Charlie Kirk shot at an event in Utah

[DontTreadOnMe]

Absolutely horrific.

Poor man, only 31 years old.

And i think his daughter must have pretty much witnessed it. 

Rest in peace.

So young, and those poor kids.
One news person commented that you will not see his children's faces in those pictures of the family.
He knew society can be  dangerous.

I pray his murder was not in vain.

 Democrats REJECT prayers for Charlie Kirk as moment of silence devolves into House floor shouting matchBy JON MICHAEL RAASCH, US POLITICAL REPORTER 
PUBLISHED: 17:41 EDT, 10 September 2025 | UPDATED: 18:35 EDT, 10 September 2025
 
 
The House of Representatives burst into chaos as Speaker Mike Johnson attempted to lead a prayer for Charlie Kirk after the father-of-two was shot dead in Utah on Wednesday.
Kirk, 31, the founder of Turning Point USA, a conservative youth organization that regularly hold events on college campuses nationwide, was shot in the neck at an event at Utah Valley University in Orem and died about two and half hours later.
His assassination not only devastated many members of Congress who knew the activist personally, but unleashed sadness, confusion and anger among lawmakers in the Capitol on both sides of the political spectrum.
'Political violence must be called out,' Johnson said in a statement about an hour after the shooting. 
'We need everyone who has a platform to say this loudly and clearly: we can settle disagreements and disputes in a civil manner.'
He then went inside and held a moment of silence for Kirk on the chamber floor as questions swirled about whether the father-of-two was alive or dead.
Following the somber moment of silence, Lauren Boebert, R-Colo., called out to Johnson to hold a moment of prayer for the 31-year-old.
That's when things got ugly. 
Some Democrats, clearly against the request for prayer, began cheering in unison 'No!

 
One unidentified Democrat in the room shouted out something about a school shooting at Evergreen High School, Colorado, on Wednesday, asking why no prayers had been offered for that tragedy, which happened within hours of Kirk's. 
Three people were rushed to hospital in a critical condition after the school shooting.
There were about a dozen Democrats who protested against the prayers for Kirk.
One unidentified Democrat blurted out: 'Pass some gun laws!'
The liberal lawmakers' rejection of the prayer immediately enraged Republicans.
'You f***ing own this!' screamed Florida Republican Anna Paulina Luna.
She accused Democrats earlier in the day of being the origin of the violence against Kirk.
'I am done with the rhetoric this rotten House and corrupt media has caused,' she posted on X shortly after the news of the shooting broke. 'Every damn one of you who called us fascists did this.'
Speaker Johnson, frustrated with the screaming across both aisles, bashed his gavel and used his microphone to demand order in the House.
The speaker quickly got both parties to settle down.
Before he entered the House floor, Johnson noted how he was close with Kirk - a figure who has been ever-present in conservative circles since TPUSA's founding in 2012.
'It's devastating news,' Johnson told reporters before the moment of silence. 'The idea that political violence has taken one of the strongest voices on the conservative side is a great heartbreak.'
'Charlie was a close friend of mine and a confidant, and he will be sorely missed, and we need every political leader to decry the violence and to do it loudly. The problem is in the human heart, and it's gotten out of hand.'
Other lawmakers shared their devastation with the Daily Mail.
'I lost a friend today,' House Foreign Affairs Chairman Brian Mast, R-Fla., told the Daily Mail.
Florida Republican Rep. Cory Mills told the Daily Mail: 'It's such a horrendous and just horrific incident to watch. My thoughts and prayers are obviously with him and his family.'
California Democrat Rep. Ro Khanna stated: 'Political Violence is no place in America. I'm saddened, and we need to do better as citizens of this country, the hate and anger that has taken over.'

Before you continue to post things about others that appear to cheer on such a thing, remember that some people do very stupid things.
Keep that in mind please.

So? 

I just watched it 3 times, the azzholes cheered enough to make Levin(a lawyer) pause.... he knows they wil catch shit for this and rightfully so..

I was thinking the same thing - both assassination attempts on Trump were clearly organised and involved far more people than just the shooter.
This looks the same.

This time, however, we have a LIVE assassin (allegedly) in custody.
We will get answers...and if there are others involved...we'll get them as well.

[CriticalStinker]

This is so similar to the first attempt on Trump.
TOO similar.
I wonder if this suspect has a variety of encrypted phones as well.

I'd say most people have encrypted phones these days. I think the multiple might be the only part where the masses deviate from that though.

Sooner or later, the center needs to reject extremism on both sides ....

The canonization of of Luigi Mangione should have showed us exactly where this is going. For the left, some people deserve to die. That "deserve to die" is an ever growing metric. Depending on who the shooter is, most likely that person will be canonized as a left saint.

And whatever was going on could have been completely unrelated.

ASSumptions -- ya know.

Your watching ability does not reduce the if factor.

Lets not go around doing that.

Yeah, we live in an "IF" world...

Things that are this fresh are rarely 100% nothing wrong with the suggestion, it was in bad taste at the least.

tired of people making feeble attempts to excuse bad behavior on thier side of an argument
