Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin Tyler Robinson was “full of hate” in the days before the shooting, according to a family friend, as authorities revealed the 22-year-old had confessed to the assassination and had been turned in by a relative.

Bullets found in the chamber of the rifle reportedly used by Robinson included apparent left-wing slogans such as “Hey fascist! Catch!” and another referencing “Oh, Bella Ciao!” a popular Italian anti-fascist song.

One thing that can throw an inexperienced shooter off is getting sighted in on level ground and then shooting downward from a hill or tree stand (or roof) - you will hit high depending on the slope.

Aim lower if you are shooting up or down relative to your position. Here's a very good explanation on it.

How about using the unfired ones from his gun. They already have cute sayings inscribed.

🚨🚨🚨 A source has shared the probable cause affidavit on Tyler Robinson, the suspect in custody for Charlie Kirk's murder. I redacted Robinson's home address.

Contains all the details we learned in this morning's news conference, but as you’ll read, the investigator points out how on surveillance video Robinson walked with a gait in his right leg.

A separate federal source tells me Robinson indeed concealed the firearm in his pant leg pic.twitter.com/82z8U7iIl3— CB Cotton (@CB_Cotton) September 12, 2025

He likely was radicalized by Tik-Tok or Reddit.

Apparently from another thread, there was another family member who shared his political view against Charlie Kirk.

[Wrong, it doesn’t take a trained marksman. Just someone who has shot guns and can sight fairly good. I’m not trained, yet every year we go to the family farm at Christmas and practically the whole family goes out and shoots skeet. I can hit eight or nine out of ten every year without touching a gun for months. I’ve never been to a range, but I can target shoot pretty damn good.]


Some people think erroneously that a rifle is a pistol made less ergonomic because of a long barrel. They don’t get that a rifle is many times more accurate by design for a number of reasons - (1) a long barrel that stabilizes the bullet, lessens recoil, (2) rifling that stabilizes the bullet and (3) a cartridge with more gunpowder that gives the bullet a higher velocity so that it goes straight for further before the effects of gravity start to make the round droop and eventually fall to earth.

The bullet begins its fall due to gravity as soon as it leaves the barrel. They never go straight for any period of time. A higher velocity bullet takes less time to reach the target, so the drop is less than with a slower bullet.

I think what was on the cartridges was meant to be a misdirection and that he IS a groyper and an accelerationist.

It’s the same thing. You’re stripping someone of their humanness - or what is left of it.

Mussolini adopted a totally innocent, over 2000 year old Roman symbol, which then gave name to the fascist movement and even the antifa is named after it!
The symbol was quite popular in the past!
The infamous swastika is apparently 10,000 year old Hindu symbol for good luck, adopted by Hitler.

He is obviously no pro, and the planning was terrible.

I agree, and it's about what I would expect from a bunch of Antifa punks.

but this was no well organized and financed plot.

I agree. Financed out of pocket by a handful of Antifa punks, whose confidence in their organizational skills vastly exceeds the actual skills.

But this is the problem: these creeps are organized enough to plan and successfully execute an assassination ... just not well organized enough to get away with it. I've been saying from the beginning that the shot itself was not terribly difficult and that it didn't need "professionals" or highly skilled precision shooters.

The left is painting him as a religious right wing kid because of his parents.

Y’all know me but my sibling is as far left as it gets.

Same parents.

I know.
Crazy.
Right?

See post 363.

Claiming Charlie Kirk was full of hate—witnessed by family members before the fact—is classic leftist propaganda.

In fact that is the editorial position of the New York Times.

Fascists and Communists are the same thing - detesters of Liberty.
Root them out and rid Society of them, or Society will be murdered.

Straightening those teeth cost a lot of money, all for nothing.
