After a 22-year-old assassinated Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk on Wednesday apparently motivated by extremist beliefs, one Democratic influencer is trying to make the murder about him.
David Hogg, the vice chair of the Democratic National Convention, advocates for gun control through the group March For Our Lives.
“If I ever get killed by one of these right wingers politicize the fuck out of my death immediately (I’m talking before my blood runs cold) and use it to pass as many gun laws as possible and raise as much money as you can to primary Dems who refuse to support gun laws.”
Kirk’s shooter apparently lived with a transgender person and embedded symbols of apparent furry subculture references onto ammunition and the 30.06 hunting rifle that he used to kill Kirk on Wednesday from about 200 yards away.
While many mourn for Charlie, Hogg tried to use this assassination to advocate for gun control, said Kyle Kashuv, who survived the 2018 Stoneman Douglas High School shooting but advocates for gun rights.
The shooter fired a single bullet that struck Kirk in the throat. The shooter fled. The magazine didn’t have a high capacity. It was a bolt-action rifle. The shooter was 22-years old - old - four years older than the state requires to buy a rifle. It's unclear what gun laws Hogg supports that could have stopped this shooting,
The Kirk shooter was extremely online and he etched video game references, transgender, and antifascist symbols onto the weapon he used, the Wall Street Journal first reported.
The bullets read:
“Hey fascist! Catch!” “Notices bulges. OwO, what’s this?” “If you read this you are gay, lmao.”
According to law enforcement, Tyler Robinson confessed to the murder to his father, a former police officer. The family pastor was then informed, who contacted a U.S. Marshal, leading to Tyler’s arrest late Thursday night. President Donald Trump and Utah Governor Spencer Cox have supported the death penalty.
Robinson now faces multiple charges, including aggravated murder, felony discharge of a firearm causing serious bodily injury, and obstruction of justice.
On the same day that Kirk was assassinated, a a 16-year-old brought a revolver to school in Colorado and shot two students and himself. The two shootings share the same cause: getting radicalized in dark parts of the internet. Law enforcement said the 16-year-old shooter's motive is unclear but he was "radicalized by some extremist network."
Killed by a right winger? You believe you are more important than reality.
David Hogg makes EVERYTHING about himself. he probably makes funerals about himself. They call him Attention Hogg for a reason.
David Hogg does not care abotu dead kids,except in so far as he can exploit their deaths to promteo and aggrandize David Hogg.
Period. Full stop.
QED
He’s one person I wouldn’t mind seeing killed by an illegal driving drunk. I’m sure he’d want us to deport all illegals, before his blood ran cold.
This Hogg jackass is such a narcissist.
Attention Hogg needs to move to Cuber or Venezuela to live out his life in a workers’ paradise.
He is of no furthur[sic] use here.
I always believed that Hogg was involved in the school shooting. He was friends with the perp and the day of the shooting he wasnt even there but felt the need to go on his lil tricycle to the scene..he knew, check the text messages from that day
Hogg kind of has a similar phenotype as Kirk’s killer and Crooks. Very effeminate weirdos. I was shocked that he was found out hitting chicks online by the dozens because he looks so damn gay.
I don’t. Waste of time.
Hogg boy is a piece of crap.
Hogg boy is the perfect representative of today’s RAT party.
Aw, Davey, that’s no way to talk about your biggest supporters! We wanted you on the DNC soooo bad...
I wish you a long life, Hogg. You and Greta are solid gold for the side of normal people. Keep talking 👍
Add to that Jizzy Crockett, AOC, and the rest of the Squat.
They are out best assets.
You are totally insignificant.
For self aggrandizing megalomaniacs ignoring is worse than the fires of purgation.
Burn, Davey, burn!
He is fantasizing about his own martyrdom. What a egotistical nutcase.
In your dreams, David Hogg.
Dont worry,david, conservatives are not unhinged self absorbed. Mentally ill lunatics like you and your ilk are... you are perfectly safe.
Conservatives on the other hand are not safe from your lunatic friends znd party. All the violence has come from your side, not ours. If you wern’t so blinded by your hate and ignorance, you would see that clearly enough to realize that it is YOUR PARTY that you need to worry about, not our party, ya feckless Drama queen!
