Charlie Kirk shot at Utah Valley University

[Anonymous]

This afternoon people were posting the alleged name of the shooter. Has that been confirmed or refuted?

+1 This is embarrassing. From the same administration who thought stars and crowns were gang tattoos.

We’re only doomed if we don’t get maga violence in check and stopped. These people are willing to kill and are armed to the teeth. We MUST get them under control. If we don’t not, then yes, we are doomed.

I don’t think the name came from an official source. I haven’t seen any more about it so I assume it’s fake.

A lot more people agree with you than not. Look this 24-hour news coverage is ridiculous. Not one mention today of the murders in Colorado. Half of America are saying Charlie who, or that guy who was killed that’s all in the news. What did he do?

Yeah I had never heard his name before the shooting. Even after the shooting I had no idea it would blow up like this.

This is the first I had ever heard of Charlie Kirk. Absolutely no clue who this person was.

He is MAGA famous. If you aren’t into online political content on twitter and tik tok, odds are you won’t know him.

Untrue. He was constant presence on college campuses. Started Turning Point USA when he was only 18 years old. There’s a reason why his political assassination is huge news.

He's right.

Federal law enforcement has designated right-wing violence as the most pressing domestic terror threat.

This is simply a fact. The assassination of Kirk doesn't change that.

Where is your fact coming from? Out of curiosity, I looked to see if the federal government has said this. I didn't find anything supporting your fact. Rather, this Homeland Security report from 2025 identifies Domestic Violent Extremists as the primary threat, and defines them to be individuals motivated by various ideologies (emphasis added):

A Domestic Violent Extremist (DVE) is an individual based and operating primarily within the United States or its territories without direction or inspiration from a foreign terrorist group or other foreign power who seeks to further political or social goals wholly or in part through unlawful acts of force or violence. The mere advocacy of political or social positions, political activism, use of strong rhetoric, or generalized philosophic embrace of violent tactics alone does not constitute violent extremism and may be constitutionally protected. DVEs can fit within one or multiple categories of ideological motivation and can span a broad range of groups or movements. I&A utilizes this term synonymously with “domestic terrorist.”

The extremism needs to be dialed down and we need better gun control. Anyone disagreeing with this is just plain wrong.

On the sidelines politically, but you are crazy. A person was politically targeted for exposing political stuff, and you think they are going to give up their guns so they can be murdered more easily? LMAO!

This event will cause another 100 million gun sales in the USA, adding to the already 900 million firearms out there.

Maybe ask yourself why you are so uninformed.

Why should we burden ourselves with such things? Don’t you have enough personal issues to occupy your time? Don’t we all have enough on our plate? Why do I need to entertain this?

Ask yourself why you opened thread “Charlie Kirk shot” on a political forum and repeatedly post.

He was youth famous. It is not surprising DCUM posters, who tend to be out of touch with youth trends, did not know him.

Kirk was pretty for down in the RWNJ political content. The vast majority of people never heard of him unless you are watching RWNJ stuff.

Yes I am an old bag, no clue who he was. I feel bad but I also feel bad for the kids just shot in CO and the Ukrainian girl who was murdered and the people shot every day in my city. I feel the same about all of them. It’s sad but I am a jaded and callous old person who has seen lots of sh!t.

That’s so completely stupid that it tracks perfectly for 2025 America.

Even the NFL held a moment of silence for Charlie Kirk. Yankees did as well last night.

The name came from 4chan. Probably why the original poster of the name didn't provide a source.
