BATON ROUGE, La. (WAFB) - Vigils for Charlie Kirk are being held around the country, including in Baton Rouge. The College Republicans Group at LSU announced it is hosting a candlelight vigil for Kirk on Friday, Sept. 12.

The vigil begins at 7 p.m. at the Student Union. Kirk was fatally shot on Wednesday, Sept. 10, while speaking at Utah Valley University.

How will the inevitable leftist who tries to disrupt the vigil be dealt with?

Intentional or not, good idea having it on a Friday night.

Hopefully, most of the potential troublemakers will either be away or have something better to do.

If the libs know what's best for them they will stay away if their intention is to cause trouble. I'd imagine there will be some asses kicked.

Gonna bet security will be packed tight in there tonight. Lots of frat parties and people arriving on campus for a big game tomorrow that will be at the vigil. People pregaming + high emotions = powder keg.

I would hope nobody tries to be a dumbass and protest at a vigil.

I’ll be shocked if no fights break out. You damn well know there will be leftist college students trying to disrupt the vigils.

Honest question: should people be apprehensive about going to things like this?

My biggest fear with these are some lunatic brings a weapon and shots are fired.

Hopefully tonight is peaceful.

The risk will be minimal and I have to imagine there will be a solid police presence so that lowers the odds even further.

However, this is 2025 so keep that antenna tuned and if you get an uneasy feeling, feel free to bail.

Ended up going out there.

Was pretty powerful. Gov Landry spoke and was way more impressive than I ever imagined him being.

The surprise of the night was Mike Johnson who was phenomenal.

The former head of the TPUSA at LSU spoke and was amazing. She said she used to be basically a liberal. Said she was the girl who was ripping MAGA hats off students but after discovering CK, her world changed. Said she put her faith in Jesus and leaned into what CK spoke. She said both of these made all the difference in her life.

Imagine how sad, pathetic, and lonely the lives of the serial downvoters here must be.
