A group of Arizona high school teachers faced death threats after being accused of mocking Charlie Kirk's assassination by wearing bloody T-shirts emblazoned with the words 'Problem Solved' to school on Halloween.
The math teachers from Cienega High School outside Tucson came under fire when Andrew Kolvet, a Turning Point USA (TPUSA) spokesperson, claimed they were making light of the activist's murder.
'Concerned parents just sent us this image of what’s believed to be teachers... mocking Charlie Kirk’s murder with costumes,' Kolvet wrote in a since-deleted X post, according to KJZZ.
A photo shared by the Vail School District depicted eight smiling teachers, posed outside the high school, wearing the shirts, which were drenched in fake blood on one side.
The image and its assumed significance spread like wildfire among prominent conservatives and supporters of the murdered TPUSA co-founder.
Anthony Kern, a Donald Trump-endorsed former Arizona Republican Senator, said the teachers were trying to 'promote violence against MAGA.'
'This is what taxpayers hire to teach our kids!?' he asked.
Jack Lombardi II, a Republican Illinois House candidate, wrote: 'All left-wing, hate-filled, indoctrinating educators in Tucson, Arizona - dressing up to mock Charlie’s murder.

Given over to reprobate mind.
I’m confused. What year was this Halloween costume done in?
I”m confused as well by your question (I got up WAY too early this morning; it could be just me) so some clarity:
If you click through to the post, I outline both the bloody shirts they wore this year (2025) and which the left claims they wore last year...
...but in that post I link their farcebook page which - at least at the time of the screenshot - still prominently displayed the image of their 2024 Halloween costumes, all of which were different and NONE of which were the bloody shirts.
They are BUSTED and somehow the scrutiny is drawing down rather than ratcheting up.
I have not slept all night, thanks for explaining things
Dude, I’m with you (lack of sleep; working on that).
Too bad they are only threats
That Halloween shirt design came out more than a year ago:

Algebra problem needed for these math teachers. If F is added to A and multiplied by F added to O?
Answer, it’s the salary you just lost for your unprofessional conduct, and potential risk to children given your violent display.
These people should not be allowed near children.
Thanks. I can’t see the blood on the shirts pictured at your link
I meant to say I can’t see the date
Interesting, thanks. I didn’t know that about the fonts or the kirk/church connection.
I’d like to see every one of these commie teachers get canned.
You have to page down on the Amazon listing to Product Detail s. The shirts first went on sale on September 13, 2024.
It seems there's a whole line of them with similar messages, Not My Blood, etc.
FWIW I don’t think a T-shirt company put the red on those shirts.
If they had the red would all be the same pattern but no two shirts there have identical red patterns.
Those people applied the red to their shirts themselves.
Funny how it says on Amazon that it was first available on Sept. 13, 2024 yet some of the reviews are dated in Aug. ‘24.
See post #36.
The “Internet Archive” “Wayback Machine” has Websites archived with that tee shirt in August 2024...here is one:
Fair enough.
How about the different patterns of red on each of their shirts? I’m not an expert on screen printing T-shirts but wouldn’t the pattern be the same on all shirts?
Probably dozens of “copycat” shirts being made by different silk screen shops (dozens listed in a “Duck Duck Go” search including Chinese ones/AliExpress)(no copyright on the design) so variations to be expected probably. Am not really vested in the topic (not my local school district)...I was just pointing out it WAS possible for the teachers to have worn the same shirts last year.
