Melanie King Compiles Viral Reactions to Charlie Kirk's Death, From Celebration to Eyewitness Horror

[00:00] He's been one of the most divisive,

[00:02] especially divisive younger figures in

[00:04] this who is constantly sort of pushing

[00:08] this sort of hate speech or sort of

[00:10] aimed at certain groups. And I always go

[00:12] back to hateful thoughts lead to hateful

[00:17] words which then lead to hateful

[00:19] actions. And I think that's the

[00:21] environment we're in that that people

[00:23] just you can't stop with these sort of

[00:25] awful thoughts you have and then saying

[00:27] these awful words and not expect awful

[00:29] actions to take place. And that's the

[00:32] unfortunate environment we're in.

[00:33] >> Charlie Kirk got shot and killed. How do

[00:35] you feel?

[00:35] >> Uh happy. Goodbye.

[00:37] >> Wow. Did you see that Charlie Kirk just

[00:39] got shot and killed?

[00:40] >> That's good.

[00:41] >> Wow. That's good. That's good that

[00:44] people are getting shot just a political

[00:45] view.

[00:46] >> Charlie Kirk gets shot and killed today.

[00:47] We're just getting people's opinions.

[00:48] How do you feel about that,

[00:53] >> girl? Someone had to do it. And that's

[00:55] how I feel at this point in time. But

[00:58] >> I appreciate your honesty. I truly do.

[00:59] So, you said someone had to do it.

[01:02] >> Yes.

[01:05] Try not to get all pulled up into that,

[01:06] but he was a misogynist. Uh he was a

[01:09] disgusting person with disgusting

[01:10] beliefs. And there are a lot of people

[01:12] that are like, "No matter what side of

[01:14] politics you're on, you should never

[01:16] celebrate something bad happening to

[01:18] someone." I, on the other hand, do cheer

[01:20] when bad things happen to bad people.

[01:23] >> Charlie Kirk just got shot.

[01:29] >> Well, breaking news, folks. Seems

[01:31] somebody just took a shot at one of the

[01:32] Phantom Fastest favorite five mile wide

[01:35] mouthpieces. Charles Chuckle Kirk.

[01:40] [Music]

[01:43] in which a shooting like this happens.

[01:46] >> Yeah. And again, emphasize what you just

[01:48] emphasized. We don't know any full

[01:49] details of this that we don't know if

[01:51] this was a supporter shooting their gun

[01:53] off in celebration or so. We have no

[01:55] idea.

[01:56] >> Charlie Kirk is a divisive figure. Um

[01:58] polarizing, lightning rod, whatever term

[02:00] you want to use. Why?

[02:02] >> Uh well, he's one of MAGA's most

[02:05] prominent voices online. Then he hosts

[02:07] in your daily podcast.

[02:33] [Music]

[02:56] I have breaking news.

[02:59] >> We think that Charlie Kirk

[03:03] just got shot in the net. Hey,

[03:09] >> your cation.

[03:15] >> Cut the music. Cut the music.

[03:18] And real talk, I am not truly

[03:20] celebrating that he got shot in the

[03:22] neck. I think it's really sad for his

[03:24] family because I know he was a father

[03:26] and if he does pass away from this,

[03:28] hopefully not. Hopefully so. Um, that is

[03:32] not good because bringing kids up in a

[03:34] broken family is never good. And gun

[03:36] violence, again, I think we should go

[03:39] back to having this conversation. And

[03:41] who's allowed to have access to these

[03:43] guns because now public figures are

[03:46] getting shot left and right. I mean,

[03:48] it's not every other day, but truly,

[03:51] what a tragedy.

[04:00] I'm not saying she deserve a bit, but

[04:02] I'm saying God's timing is always right.

[04:05] [Music]

[04:13] >> Watch this video of the liberal left

[04:15] celebrating that abhorren assassination

[04:19] of Charlie Kirk last night. These are

[04:22] the tolerant. Now, correct me if I'm

[04:24] wrong. I've never seen a video

[04:26] collaboration of right-wingers

[04:28] celebrating anything like this. Makes my

[04:32] skin crawl.

[04:35] >> Yo, they got Charlie Kirk, bro.

[04:38] I've never been happier.

[04:40] >> Never believe the reason I'm smiling.

