The FBI’s Salt Lake City office has added an online form to its website where the public can report information about Kirk’s killing on a Utah college campus.

The form says the FBI is “seeking information regarding the shooting at Utah Valley University that took place on September 10, 2025.”

It asks the person submitting the form to include their name and contact information and then there’s a section for information about the incident.

That's good, thank you!

What would be even better would be a nationally televised press conference.

Has there been one yet?

Anyone who has not watched any of his Y/T videos should do so. Amazing debates that he has with college kids. He is so knowledgeable and is able to discuss any subject. I think that the kids really love trying to stump him. I haven't seen one that can, though.

I can tell you that I am truly stunned. They haven't found the shooter. He was lying in wait atop a building 200 yards away, I believe. Charlie was shot with a high powered rifle and didn't have a chance. I believe this was very well planned. I sure hope that this get this guy. There was absolutely no reason for such violence.

I don't know how someone like Charlie will ever be replaced. He leaves behind a wife and two very young children. :'(

JMO.

Bbm.
So sad.
I think a civilized debate is healthy, & a very good thing !!!!

There was one earlier this evening.
IMO.

They haven't, but his team wouldn't have been robust enough to have that kind of footprint. Their focus would be on the area around him, as that's where almost all threats are going to come from. They were looking close range as opposed to what this wound up being.

You'd need presidential level security to make that area safe.

After today, there will be no more open-air political events or rallies in America.

You can write that down.

Never mind. I just did.

I have truly enjoyed watching the debates between Charlie and the college students.

I see what you mean, but I doubt someone 100-200 yds away could hear any of that. Unless college kids are a lot quieter these days. I was just relating a word for word description of the dialogue at Kirk's event, revealing the flavor.

I think the flavor is mental illness, which imo we all agree these mass shooters and assassins; murderers, are me mentally ill.

Thanks for the link, @NuttMegg .

I've listened and re-listened to what was said and it sounded like C.K. was responding to the final question which was about gang violence in general ?
And the answer to the red bolded was, "Too many" referring to the person saying there had been five shootings.

Hunter Brown appeared to agree by saying "Five , I'll give you that (number of )."
Five shootings by any person or group is too many and I think most would agree.

It's like the Star Tribune was not understanding the question and taking Charlie's answer out of context.
Regardless, any murder by a lone killer or a mass shooter is too many.
Imo.

Below is a another link to the question asked and answered :

Charlie Kirk's brave final words before he was assassinated in Utah

Charlie Kirk shared a final sentiment tackling a controversial topic just as he was assassinated at Utah Valley University on Wednesday afternoon.

www.dailymail.co.uk

I think what the person was getting at is the fact that there have probably been hundreds of mass shootings in the past ten years, yet only 5 had been carried out by transgender individuals.

You just put up those bulletproof panels like they did for Obama's inaug., and which DJT used after that Pennsylvannia attempt.

Good points Tutter and NuttMegg,

Honestly though, 200 yards away?

How many college kids do we know that have that kind of skill?

This feels so targeted and professional.

.... quite possibly, Military-trained, with extensive experience too.

Someone that pro..., they would really know how to "disappear" ..., I'm alarmed. I usually have total confidence in LE.

What if this person never gets caught?


(MOO, pure speculation)

The whole point is face to face engagement. If you’re going to take those measures you might as well do it inside.

Rest in peace, Charlie !

I feel for his wife, as the baby will now grow up without ever knowing his dad, and the three year old is old enough to remember story time with dad and maybe meals and snack times, and she may even ask 'when is he coming back home', not understanding it's forever ?
And although I don't know much about his parents, he was 31 so they may not be that old yet ?
Children are supposed to outlive their parents.
So brutal, senseless and unfair.
Imo.

Respectively, the attempted assassination on Trump didn't stop these events and neither will this one, and rightfully so: We all have our right to celebrate our beliefs in the US of A, no matter who tries to silence Americans. We're allowed to whine and moan about anything we want, so help us God.

I'm trying to figure out just exactly how a single word of this is helpful to the public.

"There's this person out there that we'd like to talk to, but we don't where he is and we aren't going to tell you his name. And we're probably wrong about this guy, like we were about the other one, so there's that, too."

Here’s why authorities may be having a hard time finding Kirk’s killer, according to a chief CNN analyst - CNN
<snipped>
According to CNN Chief Law Enforcement and Intelligence Analyst John Miller, the shooter’s planning, skill and execution may be complicating the search.

[...]

“This is the kind of person who would have planned to get in silently, try to be invisible, take this shot, accomplish the mission, take the gun with them and leave little evidence behind which is why I think they’re having a very difficult time getting started on this.”

[...]

“This is someone who knew exactly what they were doing and is probably known to others, and this may be working to the advantage of law enforcement,” Miller said. “As someone who has a long history in shooting, this wasn’t an amateur.”

These are just police sources, and not a statement provided by law enforcement. It’s encouraging they have someone they’re looking for.

The Turning Point USA organization that Charlie founded has asked that social media and news media not post the moment when he was shot, out of respect for his family and loved ones. Other MSM have asked for the same thing. And if they have already posted the video on social media, then they are asked to remove it. I hope that requested is respected. No one needs to see that.

Unfortunately, this stuff is going to be out there forever. I can’t think of a single fatal event captured up close like this, with so many different videos and angles.

Excluding 911.

Just saw it online, I'm going to go listen to it now, thank you!

The same guy John @CNN who earlier reported there was a POI who was "25ish" and got it spectacularly wrong. Lol
