""You will never live in a society when you have an armed citizenry and you won't have a single gun death," Kirk said. "That is nonsense. It's drivel. But I am-I think it's worth it.""
""I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal. It is rational. Nobody talks like this. They live in a complete alternate universe.""
Charlie Kirk was shot and later died during an event at Utah Valley University on Wednesday. Video circulating on social media shows Kirk answering a question on mass shootings moments before he was shot, with blood visible on his neck. A suspect was arrested and later released, according to FBI Director Kash Patel, and the investigation continues. In 2023, after the Christian Covenant School shooting in Nashville that killed three children and three adults, Kirk said some gun deaths were an acceptable cost to maintain the Second Amendment, remarks made at a Turning Point USA Faith event.