[04:43] And it has nothing to do with Charlie

[04:45] Kirk.

[04:47] Nothing to do with

[04:49] >> the world's lost.

[04:52] I would say pour one out for Kirky Boy,

[04:54] but I don't waste good beer on little

[04:56] [ __ ]

[04:57] >> I haven't posted on Tik Tok in a long

[04:59] time, but I'm going to now because rest

[05:02] in peace, Bozo.

[05:06] >> Charlie Kirk just got put down like a

[05:08] [ __ ] dog in Utah, and I could not be

[05:10] happier. Uh,

[05:12] >> jokes are inside.

[05:13] >> Praise [ __ ] B. I do not and I will

[05:16] not ever ever ever ever ever ever feel

[05:18] bad when bad people get what the [ __ ]

[05:20] they deserve.

[05:21] >> Charlie Kirk got shot.

[05:25] >> That's awful.

[05:27] That's so sad.

[05:29] Hope he recovers well. I

[05:33] >> And that, ladies and gentlemen, is the

[05:35] state of the world.

[05:38] Somebody gets killed in cold blood for

[05:40] having a different opinion and debating

[05:43] with intelligence and eloquently. And

[05:46] this is the reaction.

[05:49] >> I think the world's lost. I have no more

[05:52] words.

[05:53] >> Political violence, unfortunately, has

[05:55] been ratcheting up in this country. We

[05:57] saw the shootings, the killings in

[05:59] Minnesota. Uh we've seen other political

[06:02] violence uh occur in other states. And I

[06:05] I would just say uh it's got to stop.

[06:08] And I think there are people who are

[06:10] fermenting it in this country. I think

[06:12] the president's rhetoric often fermentss

[06:14] it.

[06:15] >> Please watch this snippet of a live of a

[06:18] girl who is celebrating

[06:21] the horrendous things that happened

[06:23] today.

[06:27] [Applause]

[06:34] Literally boom, boom, boom. Can't you

[06:38] just breathe a breath of fresh air?

[06:41] Like, doesn't the world doesn't the air

[06:44] doesn't the weight just feel lighter off

[06:48] of your shoulders?

[06:50] Can't believe it's 9:30.

[06:53] 2:00 p.m.

[06:55] 3 4 5 6 7 8 and I um

[06:59] This has been an all day event. Don't

[07:01] you feel like the world was made just

[07:03] bit of a safer place today?

[07:06] Hope Cor

[07:08] you evil [ __ ]

[07:12] >> This is the type of person that is

[07:14] exactly what's wrong with this country.

[07:16] >> He insulted your wife down the escalator

[07:18] and called Mexicans rapist and murder.

[07:19] He said, "Well, what do you think I

[07:20] should have done?" So, I think you

[07:21] should have punched him in the face and

[07:22] then gotten out of the race. You would

[07:23] have been a hero.

[07:24] >> I'd like to punch him in the face. I

[07:26] said if we were in high school, I'd take

[07:27] you behind the gym and beat the hell out

[07:28] of him.

[07:29] >> Punch some people in the face.

[07:32] >> When was the last time an actor

[07:34] assassinated a president?

[07:35] >> They're still going to have to go out

[07:36] and put a bullet in Donald Trump. And

[07:38] that's a fact.

[07:42] >> Look as his character is stabbed to

[07:44] death.

[07:45] >> Where is John Wilks booth when you need

[07:47] him? this way.

[07:50] That's it right there. Blow it up.

[07:51] >> I have thought an awful lot about

[07:54] blowing up the White House.

[07:56] >> I will go and take Trump out tonight.

[07:59] >> And if you see anybody from that

[08:01] cabinet, in a restaurant,

[08:04] >> in a department store, at a gasoline

[08:07] station, you get out and you create a

[08:09] crowd

[08:11] >> and you push back on them and you tell

[08:14] them they're not welcome anymore.

[08:17] anywhere.

