A generation leader in the conservative movement was lost on Wednesday, when Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, was murdered during a live event at a University of Utah, the latter in a result of political violence that America tore apart.
For millions of Americans, especially the young people, Kirk was an inspiration whose message of patriotism and self -reliance seemed like a clear light in our cynical era of national self -hatred. But for millions of others this made him a very dangerous threat.

When Kirk founded Tpusa, it was not possible in 2012 that a conservative could walk at university campuses, those most high bastions of the distant left, and not just creating a crowd, but creating a movement.
At that time, a young conservative was almost an oxymoron. Yet here was a walking, talking Alex P. Keaton with a robber humor and a finger on the wrist of how many Americans really felt in the university, how frustrated they really were. He was a happy warrior, who meant those with whom he disagreed in good faith and decency.

Just as Donald Trump’s meetings would be a few years later, the TPUSA events of Kirk were an energetic party for people who banished for so long, had silenced, silenced and cow. The child from Chicago brought a Swagger in their step.
On the left, and let’s be honest here, for a large part of the democratic party and much of the regular media, the success of Charlie was unforgivable. They spent more than ten years painting him as a racist, a fool and ultimately as a real, real fascist.
That is why Charlie Kirk is dead today.
How often, time and time again, have rational people on the left to stop their dehuman rhetoric about conservatives? Promises were made to weaken after Trump was shot in Butler, Pennsylvania, but it has only become worse.
This week the New York Times ran a column with blood-red images that scored: “Stop doing this as if this is normal,” with regard to the Trump administration. In other words, telling their readers that we are about to fascism, if we are not there yet, thanks to Trump and Kirk.
What do these people expect to happen if they use their megaphone to tell their audience that people like Kirk literally destroy the United States?
The crazy and malignant madmen who committed this crime undoubtedly thought he was saving America, because that is what the lying, left -wing news has fed him for ten years.
Now you can prepare for another Tour of Democrats and their Feckless allies who call this a terrible tragedy and decipher political violence. But they seem unable to stop the mean rhetoric to which they seem addicted.
The left also knows that this terrible murder will have a horrifying effect. I have friends and loved ones who regularly appear at TPUSA events. Is it safe for them to do this in the future? Would I want them to do that afterwards?
Make no mistake, the strong conservative movement that Kirk has founded is brave. It has always been, and they will rise and speak the truth, even if they know that they too have a target on them.
But it shouldn’t be like that.
At this point it is not enough that the liberal media simply change its roads or invent the rhetoric. No, they have to repent completely from the years that they have demonstrated half of the country and can get on conservatives.
They must acknowledge that by painting those who simply disagree with them about political policy as inhumane monsters, they tear apart the tissue of the nation they claim to protect.

If they cannot do that, then Americans must exclude them because, just like a bully in an insulting relationship, the liberal media cannot be trusted.
The first martyr of the Christian faith was St. Stephen, who was killed because He would not abandon the Lord Jesus Christ. Nowadays Charlie Kirk can be spoken in the same breath, not only as an American martyr, but as a Christian one.
We will never know how many restless children who felt abandoned in the world of materialism and telephones and never ending genera, have found their way to Jesus through Charlie Kirk. But God knows, and it was really at work, by His servant.
If there is some comfort for Kirk’s family, his friends, his movement and his country, it is now being praised in the hands of the highest alienation of all events, for whom Charlie was a precious agent of good.
