I feel sick. It is sickening that Charlie Kirk, a nationally known political figure, came to Utah to speak and was shot and killed.
I didn’t agree with much of Kirk’s politics, but I will never agree that it is OK to hurt or kill someone because I don’t think like they do.
We either believe in fundamental civil rights, such as the freedom of speech, or we don’t.
We either believe in the value of human life, or we don’t.
We are either decent human beings or we are not human.
