It seems surreal to write about Turning Point USA founder and Salem Radio Network talk show host Charlie Kirk being dead, but he is, the result of an apparent targeted assassination during an outdoor TPUSA event held at Utah Valley University earlier in the day on Wednesday.
Kirk, who was married and had two young children, was only 31 years old.
As of this writing, the suspect is still at large.
Disgustingly, the ghouls in the mainstream media were doing their thing as news broke of the shooting, but before President Trump announced Kirk's death. The tone and tenor of the "reporting" and commentary seemed to suggest they believed Kirk brought this on himself.
Among them was MSNBC anchor Katy Tur:

Early on, leftist loon/MSNBC political analyst Matthew Dowd speculated that maybe a Kirk supporter had shot him by accident as part of a "celebration":
🚨OMG — MSNBC just said the shooter might have been "a supporter shooting their gun off in celebration."

WHAT?!
The Fake News is blaming MAGA already. Shameful. pic.twitter.com/BEOP3NlgFD
Immediately after that, Dowd despicably ventured into "skirt was too short" territory, claiming that "[Kirk's] been one of the most especially divisive younger figures in this, who is constantly sort of pushing this sort of hate speech, sort of aimed at certain groups. And I always go back to, hateful thoughts lead to hateful words, which often then to hateful actions."

Then there was MSNBC politics reporter Allan Smith:
[Kirk has] certainly been front and center on a lot of the more divisive social and cultural issues that have driven the MAGA movement. I mean, you talk about trans rights, a lot of issues around racial justice. He has taken the sort of contrarian, more MAGA approach to a lot of these issues. And he has, you know, he's been pretty inflammatory in his rhetoric throughout the years, and that's how he's been able to build such a huge platform.

Further on Kirk, MSNBC politics reporter Allen Smith decries:

Just depraved. Absolutely depraved and sick. I wonder if they have any regrets about what they said now that he has, sadly, passed away. Scratch that. I don't wonder at all.
Please remember to keep Kirk's family, friends, and our country in your thoughts and prayers.
