Witness Henry Dells Recounts Final Moments Before Kirk Was Shot, Describes Interaction With Transgender Questioner

[00:00] Our next guest was the first

[00:01] person to take the mic

[00:03] at Kirk's event yesterday,

[00:05] and so you can see him there

[00:07] asking about religion

[00:08] in the Mormon church.

[00:10] Just moments before

[00:11] Kirk was shot and killed.

[00:12] Let me play for you this exchang

[00:15] Said we are fine.

[00:16] Polite discussion

[00:18] on what I love about Mormons at

[00:21] is that they can afford.

[00:25] Him plenty.

[00:26] His time for Mormons.

[00:27] You know Joe back.

[00:28] No one is LGBT stuff.

[00:34] Them and church

[00:35] companies need to.

[00:39] Henry Dallas is out front now.

[00:41] He was the one asking the questi

[00:42] And, Henry, obviously,

[00:44] I'm very sorry for what you witn

[00:46] and what you have now gone throu

[00:48] You were

[00:48] you were there yesterday

[00:49] asking questions, standing

[00:51] actually at the front

[00:52] because as Charlie Kirk

[00:54] walked out to to the crowd

[00:56] and then you got selected

[00:57] to ask the first question,

[00:58] I mean, literally moments

[00:59] before he was killed, right?

[01:00] You get picked,

[01:01] you start asking your question.

[01:03] Can I just ask you, first of all

[01:05] and I

[01:06] say what it was like for you,

[01:08] what it meant to you

[01:10] to have that interaction with hi

[01:11] to be picked, to ask a question.

[01:13] The Church of Jesus Christ of La

[01:15] Saints, who is more?

[01:16] Yeah.

[01:17] I mean, it was

[01:17] it was something

[01:18] that was unbelievable to me.

[01:19] I actually found out

[01:21] just like a couple of days earli

[01:24] that Charlie was actually coming

[01:26] and, you know, I, I,

[01:28] a couple of friends

[01:28] messaged me from the avenue.

[01:29] They said, hey,

[01:29] we should all collectively, coll

[01:31] try to go and ask him a question

[01:33] I mean, he was a big, monumental

[01:34] for us.

[01:35] And, me and a bunch of friends d

[01:37] apologetics and debate all the t

[01:39] And we loved his debate tactics.

[01:41] And we study it, and we do it of

[01:42] And he was a big inspiration to

[01:44] and meant a lot.

[01:46] So you ask your question,

[01:47] and obviously he's

[01:48] talking about Mormons there,

[01:50] and wanting them

[01:51] to have a lot of children.

[01:52] And then you were done.

[01:54] Right.

[01:55] And you passed the mic

[01:56] to the next person, right?

[01:57] And the next person after you. H

[01:59] And this is something I don't kn

[02:01] if it

[02:01] has sunk into you

[02:03] and really in so many ways,

[02:04] but that's the person

[02:06] who asked the question

[02:06] about transgender shooters, righ

[02:08] The question that was,

[02:10] right before Kirk was shot.

[02:12] Now, I understand, Henry,

[02:13] that you did have a chance

[02:15] to speak with the person

[02:15] who asked that question.

[02:16] It was a man before the event st

[02:19] what can

[02:19] you tell us about that conversat

[02:21] when you were talking about your

[02:23] your questions?

[02:23] The chance that you both had to

[02:28] Yeah.

[02:29] after we each kind of got select

[02:30] they picked about 4 or 5 of us

[02:32] to be at the front of the line.

[02:34] we each kind of

[02:34] had about five, 5 to 6 minutes

[02:37] where we just kind of discussed,

[02:39] hey, like,

[02:39] what are we going to talk about?

[02:41] What are your questions

[02:42] and what are your questions?

[02:43] You know,

[02:43] there was a lady

[02:43] that was going to talk

[02:44] about some abortion issues,

[02:45] which was understandable.

[02:47] And Charlie talks

[02:47] about them all the time.

[02:48] There was some racial issues

[02:49] and his was transgenderism.

[02:51] And, you know,

[02:52] the why people feel like

[02:54] they are something that they are

[02:56] And, I never got anything out of

[02:59] or even heard anything where he

[03:01] to refer to anything about shoot

[03:03] I think it's I don't

[03:04] I mean,

[03:04] I don't know if it was purposefu

[03:06] or what the whole thing was,

[03:07] but it was shocking to me.

