In reply to the discussion: 'We gotta turn the volume down': Charlie Kirk killing changed the 'mood' in Congress [View all]muriel_volestrangler
(105,140 posts)22. Turning the volume down seems disrespectful of Kirk's last wishes
Charlie Kirk posted his final message on X just hours before he was fatally shot in Utah.
...
Kirk wrote: "If we want things to change, it's 100% necessary to politicize the senseless murder of Iryna Zarutska because it was politics that allowed a savage monster with 14 priors to be free on the streets to kill her."
He shared a video, where he describes her death as "one of the coldest, most senseless murders I have ever seen".
"I don't like politicising situations, but it just necessitates it."
