Charlie Kirk fans pose for SELFIES at recreation of site where he was murdered
Daily Mail ^ | 12/20/26 | STEPHEN M. LEPORE

Fans of Charlie Kirk have been posing for selfies at what appears to be a recreation of the Utah Valley University site where the conservative activist was murdered.

The tent and photo setup is at AmFest, the annual youth conference for the organization Kirk founded, Turning Point USA.

More than 30,000 attendees gathered for the hectic opening night of the four-day event.

Liberal network MS Now was reporting from the event in Phoenix when they noticed some young people paying an unconventional tribute to Kirk, who was murdered by an assassin's bullet while debating on September 10.

'You can see from behind me, this is a recreation of the tent where Charlie Kirk lost his life at Utah [Valley] University in September, and people are taking selfies with it,' reporter Brandy Zadrozny said.

The display bears a striking resemblance to the scene where Kirk's killing took place.

Many are seen posing next to a framed mural of Kirk inside of a tent labeled with the famous 'prove me wrong' catchphrase that often launched his debates.

'You can see all around people are saying, like, 'For Charlie.' They're wearing replicas of the shirt that Charlie Kirk was wearing when he was killed. So there's that moment.'

The site caused significant outrage, including among supporters of Kirk and Donald Trump's MAGA movement.

Young people have no brains, class, or sense of decorum. What a $h!+ show.

It’s simply a replica of the “Prove Me Wrong” tent that Charlie used all of the time on college campuses. Google “Charlie Kirk Prove Me Wrong,” and you’ll see that same tent used in various locations.

No one goes to Dealy Plaza, or Fords Theater for selfies.

You are reacting in a way that shows lack of any critical thinking skills

Better than the morons of Minnesota “marching” for the Sammie Salamis who stole billions of dollars from American taxpayers. I’m pretty sure the average I.Q. in America has dropped to single digits while Joe Pedo Bidenskyyyyyy ran the country and had his 20 million foreign maggots overrun our borders to steal from our treasury. Why in the hell would any American want to just give billions of American dollars to African Sammies when we’ve already got millions of homeless Americans trying to survive here. Americans are some real dumbasses.

Yes, a BS story.

It’s the same type of tent that Kirk used everywhere he went. Why shouldn’t they use it at a major meeting of their group as a memorial to Kirk? And why shouldn’t his fans and followers be allowed to show and memorialize their support?

I have had my picture taken at the Reagan’s’ burial site in California. Should I be condemned?

There is a full court press to start infighting in the Maga movement, and turning point. Because the Uniparty is afraid.