[03:09] Just, looking back after the eve

[03:12] the sequencing of everything and

[03:14] I think, it

[03:15] kind of just

[03:16] leaves me guessing a little bit.

[03:18] Right?

[03:19] Because you're saying he

[03:20] you knew it was a question

[03:21] about transgenderism, but

[03:23] it sounds like

[03:24] from your conversation with him,

[03:25] could you tell that he disagreed

[03:26] with Charlie on that issue?

[03:28] Or could you not even tell that,

[03:31] yes. Yes, ma'am.

[03:33] As a matter of fact,

[03:34] I think I was, which was kind of

[03:36] the first person asking the ques

[03:38] I actually really didn't disagre

[03:39] with Charlie on a lot of things

[03:40] in regards to politics.

[03:41] I agree, it,

[03:42] the only I defined the religious

[03:45] so I could find something

[03:45] to disagree with him on.

[03:47] but the three people behind me

[03:48] all had things that they disagre

[03:50] Charlie on.

[03:51] like I said,

[03:51] it was either transgenderism.

[03:53] it was either

[03:55] a race, aspect or if it was,

[03:59] what was the other thing?

[04:01] Yeah, something I forget.

[04:03] I'm sorry.

[04:04] No, that's all right. That's all

[04:05] I certainly didn't mean

[04:05] to put you on the spot

[04:06] in that way, Henry,

[04:07] but I, I actually,

[04:08] just as you and I are speaking,

[04:09] we got a video from the person

[04:11] from the guy after you. Right.

[04:12] The one who asked the question

[04:13] about transgender shootings at y

[04:15] that you're explaining

[04:16] had told you is going to ask

[04:17] about transgenderism

[04:18] but did not mention shooting at

[04:20] that person just shared

[04:22] a video statements with us.

[04:24] Just got it.

[04:25] I haven't heard it myself.

[04:26] Let me play it.

[04:27] You and I can hear it together.

[04:28] Henry.

[04:30] And people have obviously pointe

[04:31] to the irony that

[04:34] I was the point that I was tryin

[04:36] make is how peaceful was

[04:40] right before you got shot.

[04:42] And that.

[04:45] That only makes sense

[04:46] if we stay peaceful.

[04:48] as much as I disagree with Charl

[04:49] Kirk, I'm on the record

[04:50] for how much I disagree

[04:51] with Charlie Kirk.

[04:52] But, like,

[04:53] man, dude, he is still a human b

[04:57] Have we forgotten that?

[04:58] Or we create, like.

[05:03] Obviously,

[05:04] you know, he's emotional and ups

[05:05] there as well.

[05:07] Henry,

[05:08] you know,

[05:08] what's your reaction hearing tha

[05:10] Of course.

[05:10] That's that's the young man

[05:11] who who asked the question

[05:12] right after you.

[05:14] Yeah. Yes, ma'am. Yeah.

[05:16] I think I kind of feel for him

[05:17] a little bit,

[05:17] because I can definitely underst

[05:21] some people

[05:21] might be giving him some backlas

[05:22] just because the sequence of how

[05:24] he articulated his question

[05:26] and then what came immediately a

[05:28] and, you know, I,

[05:29] I, I've had even,

[05:31] you know,

[05:31] thoughts of scenarios of like,

[05:33] oh, maybe this is something that

[05:35] you know,

[05:36] was involved in in sequence and

[05:38] But, I also never left out the f

[05:40] that, hey,

[05:41] it could have just been a coinci

[05:43] And, you know,

[05:44] when I was speaking with the ind

[05:45] prior to,

[05:46] I never felt like

[05:47] she had any hatred for Charlie a

[05:49] I can

[05:50] I can testify

[05:51] he seemed like an ordinary kid

[05:52] who just had, a difference of op

[05:55] And we actually shared a little

[05:57] because my my family,

[05:59] we definitely are all conservati

[06:01] We were different.

[06:03] I got some that are left.

[06:05] Yeah, some that are. Right.

[06:06] My dad's kind of in the milk

[06:08] and so I have to live that

[06:09] I have to deal with that every d

[06:11] And so I understand what he's sa

[06:12] We're all human and

[06:13] we should love each other.

[06:14] I 100, thank you very

[06:16] much for coming on

[06:17] and for talking about all of thi

[06:19] I know it's not easy.

[06:20] And in a moment like this, perha

[06:22] the easiest thing to do

[06:23] is to say nothing.

[06:23] But I really appreciate,

[06:24] you know,

[06:25] everyone does appreciate

[06:26] hearing you talking about it. Th
