Let's Enrage the Left Even More: Make Oct. 13 "Charlie Kirk" Day
https://freerepublic.com ^ | Sept. 23, 2025 | All of us

Posted on 09/23/2025 2:23:04 AM PDT by Jess Kitting

For years, the Left has been carping about changing the name of "Columbus Day", a federal holiday on the second Monday in October.

Well, here's a great opportunity for us. Charlie Kirk's birthday is October 14. Let's designate Monday, Oct. 13 as "Charlie Kirk Day", "Revival Day", "Turning Point Day" or something similar. I don't think Columbus would mind sharing his day with a great American hero.

What do you think?

Should we change the name of "Columbus Day" to "Charlie Kirk Day"?

No, leave it the way it is.

Yes, officially. (That might take an act of Congress.)

Yes, unofficially. We can call the day whatever we want.

Yes, "Revival Day".

Yes, Something similar: Your ideas, please.

Columbus Day, and make it on the actual day, not the “let’s give the Post Office a three day weekend” day.

Labor Day would be better to replace. Sort of a commie concept anyway, i.e. support the workers.

Keeping Columbus refutes the anti-colonial crowd, which is one of the more recent marxist tropes.

The next CVN needs to be named USS Charlie Kirk.

Both Charlie Kirk and George Floyd had the same birthday, October 14. Make it good vs. evil day.

Let’s have a Charlie Kirk Day on October 14th every year. No need to replace Columbus Day. That can stay on a Monday. Charlie deserves his own day.

How about “European Colonizer Day”?

Love TP USA and the late Charlie, but leave Columbus alone.

While there are thousands of individuals who have made America great, there are only a few that are in a class by themselves, their contributions rising far above all others.
Christopher Columbus was one such person whose courage and determination exceeded all expectations.
George Washington was another such individual.

IMHO, ditch the stupid and self serving JUNETEENTH DAY and add September 10th to the calendar as a day of remembrance for Charlie Kirk, another man of great courage and determination.

October 14 is my Birthday, and President Eisenhower’s.

That’ll enrage the right who have pushed to get rid of people calling Columbus Day “Indigenous Peoples Day”. The left would just laugh, as they’ve been doing.

“We need Charlie Kirk Bvd’s all over the USA.”

We have hundreds of MLK Blvds across the country. No reason why we can’t have communities change street names to Charlie Kirk Blvd.

The left is always enraged. I am for not using Charlie to further enrage lunatics.

His legacy is big, important, and it is lasting. It is everyday.

Since Columbus Day, October 12th is my birthday, I hope it is left alone. Instead, I think September 10th should become Charlie Kirk Remembrance Day.

Make September 10th “Charlie Kirk Remembrance Day.” Leave Columbance Day, October 12th, alone.

Make the holiday on October 14, and the official title would be "Charlie Kirk Celebration Day And Not George Floyd Day" (they share the October 14 birthdate.)

And make it a day when government employees have to work for free.

Wear it loud and proud.
