He was speaking at a a political event on a Utah university campus this afternoon when he was shot in the neck. It was reportedly just one shot. At first it was said that his condition wasn't known. Then it was described as critical and eventually "grave". Trump posted several minutes ago referring to Kirk in the past tense and now he has announced that he has died.
What a shame. Even worse his wife and two young children were in attendance at the event. Political violence is disgusting and wrong and awful. Kirk was just 31.

So, it is official now. I'm just sick. I ate a late lunch, now my gut hurts thinking about it.

The GOP cheered when Paul Pelosi was attacked. The said nothing when that Minnesota House rep was murdered. It really shows the differences between parties and belief systems when you see so many Democrats condemning the assassination, wishing the best for his family, etc.

@NJChicaa — no suspects, no arrests, and yet all the kids they’re interviewing on the Salt Lake City TV station I’m watching “know” it was a liberal. 
But what do facts matter… I mean, on this recent trip I went to a place destroyed in 1921 because nobody wanted to check facts before acting.

@FourWalls Supposedly the guy who "supposedly" hit Trump in the ear was a disgruntled Republican. Like I said I will be interested to see the details about whoever the finally determine was the assassin.

Sometimes I'm ashamed to be a US citizen when someone does something this horrific.

This type of action is just so wrong. This is not good and our country is on the edge already. We didn’t need this to happen.
