Condemning this assassination is necessary, but so is reflecting on how political discourse got so dangerous in the first place. Let's fix the system, not just the symptoms.

The American dream nearly died with Charlie Kirk that day—but this resolution shows we fight back with truth, faith, and resilience, not fear.

Honoring life and legacy is one thing; using tragedy to score points is another. Let's keep the focus on healing, not weaponizing grief.

This resolution doesn’t just honor Charlie Kirk—it stands against the rising tide of political violence. If we can’t protect voices like his, what’s left of free speech?

Sure, condemn the assassination—but don’t let it distract from the dangerous ideology that thrives under Kirk’s banner. Patriotism shouldn’t be a shield for extremism.

Violence has no place in politics—no matter who’s targeted or why. Maybe this moment can unite us instead of divide us further.

Kirk was a patriot who championed American values, and this condemnation sends a clear message: violence won’t silence us. The Left should take note.

We mourn any loss of life, but let’s not turn a political assassin into a martyr for the wrong side of history.

Condemning violence is easy; addressing the hate that fuels it is the real work. If we only honor Kirk after death, what about the lives we’ve lost to rhetoric beforehand?
