Trump ally and conservative pundit Charlie Kirk shot at Utah event [now reported deceased, same date 10SEP2025]

By the time this rumor is disproved four more will take it’s place. They are throwing shit at their own wall so fast it doesn’t even have time to stick.

Well, the part where the actually trans person helped catch him and is working with police should go against that, but I doubt it would have much impact in practice.

Well, it’s in quite a few more mainstream sources now too (places like NY Post and Daily Mail - so rags but not random Xitter posts).

I imagine the major news sources will not report it until/unless confirmed by law enforcement publicly. Right now it’s all sourced to law enforcement leaks and/or Brooke Singman.

It might with moderates, depending on how it’s reported. But it still enables the “transgender activism leads to violence” narrative and those that would prefer transgender people disappear and/or shut up and stop demanding their rights.

Matt Walsh is already posting such crap.

Just because right-wing nutjobs are obsessed with everyone’s sexuality is not a reason that law enforcement would have any interest in talking about such stuff. The only thing we know that is probably true is that a person Robinson was living with had assisted police.

I found the Daily Mail article and it’s just quoting Fox News and the New York Post, and the latter is itself probably just quoting Fox News. And it doesn’t say anything definitive anyway.

The cynic in me thinks they could be extrapolating a picture of a guy with long hair as a transgender person.

I do agree that the right wing is desperate to make some connection to left wing advocacy

Where are all the left wingers celebrating Kirk’s death that the Reich Wing has been masturbating about? I haven’t seen any. I didn’t know who Kirk was while he was alive but from what I’ve read, he was just a right wing nut job with a following. Now the talking heads are spouting the usual bullshit “it’s time for both sides to tone down the rhetoric.” Fuck that shit. Only one side is trying to overthrow democracy, only one side speaks openly about denying “the other” the right to vote, to serve in the military, to marry, etc. If you talk about both sides, you’re legitimizing the extreme right by comparing it to a false image of the left.

Including this guy?

I mean, he’s too woke for them and all that, but transgender?

If his mom was a virgin, then she reproduced through parthenogenesis, meaning Jesus would have had only two X chromosomes since they both must come from Mary… You do the math.

Definitely non-binary,
There is neither male nor female … in Christ Jesus.
Although that might just mean He’s ace.

Just look at him!

That looks like a still from some gay pornographic cartoon.

(Not that there’s anything wrong with that)

Well, he certainly presented as male but, biologically, he could only have been a clone of the Virgin Mary. That means he was born female.

He was also a shit-disturbing influencer with a lot of followers in whom he inculcated suspicion and hatred of the Roman Deep State. The historical Jesus was not the “son of God”, but the preponderance of evidence is that he did exist – part hippie, part anti-establishment radical, Jesus today would meet the same fate as the historical Jesus did more than 2000 years ago, except that crucifixion has gone out of style. He’d probably get lethal injection instead, if he didn’t get shot or lynched first by modern “Christians”.

Nah. Keep the mountain the same size, just carve a tiny face.

Nah. Shot, unarmed, by a prison guard while standing in a church. His crime? Cutting the heads off parking meters (corrupting what should be sacred common ground and turning into it a means of revenue for those in power).

There are quite a few celebrating it on Reddit.

But again, it’s risible and laughable for right-wingers to clutch pearls and moan about this and try to use cancel culture to fire people celebrating this, when they themselves would do the same and more in spades if it were a lefty getting shot.

Last I heard Robinsin was living in his parents’ house, with his parents and possibly younger siblings. I just can’t keep up anymore.

Or hit with a hammer, not that I’m thinking of anyone in particular…

If he was at school, he may well have had his room at his parents’ house as well as his room at the house he was apparently renting near campus.

They’re now saying he lived in a 3 bedroom house with 3 other roommates. The one who talked to police is apparently named Lance Twiggs. It’s not clear if Lance is trans or not, nor whether that’s the person that Robinson was romantically involved with (if he was indeed involved with any of them).
