"Like all of you, I am utterly stunned and heartbroken and sick to my soul today. It is unimaginable to write these words. I met Charlie Kirk when he was 18 years old, a young man so eager and determined that I immediately turned to a friend and said, That kid is going to be the head of the RNC one day,' began Shapiro."
"Charlie became even bigger and more important than that. It was a privilege to watch this principled man stand up for his beliefs and create the single most important conservative political organization in America. He continued: But more importantly, Charlie was a good man, a man who believed in right and wrong, who stood by his Biblical values. All of us will miss him, and I can't imagine the pain of his beautiful young family, and we must all pray for them."
"And we must pick up the baton where Charlie left it, fighting for the things he believed in so passionately. And we must fight for a better America an America where good people can speak truth and debate passionately without fear of a bullet. I weep for Charlie's family, and I weep for my country today. Most of all, I weep for Charlie."
Ben Shapiro publicly mourned Charlie Kirk after Kirk was assassinated at an event at Utah Valley University. Shapiro recalled meeting Kirk at 18 and predicted early prominence, saying he would be the head of the RNC one day. Shapiro praised Kirk as principled, a founder of a major conservative political organization, and a man who stood by Biblical values. Shapiro urged people to pray for Kirk's family and to pick up the baton and continue fighting for the causes Kirk believed in. Shapiro called for a better America where people can speak and debate without fear of violence. Kirk was 31 and is survived by his wife and two children.
