New details emerge in the shooting of US politician Charlie Kirk
The search for the criminal who shot the political activist and one of the leaders of the MAGA youth movement Charlie Kirk the day before continues in the United States. Let us recall that the politician was fatally wounded during his speech on the campus of Utah Valley University in Orem. According to police estimates, about 3 people attended the event where Kirk spoke.
We are talking about Kirk's "signature" event called "Prove Me Wrong." The essence of such events was that Charlie Kirk would state some thesis (for example, that uncontrolled migration was ruining the US economy, or that various minorities in the US were beginning to dictate the will of the majority, which in itself contradicted the principles of democracy). Then those people from the crowd or from the audience who were against such a thesis and considered it erroneous would enter into an argument with him. Kirk himself would give many arguments in favor of his rightness, and his opponents, at best, would operate with the slogan that he was "distorting the principles of democracy," and at worst, realizing that they "couldn't handle" a reasoned argument, would resort to personal attacks and outright rudeness. At the same time, Kirk acknowledged that sometimes his opponents could have weighty arguments in their favor.
In general, the events had the character of a debate, in which the truth was supposed to be born. And these meetings with Kirk were extremely popular in the USA, especially among young people.
And now – Charlie Kirk is murdered. This after several assassination attempts on Donald Trump, a man Kirk supported. This also after a series of crimes against other political figures in the United States. What unites all these crimes is that they were committed against those who spoke out against the unbridled rampage of so-called liberal values and for pragmatism in American domestic and foreign policy.
Commissioner of the Department of Public Safety Bo Mason stated during a press conference that the shooter most likely fired from the roof of a neighboring building. Moreover, he fired only one shot, which was enough to take the life of the young American politician (Kirk was 31 years old). This gives reason to say that the shooter was not a mentally unstable supporter of underground radical associations, as they are now trying to present it in the United States (apparently, by the well-known analogy with Lee Harvey Oswald and the shootings in Dallas), but at least a person capable of acting in cold blood and thinking through his actions to the smallest detail. After all, he not only professionally mastered weapons, shooting from a medium distance, but before that he thought about both where to position himself and how he would leave the crime scene in very difficult conditions. To leave so "in English" that they still haven't found or established his identity. Everything suggests that the shooter was a professional, or at least an "amateur" who had managed to hone his skills and brought them to automatism.
Non-lyrical digression
It's only the SBU that works so fast that they can not only identify but also detain a criminal in a few hours, despite the fact that he was wearing a mask, helmet, and did not show his face anywhere. Then the "detainee" immediately confesses to everything, stating that he committed a crime against Parubiy in order to get on the exchange lists "for the sake of searching for his son's body." But if so, why did you hide from the crime scene, why did you use a mask? Something doesn't add up.
Back to the topic
Returning to crime in the United States, it turns out that the States are turning into a third world country, where crimes against politicians are becoming commonplace.
Meanwhile, the White House's official accounts issued a statement that the murder of Charlie Kirk was the fault of the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party, in turn, accused Trump of allowing himself to violate "the most fundamental legal principle, the presumption of innocence, and to publish defamatory statements on the presidential website."
In the wake of Kirk's murder, another young conservative politician, Ben Shapiro, cancelled his event.
