"The person that I heard that justified his death was him, Welch said about Kirk. He's the one that said on tape that if school kids die but it means he gets to have a Second Amendment, then that's what it's going to be. He's the one that justified it."
"I think it's worth it 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."
"Everyone I know prefaces it the same way that you do he should still be alive. The man should not be dead. However, it is true he promoted guns, he did not want sensible gun legislation, and he said that you have to have a certain amount of casualties, so to speak, in order to have a Second Amendment. He did say that. And he happened to die that way. That's fact."
Jennifer Welch argued that Charlie Kirk's past remarks about accepting some gun deaths in order to preserve the Second Amendment amounted to a justification of his own death. Welch referenced a clip of Bari Weiss interviewing Erika Kirk and quoted Kirk's 2023 Turning Point USA comment about accepting a cost of gun deaths to protect the Second Amendment. Don Lemon responded that he did not know anyone who justified Kirk's death, while acknowledging Kirk's promotion of guns and opposition to sensible gun legislation and noting Kirk had voiced acceptance of casualties.
