Anyone else realize today that their teens and young adults were followers of Charlie Kirk

Within minutes my kids all text me about Charlie Kirk being shot. I consider myself very political and conservative to the core but I had only watched his videos a handful of times. Plus, watching someone very intelligent debate morons was never very entertaining for me. I’m old school and mostly read about my news on here. I was pretty impressed that my 14 year old was very knowledgeable of Charlie Kirk and followed him on social media. I didn’t realize what a huge and positive impact he had on today’s young people. What a sad day for a country that seems to have a lot of sad days at the hands of mentally ill liberals lately. Charlie Kirk is no doubt basking in God’s glory and hopefully the young are inspired to continue his work.

They said he had 89 million followers. That's pretty outstanding

Most people have no idea the following he had.

That's why he was assassinated.

My 13 and 10 are old said something to me about it. I was shocked they would even know who he was.

Called my gf son basically my stepson he’s at ole miss. Charlie was a way for this generation to hear honesty and logic regardless of agreeing. He was truly a man for free speech anyone could take the mic. My stepson was looking forward to debating Charlie just because.

Just saw on one of the shows that there are 3500 chapters of TPUSA on HS and college campuses and over 250,000 members! I pray this event is a game changer.

This country celebrates the shitbags and mocks the killing of a positive role model. Proof that we live in an inverted, satanic world.

Charlie Kirk was an immensely more honorable man than MLK

My kids are still too young to follow politics although my 11 year old son is being raised right. I’ll see if he knows who Kirk is.

Charlie was the moderate version for today's young people. This will not go well.

They turned him into a martyr. That's one of the things I never understand why you'd kill someone for political reasons. Do they think this kind of thing silences a cause? It amplifies it X 10 million.

Charlie Kirk was a commentator who had a decent following and he was out doing his thing. Now he's going to be a MOVEMENT. And how could anyone ever think that would be different?

RIP Charlie Kirk.
