

    Anyone who thinks this violence won’t spread to other nations is sadly mistaken, the international left is working hard to destroy all Western Nations and want the chaos to spread to give them an excuse to seize power and destroy the idea of individual rights and freedom.

    • The second suspect has now also been released after some hours…I find it hard to sleep even as it’s getting really late here.

      Excerpt:

      The Kill Shot: Why the Neck?

      The bullet struck Kirk in the neck/throat area, dropping him within seconds. This wasn’t random it was a deliberate choice of one of the body’s most lethal target zones. The neck houses the carotid arteries, jugular veins, trachea, and spinal cord. Damage there leads to rapid incapacitation and often immediate death.

      This same anatomical precision echoes another recent attack: the stabbing of a Ukrainian refugee on a Charlotte light rail train, where the victim was also struck in the neck multiple times. Both attacks show assailants aiming for a quick, definitive kill. Whether that overlap is coincidence or something more revenge, symbolism, or training commonalities is unknown. But the detail adds another disturbing layer to Kirk’s assassination.

      And this Video:

      An eyewitness says the shot that took the life of Charlie Kirk was fired right after he was asked about trans violence, as if it were coordinated.

      He believes it wasn’t just one person acting alone, but several people working together.

      He also claims that someone in the crowd confessed to the shooting right after it happened, even though they didn’t have a weapon.