[08:18] >> Breaking news. Charlie Kirk was in the

[08:21] neck. As of right now, I think his

[08:23] condition is unknown. And there are a

[08:25] lot of people that are like, no matter

[08:28] what side of politics you're on, you

[08:29] should never celebrate something bad

[08:31] happening to someone. I, on the other

[08:33] hand, do cheer when bad things happen to

[08:36] bad people. So, on behalf of everybody

[08:38] else, I got

[08:41] I don't know if he's going to make a

[08:42] recovery or not. I don't know what his

[08:44] condition is. It like just happened as

[08:47] I'm filming this. I saw the video of it

[08:49] happening. I do not feel bad for him in

[08:52] the slightest. And I'm very very much

[08:54] wondering what MAGA is going to react

[08:58] with. Um I wonder how they're going to

[09:01] make this about how black people

[09:02] shouldn't be allowed guns or trans

[09:04] people. They're probably going to blame

[09:05] a trans black person. I don't [ __ ] But

[09:07] we can all celebrate because something

[09:09] really awful happened to a really really

[09:12] awful guy. And again, if you're one of

[09:14] those [ __ ] people that are like, "No

[09:16] matter what happens, you should never

[09:17] wish death on some."

[09:19] >> I'm gonna cheer and dance and sing.

[09:22] Thank you very much.

[09:23] >> He's almost giving away the game. And it

[09:26] it's sad to see a lot of people going

[09:27] along with it

[09:28] >> to be there. And it's about to be there.

[09:31] >> When you are mentally ill, you have a

[09:33] hard time knowing that you are mentally

[09:35] ill. But also, I mean, people like

[09:36] Charlie Kirk, Van, they've been looking

[09:39] for opportunities to make this some sort

[09:41] of like reciprocal George Floyd

[09:43] situation. And I that's the part that I

[09:47] think he's almost giving away the game.

[09:49] And it it's sad to see a lot of people

[09:51] going along with it, you know. Let me

[09:54] just say a couple things. One is I mean,

[09:55] what happened to that young woman was

[09:56] horrible. And it's everybody's

[09:58] nightmare. if you're in a in any public

[10:01] space, subway, whatever, that something

[10:03] bad is going to happen to you or

[10:04] somebody you care about. So, it does

[10:05] strike a chord. We don't know why that

[10:08] man did what he did. And for Charlie

[10:10] Kirk to say, "We know he did it because

[10:12] she's white." When there's no evidence

[10:14] of that, it's just pure race uh race

[10:17] mongering, hate mongering, it's wrong.

[10:19] We don't know why that man did what he

[10:21] did. And for Charlie Kirk to say, "We

[10:23] know he did it because she's white,"

[10:25] when there's no evidence of that, is

[10:27] just pure race uh racial mongering, hate

[10:30] mongering.

[10:34] [Music]

[10:44] >> All the right-wingers that are

[10:45] criticizing the left for how we're

[10:47] reacting to Charlie Kirk's death, like,

[10:48] "Wa, look at the left. We're celebrating

[10:50] Charlie Kirk's death. I want to remind

[10:52] you guys how you reacted to Melissa

[10:53] Hortman's death. Melissa Hortman was

[10:56] shot in her own home. Her and her

[10:58] husband were shot in their own home by

[11:01] Vance Belter.

[11:03] Walked in their home and shot and killed

[11:05] both of them and their dog too. And

[11:07] there was no thoughts and prayers for

[11:09] them, no words of condolence from anyone

[11:12] on the right.

[11:14] There were jokes. You guys made jokes

[11:16] about it. nightmare on Wall Street and

[11:18] spread tons of disinformation.

[11:21] Disinformation because it was

[11:22] intentional. More important to get the

[11:24] narrative out that Vance Belter was a

[11:27] Democrat. No, the [ __ ] he wasn't.

[11:31] It was more important for people on the

[11:33] right to spin it and flood the zone with

[11:36] [ __ ] than it was for our safety and

[11:38] say that it's the left that are the

[11:39] violent ones with guns. The left are

[11:42] violent, but we're not going to call for

[11:44] gun reform.

[11:46] ironic.

[11:47] >> Basically, um I heard a loud bang, which

[11:51] I figured a shot would be a little bit

[11:53] louder, but uh I just saw it hit him in

[11:55] the chest and then all of a sudden just

[11:57] tons of blood gushing right out where

[11:59] his heart is and then he like fell over

[12:01] and slumped down and everybody got down

[12:03] and was screaming and then we all ran.

[12:06] >> Can you describe just did did he appear

[12:09] to be moving afterward or or what?

[12:11] >> Not at all. Um I personally believe he

[12:13] was dead on impact. Oh my goodness.
